Lyrics:
They say smiling hides pain
But what really hides the pain
Is going through the motions 
With no expression
I'm standing here  in limbo
One day it’s acceptance then it’s back to depression
But I don’t need anyone to worry
As long as I have some time left
How could I be in any kind of hurry?

A little forward motion never hurt anyone
I have my days when my heart's not breaking
I know I have more to come
A little forward motion never hurt anyone
We can make it out of this
We’re staying ‘cause we’re far from done

Do I really want to come in here?
There is a song I just can’t sing
‘Cause it’s too much about the last year.
It’s a good crowd on a Wednesday
The place is clean and vented
I really shouldn't be feeling the fear

But I have to lay low again
But I've been working on some fresh tunes
That I finally get to share with my friends

A little forward motion never hurt anyone
Baby stepping through the setbacks
Relearning how to have fun
A little forward motion never hurt anyone
We can make it out of this
We’re staying ‘cause we’re far from done

Blessed are the Women

They'd rather we hide
our magic
underneath the stones
thrown at us
to keep us quiet and
away from our power

But we are
everywhere

In the fire you burnt us
to be reborn again
from the soot

In the air you suffocated us
to wax and wane again
with the breath of the moon

In the water you drowned us
for our
lungs to cradle us again

In the earth you buried us to
grow again like seeds from its
precious womb

弔い歌(dirge)

秋扇
笑い居るひと　ひややかに
われも　ひややか
弔いはせじ

It is unseasonable to use an Ougi (folding fan) in the fall.
You laugh coldly.
My heart is cold too.
I do not mourn you.

Winter Comes To The Estuary

Marco Lucchi : piano and synthesizer

2 ottobre 2022

Still life

Written specifically for an ambisonic, surround-sound concert hosted by Tuesdays Post at Iklectik, London. An immersive piece about the engines of vocal sounds and the articulators. ..vowels and consonants... We can only mean something if the sounds uttered make patterns that we recognise as aural symbols for doing, naming, describing, categorising and connecting. ... all the sounds in this piece are vocal.. apart from one long sample of a bass monochord (a wooden board you lay down on.. and someone plays 40 or so strings attached underneath.. all of the same pitch).. It's about meaning... some words pop through the clouds of vocal sound, all these words belong to 8 taglines... most of the rhythms are derived from the rhythm of these sentences, normal everyday sentences that make you think of a product because of the sheer amount of repetition .. disrobing the sentence of it's original sentiment. 

This is a binaural bounce. If you are interested in obtaining a copy in quad, octo, or full Ambisonic drop me PM. :)

Undivided

kigi no ibuki (2022)

Z levenjem se prenavljam,
ko odlagam plasti jezika,
ki je povedal svoje  
in utihnil. 
Njegova skorja se počasi
lušči z mene,
ko se obdrgne ob kamenje dneva,
ob prisotnost ljudi in
tišino okrog njih.
Ko se v njegove razpoke
vtikajo besede tujih pesmi,
pod njim že raste nov jezik,
mlad kot pomladno listje,
prosojen na trdnih vejah telesa.

Words by Manca Klun
Music by Alessandro De Oliveira Bastos

I am an amateur musician.
I make music with "Magix Music Maker", because I can play the piano very little.
The singer in my tracks is not a human being. She is a synthesizer software named "Vocaloid Yukari".
