Another #live一to一tape #improv where I simply hit record in my "Live" Jeskola Buzz project & just started playing/singing whatever my Muse channelled through me. This time, tho, I was able to add a bit of synth to the song thanks to the wonderful Astral Dreamer VSTi by the late-great H.G. Fortune. I'm glad that my MIDI setup seems to be working a little smoother in Buzz at the moment, otherwise this song wouldn't have worked out in the same way. Maybe that means I should try & get my Mobius Looper VST working again? Well, that's an experiment for another day…
I hope you enjoy this Ꜫӿꝓƺᶉḭꬱἦꞓƺ

Lyrics
Reaching Out ===========
In the darkness Where no one goes In the darkness No one knows
I'll run through the night Into the shadows Seeking the light And the appearance Of what I know
Through the night I run Through the night I am In the shadows In another land Through the night I seek what's right Through the night I seek your hand I seek your hand
Please take my hand…

i really enjoyed this track, very open and spacious, leading into a meditative state. it didn't feel like eight minutes had passed :) the looped outro that slowly fades is stellar!!

Nicely done, lots of good sense of space and feeling of wandering in here, the ending adds to the effect as the voice fades away.
As you know, I love playing with space in my music, & this one did just that. Thank you, as always, for the listen & the great comment, Helio!

I love the panning <3 Beautiful lyrics from the Muse!!! I'm mostly sober these days but your music always brings me into that altered state of consciousness that not much else can. This song is a beautiful journey through the darkness, so well done.
