"Night Shift" is a sultry noir confession turned into sound. Cassandre leads the Blister Sisters through a smoky late-night atmosphere, where shadows, secrets, and desire collide under the harsh light of an interrogation lamp. Mixing vintage film-noir elegance with raw grindhouse grit, the track feels like a lost soundtrack to a forgotten pulp classic — dangerous, hypnotic, and impossible to resist.

Into The Craddle Of The Void

Smother The Stillness

Smother the Stillness

A moody, atmospheric closer with Smashing Pumpkins DNA—shimmering guitars, tape-delayed vocals, and a star-lit bass pulse. “Pale Halo” drifts like a last conversation in the car park, then opens into a cathartic chorus that still feels intimate. Perfect for indie/alt nights, study/creative focus lists, and cinematic moods.

Pale Halo

A slow-burn that erupts—Guns N’ Roses tension, Aerosmith soul. “Cold Blooded Love” smolders with minor-key piano, bluesy bends, and a serpentine vocal before the guitars bite and the drums go widescreen. The final chorus lets the lead rip while the BVs lift the hook skyward. For rock ballad, dark romance, and late-night lists.

Cold Blooded Love

A widescreen, Smashing Pumpkins-esque psychedelic journey. “Garden of Ghosts” layers fuzz, chorus-drenched leads, and mellotron swells over a hypnotic pulse. The lyric drifts through memory and myth; the chorus blooms with choir-like stacks and a melodic, singing lead guitar. A dream sequence bridge dissolves into a tidal final chorus. Ideal for alt/psych rock, night-drive, and cinematic playlists.

Garden of Ghosts

A gritty Nirvana-leaning grunge cut with quiet–loud dynamics, “Wires IN MY HEAD” threads angst and melody through fuzzy guitars and a raw, ribbon-hot vocal. Verses whisper over clean arpeggios and bass drone; choruses slam with blown-speaker distortion and crash cymbals. A feedback-drenched middle eight, then a final chorus collapse deliver catharsis. For alt/grunge curators seeking 90s DNA refreshed with present-tense urgency.

Wires in MY HEAD

[Verse 1]  
Moonlight fades, the fire dies,  
Lunar ashes paint the skies.  
Every memory burns away,  
Still the smoke decides to stay.  

[Pre-Chorus]  
From the dark, we rise again,  
Ashes glow where stars have been.  

[Chorus]  
Lunar ashes, drifting free,  
Carry pieces left of me.  
Through the night, the silence stays,  
Lunar ashes guide the way.  

[Verse 2]  
Footprints vanish in the sand,  
Ashes slip through open hands.  
Every spark is all we own,  
Every ember leads us home.  

[Bridge]  
Even when the night is cold,  
Ashes turn to light of gold.  

[Final Chorus]  
Lunar ashes, drifting free,  
Carry pieces left of me.  
Through the night, the silence stays,  
Lunar ashes guide the way.  

Lunar Ashes

TRACK REVIEW

“EYES” is a bold reimagining of one of Dean R. Chandler’s most powerful tracks, written in 1993 and first appearing on his 2014 double album TiME MACHiNE – Reflecting Shattered Dreams. Here, Chandler breathes new life into the song with a modern AI-assisted production that transforms it into a cinematic modern rock experience.

The track feels heavier, sharper, and more atmospheric than its original incarnation. Guitars grind and surge with a gritty edge, the rhythm section drives like a pulse of paranoia, and the vocal sits front and center, carrying both anger and vulnerability. AI doesn’t dull the emotion—it amplifies it, giving “EYES” an almost theatrical quality, as if scored for a psychological rock opera.

Lyrically, the song remains as potent as ever. Themes of love, betrayal, and obsession cut like the knife mentioned in the pre-chorus, while the haunting refrain “It’s in her eyes and her arms and her heart” echoes like an accusation that can’t be forgotten. Where the 2014 version was raw and reflective, this 2025 version is darker, cinematic, and unapologetically intense.

By revisiting “EYES” through the lens of modern tools, Chandler proves that AI can be more than a gimmick—it can be a collaborator, reshaping memory into something new. This track isn’t just a remix; it’s a reinvention, bridging past and future while reaffirming Chandler’s reputation as an artist unafraid to innovate.

