Great track Jim, and as always a pleasure to play drums!

beautifully epic and flying-to-other-worlds-moody track

Exquisite voices, a psychedelic, medieval masterpiece 👌

oh yes, Poe is a wonderful source of inspiration. I love his fantastic stories. You did a great job with the music

This one is exquisitely organic, almost like a breathing life force. Eyes closed, images flow, carrying you to faraway worlds.

Great illustrative music. A bit like a combination of "Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii" with the Diablo soundtrack. This is such a loose comparison but I love both so I think it's enough :).

"Silence: A Fable"
Valhjim

"Ours is a world of words: Quiet we call  
Silence -- which is the merest word of all"
                                     -Al Aaraaf.

 "The waters of the river have a saffron and sickly hue --and they flow not onwards to the sea, but palpitate forever and forever beneath the red eye of the sun with a tumultuous and convulsive motion. For many miles on either side of the river's oozy bed is a pale desert of gigantic water-lilies. They sigh one unto the other in that solitude, and stretch towards the heaven their long ghastly necks, and nod to and fro their everlasting heads. And there is an indistinct murmur which cometh out from among them like the rushing of subterrene water. And they sigh one unto the other."

--Edgar A. Poe, "Silence: A Fable (published 1838).


Dear listener, I hope you like this experimental piece inspired by Poe's mysterious tale.

Silence  A Fable - Valhjim w/Martin Miers

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.
