Claudio Melis 18 Posted January 13 Hi all, here's a brand new release by Where Orchids Goes to Die https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDRiuqkAdbk "This song narrates the story of Mogoro’s Maidens based on a traditional local tale. Every night, in procession, dressed in white, they pass through the street, which begins with the main church to arrive at “Su Cramu”. Detached from the others, there is a solitary maiden with wet hair. Along the path, she stops to speak to an old lady, sitting outside her home to get some fresh air during a hot summer night. She asks the old lady to tell her mother to stop crying for her death: her tears wet the maiden, making her heavy, holding her from reaching her sisters. Dedicated to who's gone and who stays." all music has been produced and recorded with maschine mk3 and komplete kontrol S49 Mk2 comments and feedbacks welcome best regards 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jack c. 115 Posted January 13 nice recording job.have the singer sing a second time and mix both voices together,or copy paste first track to another and that track move ahead a couple clicks as this will help with some intonation with her voice.jack c.

Claudio Melis 18 Posted January 22 lyrics: The street is so long city lights are far away I walk with this pain my feets as mug are glued to the ground Shivering like a wet little bird a small little bird in pain cannot reach its distant white maids small little bird in pain Tell mama don’t cry, don’t be sad my sisters went so far Tell mam don’t cry, to free myself her tears are drowning me I can’t go with them, cause I need to rest step after step, I can’t reach them look at my white dress and my hair is wet your tears slow down my steps Your tears are rain to me my eternal cage my desire to be free all the love you gave to me like the day I spread my wings finally let me go finally let me die Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeeringAmps 862 Posted January 22 (edited) Dark and foreboding, Claudio's trademark! Glad to see Where Orchids Goes To Die is (are?) alive and kicking... t "the band name seems gramatically wrong, but we use "Orchids" as an eponymous" So, if I read you correctly, even though the s in Orchids implies plural,Orchids is indeed singular in this usage...

Lynn Wilson 467 Posted January 29 This is so different that I'll go to bed happy tonight! A good example of art vs. commercialism. Thanks for putting up the lyrics, they're very interesting. I'll be listening some more. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
