The Paper Sea – Centésimo Saudade (Spotify)

June 9th, 2021|Audio, Neoclassical, The Latest|

“-Centésimo Saudade- like a morning flower; only the rays of the sun will slip through the thickness of the clouds, as its petals bloom and celebrate the arrival of a new day. A wonderful symphonic composition filled with light. A striking example of the fact that behind dark clouds lurking certainly illuminating everything around the sun.”

“-Centésimo Saudade- подобную утреннему цветку; только лучи солнца проскользнут сквозь толщу облаков, как его лепестки распускаются и празднуют пришествие нового дня. Прекрасная, наполненная светом симфоническая композиция. Яркий пример того, что за тёмными тучами непременно скрывается озаряющее всё вокруг солнце.”

Mushroom Grove Jig, by Daniel Núñez Martín (Video)

June 9th, 2021|Neoclassical, The Latest, Video|

“The dark atmospheric ambience holds a promise of danger, a suggestion of encounters that could take place at any time. The percussive elements reinforce the ever building air of playful suspense. A perfect backdrop for a game of jocular, yet sinister magic, mystery & suspense. In parts reminiscent of the classic Final Fantasy. ”

This track was composed for the background music of the levels of the fourth world of the “Magic Twins” video game. These levels are visually represented with a shadowy forest at the background. This is a version of an earlier song in dark mood. It had to represent the delirious, fun and joking attitude of the protagonists of the game. This song is designed to be listened to in an infinite loop.

“Magic Twins (The Original Soundtrack) is the soundtrack of the video game “Magic Twins”. It’s a cooperative arcade puzzler featuring two cute witches that must stop the Colormageddon they unintentionally unleashed.

Njordlyd – Circles (Spotify)

Njordlyd 'Circles' is a magnificent mellow yet dark ride
Njordlyd is a Danish musician and producer of thoughtful and mellow musical landscapes, organic compositions, and harmonies, combined with experimental rhythms and microsounds.

www.avaliveradio.info/featured/njordlyd-circles

here is a long story to this track. It all started with a combination of a few sounds, which to me has a sort of “circling” effect. However, the sounds also reminds me of a magnificent “Circular Ride” (dark ride) from an Amusement Park in Copenhagen (Denmark) called “The Flying Trunk" (in Danish: Den flyvende Kuffert) and consists of a “continuously-moving” chain of vehicles (trunks). During the ride, the visitors pass several scenes displaying/depicting fairy tales from H.C. Andersen. The beginning and the end of the track resembles boarding and disembarking.

Everything in between resembles various “scenes” or “rooms”. How the “scenes” or “rooms” are interpreted is entirely up to the listener and is not necessarily meant to resemble the fairy tales from the “Circular Ride”.

I have an emotional connection to this track. Tivoli is a place I visited pretty often with my family. The attraction opened in 1993, the same year my mother was diagnosed with cancer. She died in August 1995, and this attraction is one of many strong memories connecting to her. This was not really what I imagined at the beginning of the process of making this track; however that is how it developed. Recently featured in the Songwriters Music Journal

  • Limón Limón - Still In The Dark (Spotify), Blogwave music genre, Nagamag Magazine

Limón Limón – Still In The Dark (Spotify)

June 9th, 2021|Audio, Blogwave, The Latest|

“A catchy indie pop tune with a distinct retro feel. Driven by a classic 808 drum machine & the warmth is provided by the Phill Colins like vocals & lush vintage synths. The guitar & bass also have that classic 80’s pop vibe. Extremely well produced, ‘Still In The Dark’ by Limón Limón will definitely appeal to lovers of the mainstream charts music of that era.”

-Nagamag.com

Limón Limón is back with “Still In The Dark” which recalls the end of a failing relationship, leaving both sides running from the pain of an eventual breakup. The song depicts a late night drive without a destination, lost in emotions, searching for the courage to move on. Heartfelt vocals are blanketed by the warmth of vintage synths, woven together with rhythm guitar and fueled by the beat of a classic 808 drum machine. LANY meets Phil Collins in this 80s inspired tune with an indie twist.
