about: A soundtrack for the contained. Of Airs and Grace started out as a musical background for a video but a communication breakdown saw it's initial destiny fall through. The track was then revisited and text was added to create an audible journey through a romantic storm.
Many thoughts went through my mind while composing and mixing this track. A mix of aggresion and yearning, some dusty memories with a distant feeling of loss. I set out to create a brooding yet languid soundscape bustled by the elements. While working on the final section a typhoon hit the city. The microphone was already set up so I recorded the storm and blended it in with the track.
Of Airs and Grace now belongs to you. I hope to have accomplished what I set to do and that this piece of me will bring some flavour to your lives.
lyrics: - Virgin Wreath -

He walked through the hidden garden at dusk.
Clipping a different flower from each bed.
With prying eyes he judged on shape alone as all colour faded with the rising moon.
His silent pace mingled with the shadows as he searched for symbols of love and sensuality.
Petals were folded upon themselves. Protecting from a darkening sky what they so openly offered to a glorious sun.
Their velvet texture was as black as blood. To the touch their soft cold surface aroused all the desires of a broken heart and projected the darkest of minds in to innocence.
A path to discovery was going to be revealed in the depth of night.
Yet, it was only only once the prize finding had been taken in to an illuminated home. That they would reveal their true colours.

...(From The Heartbeat Enigma)

They try so hard to control
Every sense of the soul
So calculated and cold
It beats the shit out of me

And when you try to be nice
They make you part of their vice
And if I didn't think twice
They'd beat the shit out of me

Yet with one look at their face
Adopting airs of such grace
Your every thought is displaced
That beats the shit out of me

A total loss of control
An angry twist in the soul
A 'yes' to put you on hold
That beats the shit out of me

And once all has been said
It seems you're better off dead
Just to get out of your head
That beats the shit out of me
