about

Music can be experienced in many ways. Some compositions are best observed and admired like works of art. Others are like a scent you wear. Then there are those that get under your skin, fill you up and become a part of who you are. There are as many ways to find music connection and understanding as there are souls. For me, the most intimate, "subcutaneous" compositions have always been the ones with calm, subdued vocals performed with acoustic guitar or piano accompaniment. I would like to start a cycle of such songs with the one called "The Song of a Dying Memory".

"Subcutaneous songs" is a collection of compositions not connected with Riverside or Lunatic Soul. It's an opportunity to create a different music world. Yes, it will draw influences from those known worlds but it will also be the beginning of a new path, a new dimension, a new way to search for peace.

The songs will be released once in a while. Detached from the framework of an album release, they shall resemble puzzle pieces, fragments of something bigger, which will take shape later. For now, let them be, let them exist, listen to them and let them enter your consciousness. And once there are enough of them, maybe we'll put them nicely together, combining them with a different form of art.

I hope you will find a part of yourself here.

lyrics

THE SONG OF A DYING MEMORY

Started to lose bit by bit
All I had left of you
All I had cherished and adored
Got blurry

I felt the kiss of the heat
Fading on your cracked lips
Whispers that had kept me alive
I ceased to hear

Stay with me
Just for another day
For I believe I love you still
Yesterday

Eyes of the rivers dried up
Denial fell apart
And like the iceberg melted down
Burnt by the sun

Dying of hunger that night
Somehwere on the ocean shore
Admiring colours
In the sky
The dream had gone

Stay with me
Just for another day
For I believe I love you still
Yesterday

Stay with me
Just for another day
For I believe I love you still
Yesterday

Mariusz Duda Warsaw, Poland

Hi. Perhaps you've heard me in Riverside, maybe you know me from Lunatic Soul. Here, in this place, I'd like to create a completely different music world, connected mainly with electronic music and, occasionally, with... songs :) Welcome!
