Calm sound, gentle melody with a good atmosphere

this deserves so many compliments i don't know where to begin!

big sound can see this used in film score beautiful sound

How beautiful accentuated interpretation, lifting this great composition. a quiet and yet powerful call to nature.

Sorry if my comparison is way off-- it's like Martin Denny meets Deep Forest-- it's serene. Exquisite.

Sketch of Artificial Intelligence

When my songwriting friend Colin Macduff (find his beautiful debut album 'The Past and the Sky" here: https://www.birnamcdshop.com/product/colin-macduff/) shared his poem 'The Rope', I asked if he'd mind if I tried to put a melody to it.

I did. This is the demo version which I'm hoping to record in a studio soon. There's an accompanying video created with footage from my phone: https://studio.youtube.com/video/yhxZxWGo0wY/edit


The Rope

Coiled, crossed, entangled in a corner
Old and wise and silent, silent as a snake
Left aside beside the new, unwanted
You dream of hands, the touch, their grip, their shape

Once you ran the span and moored our vessels
Safe between the capstan, the capstan and the quay
Once you were the rope that held us steady
Once you were the rope that cast us free

The push the pull, the swing, lasso and ladder
The tug of war when we were in our teens
The give, the take, that bound us all together
The start, the end, the knot, the way and means

Life line, last line, frayed and poorly
In my hand your strands so soft, soft and slack
In my dreams you’re running on beside me
With me all the long way – the long way out and back
With me all the long way – the long way out and back

Just a  little song I wrote for these words...for Valentine's Day or for any day! The message is yours!

There is something, I want to say
There is something, I want to say,
There is something, I want to say to you.
I want to say to you...
I want to say to you...
