Sam and I are overjoyed to share this new mix with you: “Open Up Your Heart”. This song was birthed while Sam and I were improvising during a live set. We have had many special opportunities to explore this improvisational space together and in this particular session, these simple yet profound lyrics landed through Sam and deeply touched me. I decided to follow the general idea and we developed it into this song. We then invited our dear sister Matia Kalli to offer her incredible vocals to the mix. It has been one of my favorites to share live over the last year in my sets all around the world. It’s incredible to see how it opens people up to receive more love as we drop deeper into the present moment together.

Your Love 
is Like Water 
Falling into Water 

'Water into Water' is the first birthing of sounds 
which have been dreaming me for more than 10 years. 

This track was inspired by the waterfalls in Maui. 
It came to be after meeting photographer David Talley, 
creating this image of the waterfall in Portland. 
The photo process motivated me to crack open 
and complete this song to go with it. 

Special thanks to the teachings 
inspiring my mind 
to become crystal clear 
as thoughts appear 
like water falling into water 

Gratitude to my Beloved, 
who's mythic love 
inspires my heart 
with these musings

Water Into Water- Marya Stark + Daniel Berkman

“BAD ON PAPER” is a raw, unapologetic  album — a poetic rebellion against the labels, judgments, and systems that try to define US. It’s part confessional, part manifesto, blending sharp lyricism with experimental production to tell the story of a person who doesn’t fit expectations but refuses to shrink. Every track confronts identity, survival, and freedom with emotion that’s both intimate and defiant.

MURDER

It's Written in the Wind

In an old poem,
In the lining, 
Of a double helix.
Only one switch, 
Of the sequence,
Can remind if you wish.
Not from without,
But from within,
The spectrum turns to white.
True devotion,
If you listen, 
Is written 
In the wind.

Does desire 
Rule the mental,
Turning truth into a fool?
No time in silence,
No time to listen, 
No eyes to see it through?
Not from without,
But from within,
The spectrum turns to white.
True devotion,
If you listen, 
Is written 
In the wind.

Come up now, 
To the mountain,
Where the air is sweet.
It is there that the wind sings, 
The voice, 
of wisdom speaks.
Not from without,
But from within,
The spectrum turns to white.
True devotion,
If you listen, 
Is written
In the wind.


It's Written In The Wind

OOOoooOOO

Like the Potter
Spinning time,
Like the Weaver
Weaving lines,
Like the writer
Take time,
In this moment
what will you find?

Feel the heart start 
The unheard cry,
Only darkness
Seeds the light,
May you open
See beyond,
The Fruitful Seed
Seeks the sun.


May You Open

Inner Worlds

Balance
Balance & Exchange
It’s all just Balance

As the roots of the tree,
Equal it branches,
So do our Inner-Worlds,
Match the outer-worlds.
Balance

Balance

As the leaves of the tree
Nourish the roots
Does the mind when set free
Realize the truth

Balance
It’s all just Balance
Balance & Exchange

Like the air through the branches
Like the wind on the leaves
Learning how to bend
Learning how to mend
In the breeze.

Balance
It’s all just Balance
Balance

Inner Worlds

Start Anew
Begin Again
Seeds are carried,
By the Wind....

Evolution