EYES
[Verse 1]
This is my story, my disease
This is an anger, a hunger that feeds
This is a new world that I don't know
This is a secret, a secret that shows

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been in love, I've played the game
I've been up to come crashing down again
I've heard your rumours and I've heard the lies
But my God, I didn't realize

[Chorus]
What are you looking for?
Now you walk out the door
Tell me your reason for leaving
I should have known before
I've heard it all, I'm sure
It's in her eyes and her arms and her heart
It's in her eyes and her arms and her heart

[Verse 2]
(Yeah) You talk of love and now you talk about pain
You're telling me you've played in every kind of game
You think you've been around and seen it all before
I'm telling you you've seen nothing at all

[Pre-Chorus]
You're all mixed up, watching TV
You're a girl caught in a fantasy
So it's about time that you realize
This game called love cuts like a knife

[Chorus]
What are you looking for?
Now you walk out the door
Tell me your reason for leaving
I should have known before
I've heard it all, I'm sure
It's in her eyes and her arms and her heart
It's in her eyes and her arms and her heart
It's in her eyes, arms, heart
It's in her eyes and her arms and her heart

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
What are you looking for?
Now you walk out the door
Tell me your reason for leaving
I should have known before
I've heard it all, I'm sure
It's in her eyes and her arms and her heart
It's in her eyes and her arms and her heart
What are you looking for?
Now you walk out the door
Tell me your reason for leaving
I should have known before, because I know the score
It's in her eyes and her arms and her heart
It's in her eyes and her arms and her heart
It's in her eyes, arms, heart
It's in her eyes and her arms and her heart

Dean R. Chandler 1993

Eyes

Verse 1
Silver roads beneath the stars,
Chasing echoes from afar.
Every dream was tied in flames,
We were bound by starlit chains.

Pre-Chorus
Sky is heavy, hearts are near,
Every whisper keeps me here.

Chorus
Starlit chains, holding tight,
Guide me through the endless night.
Every spark, every flame,
Keeps me bound in starlit chains.

Verse 2
Broken halos in the dark,
Still your fire lights the spark.
Every shadow sings your name,
We are tied in starlit chains.

Pre-Chorus
Sky is heavy, hearts are near,
Every whisper keeps me here.

Chorus
Starlit chains, holding tight,
Guide me through the endless night.
Every spark, every flame,
Keeps me bound in starlit chains.

Bridge
If the night should tear apart,
Stars will mend the fragile heart.
Even when the morning reigns,
I’ll be bound in starlit chains.

Final Chorus
Starlit chains, holding tight,
Guide me through the endless night.
Every spark, every flame,
Keeps me bound in starlit chains.

Starlit Chains

Verse 1
Laughter echoes through the night,  
Painted masks in candlelight.  
Every smile hides decay,  
Shadow carnival’s on display.  

Pre-Chorus  
Step inside, the show begins,  
Dancing shadows, painted sins.  

Chorus  
Shadow carnival, take my hand,  
Twisted lights across the land.  
Every secret, every fall,  
We belong to the shadow carnival.  

Verse 2  
Broken mirrors, crimson eyes,  
Every whisper full of lies.  
Strings are pulling, hearts obey,  
Shadow carnival takes the day.  

Pre-Chorus  
Step inside, the show begins,  
Dancing shadows, painted sins.  

Chorus  
Shadow carnival, take my hand,  
Twisted lights across the land.  
Every secret, every fall,  
We belong to the shadow carnival.  

Bridge  
When the curtains start to fall,  
You will hear the final call.  
Every mask will fade away,  
Shadow carnival will stay.  

Final Chorus  
Shadow carnival, take my hand,  
Twisted lights across the land.  
Every secret, every fall,  
We belong to the shadow carnival.  

Shadow Carnival

Créé en 2014, il se dédie à la promotion d'artistes et de projets musicaux ancrés dans des univers sombres, immersifs et narratifs.

WISHMASTER
Formé en 2007, ce groupe de metal symphonique et progressif se distingue par son travail de mise en scène sonore: chaque morceau se veut le chapitre d'une épopée inspirée de mythologies, de légendes ou de contes fantastiques.

