رسالة في الرمال Message in the Sand Market Test Demo – Single

Digital Market Test DEMO track to assess interest and support for the project.

DELETED TITLE. This title was deleted on release of the Full Album Project, though remains available for download and streaming due to popular demand.

Support was overwhelming leading to creation of the Full Album Message in the Sand. The Album is due for release on August 31st 2014

This track uses two fundamental different callings from the Middle East War Zone, the barrage of the pounding guns, and standing against that, the call to prayer. This song seeks to capture the Beauty and Horror of this conflict and balance them.

During the production of this track there was a news report of a Rebel Fighter in the middle of a firefight calling the Azan in an attempt to bring both the Government and Rebel troops to prayer. The beauty of this act, the seeking of peace and unity during such strife became the driving force behind the song. The Azan is a Turkish call form the border region, the symbolism of this was to highlight that bordering Countries to the conflict zone have been receiving refugees in peace and without judgement.

Music is the universal language that knows no tie to tribe, sect, faith, belief. Music is the one universal language that all people of the world can understand. In this song the message is clear.

Reflections – Single

Percussions and composition by Chase at Tank Drum ( www.tankdrum.com) & Andie Handei Kumafaro . Lyrics by Andie Handei Kumafaro. Vocals Fiona Luckie.

LYRICS:

impossible composure, Poised in the act of motion,
the look is caught, just a glance, unbroken.

Eternal projection, act, thought, need, turn the card to the light, eye’s glaze, twist of smile, memories over-write the faded edges, recoloring a life eternal the fragile reflection of the how it was, turning in my fingers.

the ever present picture of you, a reflection of you,
picture of you, the reality of you, so fickle and so faded,
pictures of you, reflections of you
reflections of you pictures of you.
ever present picture of you, a reflection of you,
pictures of you, reflections of you
reflections of you pictures of you.
pictures of you, reflections of you
reflections of you pictures of you.
pictures of you, reflections of you
reflections of you, pictures of you.

The underlying thing that defines the time we live in is That everything has been “SOLD” not just industry, jobs, futures and the ground we stand on,. More fundamental: The cultural commercial obsession with Profiteering also filters down to the very fabric of Society and our expectations at all levels.,. essentially right down to our very Heart Body and Soul..

Have you Ever reflected on the “Romantic Dream” everything from Disney to Bollywood, Mills and Boon and the eternal digest of pulp romance…? Do you ever feel like you have been cheated on the dream ? SOLD is the marker for our Time ,. Everything has been sold , including you. Follow our parody of characters, the Overseas Chinese, The East End Thugs, club and Pub hiphuggers, The sweet ebony opportunists, the reflective, solitary standing, the romantics and the Domestically Mistreated and through those threads ask yourself if Everything about YOU and Your personal relationships has been SOLD ?

Eyes Flick from the table to me, to the table back again
Eyes them reading me, looking to find the lines on my face that will tell she my story.

Fire light form the candle on the table dance on her cheek Make the skin there look like oil
Shifting colours, black to gold to purple and back to black Then all them colours there blend then change again and separate as the candle light it changing constant

Make me think this girl surreal, like her skin such sweet ebony perfection Can step off her bone and dance its intoxicating dance alone But I know that skin it lie me with a trick of the light

I sweet smile back and the eyes rise again to meet mine. Them eyes so white so bright there a contrast with the deep night of the girls fine face

Sweet Ebony Perfection Um hummmmmm Sweet Ebony Perfection Sweet Ebony Perfection

Like bright stars in the night, my eyes them home in on them And there all the layers come through Sweet Ebony Perfection Um hummmmmm Sweet Ebony Perfection

The girl she got deep night, she got bright light A marvelling combination to wynde them together there in this sweet ebony perfection

