The title of the piece is from Wilfred Owen’s Poem and the following lines: What candles may be held to speed them all? Not in the hands of boys, but in their eyes Shall shine the holy glimmers of goodbyes. The pallor of girls' brows shall be their pall; Their flowers the tenderness of patient minds, And each slow dusk a drawing-down of blinds.
Rob Dougan Official the composition, the poem, both are the perfect marriage! Your new music is so heartfelt and raw, and always leaves me peppered in goosebumps! So much love for your work Rob, so much love.
Good to have you back in the game, man. Been a hell of a long time but as they say on the Grolsch adverts; "You kan't rush deez tings". Physical release (CD/BluRay) would be lovely. Any plans?
Your CD Furious Angels is one of my most prized possessions in my collection, it was one of only two copies I ever found in a store in my country Hungary. This was in around 2002, we still barely had access to rarities like this. It had been the soundtrack of my adolescence and I go back to it regularly to this day, nothing quite like your expressive and poetic lyrics and music, nor will there ever be. Thank you for returning!
I like his works a lot…but : His songs are lacking subtility and nuances. All notes of his melodies are always played at the same level. I guess that’s the way of composing for electronic musicians. I think he can still improve on this matter
My gosh, Mr. Dougan. You are such a unique composer. Thank you for your continued creations. Every piece from your earliest to now convey so much feeling in every instrument and strut. The fact you show these amazing players and give credit to their talented craft is very humble and respectable. It really shows that a harmony among men creates a beautiful peace (piece). I will always preach your amazing work to others and everyone else should do the same.
Rob, i'm fan of your old sound, like "Clubbed to death" («Kurayamino variation»). In 2002, i started to write music inspired by this track. I miss your old beats, but ... This is the best reincarnation of classical music that I heard. The only thing I regret that I can not hear it live. Sorry for my English, I'm from Russia) Thank you, that you don't stop move.
I just came across one of your songs and I was, wait a second, this is the same guy of Furious Angels, this is the Matrix guy! I am sitting here for the second hour hoping you would have more music. Not only that your music is such elegant and beautiful, but it shows how deeply sensitive you are. I love this one in particular since it felt like a fresh breeze of happiness, hope, pain and love caressing my soul. I am dancing Tango movements to it! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Je ne me lasse pas de l'écouter. Si j'étais une symphonie ce serait elle. Je me vois dans chaque mouvement, un flot d'émotions, un tourbillon de sentiments, une partition où dansent les notes de la vie, mon âme en musique ❤
Вызывая из потайных глубин самые яркие чувства в душе,Взмахом палочки дирижер составляет блестящий сюжет,И оркестр творит повинуясь незримому такту и ритму,Произведение звучащее в самом сердце, рисуя картину.Медленно и плавно, душа летит в незнакомые дали,Забыв про суровость Мира, про горькие боль и печали.Под симфонию хочется, что-нибудь, спеть, пусть невпопад,Лишь бы не сбивать музыку с ритма, не испортить настроенный лад.Музыка льется гармонично переливаясь яркими красками,И вот сознание вдруг окутано волшебными сказками,И провалившись в кроличью нору, летишь совсем не напуган,Видишь творца музыки сей, дирижер, композитор Robert Dougan.С уважением, Eugene I. Loner!
It never ceases to amaze me, every time I listen, how the last bits of the melody sound so nocturnal, and like a calm acceptance after loudly defying the "good night". Such a powerful yet reflective piece.
Powerful. Very fitting to what has happened to me these past few weeks. Its like pulling myself from this horrible nightmare I was going through and saying that's enough! Thanks Rob!
Was listening to the 22nd Sunday album again tonight, and decided to look up the title for this piece. The poem is quite apropos right now. God be with this world.
I first heard Clubbed to Death on an old VHS tape of Rodney Mullen skateboarding way back around 2000. I've listened to your music for 20 years now and Furious Angels is one of my most favorite and most prized (I own a copy) albums of all time. Considering that I have 30,000 songs in my iTunes library alone (not counting the hundreds of thousands of songs I've downloaded and ripped) I believe that's saying something. This new piece you've composed is absolutely and very deeply moving. I felt goosebumps. Just like the first time I heard Clubbed to Death. I hope you continue to make music as your sound has always been a sound that deeply touches my soul to its core. I hear your music and I feel like I need to strive to be a better human.
I could listen to this on repeat all day. Rob Dougan, I've heard many composers in my life. But by far you are at the top of the list. Your music has helped me in so many areas of my life. Thank you for being passionate and creating powerful music. Hope I get to meet you one day.
Very few artists are able to move me and touch my soul and my life in that emotional way your music does, every note, every word, every sound, I feel them in my skin and in my heart, no words can describes the experience of feel and live your music. You're a real genius, thanks for the beautiful pieces of art you give to the world. Grettings from Chile.
Thank you, Rob! You are the genius of our days, your music was waited for such a long time and your return surely deserves world-wide success. Wish I could hear your music played alive in my local philharmony one day.
back in the days when CD was still a thing to buy, I'm very glad that I have your Furious angels CD in my collection; often listening to your music while on the train, I enjoy the 'instrumental' version very much, and the lyrics are so well written in all of your songs...they make me ponder. After many years, coming back to your music feels like being reborn. I look forwards to many more beautiful pieces composed by you. Warm regards from Canada.
Still can’t believe that a creator of a Matrix masterpiece is living just right now just at the same time with us! Coz U feel like Amadeus, Mozart… idk, Beethoven! It’s gonna sound a bit weird but just a realization of it makes me so happy! Coz we are still ok, people, a future of this planet, music, music industry are still ok. Til we have amazing people like u… 🌹ෆ
Hey Rob, Just wanted to say that I've been a fan of you since your classics (speed me towards death, im not driving anymore,). Even after all this time, your music just brings me into another state of mind. Makes me wonder about life and the enigmatic mysteries in this so called earth. Your music will forever be in my heart. God bless you Rob, for all the musical treasures you have created for us to enjoy. - JNA
Thank for you for being a light in these culture blind times, reminding the true essence of music that heals the spirit and reminds of the great art that our minds can create as selfless gods. God Speed, Rob Dougan!
I cried my eyes out while hearing this song.. just suddenly. This amazing orchestra and strings....it's such a bombastic music. Just epic! And all the effort and costs! I am stunned! All we people should get these pieces of art in better quality from you -if we can. Waiting for the next paycheck. We can't let art die!
I just can't stop listening to this track...and The Return too... and Vale... And Frescobaldi Toccata... I've just bought the EPs The 22nd Sunday and Misc. Sessions. Thanks for your music Rob, truly ! J'adore !!!
How is it possible to do this kind of thing? Rob you really are one of a kind! I wish you could make lots of these, its pure bliss, so many feels... you should be feeling the worlds
This song reminds me of 9/11 so much. Maybe its because it popped up while I was watching and rereading the old accounts and timelines from 9/11. To me this song has anger, sadness, mystery, and hope all in one package
you are amazing...unique artist...I love your ART Rob...you help me very much, theres Magic and Hope in your music. keep moving, dont stop. we need more of you!! greetings from Argentina!! Mariano.
Sooooo glad I could find your new masterpiece Rob....Furious Angels is one of the reasons I still breathe...It just kept me going on in a very tough time of my life....And now this...This is superb man, every time I listen to this Im nearly in tears!!!!Thank you for such talent!!!!
This song makes me so happy to be alive. It is absolutely beautiful. Now everything I do in my regular life is done with triumph, with this song in my head.
Thanks Morbid Vision. Noticed you had Ludovico Einaudi (who I first heard of a few weeks ago) performing a song called "Petricor" (which I only discovered a few years ago means the smell of stone/rocks after rain I believe).
I can' t belive it. Rob Dougan have an official channel. I've been waiting so long for hear your music again! The song is outstanding!!! Greetings from Spain!!!

