Kiss the Setting Sun
Lyrics by Karel Daniels and David Sanchez
Music by David Sanchez

We’re taking a vacation
Gonna cruise the Caribbean Sea
Nothing but the open air is where we wanna be
Traveling light on a chartered flight
From Miami F-L-A
We’ve been working so damn hard
Now it’s time for us to play

Ten minutes to touchdown
I’m looking out from my window seat
Turquoise  blue
As far as the eye can see

Paradise here we come 
I'll be grinnin' until my face is numb
A bucket of beer, a bottle of rum
A couple pirates on the run 
My baby and me we’re gonna have big fun
We'll be sippin' and sailin' 'til the day is done, and then
We'll kiss the setting sun

On the west coast of the islands
The water’s calm and smooth
Tranquility, my girl and me
On a sailboat for two
We’ll find a balmy bay somewhere 
Where no one ever goes
Up on deck we’ll catch some rays
Go skinny dipping? Well, I suppose

Five minutes to touchdown
We’ll be swaying to the island beat 
Turquoise blue
As far as the eye can see

Paradise here we come
I'll be grinnin’ until my face is numb
A bucket of beer, a bottle of rum
A couple pirates on the run
My baby and me we're gonna have big fun
We'll be sippin’ and sailin' ’til the day is done, and then
We’ll kiss the setting sun

Paradise here we come
I'll be grinnin’ until my face is numb
A bucket of beer, a bottle of rum
A couple pirates on the run
My baby and me we're gonna have big fun
We'll be sippin’ and sailin' ’til the day is done, and then
We’ll kiss the setting sun 
And then we’ll kiss the setting sun

Kiss The Setting Sun

I'm fully aware that this sounds like a mario kart track.

Really All I Need

"Bordellmamma" är en surrealistisk och gränsöverskridande komposition som djärvt kombinerar traditionella hawaiianska musikelement med explicit repetitiv text i ett avantgardistiskt ljudlandskap. Produktionen bygger på en fascinerande kontrast mellan fridfulla hawaiianska instrument – ukulele, steel drums, slack-key gitarr – och provokativa, repetitiva texter som verkar fungera mer som ljudobjekt än som traditionell berättelse. Låtens struktur följer ett hypnotiskt mönster där samma verser upprepas genom olika instrumentala arrangemang, från lugna havsvågsljud till intensiva tribala trumsekvenser, vilket skapar en känsla av ritualistisk upprepning. Den starka sångprestationen levererar de okonventionella texterna med tydligt uttal, vilket förstärker den surrealistiska kvaliteten när explicita ord ställs mot det paradisiska ljudlandskapet. De instrumentala mellanspelen – särskilt de traditionella hawaiianska slack-key gitarr-partierna och de komplexa percussiondelarna – visar på en teknisk förmåga som står i kontrast till texternas närmast dadaistiska enkelhet. "Bordellmamma" är en experimentell låt som utmanar lyssnarens förväntningar genom att kombinera exotiska rytmer från Hawaiis stränder med provokativt explicita ordkollage – ett ljudkonstverk snarare än en traditionell låt, som förflyttar lyssnaren mellan förvirring, fascination och oväntade skratt i ett avantgardistiskt musikaliskt experiment där regler och konventioner medvetet bryts ner och omformas.

Bordellmamma

Steel-drum sparkles, marimba plucks and a chilled four-on-the-floor kick make “Island Excuse” a ready-made vacation. Somewhere between Kygo’s tropical house and Jonas Blue’s radio EDM, logical_miracle delivers escapist lyrics (“Tell my boss the tide said stay”) and a melodic drop engineered for poolside playlists and travel-brand adverts. At 102 BPM, it slides seamlessly into summer mix-shows.

Island Excuse

hope you can feel the warmth of the stars while listening to this 

Warmth of the stars

"Shadows of Avalon" is a deeply spiritual and atmospheric trance composition that masterfully blends Caribbean steel pan traditions with modern electronic production to create a powerful meditation on exile, longing, and spiritual resilience. The production is sophisticated and layered, featuring steelpan melodies, tropical synths, soft trance arpeggios, and four-on-the-floor beats that create an immersive sonic landscape evoking both island paradise and spiritual yearning. The strong vocal performance delivers the contemplative lyrics with perfect pronunciation and deep emotional conviction, capturing the pain of displacement while maintaining hope for spiritual connection and remembrance of ancestral lands. Lyrically, the song explores themes of forced exile and cultural displacement through the metaphor of Avalon, using imagery of foreign spaces and silent chains to convey the experience of being separated from one's spiritual home while being asked to perform or entertain. The composition balances mourning for what was lost with prayers for spiritual favor and connection, creating a universal narrative about maintaining faith and identity in unfamiliar circumstances. The instrumental arrangements, particularly the steel drum counter melodies, marimba layers, and dancehall percussion, demonstrate exceptional fusion of Caribbean musical traditions with contemporary electronic production techniques. "Shadows of Avalon" is an exceptional piece of spiritual world music that will resonate with listeners seeking both musical sophistication and emotional depth - a composition that honors Caribbean musical heritage while addressing universal themes of displacement, memory, and the search for spiritual grounding in a complex world.

🎬 Season 2, Episode 9: “We Own This Light”
🌴 Neon skies. Palm-clap beats. A night made for running too fast, laughing too loud, and burning brighter than the skyline.

You didn’t come here to blend in.
You came to own the streetlights, turn the volume red, and make the city remember your name.

Top down. Fast lane. City on fire.
One hand on the wheel, the other high in the air.
This isn’t just music — it’s the spark that makes everything glow.

Tropical House, Summer EDM and Melodic Pop collide in this euphoric festival anthem — plucked guitars, bounce bass, steel drums, vocal chops, and soaring harmonies.
If you like Kygo, Sigala or Jonas Blue, you’ll feel right at home here.

💫 “We glow, we shine — we own this light.”
No rules. No apologies. Just the sound of a summer that refuses to fade.

🌀 Vibe: Tropical pop × summer EDM × festival heat — 115 BPM of pure glow, freedom, and joy.

🎧 Best played:
– driving through neon streets at 2AM
– barefoot on a rooftop with the bass shaking the sky
– or anytime you need to feel like the night belongs to you

📀 From Sunlight Memories — 18 tracks dropping mid-August on all platforms.

A version of "Jane Says" by Jane's Addiction. Fun to play with the talented drummer WT. She laid down a drum groove as I played acoustic guitar, and then she overdubbed a conga. I overdubbed bass and steel drum.

Jane Says (WTJB) 11-6-25 v1.2

Acoustic guitar; folk; Americana; jam band influences; blues; rock; old time; bluegrass; grungey stuff. Even some electro and EDM vibes occasionally. I play a wide mix of music with a lot of different people.

Aleiwa! I'm an Indie Artist & I hope I bring you entertainment or the like; and if I don't, I have failed as a person.

I'm primarily a pianist who's main genre instrumental new age/ambient classical crossover.  I also play many other instruments like guitar, which I mostly make folk/rock and krautrock.

Coming to you from a place famous for its surf & counter culture.


To all who come before me and to all who follow, I shall shove my love upon those who sweeten the pot of compassion.

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.
