Thank You so much for over 1400 plays ❤️

This is a second part of my triptych "Memories From the City of Light", begun with "Vital Signs". A love theme, a story of my heroes love – full of uncertainty, unfulfillment and even danger... Creating this piece I had in mind two couples: Rachel and Rick Deckard from Ridley Scott's "Blade Runner" and Irene and Driver from Nicolas Winding Refn's "Drive".

This track is also a homage to one of the greatest composers - Ewangelos Odiseas Papathanasiu aka Vangelis.

In production again I've reach out for help to Jörg aka @joerxworx and his tenor saxophone on which he beautifully performed, catching the atmosphere of this track in couple of amazing sounds – thank You my friend for Your patience!

Jörg @joerxworx - tenor saxophone
R.U.R. @r-u-r-pl - composition, mix, mastering
DAW Ableton Live Standard
Spitfire Originals Media Toolkit - Piano
Vital free - synth
Massive - synth
Surge XT - synth

We thank You for listening and we're hoping You enjoyed it a bit.

Story behind the scenes:

This track was created one day (about 4 weeks ago) when I had one beer that went hard to my head. I sat before my computer and tried to listen my previous tracks and I felt very unsatisfied by all that music. It felt like everything was... heartless.
In that moment I took all my feelings, all memories of happy and not so happy love to create this track.

In the process I got mad at my 2 octaves Novation LaunchKey mini keyboard, because my hands almost couldn't fit both on such a small device... and I understood it limits my creativity... Time to change... something ;)

Also it's a first time I played without metronome. This track is completely devoid of tempo. These are the pure emotions of playing live.

Heron in winter (naviarhaiku576)

Thoughts frozen in time
My mind was paralysed 
Animation flashing across my eyes
Searching peace in the calm of night
There was an empty space in a corner of my mind
I felt the need to fill it

I can give you all you give to me and more
With the healing of my love, you push at an open door
Take a breath to see the beauty, feel the rain on my face
And inner strength from the love of your warm embrace 

There’s no strength in anger
Kindness feeds the hunger
Lift the shroud of discontent
I don’t fight this alone
Troubles I don’t own are leaving me now
I’ve learned to love what I have, and what is all around

Catastrophize, memorize 
Imagination burnt out in overdrive 
I’m done with fighting problems 
And the madness I’d invite
My heart and mind is one 
I trust you with my life

Drifting in the shadows, I find a light inside
Whispers of the past, now a gentle guide
With each step forward, breaking chains that bind,
In the quiet moments, clarity to find

Let the storms rage on, I will stand my ground
In the warmth of your presence, my peace is found.
With every heartbeat, we’ll weave a tapestry,
A story of resistance, love’s sweet symphony

When the road grows weary, and the shadows start to creep
I’ll find resolve within, in the quiet deep
For every scar I carry, there’s wisdom it unfolds
Lessons from the journey,  the future starts to mould

Take Another Breath

An experiment with two voices and 4-parts.  I had difficulty balancing the parts.  In any case, I hope you enjoy it. Thank you for listening.
