I am the Dust, I Care so Much



On Monday we had our video shoot for VIRUS the title track of our first forthcoming album. We were blessed with exquisite dancers, make up and hair artists, the best director of photography in London and a studio space that provided the perfect atmosphere to make our visions come true.

The Raven's team is growing with people from all over London and even the world who have talent and ambition, a nurturing soul and who love to be part of great projects.


It's made us become more aware, that what begins as a seed in your mind can grow, if you allow it to, into something greater than you would have ever expected with the right people involved. But to get there, two main ingredients are needed - imagination and common sense.


As artists one is always graduating from one project to the next, gracefully moving on upward. Before you know it, you'll look back and think - MAN I did ALL of THAT?!


Yup. Because you cared so much and did whatever it took to get there, with a little bit of thought and a hell lot of passion.


Yea - we are a small band and a smaller label. But it's not about the short cut on how to get to your goal, it's the journey, the length of its path, the obstacles you gotta find ways to overcome, the love you share along the way and the hunger that never ceases to stop.


Creation began with God (or so I'm told by religious fanatics, God's just a symbol in this blog, we ain't religious by traditional standards) and now WE are the creators and masters of our own universes. Real conquerors began small, convincing people one by one of their beliefs, until they had an army of believers behind them, who fought tooth and nail for their leader. Those who became leaders always started with one pure thought; that thing they believed in most and never gave up on until somehow others believed in them also. Real artists who begin small, last forever, because once you plant a seed, it can only ever grow on, forever.


Thank you for being part of our music, our videos, our photo shoots, our press and our supporters.


Without any of you, we would merely be two people making noise without an audience.


Peace!