Bamboo Sticks:
Like bamboo sticks we lie, (still lithe), flawless against the moonlight
Like bamboo sticks we lie, Skin cold and hard in the night
I turn, I watch you by night, The flutter of your dreaming eyes (under your eyelids..)
Like bamboo sticks we lie, (still lithe), flawless against the moonlight
Like bamboo sticks we lie, Skin cold and hard in the night

像竹片一样我们静静地依偎在一起
月光漫过的肌肤
像大理石一样冰冷坚硬

像竹片一样,我们静静地依偎在一起
你的每一次呼吸都透着寒意

像竹片一样,我们飞快地成长
每一步每一次呼吸每一个吻都让我们更紧密
竹子的根盘结纠缠日益强大
我们对彼此过度依赖
爱情让我们迷失了自己

Like bamboo, Like bamboo, Like bamboo , Like bamboo
Like bamboo sticks we lie, (still lithe, still “lies”),
flawless against the moonlight
Like bamboo sticks we lie
Skin cold and hard in the night
I turn, I watch you by night
The flutter of your dreaming eyes (under your eyelids.. under your lies)
Like bamboo sticks we lie, (still lithe),
flawless against the moonlight
Like bamboo sticks we lie
Skin cold and hard in the night

我转身 看着夜色中的你
睡梦中的你眼珠在转动
你的嘴唇在沉沉的呼吸中被湿气氤氲
就像被削断的竹片 你已经变得脆弱而冷漠

你在睡梦中转身 在某个呼吸的瞬间你厌恶地背过身去
我想靠近你 触碰你 但已不再可能
我无法动弹 身体像水泥一样僵硬
所有的星辰已经陨落 你在曙光中慢慢苏醒
但你依然背对着我 像顽固的竹片一样对我视而不见
你忘记了我们的梦想 你起身兀自离开
我们就像竹片一样, 竹片
我们就像竹片一样, 竹片
竹片,
竹片,
竹片,

Home Calling,.
Far Away from home, in a stranger’s land. I open up memories of home and remember:
that sky through the window, that voice behind the door, that scent of bouquet,
that softness of the lawn, the notes in that book, the warmth of that cup of tea,
the longing of the thread, the touch of the needle, the richness of the wine, the memories of my mother’s cooking,The sound of familiar voice,the sight of loving smiles. With both laughter and sorrow, with hearts mingled as one.

Home, where warmth lingers, where safety is found, where burdens are shed, and your true self is bare. There a lamp that will always be lit, to guide your way back home.
Home, where love is freely given, and abundantly received. No matter where we go, or where we are, heart is where our family shall always dwell, where we call home.
Where there is love, there are the traces of home, Thus one makes home, wherever one maybe.
To come home, is to come back to a place where you will be loved, understood, and totally accepted. I am on my way home. Where are you ?

แก่นสารของชีวิต Key to Life Buddhism – Album

A Devotional modern Buddhist Buddhism Soundscape focusing on Siddhartha Gautama’s controversial rejection of classical divinity in favour of a self-salvation. The album essentially centres on the theme that there is no authority but yourself.

The essence of the Album is about finding your own feet, direction and road in life. A road where only we ourselves bear responsibility for our actions and choices and the absolute rejection of the concepts of pre-defined destiny, creationist dictatorship or law and government directive.

By looking at the collecting thoughts of the spiritually evolving Siddhartha Gautama and the journey that brought him to achieving the status of Buddha, we can open and see a path to enlightenment, without outside socio- religious dictates.

It is how we use our lives, our time that counts, not how long we have or even what time is We make choices, we chose a life of significance or insignificance. We can choose to make a life, Biologically so to speak, to make a child or to dedicate to a cause , to leave a legacy for others to follow.

When all is accounted for, do people remember Buddha for his scriptures and teachings or his children ? The assumption that immortality can be achieved through procreation and the bloodline is not necessarily true as infamy can also be immortality.

All life sickens, ages and dies, so what sets one life apart form others ? That lies in how we use our time ? As a guide we can reach out to the Holy Texts, for a story told father to son may endure as long as a bloodline, but a scripture message carved in stone will most stand for longer.

