a sampling of Siphets' lyric and song compositions

many of the sound files for the titles here (when the file is posted) are first or second draft recordings composed while more enraptured with the emotional venting of writing songs than concerned with our lack of craftmanship in recording them. we write, fundamentally, for the release and validation the process provides our sensibilities. that others may find some empathy or appreciation for these craftings is comforting, though not our primary objective in composing them. We write for ourselves foremost, so that our engagement of others is founded in sincerity and awareness of the nature bestowed on us. we share these compositions here with the intent of discovering what affinity may exist for their sentimental expressions. merely getting these sentiments out of us in any form is professionalism enough for this forum, and we shall present their finished productions (should we ever realize them) through our Choir Ashtepheli, Respidie Fast, Opaque In The Tide, and Culture forums when time allows and motivation inspires. so, in acknowledgement of the Assimile mood and in appreciation of the catharsis that it remains, we're leaving the files unreworked and in their original state of production.
BE WARNED - the pourage list are these compositions in their raw or scratch (draft) state - the rough concept prior to being musically completed (and in most case, prior to being musical at all). as such, the recordings of many of these compositions may grate on the sensibilities of a refined or similarly cultivated ear. thou art advised to explore understandingly...or not at all.
