  • Eternal Aching

    Eternal Aching is a slow to medium tempo rock song by Andrew Charman-Williams

    Lyrics

    In the darkness of the night 
    I hear your voice so clear 
    Calling out my name
    But you’re not here 

    Oh, how I long for you
    My love, my heart is breaking 
    I’m lost without you
    In this eternal aching 

    I see you in my dreams
    But when I wake, you’re gone 
    I’m holding on to nothing
    But the memory of you 

    Oh, how I long for you
    My love, my heart is breaking 
    I’m lost without you
    In this eternal aching 

    I’ll wait for you forever
    In this lonely place
    I’ll keep your love inside me 
    Until we meet again

    Oh, how I long for you
    My love, my heart is breaking
    I’m lost without you
    In this eternal aching 

    Oh, how I long for you
    My love, my heart is breaking
    I’m lost without you
    In this eternal aching 

    In the darkness of the night 
    I’ll hear your voice so clear
    Calling out my name
    But you’re not here
    You’re not here
    You’re not here
    You’re not here

  • Hamlel

    Hamlel is a partly acoustic instrumental for Irish bouzouki and accordion by Andrew Charman-Williams.

    Even though this is the version with revised audio there are still some audio issues so I will think about re-recording it at some point.

  • Sadness – lyrics

    Lyrics for Sadness by Andrew Charman-Williams that are currently unused. They may or may not form the basis to a song at some point.

    Lyrics

    (Verse 1)
    In shadows cast by tear-stained skies,
    A tender soul in sorrow lies.
    Where heavy hearts bear silent pain,
    And whispered woes like falling rain.

    (Pre-Chorus)
    Yet in this somber, muted hue,
    A glimmer lingers, faint but true.
    For tears, a cleansing, healing stream,
    To wash away the pain, it seems.

    (Chorus)
    Oh, in sadness, we find strength,
    Through every trial’s breadth and length.
    With every tear, a chance to grow,
    To rise above the darkest woe.

    (Verse 2)
    In depths of darkness, sadness weaves,
    A web of sorrow that never leaves.
    Through valleys low, it gently creeps,
    And in our hearts, its presence seeps.

    (Pre-Chorus)
    Yet in this somber, muted hue,
    A glimmer lingers, faint but true.
    For tears, a cleansing, healing stream,
    To wash away the pain, it seems.

    (Chorus)
    Oh, in sadness, we find strength,
    Through every trial’s breadth and length.
    With every tear, a chance to grow,
    To rise above the darkest woe.

    (Bridge)
    And when the night seems long and cold,
    And happiness feels far too old,
    Remember, dear, through joy and strife,
    In every tear, there’s hope and life.

    (Chorus)
    Oh, in sadness, we find strength,
    Through every trial’s breadth and length.
    With every tear, a chance to grow,
    To rise above the darkest woe.

    (Outro)
    So let the tears fall gently now,
    For they’ll not drown us anyhow.
    For through this pain, we’ll find our way,
    To brighter skies, a brand new day. 

  • What if You’re Wrong – lyrics

    Lyrics for What if you’re wrong by Andrew Charman-Williams that are currently unused. They may or may not form the basis of a song at some point.

    Lyrics

    (Verse 1)
    In the quiet of the night, with stars up in the sky,
    I’m pondering the mysteries, the questions in my mind,
    What if the path I’ve taken, isn’t leading me back home?
    What if the truth I’ve known is just a tale I’ve always known?

    (Chorus)
    Oh, what if you’re wrong and I am right?
    What if we’re both lost in this moonlit light?
    We chase our dreams, like birds in flight,
    But what if you’re wrong, and I am right?

    (Verse 2)
    Through fields of wildflowers, we danced without a care,
    Your laughter was a melody that hung upon the air,
    But the shadows of uncertainty now cloud my restless heart,
    What if the love we built on dreams is bound to fall apart?

    (Chorus)
    Oh, what if you’re wrong and I am right?
    What if we’re both lost in this moonlit light?
    We chase our dreams, like birds in flight,
    But what if you’re wrong, and I am right?

    (Bridge)
    Can we find common ground, where our souls align?
    Or are we destined to forever question, to forever wonder why?

    (Verse 3)
    The wind carries our whispers as we speak of what’s to come,
    We’re drifting on the ocean, unsure of what we’ve become,
    But in this tangled mess of doubts, we find our hearts entwined,
    A glimmer of hope amidst the fear, a chance to heal, to realign.

    (Chorus)
    Oh, what if you’re wrong and I am right?
    What if we’re both lost in this moonlit light?
    We chase our dreams, like birds in flight,
    But what if you’re wrong, and I am right?

    (Outro)
    In the embrace of the night, we’ll find our way,
    Hand in hand, we’ll face the dawn of a brand new day,
    For in the end, it’s not about who’s right or who’s wrong,
    But the love we share that keeps us strong.

  • Lazy Sunday Arvo

    Lazy Sunday Arvo is a mainly acoustic instrumental by Andrew Charman-Williams.

  • Limits in the Key of 50Hz

    (Industrial Decay)

    Limits in the Key of 50 Hz (Industrial Decay) by Spiral Net (written by Andrew Charman-Williams) is a piece composed with certain guidelines in place. It takes influences from ambient, downtempo, minimalism and other styles and has elements of an industrial feel to it. It is not in standard western equal temperament tuning but in a scale based on 50 Hz which is between G and Ab and is the frequency of electricity in Australia.

    It was created from one single, fairly short sound sample with the additional limitations of the sample only being able to be modified by stretching, shrinking, reversing or trimming the sample and by the use of EQ. The sounds are tuned to a harmonic series based on a 50Hz fundamental with all harmonic series notes up to 1600 Hz. Following on from those limits means no synthesizer or other sound source was used with it just being direct manipulation of the sound sample.

  • Locria and Beyond

    Locria and Beyond by Spiral Net (written by Andrew Charman-Williams) explores the locrian mode before moving to the super locrian and then ultra locrian before settling again in locrian. Partly minimalist in nature this instrumental piece attempts to explore the unsettled and unsettling nature of locrian.

  • Lament III

    Lament III by Spiral Net (written by Andrew Charman-Williams) is the third in a series based on the lament bass. It is somewhere between ambient and downtempo with a slightly disturbing undertone.

  • Waves Upon Waves

  • Lament I

    Lament I by Spiral Net (written by Andrew Charman-Williams) is the first in a series inspired by but not restricted to the lament bass. It is an electronic ambient instrumental.
