SHINE YOUR LIGHT
Singularity is the term that best describes humanity in todays screen and privacy times. Still, we can't shy away from role to play in advancing social change. Whether it's to make people laugh, put them on, pick them up, write or sing a moving song, leave a positive comment, make art, or whether it is to raise a child, love a person, work in an organisation, or lead a group of people, we are all unique at something, and colourfully so. Every effort we make to be our best selves & love ourselves is consequential. Everything affects everything.

THIS IS THE WAY (T.I.T.W.)
Inspired by the devout complex of the Star Wars Character 'The Mandalorian', this song is an exhortation on values, commitment, responsibility, morality and honour. The world has enough history in it to furnish us with enough knowledge of how we shouldn't act and also how we should act. This song is about how we should act.

Why Do They Keep Us Away
“Why Do They Keep Us Away,” aims to empower women and all of humanity by highlighting the persistent challenges women face regarding their inclusion in various societal spheres. It is a wake-up call to all of humanity that this is an ongoing and pressing issue. The song carries a hopeful message as the images of breaking strings and chains interplay with the notion of reaching together new heights. The bilingual (Spanish and English) piece emphasizes the oneness of all people and the inseparable nature of our essential being.

Fly So High
This is a song that conveys hope and fellowship in times of war and human conflict. We are all affected by the great scale of violence and injustice that exists in our world today and it is necessary to unite, to build on love and peace all the time, going forward. Defending our rights, or changing what we need to improve requires accepting that the road is challenging. We are all involved because we are humans and live in the same society. With courage and unity we can achieve what we want.

Precipicio
"Precipicio" is a song about an inner conflict that arises in the seek for the meaning of life. The first verses describe how it feels to start this journey: being lost, the need to find answers in multiple places and not finding what is desired. When the song lead into the chorus, the music and poetry are transformed into a desired path of understanding in which there are simple and essential things such as: air, sound and fire. The conflict is finally resolved with the realization that the meaning of life is closer than one might expect.

Madrigal
“Think of those flowers you plant in the garden each year, they will teach you that people too must wilt, fall, root, rise, in order to bloom” - The Sun and her flowers, Rupi Kaur This Argentinian - Palestinian collaboration steps into the war zone, where the lines of suffering, hope, despair, resilience and vulnerability are crossed, and people are forced to learn how to navigate through the darkness in search for the light. We must always keep believing that there is a rainbow hiding behind the clouds of the storm.

Ten thousand things (Release the doves)
With musicians from three cultures coming together, this song is both a sorrowful lament at the state of the earth, and an urgent call to peace and transcendence. ‘10,000 things’ refers to the Taoist idea that the world is full of shadowy distractions that separate us from our true spiritual nature. The song expresses the inherent conflict between the reality of the chaotic physical world and the profound desire for harmony and unity. This desire is expressed through the urgent injunction to ‘Release the Doves’ of peace.

CROSSWAY
Play
- Award Winner
- Album Track
Iternal conflicts are lived and felt deeply inside and are also projected outside. We think that those crosses are not created by anyone tangible, their appearance means that we have to live and go through them to be one step ahead and face the limits that we have. Structures hurt and annoy, but crossroads give you the opportunity to move and see a little more the beliefs we have about ourselves and our life. And that's what "Crossway" is talking about.
