Beautiful song, reminiscent of Pink Floyd in the best moments, as always your guitar is magical and also the ambient structure

"Solaris"
Valhjim

"Solaris" envisions the rising of the sun from dark to dawn. As sub-bass frequencies fade in, so the King Sol makes its slow appearance, supported by choirs and textured synth pads. Voices stream into a space fabric of color and timbres, intertwining, morphing, creating spaces where Sol moves in splendor. 

At the highest point, a vibrant sequencer section follows the sun in its voyage through the galaxy. A soulful electric guitar provides emotional intensity until the voyage of King Sol fades out into the galaxy. 

Hope you like it, folks.

Thanks for listening
and for your kind comments.

Thank God for good analog delays and tube amps.  And to Joe Walsh, Maurice Ravel, and Vince Guiraldi, all creative spirits in their own worlds.  The mixture of them is magic.

Bolero/Cast Your Fate to the Wind

I'll cut through the nonsense and offer a 3-minute song, canonical pop, based on an ancient formula from the birth of the genre. I'm deluding myself that it's in the vein of, say, Nick Lowe. I hope so.

In the Subway, you, in the Highway, I

""A Change Is Gonna Come" is a song by American singer-songwriter Sam Cooke. It initially appeared on Cooke's album Ain't That Good News, released mid-February 1964 by RCA Victor; a slightly edited version of the recording was released as a single on December 22, 1964. Produced by Hugo & Luigi and arranged and conducted by René Hall, the song was the B-side to "Shake".

The song was inspired by various events in Cooke's life, most prominently when he and his entourage were turned away from a whites-only motel in Louisiana. Cooke felt compelled to write a song that spoke to his struggle and of those around him, and that pertained to the Civil Rights Movement and African Americans."                         Wikipedia

A Change is Gonna Come-Sam Cooke (Cover)

Back to the present 😊... This is a quicky born from some serious emotion re connecting to my first band. The power of nostalgia is something else. The power of nostalgia wrapped in music for me is one of the most giant forces in the universe. We gotta use it to teach in my pea head opinion. How music helps us wire our brains is just different to everything else and I strongly believe the only reason it's not in schools yet more deeply is because we just haven't done that yet... Let's make it so! It literally can be a time machine for knowledge if we design it to be that!

Pure Path

Good master moments
Memories
Nostalgia
Reborn energy
Past power psychalgia
Lessons of love
Forever teams
Bands of humans
Fill our dreams

We've hibernated to screen
Turn around to scream
Oh fine door bells
Connect this scene
Those random visits
Outside of insular
Soothe simple figdets
Bond presence sprinkler

Stoned on door step
Crying for Kurt
Slagging each other
Seeding that worth
Memorable memes
Lost to computer
Ok, changed are those dreams
But they still needing suture

Here's to love
Here's to light
Here's to pure path
Let's forget the fight

Pure Path

make love not war -

the soldiers came for Lachy-oh
as the sun rose -oer our valley 
i beg my love dont go
for youll not return i know 
he turned away my Lachy -0h
my ribbon tied in his dark hair
then they march over the hill
onward brave to die or kill

mother moon cries tears of silver 
father sun cries tears of gold


all the day  the roar of war
mathched our cries til throats were raw 
sunset oer us now
 the bracken glows with blood
red soaked heather weeps
amidst bodies now i roam 
til my purple ribbon found 
and  somehow drag him home 

i laid him in the stony ground 
he died for - my lachy-oh
then i wade into  the water
to join my darling lachy-o 
something quickens deep within
will my child die for you
ill not let my love die in vain 
my darling lachy-o

purple ribbon

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.
