Abyss

Terra Sapiens - Abyss

The truth is that all my completed works are incomplete. I have a strong feeling that there is still more I want to say. But with electronic music, if I were to arrange phrases like a collage, there would be no space left. My heart dances while I worry that I "haven't said it yet." What a strange title!

Music for the dancing heart(299)

Reverie

My favourite Hungarian song. I don’t speak Hungarian apart from knowing a few words, but  some of my ancestors were from Hungary so it was definitely an interesting experience for me to give this a try. I’ve also covered songs in several other languages, in case you’re interested, you can check out my playlist called “languages”. Thank you! :)

Omega - Gyöngyhajú Lány (my cover)

Electronic midtempo composition with synths, strings and percussion

Far away

The schoolyard

The boys played marbles, the girls jumped rope 
It was springtime, early may
Mrs Milgram was very convinced
She told us of our sins
And then we dropped the stone

The schoolyard was just a hole
The teachers left us alone
Finally through 
In the end no one knew,
but the blister and the poking

The schoolyard

Well, technically, this should be titled "Half-prelude in C Major, Interlude in G Major and Prelude (again) in C Major", but never mind that, I had fun making this little tribute to one of the old masters. See (or listen) if you can recognize the melodies in the middle :)

EDIT: It has come to my attention that the Minuet in G Major, included in the middle part, was (not so) recently found to be actually composed by Christian Petzold (1677-1733), not Bach. So, this is a tribute to him too, I guess.

Bitter Sweet is written after reading the Thursday murder Club book by Richard Osman. It told the story of John and Penny.  John sits by Penny's bed all day and simply holds her hand. So it left me wondering what was in Johns head at night.  I hope you hear whatever story you can find.

Bitter Sweet

Wrote this back in May when the Irish government recognised Palestine as a state. Hold the trophies, we were the 142nd country to formally do it so about time!

There are so many parallels between their current struggle and Ireland's battle against oppression over the centuries. I found it quite beautiful, as a nation, we at least took the high ground on recognition with that small step against the wishes of most power corners of the world.

According to this there are 50 states still to recognize Palestine diplomatically. 47 of which are members of the UN. Within these 50 lie the countries with the most power...

I have a more polished version of the song which I'll throw up at some stage but I think the rawness of this is fitting given what it's about...


'Over the years Ireland said a famous saying, Toicfaidh ar lá, it means our day will come. We now have a largely peaceful place to live thankfully....

I'm not a religious person. spiritual maybe, but the prayers in this song are in solidarity with the Palestinians and I know prayer for most of them is most of the hope they have! A wider awareness of their plight should eventually change that. So here's my whisper for the Palestinian people. I really hope you get the freedom you deserve 🙏🏻

Lyrics

This May day, we recognise
An overdue state of Palestine
It’s a good day,
Come on there’s many left alive
We hope and pray for them and their rights….

Tragedy on both sides
Other always wrong!
And you’re always right!

Where the power lies
The truth subsides
And the children die
Yes the children die
How?
Why?
Oh my

Starving,
We know what thats like
Forced famine on this Isle
Bombs in your beds tonight
Well God I hope they’re right
Please, at least an afterlife
To live when we die

Then the kids maybe they’ll be alright
The kids will make it right
Once the biggots die

No fight
Just rights

For Palestine (Studio Acoustic Live)
