๐ŸŒ™ How “Floating Until Six” Came to Life

Image
  This track began with a simple desire: to write a jazz waltz.
I've always been drawn to the gentle sway of 3/4 time — the way it moves like a conversation, not in straight lines but in circles.
I imagined something mellow and quietly adventurous, with soft drum rhythms gently tugging at the edges, guiding the listener into a twilight drift. But the soul of the track emerged on the day it was created.
That day’s Western astrology chart revealed a subtle tension in the air — the Moon had just shifted from Sagittarius to Capricorn, after an unusually long void-of-course phase. Uranus was also on the move, stirring the sky. Everything felt soft, suspended, and unanchored — like time had loosened its grip.
That moment of emotional weightlessness became the heart of the song. ✨ That’s how the title came to be:
“ Floating Until Six ” —
a sound for when the world feels quiet and undefined, just before night begins to shape things again. I hope it carries you gently through that space,

Vertex Whispers of First Light

Image
  Vertex Whispers of First Light is a jazz waltz born from an unusual constellation. This track was composed under the influence of a celestial mini-triangle formed by Aquarius, Aries, and Gemini — each contributing its own airy spark: innovation, motion, and intellect. With the Moon passing through Aquarius, a quiet kind of futuristic introspection lingered in the atmosphere. Infused with tabla rhythms, jazzy 3/4 grooves, and subtle hip hop textures, the piece opens with a moment of stillness — as if the stars are taking a breath — then unfolds like a whisper carried on early morning wind. The title reflects this mood: “ Vertex Whispers of First Light ” — a fleeting alignment, a breath between worlds, a geometry heard more than seen. ๐ŸŽง Best experienced in solitude, or with stars overhead.

It's something many of us quietly appreciate as a sound of the season, a kind of natural soundtrack to summer days. I’m excited to share three new jazz tracks with you, each capturing a different feeling of this time of year: ๐ŸŽ Natsushigure Serenade Inspired by natsushigure — a light, sudden summer rain that comes and goes quickly. Unlike heavy storms, it's more like a gentle emotional pause in the heat, often catching you off guard in the most poetic way. ๐ŸŒ• When the Moon Tastes of Honey ๐Ÿฅญ Under the Mango Moon These two are like musical twins — both written in a 3/4 groove and born from dreamy nights under a glowing summer moon.