Good to have you back in the game, man. Been a hell of a long time but as they say on the Grolsch adverts; "You kan't rush deez tings".
Physical release (CD/BluRay) would be lovely. Any plans?
If you are fortunate enough to live past a certain age, these words become more meaningful.
That's a Masterpiece!!!! 👏👏👏 So emotional!!
Please, keep on creating. This music is like a breath of fresh air nowadays. Best regards from Ukraine.
Regards from a Ukrainian in Canada.
We share the love of the same music.
@@MultiPhillygirl we all do! from every country!
Is there any reason to listen to anyone else but the fabulous Rob Dougan?

Bálint Bak - So many great tracks (I hope - we'll see) to come
Thanks Bálint Bak. Very pleased you tracked down a copy.
So many thanks for getting back to me! I will keep purchasing your records for those great tracks :)
Unreal. Truly one of the greatest musicians of our time.
Without music life would be a mistake!
I totally comprehend that now.... Thank you Mr. Dougan.
In my opinion he is one of the most underrated musicians.
I like his works a lot…but : His songs are lacking subtility and nuances. All notes of his melodies are always played at the same level. I guess that’s the way of composing for electronic musicians. I think he can still improve on this matter
A pandemic and 2 deaths....yes one needs music like this to tame the savagery of unfathomable grief.
I need your new music on Spotify!!
Me too! :)
Agreed!!
Same
Same
i'm from Russia ,and i like your music. Never stop writting, because it,s wonderful
I try not to Александр Копинов. And thank you for the encouragement.
Александр Копинов Удивительно много русских
Ваашпе
Поддерживаю! 👍