To write a life of Meaning, we have to have purpose and meaningful intent and that intent lies in balance. A yin and a yan symbiotically entwined one around the other.

06 Singing Buddha

Whether or not there were /are Divine beings doing what we presume divinity does, matters not at all to the Buddhist.Siddhartha Gautama quite uniquely from all other spiritual leaders stipulates that there is no master, or, authority but ourselves when it comes to matters of salvation.

So by following this ethic Siddhartha Gautama skilfully side stepped the whole creationist issue by laying a path that spiritual enlightenment lied squarely under a principle of self-salvation.

Alone and free of Classical Divinity, the possibilities are enormous, we cannot save ourselves if we are afraid of Death and retribution, in that realm Divinity rules.

Siddhartha Gautama creates the desire to accept Sickness, Age and Death as a passing to enlightenment.

He was, the first real threat to Organised Creationism the world had ever seen and as such, remains today the established foundation of Alternative Culture.

The impact of this culture socially and on the self being three fold –

– That Consciousness to Realization of the self leads to empowerment
– The letting go , or , Obliteration of all earthly desire, need, concern removes all agents of social control wherever they have been applied
– This Obliteration opens a path to true Enlightenment and personal
spiritual growth

message in the sand amended cover3

STORYBOARD:
The Album follows the journey of refugees out of war torn Syria into the border region camps and finally passing into Iran before resettlement as part of the refugee relief program. Based on and around real story’s and events the Album aims to raise awareness largely ignored and taboo subject of the plight of Refugees. While all Media focuses on the Political Religious Sectarian disputes in the conflict Message in the Sand focuses on the flight, traffic and journey of the victims of war, the people. both in the War Zone through to the Camps, and finally to the current Journey’s end, (re-housed overseas)

The story of the victims of War is a constant global issue. The album could have been focused on any number of conflicts, Chechnya or Yugoslavia, or Rwanda and many many other places. It has happened in history time and time again,. Syria is currently the battleground of warlords and power seekers and there story commands the Media. It is for this reason that the Story centers on Syria’s refugees, the silenced ones, the discarded, the ignored.

This Album is not an attempt to judge, take sides, claim right and wrong, be Political in anyway.

The unfortunate truth for the Refugee is that often there is as much danger in fleeing a war as in being a victim of the conflict on the field. Music is the universal language that all people speak and it is this hope that the message in the sand will be carried forward to all.

War is not the solution, solution, solution, solution,

There was a gas attack, a Chemical Attack in Syria, and a lot of people were, injured, and, and, and hurt,

and, and, hurt.

and, and, hurt.

and, and, hurt.

and, and, hurt.

So the UN had a team to investigate who did this Gas attack, this Chemical attack. The first time the team were shot, shot shot shot, shot. So we had to wait then they sent another team to investigate the situation.

The tension is already so so high.

The tension is already so so high.

It’s a very dangerous situation that we are in. What do people want ? What do people of all Countries want ? Security. They want their survival taken care of. That’s what we want. We don’t want to fight each other.

This is all about Governments against Governments.

Most people could very easily live together when they have everything taken care of. About when we have a house when we have enough food, when we have enough water, when we have a stable income.

It’s always the same shit.

It’s always the same shit. The Solution is not in Bombs, in missiles, the solution is to create a permanent world where everyone can live a good life, and only when we do that and stop this exploitative economy that makes poverty, and , and what do you call it, friction worldwide.

We’re not going to end any wars or any friction if we have these power games, if we have these money games, if we have this system of inequality that creates poverty, and creates people to see each other as threats, and, creates propaganda , false ideas, and about people, about groups of people and push people up against each other.

It’s always the same shit.

It’s always the same shit.

It’s always the same shit.

It’s always the same shit.

that creates propaganda , false ideas, and about people, about groups of people and push people up against each other, or believing that we have to be a certain way just to be good , but war is not the solution , not the solution, not, not , the solution.

