Sample Credits:
#Warder. Most of the
samples I`ve used are
his own handwriting.
Without his great work
and effort on those, my
song MIGHT NOT have seen
daylight at all.
Thanks mate!!
#Awesome. I`ve used his
drum samples that Warder
had taken into his song
called "Thanatos Minor".
#Nitzer. Three samples
have been taken from
his masterpiece, "The
Adventure". Absolutely
a great piece of music!
#Tourach. I`ve taken
one sample from one of
his unfinished songs.
IF U use any of these
samples, please remem-
ber to contribute the
rightfull owners for
them. Thank you!

Greetings:
Warder. Zealan. Tourach.
Awesome. Nitzer. Westis.
Purple Motion. Kriffin.
Wayfinder. Anders A.
.. and all the people
in the whole wide world
who like my music!!

"Snowflake"
Like snowflake on the sky,
I came into your mind,
I looked towards your eyes
and said your heart is mine,
you took a step behind
and told me I`m your kind,
right then I started smiling
and looked upon my darling.
- Milan
____
Emotions,
these earthly seeds of heavenly
paradise that you`re spelled upon
every once and a while ..
Devotions,
like an ocean full of whales swimming
among those drops of Eden, humming to one
another with the justified knowing of
belonging on the face of the earth that
mankind no longer deserves to have ..
____
The story?
Where did this song really got it`s inspiration
and the melancholy, it`s carrying force? ..
It`s a story of a boy and a girl,
the rest you might already know..
I am sure we`d all like to cherish our loved ones and to
think they`re something special between heaven and earth,
something precious, and actually that`s quite true since
we`re all different, yet at the same time all related.
Every single person whom you get acquinted with during
you`re life, you develope feelings, certain thoughts about
this person. There was one feeling that held a thought
with`in which I hadn`t had for a long time. I almost had
closed my eyes for seeking it`s existance, and nearly
completely had forgotten how it felt like ..
She basicly turned me upside down, and reminded
me that not all live is cold, unharsh, and full
of hatred, dishonesty and repulsive acts of human.
She reminded me how wonderful and precious life
actually is, and how we all take it for granted,
when infact no one owes us that blessing.
____
.v.i.s.i.o.n.s.
Why is it that we have the urge to create destruction,
deceives and lies with`in this garden of Eden which some
of refer as planet earth? .. Do we REALLY need guns, wars,
victims, casualties and misery to understand how vulnerable
mother nature is, and how significant we actually are.
My answer at the time would be "yes". We`re spending more
money in finding out more efficient ways to kill entire
nations than in solving the problems that are slowly, but
surely getting out of hands. In other words, we`re all in
this together, shame on all of us! There`s one thing I`m
glad about, and that is that we won`t be vanishing without
paying the price to all of this. The end is near, and it
won`t be pretty. We`re all part of this chain which in
the end leads to slow, but sure suicide of mankind,
suicide none of us really wanted.
____
.i.n.f.l.u.e.n.c.e.s.
Here`s some music that I feel obligated to mention as
like others, I also "drain" influences from the world
surrounding me, and from the music I love listening to.
First of all, Warder`s "Thanatos Minor" is something
I didn`t instantly fall in love with, but after some
period of time I got the hang of it, and experienced
the airy, yet still "pressurized" enviroment.
Once again I must thank Warder (the reincarnation
of Mozart?) for these terrific samples he had done.
Who knows if I`d have ever composed this song
without his inspiring pro-samples.
Awesome`s "For a New World" is truly beautiful too,
much more like my song than Warder`s, and maybe this
silently taught me to control the flow of emotions,
and to express them. A wonderful pop ballad!
Nitzer`s "The Adventure" is quite similar to the
mood and style Awesome`s song has, but this has more
of the same elements as mine does. Like in mine, the
piano plays an important role, and I could also almost
swear I can hear a story been told with every note
being played like it would be a word whispered
in the air. Again, one song you must hear!
Nightwish`s "Sleeping Sun". This is a commercial
finnish band, so you won`t find this at any scene
related site. Actually I have never liked heavy
music, but this wonderful (not-se-heavy) ballad
made an instant affection on me, exspecially the
female singer`s beautiful "opera" type of singing).
____
.closing words & thoughts.
It felt damn good to compose again to tell you the truth.
I`d compare this experience to holding your breath for
a minute and then slowly inhaling again. It sure does feel
good, doesn`t it? .. This was like a new discovery for
me with an old subject of interest. I think I`ve simply
come to realize that the key factor in making music is
that there`s no time, only space ..
Funny thing, I kept whistling my own song for the
first time in my life, and infact, I actually didn`t
remember nor realize that it was my own song
I kept on repeating ..
Another funny thing is how many of you have asked me
about my knowledge of music theory, and the simple
fact that I don`t have much knowledge of theory at all.
I know I`m not alone with this matter, since there are
many people just like me, composing music and that are
confronted with the same type of questions and amazements.
I`d like to learn more about theory, but at the same time
I can`t help to think that it might take away something
"untained" and "pure" with my work among music, in it`s
style and unique way of presenting it. Well, in any
case, music theory is an interesting field which
I am coming more aware of day by day ..
____
.t.h.e. .e.n.d.
This is all for now, but before I finish,
let me light a candle of hope to enlighten
your day. As you`re listening to the end of
my song, you can hear that it`s reaching out
for a better tomorrow as the melody changes
from melancholic to one that carries more
hope and belief inside ..