I can feel your music.
You are so underrated.
Furious Angels is a masterpiece! Please keep composing!
Probably the most inspiring music ever...Greetings from Colombia Rob Dougan, !!!
Love you Rob Dougan. Your music heals my soul
So sweetly melancholic, so pessimistically hopeful, so carefully nuanced and measuredly bold. In a word - masterful.
Rob, i'm fan of your old sound, like "Clubbed to death" («Kurayamino variation»). In 2002, i started to write music inspired by this track. I miss your old beats, but ... This is the best reincarnation of classical music that I heard. The only thing I regret that I can not hear it live. Sorry for my English, I'm from Russia)
Thank you, that you don't stop move.
Very true, and your English is fine :)
Как же это прекрасно, этот человек просто гений
Gives me chills. Like going home.
Thanks, bluelblock.
Absolutely wonderful!!! I feel like writing again. 😊
Delighted, Luis Chavez. More than welcome.
Rob Dougan ought to be fated as one of the most original composers of this early century.
a true musical genius
Everyone is feeling the power everyone s doing their best because its rob dougans music
The mental imagery your music inspires is just sublime. Thanks, Rob.
this composition makes me feel alive
I love your music, touch my soul. Rob please never stop.
You are one of my favorite artists of all time. Your music makes me feel as though God is not too far from us.
Every time I listen to you I listen differently because it's a living music or maybe I am changing
After A Long Night, I find myself coming back to here this track, haunting, delicate but powerful.
The most beautiful music that I have ever heard. Why am I crying so much..
I just came across one of your songs and I was, wait a second, this is the same guy of Furious Angels, this is the Matrix guy! I am sitting here for the second hour hoping you would have more music. Not only that your music is such elegant and beautiful, but it shows how deeply sensitive you are. I love this one in particular since it felt like a fresh breeze of happiness, hope, pain and love caressing my soul. I am dancing Tango movements to it! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
This is the type of music we all need is this crazy time, we are in! Please make more music! God Protect YOU Rob! God Speed!
This is the music of a Sunrise to Sunset.
Je ne me lasse pas de l'écouter. Si j'étais une symphonie ce serait elle. Je me vois dans chaque mouvement, un flot d'émotions, un tourbillon de sentiments, une partition où dansent les notes de la vie, mon âme en musique ❤
Wow...this got me in the feels.

Hey thanks man... Your music has always help me. Now more than ever. I really want you to know that I appreciate your work.
Это Божественно!!!)♥️
Welcome back Rob! We missed you.
Genius move to have this composition as an orchestral piece! Been listening to this since it was posted to YT!
Was listening to the 22nd Sunday album again tonight, and decided to look up the title for this piece. The poem is quite apropos right now. God be with this world.
Вы великий мастер! Вы рвёте мне душу! Я очень рада вашей новой музыке!!!
Temazo...siempre me llega al alma...
Rob, you're the best! Jeez, I am always so impressed with your works.
Thanks for the kind comment Jacob, and have a great evening, R.
Much appreciated!
Hi Rob! I see you're working on music again, or were you always - just not in plain sight? Anyway, really inspiring pieces, thank you.
I first heard Clubbed to Death on an old VHS tape of Rodney Mullen skateboarding way back around 2000. I've listened to your music for 20 years now and Furious Angels is one of my most favorite and most prized (I own a copy) albums of all time.

Unless things mortal move them not at all, this piece makes milch the burning eyes of heaven,
And strikes passion in the heart of gods.
Every time I listen to this beautiful song,
I think about all the loss and pain in the world.
It can be dangerous to leave so much power and epicness in the hands of one man ;)
True AntiNoobDefence. But not if he's forgetful and can't even find the house keys at times. Pretty safe really...Thanks ;)
Very few artists are able to move me and touch my soul and my life in that emotional way your music does, every note, every word, every sound, I feel them in my skin and in my heart, no words can describes the experience of feel and live your music. You're a real genius, thanks for the beautiful pieces of art you give to the world.

Rob you are a legend and my favorite artist!
I have turned on so many people to your masterful work Rob Doughan ..... Its like vitamin C for me...... keep creating .... the world needs beauty!
One of the best composition from Rob Dougan, this need to be used in movie for protagonist character for rise in dramatic struggle.
Thank you, Rob! You are the genius of our days, your music was waited for such a long time and your return surely deserves world-wide success. Wish I could hear your music played alive in my local philharmony one day.
one of the true living legend. rob Dougan
Love it, melancholy is a beautiful thing.
