Frozen in Time
Frozen in Time describes the impasse situation in which many people find themselves into. Inability to move forward even though Time moves on surely. Lack of motivation, society models imposition, past memories hold us back and this is something we need to get over with.
"One night I played two chords at the piano and waited for the first verse image to light up. After writing the lyrics I started thinking about the instruments to use that had to be metallic, cold, with a long breath to represent the impasse, the past, the memories in our mind. On the contrary the repeated tribal rhythm played underneath is representing the constant passing of Time."
Percussion instruments such as Vibraphone, Hang Drum and Darabuka replace the piano, guitar and drums we are used to hear everyday and at the same time these new instruments give more meaning to the core message of the song.
