The floating feeling and the pleasant tone are wonderful.

Mix of great sound. Rhythm tempo brings goodness to Melody.

Great smooth beat and very lush and pretty atmosphere!! Loving it!!

Great production. I like the lightness in your music 

wonderful track , a pleasure to listen to :-)

So nice and calm professional track! It's awesome how you can continue being so versatile and yet at the same time you've got your own original recognizable style!

Great track with top-notch production 👏👏👏

Glow (Dec. 2023)

ON|RUST as it appears here on soundcloud is the first stage of a small project that is actually called O|N|RUST consists of this track, plus a Bandcamp version (January 2024 - supplemented with two short pieces for percussion and electronics) and a 2024 small scale vinyl release. I've built a number of rhythmic sound machines especially for this piece which mainly consists of the hum and interference of electrical equipment supplemented with an electric guitar drone. Mastered by Rupert Clervaux.

WHAT IT IS

This is about how life is constantly presenting challenges. We must learn from each incident/experience and use that learning to try and be more resilient and be able to move forward. 
I wrote it on my 3/4 size Hofner classical guitar. It’s first song! I used open G tuning after being encouraged to try it by Mark Spruce (Original Spruce - great songs- give them a listen!). Thanks Mark! 
Hope you enjoy it. Best with headphones! 
Take care

Lyrics 
My Uncertain Steps 

As a boy, I was scared of the sea
With my family, on a beach in Normandy, 
a French boy told me the ghosts of drowned sailors grab your legs and dragged you down
I wouldn’t go in! 
Too naive and trusting! 

As a teen, I was all over the place! 
Always confused, just didn’t know which way to face
Too many temptations, suggestions and thrills, distracting and wild
Couldn’t think straight 
Couldn’t concentrate! 

It was always their demands and directions 
Had to meet their dreams and expectations 

My uncertain steps
No confidence 
(Trying to find my own way)
My uncertain steps 
At my own pace
(My way) 

My wreckage of a life, with this chaotic love
Constant demands, you can never do enough 
Mix in the bullies, the twisters and those egos too
It pulls you apart
Breaks your heart 

I’m seasoned, I now know this path
One crisis avoided, another starts 

My uncertain steps
More experienced 
(Trying to find my own way)
My uncertain steps
At my own pace 
(My way) 

And now I expect to see the worst
In everyone and everything I know
Just know how it is, but feel I can somehow 
see it through

(outro) 
I’ve got friends (for my uncertain steps)
I’ve lived and learnt (for my uncertain steps)
I’ve got you (for my uncertain steps) 
I’ll get through this (my uncertain steps)

My Uncertain Steps

I would like all First fans to hear this.
Can you overcome the barriers in front of you? Before you stop, believe in your potential. There will be no more barriers or boundaries. 
Realize that it is you who are creating the divides. 
The truth is, you are free and open before you.

Go Over The Line

Sketch(2023) + improv 

It's a little bit selfish piece that packs my favorite atmospheres, such as the midnight waltz and the image of a labyrinth. I sketched it with the image of wandering around looking for the exit from a complicated maze…