ANITA FINNEGAN
Elle incarne le versant brut et émotionnel de Wishmaster. Sa voix, tour à tour puissante et vulnérable, est capable de transmettre l'urgence d'une bataille ou la détresse d'un personnage en quête de rédemption.
Parallèlement à ses activités avec Wishmaster, Anita développe une carrière solo où elle explore une facette plus intimiste et personnelle de son univers musical, mêlant folk, pop, rock, metal ou dark ambient.

CASSANDRE (DESROSIERS)
Soprano accomplie, elle apporte à Wishmaster une dimension éthérée et aérienne. Sa maîtrise des registres élevés crée des harmonies lumineuses en contraste avec les riffs métalliques, renforçant l'impact dramatique et la profondeur narrative des compositions.
Sous le nom de scène CASSANDRE, elle se lance à son tour en solo: son premier single est annoncé pour très bientôt, promettant de prolonger l'esthétique sombre et poétique qu'on lui connaît au sein du groupe.

Welcome to Logical Miracle, a project where a lifelong dream meets the cutting edge of technology, brought to life by two passionate creators, one a musician and songwriter, the other an edu tech enthusiast who turns ideas into reality.

Like many, my journey started with big dreams as a child. I imagined myself as a musical genius, learning to play the recorder and later moving on to the violin and guitar. Back then, I had no idea how challenging the music industry could be. As life moved on, new adventures like jobs, holidays, and eventually starting a family took over, and my musical dream slowly faded into the background.

But the story didn’t end there. Over the past 40 years, technology has evolved in incredible ways, creating opportunities that were once unimaginable. Social media has reconnected us with old friends and memories, while AI and music software have revolutionised how we create and share music. The music industry, once an exclusive club, has had to adapt, leaving space for new voices to emerge.

This is where Logical Miracle was born, a collaboration between my love for music and the technical genius of my partner. For years, I wrote poems, not realising they were songs in waiting. Today, with the help of AI, music production software, and my tech-savvy partner, we’ve brought those words to life. The dream of working in a big studio isn’t necessary anymore; with the right tools and expertise, we’re able to create professional-quality music right from home.

Logical Miracle is the result of this collaboration. It’s not just a musical project, it’s a testament to the power of dreams and the possibilities that technology brings. What started as a simple idea has blossomed into something much bigger, a dream shared and fulfilled. Now, it’s time for our music to be heard.

So, whether you’re here to discover something new or to support two dreamers who have turned their passions into reality, we hope you enjoy the music of Logical Miracle. Your feedback means the world to us, if you like what you hear, let us know. And if not, that’s okay too, just be kind in your comments. Either way, we’ll keep creating, inspired by the knowledge that our partnership and technology have made this dream possible.

Thanks for listening, and welcome to the world of Logical Miracle.

About

I’m Dean R. Chandler — a London based songwriter, recording artist, and storyteller. My music is rooted in a lifelong search for meaning, weaving together themes of love, loss, faith, alien contact, and humanity’s future.

My upcoming double concept album Human Odyssey (set for release in January 2027) is the culmination of decades of writing and reflection. It’s a narrative journey that begins with a search for God and ends with an encounter with extraterrestrial intelligence — exploring not only what it means to be human, but also where we might be heading as a species. Musically, it draws inspiration from the epic storytelling of Jeff Wayne’s War of the Worlds, the synth-driven edge of Gary Numan, and the emotional depth of artists like Tori Amos and Chris de Burgh.

I previously released Time Machine – Reflecting Shattered Dreams (2014) and continue to revisit my archive of songs written across 35 years, reimagining them with today’s tools and sounds. Some pieces remain intimate and acoustic, while others expand into dark rock, industrial, or orchestral landscapes — but all are connected by a focus on emotional honesty and cinematic storytelling.

Beyond music, I’m fascinated by the intersection of creativity and technology. I’ve been experimenting with AI-driven composition and production to bring old demos to life and to spark entirely new works. For me, these tools are not replacements for human artistry but extensions of it — ways of unlocking stories and emotions that otherwise might have remained hidden.

At its heart, my work is about connection: to the past, to the future, and to the unseen mysteries of existence. Music, for me, isn’t just entertainment — it’s a chronicle of transformation, a conversation between spirit, science, and sound.
