a while ago

you have joined the stars

leaving me full of tears

far enough to overflow

letting me empty of dreams

a void bottle lost in the streams

a walnut hull buffeted by the swell

too late to ring the bell

i was a wreck sinking into the underworld

longing to flee to the upper one

masthead struck day after day

by a wave by a wave

a lonely castaway

digging its own grave

a robinson crusoe

without his friday

heart as the sails

shredded

life as the keel

shattered

after the thunderbolt

flowing wet salt

swirling tornado of questions and regrets

as sole answer the wind

so i write

day night

engraving dark thoughts in the white wood

until it burns or decays

until they fly away

to heal the wound

finally, the calm

  • aw this is lovely, love your vox

  • "Digging its own grave" should initially have been "digging his own grave". But this is "its" that came out naturally both when writing and recording. In the end, I find it better that way because it exacerbates the feeling and the will of disembodiment

  • Tranquil.

    You have genuinely become one of my favorite artists both on this platform and in music in general, everything you put out is not only has an amazingly consistent quality but a spirit and character. I've said this before but I'll say it again; amazing work.

    PS

    I never thought an 808 could sound so peaceful

    • Thank you so much bro, it means the world to me... I try to speak with my heart, I am glad if it reaches out to you.

      Actually, the main HiHat sound comes from the Tb303 with loads of sound design ;)

    • You should really do more vocal recordings too

  • I don't like my language watered down, I don't like my edges rounded off.

    Great work... although I can't really listen to this entirely since it has some of those freq's that just get me depressed.

    • Ah okay, I see! Yeah a lot of sadness, because it stems out of personal events. I have other lyrics ideas in mind that would sound way more positive, but not in my top priority of projects at the moment

    • You misunderstood. This triggers a sadness in me. There is nothing wrong with the mix!

    • Thank you bro. Yeah, I surely have a long way to go to improve in that kind of stuff

  • I see two forms of art here

  • I love the way you manage to combine poetry with ambient style. literature, poetry and music and technique. excellent.

    • Thank you mate <3

    • Thank you so much... You are an inspiration to me through your vocals, and actually encouraged me to take a huge risk with this track, so this means a lot to me <3

  • lots of artsy vibes from this one! the french accent elevates it lol, really cool

  • Amazing Amazing Epic!! :~) great work I love it, nice poem, just well done

  • solemn track. nice :)

  • sea foam voice reveal real

    but jokes aside this gives me such an ethereal vibe and your voice just fits so well with the sounds you've combined here holy jesus

    • I am more convinced by a negative deviation though 8)

    • I mean it requires either an excess or a lack of braincells to come up with the general idea, the meaning behind the lyrics, etc. imo, which is likely to be combined with a below-the-belt sound design. I am fully accepting the absolute deviation of braincells from the average in this concept, I only need to adjust some stuff to be able to fully vibrate the lyrics

    • of course man :>

      and do you mean messed up as in heavy lyrics or just a concept you're not fully accepting with yet?
