"Lammā badā yatathannā" is an original composition that reflects on what endures beyond time, holding melody inward as a form of prayer.

Deep, sinking guitars saturate the space with gravity and resonance, while a fiercely distorted Hammond organ forms a magnetic field of devotion. Ethnic chants and polyphonic voices emerge like distant echoes, suspended beyond a single moment or place.

This work was inspired by the presence and spiritual atmosphere of the Arabic classical song "Lammā badā yatathannā" not as a reproduction or arrangement of its melody, but as a reinterpretation of its resonance through sustained sound and density.

The lyrics are sung first in the original Arabic, followed by an English rendering shaped by meaning rather than direct translation, allowing sound and sense to unfold together over time.

Artist Profile

  • SATOSHI

    SATOSHI is a Japanese composer and producer whose work brings together classical harmony, sacred and liturgical traditions, folk music from around the world, and Japanese melodic sensibilities. Moving across spiritual post-rock, blackgaze, dark ambient, trip-hop, and abstract hip-hop, his music combines layered vocals, massive drones, tremolo-driven guitars, breakbeats, and moments of profound silence. Through these contrasting elements, he explores themes of prayer, loss, hope, and the boundary between civilization and nature. A central part of his work is the contemporary reimagining of traditional hymns and folk melodies - not only to transform them through his own artistic vision, but also to introduce the beauty of the original music to new audiences. His YouTube channel has surpassed 76,000 subscribers, and he actively collaborates with vocalists and artists from around the world. His music has also been featured at an official football event held in a national stadium overseas. ECLESIAH is the conceptual project through which SATOSHI expresses"Sacredgaze": a personal musical world where prayer, darkness, silence, and overwhelming sound converge.
