05 Mirror, Mirror

This piece opens with a gentle warmth, its harmonies flowing like a serene stream under soft light. Rooted in A-flat major, it delicately balances serenity and quiet strength, with each phrase thoughtfully shaped to evoke introspection.

The tender yet purposeful melody weaves seamlessly through a subtle accompaniment, creating moments of poignant stillness and heartfelt resolution. Embracing simplicity, the composition allows the emotional depth of each note to shine, while gentle modulations trace a narrative of reflection and quiet hope.

A Romance Torn By The Wind

Take a look around you, to your left and right,
Everybody’s different, but we’re all in the same fight.
We’re all made of skin and bones, we all have a soul.
Everyone is just a part of us.

Nothing wrong with different, nothing wrong with same.
Nothing wrong with in between, we’re all playin’ the game.
We’re all made of skin and bones, we all have a soul.
Everyone is just a part of us.

You and me, and I and we, and us and they, who are we anyway?
He and she, and her and him, everyone’s part of us.

You are who you are, don’t you dare apologize.
I know you can find the way to love if you just try.
We’re all made of skin and bones, we all have a soul.
Everyone is just a part of us.

You and me, and I and we, and us and they, who are we anyway?
He and she, and her and him, everyone’s part of us.

Gabriella Rose - Doublewide Ft. Elly May

From the book: graham wood - tycho's nova (a tomato project, 2001) comes a paragraph worth to be made into a tune. The first three lines are: "The man stops for a meal at a dark roadside cafe. He walks in, shown to a table by a big man with a blonde wig. He is neat, wearing a white uniform with red epaulets and gold buttons." 
The lyrics got build from these lines (and the remains of the paragraph). Have a listen ...

Roadside Café

Horchata

Lyrics:  
Enveloped in the gentle waves
Evening air, a little taste
Sweet scent, getting to the flower in me
Don't misinterpret, there's no wrong intent
I'm just inhaling the incense of desire

Melted gold, murky lighting, enhancing beauty
Senses alert, don't let it stop, sensuous lips
Don't condemn me, there's no bad intent
I'm just inhaling the incense of lust

My solitude when night sets in
Enflames my mind
Comforting blaze
Don't ever change
Time standing still
I'm just inhaling the incense of love

After few bit sharper songs I'm here back with easy listening one. Kind of world music based on acoustic guitar, erhu and clarinet.

"Twenty" was lying for some time on my desk. Some weeks ago I made about first 1 minute and then I lost the inspiration. It was total lack of inspiration and I spent my attention with other tracks. But then suddenly, during one nice easy going summer evening, the inspiration was back and Twenty was tuned and done.

And what about name? Why 20? "Twenty" is just because it's 20th song I have made... It is kind of anniversary, isn't it?
