It's my birthday today, and I wanted to release something extremely authentic, expressing what I'm *really* about. Yup, this sounds like Final Fantasy music. Yup, this sounds like the spiritual successor to the Valkyrie Trilogy. Yes, that's a live violin. And it's for all those reasons that when this track was first being passed around, no one wanted it. Well, fuck that. Give the music to the people. This release is completely DIY, and I would love your support in passing it around. :) I know you guys will love this. I'm proud to bring this to you. Enjoy. So much love, V

[@maurice4]

Happy birthday :D

[@Tiger_katsune]

IT'S BEAUTIFUL! Also. Happy birthday my dude. Do you have this uploaded on facebook too? I'd share this video as is but the facebook algorithm tends to hide youtube video links; just wanna get you as much outreach as possible 👌

[@PhantasmXYZ]

Happy Birthday! Wishing you all the best in life. The world is a better place with you and your works in it. ♥️

[@svh_0039]

I love it dude, its a wonderful song Happy Birthday V

[@CodaTheConduit]

Happy birthday!

[@PhantasmXYZ]

This is the kind of music I want in the background of my dreams, beautiful.

[@groovytau]

This is such a massively underrated song.

[@danii1.]

Lyrics: I’m your reflection Dancing with the wind and rain until I drown Rethinking questions That you have scattered around It’s about the feeling Found within the meaning Of the sunlight gleaming It’s gonna be okay Hush the Storms Away I’m mesmerized with your warmth Like honey, white yellow gold It hypnotized the rage and war Sweet nothings, shush away the storms I’m your reflection Fractals made of silver-blue shining like new The glowing calm of dawn Gives me strength to carry on It’s about the feeling Found within the meaning Of the sunlight gleaming It’s gonna be okay Hush the Storms Away

[@k4z00]

How is that possible for this song to be that underrated??? This sounds like out of a Love and Deep space soundtrack! This is so amazing!!

[@jijobird4359]

I find it so hard to believe nobody wanted this. It's gorgeous. Happy birthday, V! I thought we were supposed to give YOU presents today but thank you for this gift nonetheless.

[@Y0nex]

Gift indeed!

[@djlighttracks7344]

This is one of the best songs you've ever created. Really unbelievable how you have developed over the years a truly unique stalk that always surprises. That's what I call true art 👍🏻 Thanks for the Song Happy Birthday

[@varienofficial]

Thank you so much. Really kind words there...

[@HexaIt]

OMG OMG OMG !!! My favorite side of Varien's Music is back! It's been a while. Everything you do just skyrocket's you even further away of any other artists in my rankings, you have literally no serious contender. You truly are my favorite musician and even artist i might say. Seriously thank you for all your work you deserve all the love ! Also a very Happy Birthday ;)

[@varienofficial]

Thank you so much for all of what you said. It means a lot to me.

[@Flechexmusic]

Metal music + Violin + Made with FL Studio = Varien Perfect combination!

[@D3V1LBr34TH]

To this day, it's a crime that this has relatively low views. This song makes me tear up everytime i listen to it. The lyrics and violin really is something else :3 Tyvm for this Varien

[@MisttKitty]

I miss this type of songs. Varien it's definitely UNIQUE

[@LindaPls]

Violin and piano goes so well in metal, its crazy. Good shiz yeet

[@insomnialex7]

Recently found Varien. Now on repeat!!!

[@PuccioMusic]

This is the music dreams are made of! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for keeping to turn them into sound!

[@Just_RJ]

I'd expect this to have been in a JRPG of some kind. My favourite kind of music. As always, an amazing piece that breaks the mainstream. Happy birthday, and keep doing what you do, man.

[@varienofficial]

JRPG soundtracks are my #1 influence! Final Fantasy, Shin Megami Tensei (and Persona), Atelier series, Star Ocean, etc. Good call.

[@artaum5635]

This is really one of the most beautiful tracks I've heard in my life, absolute masterpiece.

[@artaum5635]

This is incredible

[@Mirgrowth]

Oh boy, this is the best hybrid ive ever heard. Please, keep doing music like that. Its just freaking TOP. I wish there were more tracks like this one. This type of sound is so inspiring. And Happy B'day! Your level is beyound imaginations

[@danilosouza2582]

Vocal, arranjo, imagem, melodia estão numa sintonia perfeita!

[@wispx]

Love this song so much! It has such a beautiful and epic feeling. Who cares if the labels didn't want it, it's a beautiful piece of art! Keep it up!

[@CodaTheConduit]

I love it, been a fan of yours for a while keep up the great work

[@MsEvelynRivera]

happy birthday!! 💕 it's been an honor to follow along and see all the incredible things you've done over the years. you continue to inspire me and so many others every day!! much love 💕

[@Onaterdem]

Hey Evelynn, were you the inspiration for this cover art? :P (Jokes, totally +1 to your comment)

[@varienofficial]

Thank you Evelyn! YOU inspire ME! Keep up your beautiful art.

[@erikcobbett8300]

An epic soundscape that deftly combines 3 or 4 different genres into a unique symphony of awesomeness. Like only Varien can do. Way to blow our minds once again.

[@Patralgan]

I love this song very much. I just wish it was a lot longer.

[@Trevixivert]

This goes directly to my heart. The violin, the melody, the drums and bass... Why the hell I can't find anything remotly similar to this anywhere?

[@elcheffe86]

super-highly underrated song, this is just georgeous powerful

[@kurumitokisaki866]

Varien's music is so nice to listen to! I like this song, too!

Happy bday varien! Never stop dreaming and keep on going, I like your music ever since i found varien's trilogy you inspired me and gave me hope to keep on going with music production :D, Cuz music is lifeee I hope you never leave your melodic styles :D

[@lordbarron3352]

I don't think of this as a Jrpg song more than I do a feeling of battling the storm, like waves breaching against the rocky shore with the sunlight streaming rays on the gray foam. Just feelings of liberation.

[@enigmere]

this song is soooooo good, it completely blew me away. nobody wanted it? unbelievable. yes it reminds me of FF and that is a great thing! love you for this upload!

[@averwill324]

Great work, keep it up!
