"There is an abyss of being which man has never fathomed."

I stared. Chalmers had risen to his feet and he was gesticulating helplessly with his arms. "I am passing through unearthly angles; I am approaching—oh, the burning horror of it!"

"Chalmers!" I cried. "Do you wish me to interfere?"

He brought his right hand quickly before his face, as though to shut out a vision unspeakable. "Not yet!" he cried; "I will go on. I will see—what—lies—beyond——"

A sacred Choral piece with a contemporary feel.

Lux Aeterna Transiens (Passing Eternal Light)

These pleasures of the flesh
.....the treasures of excess-
.....greedy intellects,
they are a measure of my delights,
reading a good book by firelight. 
It's a wild book. It's a blue book.
.....I can't put it down.
Consider it good food for the soul.
.....The last time
I took a good look at myself I'd
not added a new book to the shelf.
But I'm hunting again, rediscovering
.....bookshops and libraries. 
.....I'm seeking out the words
to re-inform my growing absurdity.
It's a warning I've been warming to.
Been following the herd too long.
I don't need their conformity.
Oh god! It's the last thing I need-
.....uniformity,
.....dip stick conformity,
belonging to the wrong crowd.
From now on that's not allowed.
It's time for me to create
.....a total reinvention of myself.
OH! It's time to create
.....a total reinvention of myself.

(chorus)
I want to make my life my own-
.....be an individual
..........non divisible.
I don't want to be a clone.
OH! Take back my mobile phone!
My addiction for it has gone.
I don't want to be just a number
for life to do another number on.
I don't want to be just a number
for life to do another number on.

I want to make my life my own-
.....be an individual
..........non divisible.
I don't want to be a clone.
OH! Take back my mobile phone!
My addiction for it has gone.
I don't want to be just a number
for life to do another number on.
I don't want to be just a number

TRULY HIGHER (Acapella)

Desire

Canon Seraglio is an experiment of an album. I wanted to see what I could make that steered entirely clear of a recognizable genre. I decided to do away with all instrumentation, language, and style. All vocals, no words, no pitch correction. Rakugaki utterances in a mic. I think it came out sounding like music for a cult I haven't (yet) started. Enjoy.

The Longest Road" (Acapella)

"I am a forest, and a night of dark trees; but he who is not afraid of my darkness, will find banks full of roses under my cypresses."
