Duration: 3 min 31 s
Description: BROKEN TAPES: VI-X is the second instalment of the BROKEN TAPES EP'S. It features five songs that did not make the cut for the upcoming album.

I am such a big fan of Bonnie Prince Billy. I had to do a little impro on his track Even if Love. I slowed it way down cause I thought that would reflect the mood of the track even better. Then build a unique synth setting for it. Hope you like it. 
Here you can find the original song by BPB: https://on.soundcloud.com/iz7xoR0Fd5nvRHGezN

Once again in the world
Of twelve hundred feelings
All in electric lights
We see what we can
And I love the sound of wind
Blowing at night through trees
From the roof I can see tombs
Past the houses of the city
And I have been yours
In foul and in praying
And I loved to look at you
From the side at night with music playing
And love will protect you
To the edge of the wood
Then a monster will get you
And love does no good
And even if love were not what I wanted
Love would make love the thing most desired

Sounds are really interesting things, even if they are made up of false or incomprehensible pieces. Can you make something meaningful out of them? I experimented with that in this music, adding a little instrumental music as well.

POLLUTED SKY

Paradise

This song came from one of those quiet November moments when the world feels cold and still, and you’re not even sure what you’re grateful for — but you feel it anyway. It’s about standing in the middle of winter’s chill, watching the bare trees, hearing the wind, and realizing there’s a small fire inside you that refuses to go out.

It’s cozy and reflective, like being wrapped in a blanket while the wind howls outside. It’s about finding warmth even when things feel frozen, seeing a glow even on the gray days, and letting the winter teach you how to grow.

Sometimes gratitude isn’t loud or obvious. Sometimes it’s soft, simple, and quiet — like snow falling or a low-burning fire. This song is my way of holding onto those moments and sharing that warmth with you.


LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
November air is cold you know
The trees are bare
The ground is froze
But the fire's burning
Oh so low

[Prechorus]
Got a thankful heart
Yeah I do

[Chorus]
What am I grateful for I don't know
The sun it shines I see the glow
I'm grateful for the winter snow
It helps me grow

[Verse 2]
The wind it howls a mournful tune
Beneath the eaves
Under the moon
But inside is cozy
Coming soon

[Prechorus]
Got a thankful heart
Yeah I do

[Chorus]
What am I grateful for I don't know
The sun it shines I see the glow
I'm grateful for the winter snow
It helps me grow

Thankful Heart

My debut album’s tender opening statement. Washed in glowing reverb and soft dynamics, this all-guitar instrumental unfolds like a quiet sunrise: introspective, warm, and full of promise. A calm before the storm of riffs to come.

This Time Tonight

The final composition in a four-part suite incorporating, re-orchestrating and expanding the themes originally written for my 2022 track "Year in a Day".
