"Shibboleth"
Valhjim

"Shibboleth" is a fun jazzy track with a brief motif that separates sections. This is me just having fun with some improvisations on guitar, tongue-in-cheek.

Jazzscapes

"Where  Water Flows"
Valhjim

"Where Water Flows" opens with a deep, resonant tom drum roll, setting the stage for a rich, evocative piano chord sequence. A soulful female voice hums, weaving through the air like a gentle current. The electric guitar soon takes the lead, its improvisations dancing atop the steady piano chords. As the progression evolves into a series of intricate, chromatic jazz chords, the guitar melody soars. The arrival of a bluesy tenor sax adds a moody, melodic depth, before the piece concludes with the same chromatic chords and a high, poignant guitar line, echoing the fluidity and movement of water.

Thanks to Mr. Martin MIers for his magic drums on this song.

Hope you like it, folks.

Where Water Flows- Valhjim w/Martin Miers

"Winds"
Valhjim

"Winds" opens with a haunting melody that floats through a landscape of echoes and unusual spaces. The song soon unfolds into arpeggiated electric guitar chords that gently waver, creating a shifting foundation. 

A pan flute weaves its melody over the guitar, its notes transformed by flangers and effects into a constantly morphing soundscape. A girl's voice enters, carrying a melody that leads into an electric guitar solo, rich with a sense of yearning. 

The piece closes with an intimate exchange between the girl's voice and the guitar, their melodies intertwining in delicate dialogue.

Hope you like it, folks.

and for your kind words.

Many thanks to Martin Miers for his magic 
percussions on this piece.

"Desert Twilight"
Valhjim

"Desert Twilight" unfolds with a haunting yet delicate soundscape, blending surreal ambiences and subtly shifting atmospheres. A melancholy violin melody plays through eerily suggestive musical motifs, while a woman's evocative song and altered piano chords add depth. The sound of desert wind blowing enhances the track's introspective, otherworldly feel.

Hope you like this piece, folks.

"Gently Falls The Rain"
Valhjim 

Gently falls the rain in the cool garden
while the soft breeze the bough leaves kisses
with its wet lips. 

I inhale the scent, feel the drops
upon my skin, listen to the sound on the dry
leaves and the damp earth.

O gentle rain, wrap me up in your gentle
streams and your ecstatic sound, fill my lungs
with your cool scent, bring my soul 

to peace and joy. 

(Thanks to Martin Miers for his magic percussions)

Thanks for listening, folks,
and for your kind words.

Sad Bitch

Valhjim is a music composer with an eclectic approach to different genres: rock, pop, folk, New Age, and experimental electronic music. Greatly driven by imagination and poetic imagery, he combines multiple instrumental textures to fire the imagination of his listeners. 

His more experimental ambience and electronic music is built with layers of suggestive sound textures, rhythms, and melodic lines that stir the imagination into suggestive imagery and worlds unseen, true architectures of sound that open up limitless spaces to explore. Often Valhjim's melodies sail through genre thresholds, crossing over from one genre to another, from neo classcal to electronic, or from jazz to rock or new age.
