Cybèle

Cybèle is a deity of Phrygian origin, adopted by the Greeks and Romans, personifying the wilderness. She is presented as "Magna Mater", Mother Goddess or Mother of the gods. She is one of the greatest goddesses in the Middle East. I learnt about Cybele while working with volunteers of Cybele Planete. One day I had the inspiration to make this song. Cybele in imagery rides a lion and reminds of the goddess Durga of Indian culture. I find her power impressive and the song has the feeling of people marching with her to the heart of Nature.

EARTH SAVERS ARE HUMAN

This is a fusion of EDM, Classical, Pop and Alternative music. The song talks about the true savers of our Earth: Humans. The pandemic revealed our true selves. Essential and Health workers who were brave in the front-line of confronting this global scare. Nations donated repeatedly to others. Humans coming out to support the Black Lives Matter Movement from all works of life, color, decent and culture is yet another substantial proof that in solidarity, Humans and Humans alone are capable of making Earth a better place for all Humans.

Earth Cry

“Earth Cry”. The song is of massive contrasts. “The screaming planet”. It starts with the lead guitar screaming out in anger. It screams in protest throughout the song right at the point of distortion. “The harmonious planet”. The piano and strings portray a mellow planet. “The dependable Planet”. The jazzy rhythm guitar portrays mother earth as, dependable and solid. It is consistent in temperament and volume, even while the lead guitar is screaming in protest, the rhythm guitar does the opposite, restoring harmony and balance.
