The Gateway [Rock Version]

Copyright Taun. A. Richards 1984

The first complete song I wrote is called The Gateway. The song was written and recorded in 1984. On a Tascam 8 track studio recorder. I was 21 at the time.

I originally recorded this song as a rock anthem, but there is an orchestral arrangement in the collection if you prefer something softer. it's a beautiful ballad and I am very pleased with the way it came out.

 

Some of my music is cinematic and atmospheric. Some is reflective and philosophical. Others are deeply emotional, hypnotic, melancholic, or uplifting.

Recurring themes include: Love, memory, emergence, pressure transformation, fragmentation, coherence, awakening, heart-break and longing, and the hidden geometry beneath human experience.

Each song acts like a signal fragment connected to a larger symbolic landscape where butterflies, lions, storms, silver threads, oceans, dreams, thresholds, and hidden frequencies become part of the same evolving architecture.

 

This page is not simply a catalogue of songs. It is the beginning of an unfolding musical universe.
