  • CubeSounD – Silent Moon (feat. Lori)

    CubeSounD – Silent Moon (feat. Lori)

    Mysterious and epic, this tune is a transporter to other worlds. Transporter Songs aren’t easy to build. First of all, it takes a special kind of wind to move our soul’s sails. Mystic incantations can save us from the storm, but it’s Lori’s voice that fills the soul’s ethereal sails. Now, we’re prepared for the oceanic union underneath the guiding celestial bodies.

    “Will my feet touch solid ground again?”

    There’s no journey without waves, no life without vibration. The melody’s pulse is always with us – the patterned avatar of ocean waves. But just like getting lost at sea, a storm is in the making…

    “Playful shadows start to grow”

    We’re treated to an enticing array of sounds and instruments, orchestrations that make up the ship carrying her voice and the message it delivers.

    “Oh silent moon, don’t take me away too soon…”

    Because the owner of the label that brought me this Transporter is a personal acquaintance, I learned that this melody is dear to its creator. It’s not hard to see why. It’s not often emotion, rhythm and meaning make such good friends. And when it happens, you feel the Universe staring right back at you. This song was meant to be, and these words were meant to be written. And now you are meant to sail with this song.

    “Hidden from sight, in the intimate glow
    Playful shadows start to grow
    Fires on the lake dancing under the stars
    Found the secrets to our hearts

    Close to the flames,
    Lies the body of a dead man
    Who ate his soul?
    Did he die all alone?

    Just like we did in the days of old
    We drew first blood, then praised the Lord
    But even if I crack your elaborate plan
    Will you look into my eyes again?

    Time after time,
    We pass beyond and pay the dime
    To the ferry-man
    Will my feet touch solid ground again?”

  • The Dance of the Planets

    The Dance of the Planets

    Draw a line between the position of two planets every several days and behold the apparition of beautiful shapes:

    The article above lists some other funky coincidences about the planetary bodies in our solar system. It’s written in a slightly “new age metaphysical” tone, but facts are facts and these are undoubtedly interesting facts. Personally, what I draw from all the above is a feeling of complete agreement with what a wiser person has said before me: “Mathematics is the language of nature” (and I perceive even physics and chemistry as flavors of mathematics).

    Astronomy (the mathematics of huge congregations of atoms) is one of my oldest passions. I’ve been fascinated by our solar system since as long as I can remember. When I went to gymnasium, I learned about the endless curiosities that can be found outside it. But my main area of interest remains our cosmic neighborhood, where I see the sun and planets as childhood friends.
