Worlds Await Listen on: Bandcamp

Circlejourney ✑ Bandcamp about blurb

Music is amazingly compact. It is strange how twelve hours of work could go into a four minute track. It's as if one could hide an entire world within each.

And that's what I feel music is. Hearing a new piece of music is like discovering a new world, feeling its wind and basking in its honey sun.

This album features no shortage of works inspired by fiction: tributes, rearrangements, commissions and tie-ins for my projects. But more importantly, each track here is a place captured in sound, and I hope you can discover it as you listen.

Spin Listen on: Bandcamp

Circlejourney ✑ Bandcamp about blurb

This was composed as a tie-in for my novel project Revolving Door. Through the shifts in style and mood, and the interaction of theme melodies, I try to recreate personalities and relationships of various characters in musical form, telling a multiplicity of stories.

Vesper Listen on: Bandcamp

Circlejourney ✑ Bandcamp about blurb

An extension of the fourth theme featured in Spin, belonging to the character Vesper, a soldier who has devoted her life to service and whose leaderly drive is rivalled only by her loyalty.

Time Corridors Listen on: Bandcamp

Circlejourney ✑ Bandcamp about blurb

A maze that leads through past and future. A chase by a nameless entity yet to exist.

Guiding Light Listen on: Bandcamp

Circlejourney ✑ Bandcamp about blurb

Another tie-in for Revolving Door, this time relating to a chapter of the same title. A girl has just been saved from prison by a young man she does not know (and a rather well-dressed one, at that), and he is taking her to see the city she has not laid eyes on for years.

MIDNIGHT BLACK Listen on: Bandcamp

Circlejourney ✑ Bandcamp about blurb

I relate this piece to a certain black-haired Mage in Of the Dragon, of the Stars.

Frost and Clockwork Listen on: Bandcamp

Circlejourney ✑ Bandcamp about blurb

My tribute to the webcomic Homestuck, which changed me in the best way. The melody came to me while I was reading, and the title is a reference to the names of two characters' planets.

Over the Hills Listen on: Bandcamp

Circlejourney ✑ Bandcamp about blurb

A circling dance, a ritual fire, a folk tune sung to drums and wine. Somewhere over the hills.

The theme for Zethis, the White Knight in Of the Dragon, of the Stars, evoking the pastel colours of morning.

Unsaid Listen on: Bandcamp

Circlejourney ✑ Bandcamp about blurb

Written for my a midterm assignment Flash comic. It is the culmination of a story about friends who have grown apart, to the point that they cannot utter a sincere goodbye though one is about to leave the country.
