You want to see the day
That everybody promised
A final reckoning
Our words meant so much to you
Their vital clarity
But tainted, your taste reveals
With the sun in your eyes, elated
Like the turning tide
In spite of stormy skys
In spite of sallow seasons
In spite of enclosure
A route that we never knew
Of roads that go nowhere
Of trails I'll tread with you
With the sun in your eyes, elated
Like the turning tide
As the sea heats
And the currents sleep
I'll stay here for you
As the seas rise
And the music dies
I'll be here for you

From that point of view
From that place of purity
Driven snow
Blood on the ground
Winter's waste descends
You hole up in harmony
Shatter sound
Stung by the snow in your eyes
If you want all that you claim
Look through the laws in your life
If you want all that you claim
Watch for your world turned to white
Doesn't take that long
Caught up in a moment's grace
Blinding light
Chilled to the bone
Molten grey reveals
Nothing but what we once knew
Left alone
Life of our world cast aside
If you want all that you claim
Look through the laws in your life
If you want all that you claim
Watch for your world turned to white
Then they know
That they can breathe deep again
When we're gone
Then they know
That they can breathe deep again

In Frost's Wake
03:00
|

Opened in your honour
Speechless, stranded, unseemly
Present in your echo
Woven web at dawn
Clings to me in rapture
Caught up in the world we've taken on
You said
We'd shine bright
Together
Our breath
In frost's wake
Untethered
Whispered hymns unheard
Shared between us in secret
Furtive on the tongue
Taste of morning dew
Taste of brine that escapes with you
Lingering like a look that lasts too long
You said
We'd shine bright
Together
Our breath
In frost's wake
Untethered

One Quick Trick
06:53

As the empty
Space surrounds
Scenes suspended
Won't sing aloud
Meeting no one
As he can't bare
To wait or wander
To stop and stare
Downtown, before the light
Soft words, fill our night, every night
They come in numbers
A countless horde
They fall to pieces
Without a board
They're seeking redress
They're seeking time
But not yours or theirs
Or hers, or his, and not mine
Downtown, before the light
Soft words, fill our night, every night
I'll pretend that your cold eyes can't see
And all the time you'll have one eye on me
We'll take our time but they won't wait for us
One quick trick and all of this is dust
Downtown, before the light
Soft words, fill our night, every night

AsterAqua Brighton, UK
After years of playing music with friends, AsterAqua is a Brighton-based solo
project.
But you're never really alone are you?
With little interest in social media and little time for self-promotion, the songs are cast out — but they'll always be there, and sometimes strange things happen.

AsterAqua recommends:
The track 'Running' from TSHA's Capricorn Sun album is great. The production is delicious, the hooks are plentiful, and it's unashamed in its joyous dance.

The Ombudsman has been prolific over the past couple of years. There is so much to enjoy from his catalogue, but for its sheer abandon stick on 'Next Year, We Take The Means Of Production!'
go to album
Sometimes when you're jamming with your friends you think you've produced something amazing. Then you sober up and realise you're well off the mark. 'Under No Nation' is the real deal. What a solo.
