Description : i composed this song in a period where life came close to dying. It is an orchestral piece with some mainstream instruments in it that makes it a little weird looking at the theme in this track.
Composed in Ableton

Wow, this is beautiful. How can life so close to death sounds so beautiful....maybe it truly seems so when we are on that brink. I'd like to think eventually we discover that life here can also be just as lovely. I hope you find that lovely place here in the time left. The adventures of death will come anyway, so I'm personally trying to make the most of this temporary thing called life while I have it.

I had a time where i was close to dying as well. a couple actually. Some times i was at a place where i contemplated about taking my own life. But that's in the past! And times have gotten better! But yea man digging the strings, definitely can feel the emotion in it and what you must have felt at the time. Whether it's in the past or still resonating with you in so fashion now. I can tell you put your heart into this. And this is truly a wondrous track. keep ya head up, and peace out!

I had to home in on this one as "close to death" is a place i've been to in recent times.
From the sound of this beautiful piece your experience was a lot more peaceful than mine. This truly is a piece of shher brilliance. Love the combination of piano and strings. It really melts nicely into the drum section and ambient guitars which follow.
You've thrown together something well worth listening to here my friend and it has to be a fav for sure.

First i hope you are doing ok now, life is a bitch, nothing more and nothing less, and you deal with it how you have to deal with it, and there is no right or wrong it is just live that makes you spin in periodes.
Anyways, thanks for listening, and liking it, i hope it can lift you up one in a while.
Stay safe

Beautiful,lush soundscape in this song.The part where the drums come in and the guitar starts,that part is like flying with a glider in some canyon,looking the earth below.

Good to see that you are doing good again :) GOD bless you :)

Description : the other end of the scale from me, yep people, this is a ballad. its for all the people who have lost somebody long before their time was due,
i used my experience of tragic loss and how i hid my mental health issues that stemmed from it while writing it, its repetitive but has fresh verses
its to Matthias music Du Bist Nicht Mehr Hier almost the same title, He has suffered too that's why he wrote the music and dedicated it to his brother. i hope i have done it justice

Post script: The word "Ambient" has come up several times in the comment section for this, so I switched the genre to that. Thanks for the input. I really appreciate it.

Description : Depression and sadness can sometimes serve as motivation for creativity as in the case of this track. A few months back I went through a period of loosing a few friends and co-workers. Attended a few funerals and as a result found myself reflecting on life. One night I had the urge to try to transfer my feelings into music and this is what came out. Some baratone guitar accompanied by synth and accapella.
Final EDIT: Further tweaking on levels and a slight change up in the timimg of the choir section.

Description : Hello,
this is a track between composition and cover.
Amandine (Sova Berry or Dine on soundcloud) made a cover of the a cappella "Song of Sophia" by Dead Can Dance.
I liked it very much, so i decided to make an instrumental with her vocals.
Hope you'll like it and if you want to comment, you are welcome, whatever you think.
Bye