Mp3 file details
Open the waveform at full size (opens in a new tab)
- Scan status Whether the station’s analyser could read this mp3. “OK” means every number in this box was measured from the actual audio, not copied from a tag that somebody typed.
- OK
- measured from the file itself
- Scanned When the file was last analysed. If the mp3 is replaced afterwards, these numbers describe the old version until it is scanned again.
- File size How much room the mp3 takes on a disk, and how much data you use when you play or download it. It is roughly the bit rate multiplied by the length.
- 8.5 MB
- 8 928 852 bytes
- File last changed When the mp3 on our server was last written - usually the day it was uploaded, or encoded again.
- Length How long the recording plays. It is measured from the audio itself, so it is right even when a tag in the file says something else.
- 4:36
- minutes : seconds
- Tempo How fast the tune goes, in beats per minute - the speed you would tap your foot at. This was measured automatically by the station's analyser (ffmpeg and bpm-tools' "bpm"), not typed in by a person, so it is not guaranteed to be 100% accurate: tunes without a steady beat can throw it, and where it is wrong it is usually exactly half or double the tempo you would count.
- 197 BPM
- a fast tempo
- Bit rate How much data is spent on each second of sound. More data keeps more detail when the audio is squeezed into an mp3: 128 kbit/s is acceptable, 192 is good, and 320 is the most an mp3 can hold.
- 259 kbit/s
- high quality
- Sample rate Digital audio is a long row of measurements of the sound wave. This is how many are taken every second. 44.1 kHz is the CD standard and 48 kHz the video and broadcast standard - both capture everything a human ear can hear.
- 44.1 kHz
- 44 100 measurements a second
- Channels How many separate signals the file holds. Mono is one. Stereo is two - left and right - which is what lets a sound be placed somewhere between your speakers.
- Stereo
- 2 channels
- Codec The method used to shrink the audio. MP3 leaves out the detail an ear is least likely to miss, which makes the file about a tenth of the size of the original recording.
- MP3
- Loudness The average loudness of the whole recording, the way a listener hears it (“integrated loudness”, in LUFS). The closer to 0, the louder. Music services aim for about -14 and podcasts for about -16, so that you do not have to reach for the volume between tracks.
- −14.9 LUFS
- typical for streaming and podcasts
- Loudness range The distance between the quiet passages and the loud ones, in LU (1 LU is 1 dB). A small number means an even, compressed sound - good in a car or on a phone. A large number means big swings between soft and loud.
- 4.9 LU
- very even
- True peak The highest level the signal ever reaches, including the peaks that appear between the measurements when the file is turned back into sound. 0 is the ceiling: above about -1 dBTP, a recording can crackle (“clip”) on some players.
- −1.9 dBTP
- safely below the ceiling
- Dynamic range How far the loudest peaks stand above the loud parts of the recording, in dB - the “DR” number that music collectors compare albums by. A low number (under 8) means the sound has been squeezed until everything is equally loud: punchy, but tiring to listen to. 14 and up means the music has room to breathe, with real hits and real quiet. It says nothing about how loud the file is: turning the volume down does not change it. Chip music made of steady square waves naturally lands low.
- DR 10
- 9.6 dB · moderately dynamic
- Left channel level The average strength of the left channel over the whole recording (“RMS”), counted in dB below the loudest level a digital file can hold (dBFS). More negative means quieter. Compare it with the right channel.
- −17.6 dBFS
- average (RMS) over the whole file
- Right channel level The average strength of the right channel over the whole recording (“RMS”), counted in dB below the loudest level a digital file can hold (dBFS). More negative means quieter. Compare it with the left channel.
- −15.5 dBFS
- average (RMS) over the whole file
- Channel balance The left level minus the right level. Close to 0 dB means both sides are equally loud. More than about 1 dB and the whole mix leans towards one ear.
- 2.13 dB
- right is 2.1 dB louder
- Stereo width How strong the part that DIFFERS between left and right is, compared with the part they share. A very low number (-40 dB or less) means both sides carry the same sound - mono in practice. A higher number means a wider stereo picture; a very high one can sound thin on a single speaker.
- −6.5 dB
- ordinary stereo
- Cover art in the file Whether a picture is stored inside the mp3 itself. A player shows it as the album art when the file is played somewhere else - in a car, on a phone, offline.
- Yes
ID3 tags Text stored inside the mp3 file itself - title, artist, album and so on. It is what a music player, a phone or a car stereo shows while it plays the file, and it travels with the file wherever it is copied.
Measured from the mp3 file on our server by the station’s own analyser. Point at a label, or select its question mark, for what the number means.
