Hi Hans

I sat down to listen to "One Day (we will know)," and honestly, I think I’ve just been transported into a sonic fever dream—but the good kind,

You’ve managed to take a collection of instruments that sound like they were pulled from the National Geographic catalog—a bouzouki here, a koto there, and a harp for good measure—and somehow coerced them into a waltz that doesn’t sound like a musical identity crisis, but rather a masterclass in atmospheric elegance.

The production is, as always, top-tier. Honestly, you’ve cultivated that distinct, hazy, atmospheric "Birchwood sound" so consistently that I’m starting to think that your new studio is tucked away in an enchanted forest. It fits the 3/4 time signature perfectly; there’s something about a waltz that acts as a perfect rhythmic cradle for a story about longing and the "what-ifs" of the past.

As for the lyrical subject matter, you’ve hit a nerve. I, too, have an "old flame" from yesteryear who occasionally wanders through my mind like a ghost in a waltz. She, however, had the impeccable good sense to dump me years ago. Telle est la vie, right?

Your vocal performance, paired with Tamar’s backing, was top-tier. It’s a beautiful, bittersweet, and ultimately hopeful track. You’ve managed to turn the universal pang of "what if" into a piece of art that feels like a warm blanket on a cold night. If "One Day" we really do get to know, I hope it’s while listening to this song on repeat.

Bravo, Hans! Another triumph.

regards

Izzy
