Verse 1: Theres some complications as we are scratching at the monkeys skin 
So lets drop this virus and watch them scatter around like pigs
They go and lay the rope down we pick it up and tie the noose
divide and conquer separate the lies from truth

Chorus: Thier praying on our weakness 
watch us fall and profit on us
Bring the storms and hurricanes forrest fires and earthquakes and 
watch us fade dive and conquer
watch us fade divide and conquer

Verse 2: This debates a circus as they parade around the noble house 
and we drink the potion just to take it in and spew it out
The doctors beds are full again the preacher lays his bible down 
dinners on the TV ring the bell and herd the cows

Chorus: Cause we are quick to say whats on our mind 
but scared to take it any higher
Fall in line or step aside its clearly social suicide
Now watch us fade divide and conquer

Chorus: Thier praying on our weakness watch us fall and profit on us
Bring the storms and hurricanes forrest fires and earthquakes and watch us fade 
Cause we are quick to say whats on our mind but scared to take it any higher Fall in line or step aside its clearly social suicide
Now watch us fade divide and conquer

THEME: 
As humans, we take ourselves far too seriously. Our world has always been divided by those who feel that their own voice is the only true voice. Monsters brutally rule others through ideologies, politics and money. 

Humans delude themselves of their own self-importance. Yet, “on the scale of worlds or galaxies - humans are inconsequential, a thin film of life on an obscure and solitary lump of rock and metal.” (Carl Sagan) 

Perhaps by understanding our universal insignificance, we can find the courage to more kindly behave towards one another, and to preserve and cherish our “pale blue dot” in the universe, the only home we’ve ever known. 

About VLADIMIR VELICHKOV (Bulgaria) 
Vladimir is a virtuoso musician performing on the kaval musical instrument, as well as a composer and professor at the Bulgarian Music Academy in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, where he teaches “Kaval, Chamber Ensembles, Orchestra and Theoretical Disciplines”. He has a doctorate degree in “The Art of Kaval - Tradition and Modernity”. 

The kaval is a woodwind instrument, characteristic of Bulgarian folklore music. Extracting sound and tone from the kaval is extremely difficult. Vladimir achieves an extremely varied sound by using new techniques such as playing two or three notes simultaneously while singing into the instrument; using the “voiced air column” effect where the whistling of air passes through the instrument at a certain pitch and a melody is played - the so-called “whistling wind” effect; overflow of several registers in one or two octaves; and playing percussion effects. https://youtube.com/@VladimirVelichkov0205?si=i6ZhJEmvSR4Z5HIF 

About JAMES HILL (USA) 
Born into a musical family in Burbank, California, James began playing the trumpet at the age of nine and never stopped! “James creates a beautiful and compelling array of musical landscapes - fusing genres, styles, instruments, and rhythms into intensely evocative compositions. His music is punctuated by stellar and often haunting trumpet interludes or overlays. There are certain beautiful and pointed experiences in life on earth that should not be missed, and must be savoured…. The music of James Hill is one of these experiences.” (R. Sebastian Bennett) https://youtube.com/@tcabstudio?si=o_z3iUDQi4K3FMty

Lyrics:

Breathe and reshape, be not afraid
Underneath the pines, breathe and reshape
Oceans wide, a sign!

Like the seasons blazing we paint the sky
Our spirits unify

Underneath the pines, breathe and reshape
Oceans wide, a sign!

Like the seasons blazing we paint the sky
Our spirits unify, a symphony of greens
Chase your wildest dreams
We paint the sky
We unify

Unify

Like the seasons blazing we paint the sky
Our spirits unify a symphony of greens
Chase your wildest dreams
We paint the sky
We unify

Unify

We Unify!

Lyrics:

You found your strength
Perhaps the source that carries you along

I’m not crippled by your spell
I’m not influenced by your will

You found your tribe to reinforce
You’re exactly where you’re supposed

Acoustic version of "Swim" https://soundcloud.com/crash_landed/swim

Lyrics

We would dive in deep
A lot of dreams, dive in deep
Like lovers sleep
In lavender

Ooh, I know where you rest
Ooh, there's no way back

Burn for burn, justice served
Wound for wound, you haven't seen the last of me yet
Bruise for bruise, nobody has

Burn for burn, justice served
Wound for wound, you haven't seen the last of me yet
Bruise for bruise, nobody has

How did I win
I never saved, anything
For the way back, and you did

Ooh, I know where you rest
Ooh, there's no way back

Burn for burn, justice served
Wound for wound, you haven't seen the last of me yet
Bruise for bruise, no-body has

Burn for burn, justice served
Wound for wound, you haven't seen the last of me yet
Bruise for bruise, no-body has

If you would watch the sun go down with me tonight
I’d know just what to say to you
If you could feel my heart right now
You’d know just what I am feeling.
Right Now

In your eyes there's no lies
All I see is the love inside of you
I'm learning to listen
Listen to your heart.

And now that you're with me
I know just what you're thinking… tonight
I know just how you're feeling
I know just where you are tonight. 
Why couldn't it be tonight?
Why couldn't it be tonight?
But maybe tomorrow 
But maybe tomorrow

If you would watch the sun go down with me tonight
I’d know just want to say to you

Why couldn't it be tonight?
Why couldn't it be tonight?
But maybe tomorrow 
But maybe tomorrow

If you would watch the sun go down with me tonight
I’d know just want to say to you
If you could feel my heart right now
You know just what I am feeling.
Right Now……..

Be in the Now............

PROGRAM NOTE
My original inspiration for Embracing the Wind was the image of an Olympic athlete running against the wind. The process of writing this work eventually shifted me to more abstract thoughts, such as the concept of creating music that sounds flexible and has wind-like, ebb-and-flow qualities. I try to achieve this by creating musical zephyrs from repeated motives and smooth phrases that utilize gradual dynamic swells and subtle tempo fluctuations. In this sense, Embracing the Wind is perhaps more minimal and Romantic than many of my other pieces: minimal in that cells that are repeated over and over again as textural background, Romantic in that the form is intentionally less severe and also has a narrative, structural quality.

Star Crossing

Embracing The Wind (Flute, Viola, Harp)

I've had a bit of a rebrand. The time has come where I'd like to think that in the 6 years since I started my journey in music production, that it's time to step up a level. I have always had a passion to learn and grow as a music producer/beat maker, which for me, being self taught of all kinds of genres and styles is something I have always tried to prove with every song/beat/instrumental I create. I am a very humble person and I strive to be the best I can possibly be, not only for myself but for those I work with too. With that being said thank you for being here and taking the time to read this and being a part of my journey.
