This is a song about astral projection.
Written, performed, produced & mixed by Gaynor Perry
For me, producing a piece of music is like creating a sculpture. I consider the overall sound in spatial terms with special attention to width, depth and tonal substance.
Assembling the lyrics is a puzzle to solve with each word carrying a certain weight, suspended along the timeline like an unusual piece of jewellery, if you will. Vocal harmonies form pendants or pendulums along the way augmenting the expression of the song.
I strive for each layer to be distinct with different sound elements weaving in and out of the mix. In this way I hope to create a textured and immersive listening experience.
I work intuitively in all my creative endeavours. These things are an aspect of me hewn from my personal experiences, and I sense in my body when a piece feels complete.
Urania is one of the nine Muses in Greek mythology, specifically the Muse of astronomy. She’s the daughter of Zeus and Mnemosyne, and is associated with universal love and the ability to foretell the future by the arrangement of constellations.
We can call upon Urania in our pursuit for celestial knowledge and exploration of the stars.✨
I’ve been a child all my life
It’s nothing I hide
It’s all in my light
Visions I’ve seen
They glow in the dark
Unfold in the night
If I could show you how I feel
My substance is surreal
A Russian doll is who I’ve been
All my years concealed within
I’m chasing the Milky Way
Shape-shifting every day
Come with me
Steal away, steal away
In the starlight tonight
Outside is the transient realm
Where time reigns supreme
And love is the lines on my face
What I reach for within
Is eternity
Where love is the language of space
Come with me
And find Urania
I’m chasing the Milky Way
Shape-shifting every day
Come with me
Steal away, steal away
In the starlight tonight
Come with me
Our love is here
All love is here for you
The process of creating each of my artworks—whether it be a painting, a piece of music, or a film—shapes who I am and how I present myself to the world.
I am transformed, energetically linked to my creations by invisible threads. Through these connections, my art becomes an integral part of my daily life, influencing how I relate to the people, animals, and nature around me.
Creative expression feels like a spiritual journey for me. Whether my work is widely known isn't what's important; it's the act of creating that truly matters.
Thanks for listening!
