Lyrics 

Restlessly as if under a spell 
We rush into the sea 
It calls you by your ancient name 
Given by no one 
Yours since before 
You were born 

Timeless we dive
In the golden eye
Timeless we dive
In the golden eye


A gust of wind in your messy hair 
Draws some salty goddess 
Ancestral work of art 
Released from the waves 
Risking to burn 
Your pale skin 


Timeless we dive
In the golden eye
Timeless we dive
In the golden eye
(Shrouded in glare)

Let’s leave our clothes on the shore
No, it’s not the end

"When she came to visit me, I believe it was early afternoon. I was in bed, reading the ceiling. I felt like the last survivor from a galaxy far, far away.
Venilia opened the window and invited the wind and that lapping that slowly swamped me. Unexpectedly the bed began to float and I found myself in the open sea. I closed my eyes and decided to let Vanilla’s breath guide me. 

I could feel the waves breaking, the shore getting closer and closer. Then I got there, castaway and touched by the gods.
The sandy shore was hot and dazzling white. My feet sank into it and all I could do was dance. A disconnected hallucinated swaying reconnected me with every newborn creature, with all that is ancient and ancestral I had lost, with my body, my past, with my loved ones and those I missed. All became clearly illegible. Accurate in its marvelous inaccuracy. I existed, that was all. No control. Venilia would sing. I danced. " Lunar Bird

Refreshing as a tall, ice-cold glass of lemonade and just as bitter, “Sour Grapes” is a characterful take on the frustrations and disappointments of adulthood; full of nostalgic warmth, video game bleeps and bloops and R&B-tinged beats, it's the perfect cocktail of freshly-squeezed pop for when adulthood just isn’t sweet enough.

Sour Grapes

My new track ‘Sainte-Chapelle’; written, recorded and produced by myself. This track is a dreamy folk track and I made it using my acoustic guitar and 80s synth keyboard. The French chorus was originally going to be a backing vocal but I quickly realised that it sounded better on its own and so made it the main chorus. As with a lot of my songs, I originally plan on making them very minimal in terms of production but I always end up throwing much more than intended at them. However, I really tried to hold back with this one and purposefully made the production quite simple; just adding a few synths on the final chorus. For those who don’t know, the Sainte-Chapelle is a gothic-style chapel in Paris that was commissioned by Louise IX as his personal place of worship and it got me thinking about the contrast between the grandeur of these medieval cathedrals and the poverty of the surrounding cities. Even with these places of immense beauty, the misery of the people cannot be hidden. Not a political or religious message, I just find these kinds of things interesting. I studied it in university cos I am a huge nerd lol. I hope you enjoy.

Lyrics:
Dive from Heaven, golden waterfalls
Sing the light of Christ on these sacred walls
But what blood was spilled in His holy wars?
I guess beauty don’t conceal our Earthly chores

À la Sainte-Chapelle, je prie le Christ
À la Sainte-Chapelle, je prie le Christ

An amethyst jewel of the ancient city
A guardian sky, stars and saintly kings
But what of Paris and its wicked sins?
I guess beauty don’t conceal what lies within

À la Sainte-Chapelle, je prie le Christ
À la Sainte-Chapelle, je prie le Christ
Ooh

Lyrics:
Good morning
Good morning, friend
Put lights in the corners
I’ve been hiding thoughts in them
Wake slowly
Slowly today
The night was loud It woke me up again
Good morning
Good morning, friend 
Silence the night let it end 
Fill the air ultraviolet 
Good morning
Friend
Old morning
Bring rays with you 
Your silence 
Glows gratitude
Like you’re glad I’m still here 
Like your silence could speak 
Slowly shifting
Breathing life into me
Good morning
Good morning, friend 
Silence the night let it end 
Fill the air ultraviolet 
Good morning

Tread lightly my porous mind has not yet bounced back from the night 
Soon I’ll tuck my heart into my sleeve but right now I'll light up in peace
Good morning 
Good morning

Good Morning

This tune is a reminder and a plea. Our current economic climate doesn't make it easy for all to step outside and breathe, take notice of the small things and reliece the pressures that exist in our individual worlds. How wild swimming and standing by trees can regulate our vagus nerve, grounding us in our nervous system allowing us to connect with each other, relax. So it's a reminder, that even if accesss is hard, and housing is hard, and everything is hard, get a bit of fresh air, fresh water, when you can, find a plant, even in the most concrete of landscapes there is always a bit of life.

Opening with a variation on the Georgian folk song 'ბინდისფერია სოფელი' Bindisperia Sopeli taught to me by @nino.naneishvili
Part of the lyrics translates as -
The color of the world is twilight, and is getting darker. In an age where it is easier to imagine dystopia than a hopeful future this song really touched on some of what I was feeling whilst writing 'staring at the grain'.


Lyrics -
Slate and grass and water running fast and o’er over hill,
Over hill and to the lake here there will find the freshest fill,

Undulating mountains pasture slowly beginning to fade,
Hoping that the life clings on here even in the summer’s shade,

Our trees are arteries and our trees are arteries

Twigs and leaf and bark are witness
To the drowning of the hill
Over copse and to the vale here
We won’t find the waters still, mmm...

Beckoning the forest shelters
Axed and planed and sawn in shape
Sweep away last cherry stones
Burn humble hope in fire place

Our trees are arteries and our trees are arteries

Cos nothing cures delirium like staring at the grain the tiny knotted faces help the trees to explain about their life before the plank, the twisted beech and straightened ash

staring at the grain

I took a drive by the riverside to find a place to hide for awhile
I parked the car, heard a waterfall, never saw the waterfall at all

- How did you know what I didn't know? 
- When did you see what I didn't see?

In my dreams we have soft wings, float over everything below
We come to land on the warm sand, we are holding hands once more

LYRICS

My philosophy
Always try things twice
Walk with me, you'll see
Noodles are so nice

My philosophy
Always try things twice
Walk with me, you'll see
Noodles, for life


I want noodles for life
They aint got no order
No straight lines running out
Just chaos no borders
Go where you want son
You'll stay with your brothers
And then at the end
you return to your mothers
Ill slip through his life
Like a fish seeks his water
Her crazy school showing
The way of the order
I'll sip and enjoy from the fruits of my Labour
The world rushes past,
we soon learn to savour
All the things that we see some things we don't
Some folks make what they got: some look back to ghosts
In the vacuum of time we can learn to reframe the grants we were granted now we must learn to share
I was young, so were you, we have all played the fool
I've been given the time and it comes out in rhyme
turning lists into ticks is my new therapy
I do things my own way, bowl of noodles and me.

My philosophy
Always try things twice
Walk with me, you'll see
Noodles are so nice

My philosophy
Always try things twice
Walk with me, you'll see
Noodles, for life

Noodles For Life