War is not the solution , not the solution, not, not , the solution.

War is not the solution , not the solution, not, not , the solution.

معاون دبیر اول وزارت امور خارجه جمهوری اسلامی ایران، حسین امیر عبدالاهیان در انتشار بیانیهای اعلام فرمودند؛ که مرزهای با شکوه جمهوری اسلامی ایران برای کمک به دهها هزار پناهنده سوریه که در حال حاضر در ازدهام فراوان در کمپهای اردون هاشمی زندگی میکنند، باز میشود تا زمانیکه امکاناتلازم برای برگشت انها به مملکتشان فراهم شود.

The deputy secretary of the foreign ministry published his manifesto announcing that the borders of the Glorious Islamic Republic of Iran will open to receive ten thousand Syrian refugees currently lodged in a number of neighboring countries refugee camps. Housing will be provided until a relocation agreement can be brokered with other nations.

سازمان ملل متحد، پیش بینی مکند که اگر اغتشاشات سوریه به پایان نرسد تعداد پناهندگان به بیش از یکملیون و یکصد هزار نفر خواهد رسید.

استغلال العبد

(Men come to the camps, they come from many places, Saudi Arabia, Qatar Jordan. They follow our Daughters home and ask us to sell our daughters for marriage to them. Some families make girls accept Marriage proposals. The money helps to pay for rent, for food. Girls accept marriage proposals from strangers. They have suffered greatly and they look to marriage or protection, shelter, money clothing. The things they have lost through the war. For Young Girls, some as young as ten years old, It is very dangerous. Girls have been kidnapped. They choose Marriage for protection.This is exploitation of the people.)

Lyrics Translation from Syrian Dialect to Contemporary Arabic

رجال قد اتو الى المخيم , قد اتوا من بلاد مختلفة , السعودية , قطر , الاردن . اتو من وراء منازل فتياتنا وطلباَ منا لكي نبيع فتياتنا للزواج بهم . بعض العائلات يجبرون الفتيات على القبول بعروض الزواج . المال يساعدهم لدفع الاِجار, ولاجل الطعام .

الفتيات تقبل عروض الزواج من الغرباء .قد عانَيْنَّ كثيراً وهم الان يتطلعون للزواج او الحماية , المأوى , المال واللباس . الاشياء اللتي فقدوها جراء الحرب.
بالنسبة للفتيات الصغار , بعضهن صغار بعمر العشر سنوات , انه امر خطير جدا . فتيات قد خطفن , اخترن الزواج لاجل الحماية.

خَطَفُوهُمْ , بِنْتين , لا تَلاتِه . وَئْتْ رَجَعُوْهُم كَانُو يَائْسِينْ . صَارُو يْفَكْرُو بِلْ اِنْتِحَارْ . هَادْ الشِي عَبِصِيْر دَائِمَاً .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ .فِيْ بَنَاتْ عَبِخَلُوْهُمْ يْشْتِغْلُو بِلْ دَعَارَه .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ.

(They took them, 2, no I think 3 girls. When they brought them back they were depressed. They talked about suicide. It happens all the time. We are in danger. Some girls are made to work as prostitutes. We are in Danger.)

Lyrics Translation from Syrian Dialect to Contemporary Arabic

قد اخذوهم , اثنتان ,لا بل ثلاثة فتيات.عندما اعادوهم قد كُنًّ محبطات .تكلمنًّ عن الانتحار.ان ذلك يحصل دائماً.نحن في خطر .بعض الفتيات قد اجبروا على العمل في الدعارة .نحن في خطر

Survivors are very reluctant to report rape due to extreme and restrictive cultural values and stigma. Survivors are very unlikely to seek support due to the risk of being killed by their families, shame and fear of facing a continued cycle of physical and sexual violence including honor killing, survival sex, increased risk of early and coerced marriage, domestic violence and risk of suicide are all issues of concern. Fundamentally Women do not have safe access to reliable services and support.

