Wonderful guitars & vocals! Love the atmospheric recording!

Morning coffee..this song, gathering peace for the day. This is just serene. Beautiful song!

Such eloquent playing and superb, emotive singing, deep and resonant.  Lovely and meaningful lyrics too.  How often love comes to us when we stop looking.

Golden Moment

Since “Particle Guitar” over a year ago, Steve and I have written and performed many new songs together.  And we’ve formed a new band called “Korima” which will soon release its debut EP: “Into Your World”.
 
Along the way, as Korima, we’ve created some short songs.  Not excerpts but, rather, complete pieces to be enjoyed briefly on their own - or as connectors exploring the relationships between songs.
We’d like to showcase some of them here.  This is the first one up: White Sail.  We hope you enjoy it!
 
Korima's songs are written, performed, arranged, engineered, and produced by SuZanne Ledwith (Ireland) and Steve Pumphrey (England).

MAY MORNING DEW

When I first heard this I instantly picked up a  blusey mid eastern flavour to it and decided to pick up on that theme. I used Pauls track "Remember" in it's entirety with no edits to do some post production work around it, picking up on that eastern vibe I was getting !! I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did making it.  
A BIG thank you to Paul for this opportunity and for all your great support!!

Life, drives you to the ground
Kicks you when you’re down
Wants to wear your crown

Love, comes as no surprise
Right before your eyes
With truth instead of lies

Stop explaining
Days are waning
Then you realize
That it’s your time to fly

We have travelled through this life 
Through the tears and strife
To the other side

Dreams, elude us when we sleep
And rivers run so deep
The secrets they will keep

Lives are taken
Plans, forsaken
Then you realize
That it’s your time to fly..

It may be we’ll never understand
Building castles in the sea and sand…

Love, comes as a surprise
Right between the eyes

For the Love of Life

"Take aim at his heart now!" he yelled. "And shoot for the head!" shouted back his armed colleague. But with tears in the formers' eyes, he knew he had already lost the fight. The longer he wore on in the battle with his foe, the greater his uncertainty. 
This song is about a mercenary remembering an encounter with a fellow mercenary. They were both after the same target and the first, unarmed mercenary was forced to kill his armed colleague with a car.
Listening to the story of the song, one may get the sense that betrayal and regret are central themes; however, they are only one of the many threads unfurled in the song. Violence and mercy are more central, especially within the mind's eye of the protagonist re-living what had occurred on one fateful day.
A violent mind may not breed mercy, but mercy will never hold a place (or a candle, if you will) in the minds of those whose idea of violence is not honourable and just -- in a moral sense, of course. Moral compasses change direction from person to person, from time to time, and from situation to situation. They can even, sometimes, point to one's own fate -- mercifully or not.

LYRICS:
Somebody once told me
In a ripped-up rage
Had eyes like a monster, and it came
Like the wind against my head.
So Drive Like You Stole It
With nothing to say
Eyes runnin' like water, to this day
I could not relate.

Hearing slowed-down sounds
Of an engine roaring,
Wheels rollin' to a cliff's end
And shot out in escape.
So it seemed
Was a blow to my youth.

Somebody once told me
In a ripped-up rage
Had eyes like a monster, and it came
Like the wind against my head.
So Drive Like You Stole It
With nothing to say
Eyes runnin' like water, to this day
I could not relate.

Seeing moving parts
As it comes upon him,
Devoted locomotion
To bring about elimination.
What I've seen
I have created.

Somebody once told me
In a ripped-up rage
Had eyes like a monster, and it came
Like the wind against my head.
So Drive Like You Stole It
With nothing to say
Eyes runnin' like water, to this day
I could not relate.

Take aim at his heart now
And shoot for the head
A backstabber grieving his existence,
So tortured.
Hold up a candle
In a darkened cave
Canot fix what cannot be seen:
I refuse to replay.

Like You Stole It

Similar to R I.P.  A bit of fun with a Dylanesque type blues.
