FAWM: "Twin flames"

Twin flames

Liner Notes

#folk #experimental #indie #mandolin #electricguitars #dreampop #altrock

Its been a tough year relationships wise , full of emotion swings and more, but the pain and difficult times have produced so much understanding, learning and insights. There's so much we bring to relationships that often is from hidden past traumas or struggles, so to recognise those with someone and to be vulnerable and honest around it truly opens up a new wonderful space, even if one's been in a relationship for a long time.
So this is me just recognising a few things from the last year in relationships, and in many ways being pretty humbled by the depth of connections and feelings.

Musically, i not too happy and could prob do more with the drums and the variety. It started out as a fairly simple folk repetitive riff on the mandolin based tune, but i felt it needed a bit more.

Lyrics

I crumble in her gaze
I tumble with the haze
then i fall down
then i fall down
a process to wall the maze

A contract has been made
universe makes us wait
Till i come round (to feel more)
a testing ground (to be trust)
to release a known old game

So when you fall
scrambling those walls
can you let that grip fade
So a new day
can feel my soul say
can we listen to save our child's own way, releases pain

I come back round - i see you fall
I'm run aground - you stand so tall
then i am found - up build more walls
my head falls down - you glow from the call
the lost and found -its the same path
to feel it all - in the same cup
so lets come round to be annica
fill our world

be the heart, not the head

Always the magic with you`re songs. This one is really moody! Love it.

Loving the sentiment, your exposure the initial simplicity, then how it builds. Great tune.

@nadine 1w

What a journey! I enjoy the soundscape and production of this one a lot. So far my favourite from you this year

@tan482 1w

The opening drew me in straight away. You have created such a rich soundscape and I love your vocals!

@emmyhush 1w

I just love this so much, I love the changes of pace, the warmth of the intention of the lyrics, the vocal layers. I hope writing it brought some clarity around what is going on in your life! x

Oh wow, all those acoustic arpeggios are amazing. I love your chord choices and the tone really shines so richly. Brass! unexpected and sounds great. Man, this is really fantastic. So anthemic and great, memorable melodies. I'm really glad it returned to the acoustic bit at the end cos I wanted more of that. I reckon an extra couple of minutes with an extra breakdown in the middle would go amiss in this tune. More is more!

I love how spacey this is, and when it kicks in and gets tighter about halfway through that's extra satisfying!

@pippa 1w

This is magnificent. The big production suits the climb and fall of the words and the big energy or synergy that's happening. I like your singing too.

@alphagal 1w

Wow. Dude. What a gem! Totally caught me off guard with the high melody at the get go. Fucking love this psychedelic vibe and production! So washy, but then the percussion busting thru... The lyrics are so ambiguously awesome. And thank you for your vulnerability and wise thoughts on the liner notes. I'm sorry it's been a tough year for you.
