She's Albanian and proud of it, she's multi-talented, she's a singer and she might as well be a model- oh wait, she already is! Just like Dua Lipa!

Meet Zhaklina, who on top of everything I just mentioned is a Doula too. Say what? Huh?? It's okay, i had no clue what a "Doula" was either, until Zhaklina broke down what it's like being kinda sorta like a "pregnancy coach", while balancing out everything else she does or is doing like and plans to do!!

Doula Lipa ft. Zhaklina Pt. 1 | EP 110

A hospital lost power in Los Angeles because of Hurricane Hilary. This led to a woman giving birth in the dark. Learn more about it on This Morning with Gordon Deal.

Woman gives birth in the dark after hospital loses power

You wake up in a hospital after a traumatic event. Grief, anxiety, pain, loneliness, heartbreak, or perhaps just a deep longing, moves through you. So you get up. You leave the hospital, and from here, everything is for your ears only: A private journey, a ritual, memories of something that once were - or never came to be. 
A place to experience, to leave, or return to, whenever needed.

Listen - ears open - eyes closed <3

lysløs | a sound ritual for grief and memory

This song is a deeply philosophical and spiritual exploration of existence, transcendence, and human connection. With poetic lyrics and a soaring melody, the song delves into themes of mortality, eternity, and the idea that some individuals are born with a special purpose or connection to the universe, symbolized by the powerful metaphor of an "ocean eye". The result is a hauntingly beautiful and thought-provoking listening experience that invites reflection and contemplation.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
The heavens blow their trumpets
For the saber-toothed sun in the sky
My cousin came by horseback
To be present (for the event) for my transcendence 

[Pre-Chorus]
You fit in my hand
It's black at the ends
When you need are a friend
I'll be with you til the end 

[Chorus]
You were born with an ocean eye
You were born synchronized
You were born in the end-of-time
Now you're alive and I'm excited 

[Verse 2]
I been told I see visions
That I think that I'm blessed but I'm not
I'm just knowin' how life's gonna be
When we meet in eternity 

[Pre-Chorus]
Now she fills up my hands
It's black at the ends
If she never lets go (*chuckle*)
I've done all that I can 

[Chorus X2]
You were born with an ocean eye
You were born synchronized
You were born in the end-of-time
Now you're alive and I'm excited

Songwriting has been a lifelong passion for me, dating back to elementary school when I first began crafting stories, poems, and eventually lyrics. As a former drummer in various bands, I always relied on others to bring my words to life musically. However, after a long hiatus from drumming, I decided to take the leap and learn to compose music to accompany my lyrics. Through classes and dedication, I've embarked on a new journey, breathing fresh life into old lyrics and penning new ones. You'll find a mix of older and newer works here, for the lyrics. 

Music has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories is being completely entranced by 'The Little Drummer Boy' as a very young child. There was something about the rhythm and the melody that just captivated me. I must have played it a thousand times, wearing the record out, and from that moment on, I was hooked. I knew I wanted to be a drummer, and to create that magic for others. 

But I was too young then, and of course I couldn't afford a drum set just yet. So, I turned to writing as a way to express myself. As I mentioned above, I started with stories, then poems, and eventually, lyrics. I found that writing was not only a way to tap into my creativity, but also a way to process my emotions and experiences. 

As I grew older, my love for music only deepened. I realized that music has this incredible power to transport us to different times and places, to evoke emotions and memories that we thought were long forgotten. It's a universal language that can bring people together like nothing else can. 

For me, writing lyrics is a cathartic experience. It's a way for me to tap into my emotions, to process the world around me, and to create something that I hope will resonate with others. And when I hear my words come to life in a song, it's truly magical. It's a feeling that never gets old, and it's what keeps me coming back to music time and time again. 

I love many genres of music and artists of many genres. And if you listen to some of my songs, you will find that I like to make songs of different genres as well as mix different genres into each song. One of my all-time favorite bands is Evanescence, and I have made a lot of songs where I have tried my best to emulate that sound. 

Now, I have recently started experimenting with new sounds. I never heard of glitch beats before I took music classes, and now I'm fascinated with the sound, so I have been experimenting with glitch beats recently. 

I hope you enjoy some of my songs. And thanks so much to everyone who has been listening so far. I truly appreciate it. I welcome constructive feedback to help me grow as an artist, and I appreciate your support. ❤️

BTW If you follow me, I will ALWAYS follow back. If I like your music, I will follow you, but if you don't follow me back within a week or two, I will unfollow you most of the time. The same goes if I see someone listening to my music, I WILL follow them, however, if they don't follow back within a week or two, I'll unfollow them.  😘