Persian (Farsi)

جسد ۳دختر جوانی که به منطقه امنی در ایران فرستاده شده بودند، یک روز بعد از رسیدنشان در حالی که خود را حلق اویز کرده بودند، در جنوب ساختمانهایی که به انها مکان داده شده بود پیدا کردند.
احتمال میرود که این ۳نفر تحمل شرمساری تجاوزی که به انها شده بود نداشتند و دست به خودکشی زدند.

(Unable to bear the humiliation and social stigma attached to rape, 3 refugee girls who had transferred from camps in neighboring countries to safe facilities in Iran were found hanged south of the housing blocks the morning after arrival. An open verdict of suicide in all three cases has been recorded.)

Rape is becoming increasing widespread throughout the Syria fallout conflict zone. One new study reports that rape has become so prevalent that it is a factor in driving thousands of Syrian families into exile.

Syrian Dialect Arabic

هَادْ الشِي عَبِصِيْر دَائِمَاً .نِحْنَا بِخَطَرْ

(We are in danger, it happens all the time)

. صَارُو يْفَكْرُو بِلْ

A Flower in the Desert,
Hanging from the Tree
Blood Red ,. Shifts still uncomfortably

A Flower in Desert,
Plucked from Life,
Twitching still on failing sunset breeze

A Flower in the Desert
Body Broken, Stripped in rage
Neck wrenched painted red in unnatural Shame

A Flower in the Desert
Eyes plucked clean,
Worn on Crow’s Claws , ornaments and rings

A Flower in the Desert
Condemning still
Unlawfully desecrated, Bartered for a meal

A Flower in the Desert
Vain curses voiced
violation, rape betrayal of youthful joy

A Flower in the Desert
Bodily forget,
Seek Peace in Death
Feeding the dust in tainted regret

A Flower in the Desert
Guilt for silver changing hands
Death cheats the deal the never has

A Flower in the Desert
Mournful Release
Violent Violate bodily disbelief

Heed not the breathless whispers
Nor voices do the dead dispose
Heinous acts against innocents
Crimes never to be disclosed

Frenzied, Hateful unfathomable desires
Claim and Consume the fruit of youth
Nothing left but the rotting knot
Upon the asphyxiating rope of truth

These are the victims of war
Forever lost, the brightest lights
These are the Victims of war
Mankind chose a Dominion of Violence

09 Contemptuous Eulogy مديح للازدراء

Persian (Farsi)

رئیس جمهوری ایران حسن روحانی اعلام کردند که؛
جمهوری اسلامی کمکهای انسانی خود را به سوریه ادامه میدهد.

(In July, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani underlined that the Islamic Republic of Iran would continue dispatch aid to Syria)

رئیس جمهور اقای روحانی فرمودند؛
در شرایط سختی که در مردم سوریه در حال حاضر بسر میبرند، دولت ایران کمکهای انسانی و همکاری خود را به انها ادامه میدهد، در حای که مخالف اغتشاشات در مناطق اشغال شده در سوریه است.

(President Rouhani was reported to have confirmed that due to the difficult living conditions of the Syrian People, the Iranian Government will continue distribution of humanitarian aid to Syria, though remains steadfast in condemnation of hostile acts in the region , specially related to Syria.)

Iran has staunchly backed Syrian President Bashar al-Assad with Military and Financial aid since an anti-regime uprising first began in March 2011 and regards the Syrian opposition groups as terrorists being backed by Western and Arab countries and as a result the main driver behind the refugee crisis is Syria.

(President Rouhani was reported to have confirmed that due to the difficult living conditions of the Syrian People, the Iranian Government will continue the distribution of humanitarian aid to Syria, though remains steadfast in condemnation of hostile acts in the region , specially related to Syria.)

Iran’s deputy foreign minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian was reported to have warned strongly against any foreign interference to impose change in Syria.

