    "I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten..." (Joel 2:25)

    may·fâir·grin©- impressionistic music existing outside of the verse-chorus-verse structures of a three-minute pop song that expand and blur the boundries between folk, ambient and electronica.

    »» a new mayfairgrin interview is up at the Enclave website



    a continuous, beautiful and melancholy 40+ minute opus journey into dark & experimental Sombient Atmospherics with 
acoustic & electronic elements

    limited download:
    all four continuous parts of the Pelicagnosis ambient opus (now under the bell jar project), or purchase the CD, complete with original poetry from Llona, at flaming fish music.
    *DSL/cable highly recommended


    commentary:
    "It's hard and unfair to place a singular label on mayfairgrin. It's a bit of ambience, electronica, folk, and goth all mixed in unequal portions. The results are both moving and highly intriguing."
    -The Enclave

    "(the) music is hauntingly beautiful. I'd like to be sitting on a hillside in the fall at twilight. sitting in some dead grass by big tree with an old abandoned house in the background, maybe reading Job or Lamentations or Jeremiah. or just laying back with the headphones on, feeling the cold wind blow and taking it all in."
    - chris cummings (of theCELLexperiment)

    "Since forming in 1998, mayfairgrin has covered quite a bit of sonic territory. Utilizing and often combining the sounds of EBM, goth rock, and various native musics, [the] sound is quite dynamic"
    - experimental noise artist, jason coffman (of Anaphylalxis/Anaphylactic shock recordings)

    [   d e u t s c h e   |   f r a n ç a i s   |   e s p a ń o l   ]

    feeling this sort of melancholy
it's beautiful outside
and i don't feel like doing anything...
just to sit here and talk to some intimate stranger...
and i am stuck in between two homes
no real sense of security
but i don't care
i could care less even less
don't care no i don't
and the bed is still warm
is it mine or yours...
it smells like you
and taste like your tears
or maybe they are mine
it's hard to tell...
the difference...
feeling this sort of melancholy
it's beautiful outside..
and i don't feel like doing anything...

    The Darker Day Collective now has it's own open discussion forum available at Flaming Fish Music
