All of my songs from the last couple of years, which I'm trying cull through to pull together a couple of official album releases.

The ALL

We go deeper, always deeper in the sun
When the light of the day, day is done
When the world is upside down
And the sky is holy ground

Now we're rolling, oh rolling out the scrolls
And cracking all the codes
The cipher lies within the book
Cryptic pages, take, take a look
In a glass, an image undefined
But a face beautiful and kind

Pull the strings that light has spun
Fall deeper, deeper in the sun
And the last, the last shall be first
And the meek will inherit the earth
When we shake, we shake the curse
In this glass, this image undefined
And the face beautiful and kind
In the sun, deeper in the sun
Down down

Tom Hanson - acoustic guitars, vocals, synths

Deeper In The Sun

Took a walk in the garden
As the day was starting
And the clouds were parting
At the turning of the wheel

I want to drink it
Not overthink it
Deflate or shrink it
This turning of the wheel

Have I been be hypnotized
Or mesmerized
By moonlit skies
At the turning of the wheel?

Now the memories are returning
And all the yearning
My heart was burning
At the turning of the wheel

Took a stroll in the garden
As the day was starting
Felt like a pardon
This turning of the wheel

The Turning Of The Wheel

One of my favorite recent songs.  I was looking to include it in a specific album, but in that collection it didn't quite fit--until I experimented with removing the bass guitar.  That changed the mood and now it fit better.  I do dig the bass part so not sure what I'll do, but thought I'd share this version while I "sit with it" for a while:

Swirling in the sun
Did you dream the starling again?
The many and the one
Soaring like a starling again
You hear the haunting sound, look around
Will you be the starling again?

Join the chorus, sing along
That murmuration song

You hear the cries
And you are a starling again
Ride the rhythm of the skies
Will you dance the starling again?

In a chorus, a symphony
A canticle

Oh I don't know why
You are so shy today
You don't know when
It will come again your way

The isolation fades
And you are a starling again
Down the desolation days
Fly like a starling again
The madness, the rage, turn the page
Oh you are a starling again

Join the chorus, sing along
That murmuration song

I don't know why
You try to hide away
Who can say when
It may come again your way?
Look to the skies
Starlings will rise today

Starlings (alternate)

She wore a garland of daisies
She skipped across the field
The morning sky was hazy
It all seemed a bit unreal

I tried to tell you about her
I cried, "come, come along"
You ran right through the clearing
By then she was gone

All these moments, like memories, slip away
Pretty flowers fading with the day
Silver raindrops that quietly evaporate
Just like time my love, just like time

She seemed a little like changeling
A child of the fey
It was the way she floated
And glided on her way

I really wish you could have seen her
And the daisies in her hair
I turned to you for a second
Then she wasn't there

All these moments, like emotions, melt away
Pretty flowers wilting with the gray
Silver raindrops that softly evaporate
With time my love, with time

Then She Wasn't There

Dream, dream, dream, oh dream my darling
Green, green, green the grass on your hill (on your hill)
You know I wish you all the world
If only it were up to me my girl

Dream, dream, dream, oh dream a star
You know in my eyes that's what, what you are (yes what you are)
Rain drops fall from storm clouds overhead
And you will be washed clean again and again

And this is my promise
This is my prayer
And my, my purpose
To see, see you there

Yes dream, dream, dream, oh dream my angel
Who knows how high you may fly (but oh you'll fly)
And you know I wish you all the world
And if it were up to me my girl
You'd have it, oh yes you would

And this is my promise
This is my prayer
And my, my purpose
To see, to lead you there
This is my promise
Now this is my prayer
Oh my purpose
To see, see you there

Dream, dream, dream oh dream

We have just released the remix of our song “Red Seas.”
A live bass performance has now been added to the wonderful jaw's harp.
A fantastic addition to Amanitalinda's mouth harp. Check it out and give us your feedback.

Our live recording video is also well worth watching. It's a live performance by Amanitalinda with the guimbarde. Despite the challenges of the live jam session, she plays her wonderful Maultrommel with clockwork precision, yet sensitively and empathetically! 

Let yourself be seduced by the wonderful sound atmosphere and follow the magic of our music.

Live recording video. 
Recorded in the east part of central Slovakia.

Red Seas (Remix)

Red Seas (Remix) & Video Link

Lyrics:
The Vikings had an Erickson to reach a distant land.
Magellan chased the spinning globe, charting stars by hand.

They all looked up at Kitty Hawk as new wings cut the sky.
Courage lifted off the sand and showed us how to fly.
Look up my friend, look up again tonight.

The night is long, the stars still burn, especially at night.
The dark can’t teach the stars despair, always happy, always bright.
Stars don't move, just our eyes. They don’t cry when we fight.
Look up my friend, look up again tonight.

We teach machines to think like us, for profit, fear and wars.
They mirror all our human fuss but can't look up at stars.

Please don’t be like Elon, who's lost it all around,
where once he used to look beyond but now he just looks down.

You see the ground, it pulls you down,
the night seems long, but stars surround.
Look up my friend, look up again tonight.

You could be another Cochran, just like Jacqueline, maybe Zephram.
You could be just like Yeager and break another barrier.

The world shared a common tune and made us all look up when
Neil and Buzz aimed for the moon. A giant leap from one small step.

The night is long, the stars still burn, especially at night.
The dark can’t teach stars despair, always happy, always bright.
Find the star that lights your way, your purpose in the night.
Look up my friend, look up again tonight.

Look Up

🎵 The Sound of Your Smile
A piece born from quiet emotion — where every note carries warmth, memory, and light.
It’s about that one smile that changes everything — the one that speaks without words,
the one that stays in your heart long after the sound fades.

🎹 One take. From the soul.

#Piano #OneTake #Love #Smile #Emotional #Instrumental #AlexandruCiobanuAlRufei #MusicalTigers
—
🎵 Sunetul zâmbetului tău
O piesă născută din liniște și emoție — unde fiecare notă poartă căldură, amintire și lumină.
Despre acel zâmbet care schimbă totul — cel care vorbește fără cuvinte,
cel care rămâne în inimă mult după ce sunetul dispare.

🎹 O singură interpretare. Din suflet.

Propitiation

Called in dismay
And you heard my pain
With you on my side
Who could be afraid?

Was about to fall
Then I heard your call
Your words of living truth
Will never pass away

[chorus]

He is my strength
And our redemption
Better to trust in Him
Than to trust in man

He is our hope
And our salvation
Better to trust in Him
Than to trust in man

Right hand exalted
Wrought with power
Everlasting mercy
endures today

His propitiation
Is our salvation
He is the gate
the righteous way

[chorus]

This is the day
The Lord has made
hearts are remade
In His holy name

Thank Lord Jesus
For He is good
And His mercy
Forever endures

Propitiation

Here you will find little acoustic pop songs; melancholy, dreamy-folk things. Sometimes some jangly, fuzzy rock tunes or ambient pieces as well. Work-in-progress demos to finished tracks, informal playlists to official album releases. Enjoy.
