Calm Waves from Iter by Calgolla
Calm Waves offers a brief moment of introspection, in which the listener is invited to let impressions, emotions, physical sensations run through him. The track feels like a slow drift, a psychological battle between the comfort of the known and the terror of the unknown. It is a moment of relative stillness within the record, lulling the listener into a false sense of security, an ascent towards clarity, only to destabilise again.

Lyrics
calm waves
enliven
the right arm
scolding the dog
lookout on thoughts
looking for help
amidst the known
continuous alert
hypnotic effect
beacons on mechanisms
tension
contact
recherche
inconnue
chute
posture
thought convoy
breaks the contact
drifting on its tracks
forcing the lock
feeling unable
to quit the known
active in a liability
embracing emptiness and pain
on the way to the mountaintop
tension
contact
recherche
inconnue
chute
posture

Calgolla was born from an attempt to combine different contemporary sub-genres of rock music with the spoken word, influenced by the beat poetry of the 1960s and the poetry slams.
It is a project that works on the song form, winking and trying to integrate more open musical forms (free-jazz, neue music, math rock). To this end, the songs often feature long outros.
