Commissioned by the AHRC research project, INTO THE FOREST, led by Dr Eleanor Barraclough. 
Created for Light Up Trails and exhibited at Sir Harold Hillier Gardens

This unique project was the result of a creative partnership with the historian, author and BBC presenter, Dr Eleanor Barraclough. 
'Song Of The Pine' integrated the cycle of forest ecology with the fireside storytelling traditions of the Vikings and Anglo Saxons, as seen through the life cycle of a pine tree, the original Christmas tree.
Atmospheric and emotional, the piece drew on the audience’s own ancient and instinctive response to the primeval supremacy of ice and fire and aimed to reconnect them to the fullness of forest life.
Using a combination of specially written poetry by Karen, the piece fused modern technology in the form of specially designed foliage projection and a 5.1 surround sound system with traditional storytelling, creating a compelling work suitable for an all age 21st century audience.

‘Song Of The Pine’ was seen by 70,000 people and the piece was very well received, and was voted the ‘Audience’s Favourite’ by the visitors on the trail that year.

“Karen had clearly done extensive research into my work and used that foundation to craft a resonant, immersive experience. She composed a remarkable sound design that felt both ancient and vividly modern. Being recorded and directed by her as a narrator felt completely natural.” - Dr. Eleanor Barraclough

Song Of The Pine

Song Of The Pine ("It Sang" - excerpt)


Finally - after months of a lot of heartache, countless struggles and challenges, turmoil that this work has brought me - it is finally here, Idyllic and yet to come for 7 woodwind ensamble, that was written in my Erasmus year in its drafts and even performed as one movement work in my composition concert in Tallinn, but ultimately found its full performance and completed as a two movement cycle recorded on my return in Riga. 

This track is filled with deep sorrow, pure light, emotions, turmoil and everything that happened to me through its writing process - it is made up of two movement that contradict yet compliment each other beautifully in sense that they each tell their own story. 1st movement is slow, dragged out, stretched and complex filled with harmonic structures that I have not used up before and with new thought process that started in its writing - while 2nd movement is fast paced, quick, ever so changing and unpredictable in nature yet keeping that lingering longing sound from the movement before. This song is all about acceptance, warmth, light and constant change and in these past months I have endured a lot of it, so I am grateful that this piece is finally with me and I can listen to it in full scope despite all the background issues that surrounded it.

Idyllic and yet to come

this is the last time i edit this i swear, hope you enjoy hehe :3

Virtual RIot - Death comes for us all (but we dont care about it) (Pixel Lionheart flip)

The sun’s waking up stretching wide in the sky
Birds are gossiping I hear them nearby
A breeze like a whisper tugs at my hair
I’m dancing with shadows I don’t have a care

Oh the world’s in bloom and I’m just here
Smiling wide with nothing to fear
Grass underfoot and a song in the air
Springtime bliss I’ve got time to spare

A cloud drifts by like a lazy balloon
I hum to myself a carefree tune
The trees wear green like a brand new coat
Life’s a river I’m just a boat

Oh the world’s in bloom and I’m just here
Smiling wide with nothing to fear
Grass underfoot and a song in the air
Springtime bliss I’ve got time to spare

No clocks no plans no need to explain
Just me and the sky a runaway train
I’ll chase the sun till it dips out of view
Then dance with the stars and the moonlight too

Oh the world’s in bloom and I’m just here
Smiling wide with nothing to fear
Grass underfoot and a song in the air
Springtime bliss I’ve got time to spare

Time to Spare

Sentimental reflection of what we had.......

Delusion

эмбиент с мягким пианино, словно мерцающий свет в глубокой тишине. Музыка, которая погружает в пространство покоя и бесконечности.

Polar Night

A timeless meeting between past and present.
I revisited "Spring" from Antonio Vivaldi, reimagined by Max Richter, bringing a new light to this masterpiece.

✨ Hope you enjoy the journey.