دولت ایران بارها همکاری خود را برای برقراری صلح در سوریه و باز کردن راه برای مزاکرات بین دولت و مخالفان دولت و بر قراری دولتی مستقل و ایجاد ارامش در خاور میانه اعلام فرمودند.
دولت ایران نمایندگان دولت سوریه و مخالفان این دولت را برای مذاکره و پیدا کردن راهی برای خاتمه جنگ و بر قراری صلح در این منطقه به ایران دعوت شدند،
که این کنفرانس در اواسط نوامبر با شعار جنگ نه، ازادی بله، اغاز شد.

(Iranian officials have underlined that Tehran is in favor of co-operation and negotiations between the Syrian government and opposition groups to create stability in the Middle East. representatives of the Government of Syria and opponents of the government were invited to Iran to negotiate and find a way to end war and establish peace in the region.The National Dialogue conference kicked off work in Tehran mid-November with the motto “No to violence, Yes to Democracy”.)

Iran has stepped up support on the ground for President Bashar al-Assad, providing elite teams to gather intelligence and train troops, US reporting sources advised today. This further backing from Tehran, along with deliveries of munitions and equipment form Moscow is helping to keep Assad in power at a time when neither his own forces nor opposition fighters have a decisive edge on the battlefield.

While the presence of Iranian Military personnel in Syria is not new, US military experts believe Tehran has in recent months sent in more specialists to enable Assad to outlast his enemies at home and abroad.

A former senior Iranian official with close IRGC links said Iranian forces were active in the area. These include senior commanders from the elite Qud’s force, the external and secretive arm of the powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as well as IRGC members.

The evidence indicated hundreds of Iranian advisers and trainers were in side Syrian at any one time. These figures could not be verified from Syria but the deaths of at least two IRGC commanders in Syria have been reported publicly.

سازمان حقوق بشر، برای اسکان پناهندگان در خارج از مناطق اشغال شده به ۱۷ کشور که فرانسه و المان هم جزو انها میباشد، برنامه جدیدی را اغاز کرد.

The UNHCR were today reported to have launched a Refugee relocation program to 17 Countries outside of the affected area including France and Germany.

Cela fait trois mois qu’ils sont arrivés en France. Pour la plupart, la violence et les combats ont détruit leurs villes et villages et les ont force à quitter leur pays. Depuis ils ont successivement traversé la Jordanie, l’Iraq, l’Iran et suite a un programme de relogement a l’étranger ils sont finalement arrivé à Paris; un total de 126 familles.

(They arrived in France 3 months ago. For most of them war and violence have destroyed their homes and lives and forced them to flee there homeland. For 126 families, since leaving home they have had to cross Jordan, Iraq and into Iran and finally thanks to an overseas rehousing program, they have arrived in Paris.)

Il se retrouve chaque jour dans le parc de Saint Ouen. Depuis trois mois leur nombre ne fait qu’augmenter. Dans le parc on découvre des gens affamés, épuisés et malades, on voit des enfants en bas age et des femmes enceinte.

(Everyday they gather in the Saint Ouen Park where we find them suffering from starvation, dishevelment, neglect, illness among theer number there are young children and pregnant women. month on month the numbers just keep increasing.)

La plupart de ces refugiés ont déjà déposés des demandes d’asile mais la question du logement pose problème. A proximité du parc, l’hôtel accueil quelques familles, mais les solutions manque. Chaque jour, pour les associations bénévoles c’est la course Contre la montre pour s’assurer que personne ne dorment dehors, mais la situation est de plus en plus difficile a gérer. Face à cette situation d’urgence, les mobilisations grandissent et les associations appellent l’état à réquisitionner un lieu d’accueille pour héberger ces familles.

(Most of the Refugees are seeking asylum status, but housing remains an issue. Some families have been put up in a small hotel on the outskirts of the park but solutions for all are hard to come by. Charity’s run vigil to try and ensure no one gets left sleeping rough and support for action grows. Charities are calling on the State to become involved and provided a solution to the housing crisis.)
