Lyric

Old Villager

starclime

Woke with the sun on weathered skin

Cracks like maps of where I’ve been

Stone by stone and step by step

This mountain village holds what’s left

Chimes in the wind, a distant bell

Stories the moss and river tell

Children pass with neon shoes

But I still walk in faded blues

I’m an old villager

Still dancing slow through cherry air

Watching time from porch and prayer

Things may change, but I still care

Old villager, and I’m still there

Planted seeds with wrinkled hands

Watched them bloom across this land

Seasons turn, and people go

But some roots dig too deep to show

I’ve seen the mountain cry and smile

I’ve counted stars the longest while

You ask me why I never roam—

Because this soil has always known

I’m an old villager

Waving to the world from here

Sipping spring through memories dear

Age and peace, no need to fear

Old villager, year after year

Old villager… still near…

Artist Profile

  • starclime

    There are still landscapes in music that we have yet to see. starclime is a fourteen-member music project. Taking City Pop as one of its starting points,starclime moves freely through rock, jazz, soul, R&B,EDM, classical music, ambient, experimental music, hip-hop, and musical traditions from around the world. Rather than remaining within a single genre, the project absorbs the colour, rhythm, culture and atmosphere of different forms of music, reshaping them into something new. The changing seasons. Journeys towards unfamiliar places. Memories of somewhere to return to. The distance between people. Feelings that lie beyond words. These landscapes and emotions flow throughout the music of starclime. Some things can only be expressed through song. Others only begin to reveal themselves when words disappear. For starclime, vocal works and instrumentals therefore belong equally to the same musical world. Each member brings a different musical background and a different perspective to every work, while some continue to discover and develop their own musical identity. Rather than preserving a single finished form, starclime allows the music itself to grow through change. starclime does not seek simply to add more genres. Its aim is to renew the way music itself can be perceived through the meeting of different musical worlds. Towards music that has yet to be named. Towards landscapes we have yet to discover. starclime will continue to present new ways of seeing and hearing music.
