It's me, Ann, a DIY indie musician who is into guitar and piano. My strong interest in listening to classical, prog rock/metal, and eclectic musical choices fueled me to produce my musical style.
I collaborate with Mica China, who sung 4/9 of my music here. She is pursuing Conservatory of Music, major in piano and minor in voice.
This short cover is based on Opeth's Shepherd's Bush Empire concert version. At first, I only thought of making backing tracks for a casual jam. I ended up completing the whole thing!

My longer-term focus is called ARHYTHMETIC PROJECTS, which are series of singles with prog-rock elements. There will be sabbatical insertions of random cover projects in between.
2nd prog-rock attempt. It's mad this time! It is deferred a bit due to some decisions on arrangement. But I'm on it.

This single, with a 'sexier title,' * was inspired by Pink Floyd's "The Wall." It is a swift guitar jam in an upbeat 1:45-minute solo instrumental track.

This song is a quintessential, doomed nightmare, rolled into a duration of 5-minutes, guitar-driven, and heavier this time! It has Mica's short soprano adlib inspired by Phantom of the Opera.

When an artist is shredding one moment with the muse, the bell tolls with the eerie song, backed by clean finger-picked guitar riffs and swirling guitar effects. It is a rat race with the best friend of solitude -- TIME!

It's brownout when I fret this tune in one rainy, tough college day. The dreary instance coin the lyrics of being aboard peacefully on a sailing ship that suddenly drowned as it blazed into flames. As the embers submerge, the song resolves with depth.
Read the expounded philosophy behind this song.

Imagine a mysterious heroine on her way to meet someone significant in a never-known, deserted fortress. But the cosmic cycle could snap off any chances of letting it happen, like a transparent thought. It lingers for ages..."
