Raven’s Jig – Soggy Cake (Macarthur Park)
Richard Harris’s MacArthur Park is a song about heartbreak. And parting. And striped pants and soggy cake. We couldn’t help but chuckle when we heard it the first few times. We felt so bad that we decided to take our good old piano out and make the most dramatic, heartfelt rendition we could. This is …

This was played with very peaceful thoughts in mind, blue skies and soft grassy …

Raven’s Jig – Unicorns (Solitude by the Window)

Raven’s Jig – Cantina Band
This song, released in-between the 2014 and 2015 Star Wars movies, was played by Onne, in his own words, for his personal fun. Actually Agathe has had to write comedic lyrics to it since forever (get to it, Agathe). In the meantime, we hope you can enjoy our fun-packed, drum-and-brass-rich rendition of this timeless classic …

Case in point: Erik Satie, who tackled such a large varieties of atmosphere and musical colors in his uniquely creative music. Here with Gnossienne no.1, we …