Spring

**Seasons in Nebraska**

[Verse 1]
A summer humid and hot.
Drops of sweat were falling from my head.
All I knew was to keep cool...
...and not being a fool.

A fall shining as gold.
Like my heart enlightened not cold.
You gave me a reason to keep...
...dreaming and live on.

[Chorus]
It was a year full of days and nights. 
Time blew up my mind and it felt right.
Call it destiny or call it fate.
All I know...
it were the four...
...Seasons in Nebraska!

[Verse 2]
A winter freezing as ice.
It nearly felt like the paradise.
You are the one who was gone...
...but you made my heart warm.

A spring full of colors and light.
Back again, a smile full and bright.
I was waiting for you my lovely!
It was no letdown, you got me.
 
[Chorus]
It was a year full of days and nights. 
Time blew up my mind and it felt right.
Call it destiny or call it fate.
All I know...
it were the four...
...Seasons in Nebraska!

[Interlude]
My heart was beating and the things were frightening.
Away from home I learned to live on my own.
But then I met youuu...
...you to whom I’m singing this song.

[Chorus]
It was a year full of days and nights. 
Time blew up my mind and it felt right.
Call it destiny or call it fate.
All I know...
it were the four...
...Seasons in Nebraska!

[Ending]
It were the four...
...Seasons in Nebraska!
It were the four...
...Seasons in Nebraska!

A spring city-pop song about love that blooms quietly like the first snow.

“Awaken Spring” is a luminous ode to renewal, fertility, and the stirring of life beneath the thawing earth. With flowing folk-inspired melodies, airy vocals, and the gentle rhythm of melting snow and soft rains, the song captures the essence of Spring’s awakening. It evokes the damp grass, the call of birds, the skitter of chipmunks, and the first blossoms pushing through the soil. Both intimate and enchanted, it celebrates hope, love, and the promise of warmer days ahead.

Lyrics:
Dripping snow, the rivers sing,
Earthworms rise, and life takes wing.
Chipmunks skitter, green breaks through,
Springtime stirs; the world is new.

Awaken, Spring! The air is clear,
Awaken, Spring! Your song we hear.
Awaken, Spring! The sun appears,
Awaken, Spring! The time is here.

Thunder rolls, the soft rains fall,
Grass grows damp, the robins call.
Hearts are quickened, love takes flame,
Hope and play will come again.

Awaken, Spring! The air is clear,
Awaken, Spring! Your song we hear.
Awaken, Spring! The sun appears,
Awaken, Spring! The time is here.

Fertile earth, renew, renew.
Rising light, we call to you.
Blessing flows through budding green,
Awaken, Spring! Awaken, Spring!

Awaken, Spring! The air is clear,
Awaken, Spring! Your song we hear.
Awaken, Spring! The sun appears,
Awaken, Spring! The time is here.

Tell the world a little bit about yourself. The longer the better. 

I (34m) have been searching for a lady to call my own for 34 years now and I gotta say it is rough being a fat, ugly, unemployed, uneducated, loser in the modern dating game.

I hear from older guys all the time talking about how easy it used to be for the unproductive too get female affection in the past and to be honest I envy them a lot, it seems like the standards are ultra high for women these days cause I do my best to shower once a week, I buy new clothes occasionally at like goodwill or something, and I brush my teeth sometimes, and on top of it all I do 5-10 pushups at night three times a week.

Apparently for women this is just simply not enough and I don’t understand why; I thought my lack of success may have come from being not approaching females enough so I started looking in the following locations (bars, game nights, Kroger, gym ((will never go there again)), anime conventions, gynecologist clinic, etc). It seems to me that maybe being a fat, unemployed, uneducated, loser like myself may just be being held back by the unreasonably high standards of modern women and is of no way my fault.

I do plan on moving out of moms basement soon and maybe that’ll help me but I’m moving in with my dad so I’ll have to see I can bring women over though when I asked my mom that question she laughed at me.

Girls please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please go out with me 🥺.
