A close friend of mine died suddenly two days ago and I've felt kind of empty recently. This piece helped me be able to reflect a bit more. Absolutely beautiful.

Usage rights - please read:
I’m posting the usage rights and important information about my music right here in a comment on every new video so that they’re easily accessible to everyone. =)

USAGE:
If your project (any project at all, movie, photography, websites, live shows etc.) is non-commercial, which means it doesn't earn you any money, then you can use my music for free. Only given credits are necessary, that's the only condition. Credits would be totally fine as a small text in the movie, website etc. written "Music by Adrian von Ziegler". In live shows and other projects where including a text would be difficult, an oral mention would suffice as well. =)
On YouTube and twitch you can also use my music for free even if you monetize your videos by the way!
ANY school projects have automatic free permission to use my music, no license payment is required.


If the project is commercial, meaning it makes money in any way (except YouTube and twitch, see above), you would have to buy a license for the music you want to use. The license payment would be small in almost all cases except for big budget productions. It would be a one-time payment, so you can use the music you bought forever in that project. It does not give you any rights over the music however, so remixing the music, re-selling it etc. is not allowed.
Giving credits is also necessary in commercial projects.

Please note that "for free" only applies to the usage license. Music is my full-time job and is where 100% of my earnings come from. So no matter what you use my music for, whether it's commercial or non-commercial use, I appreciate that you purchase the music instead of downloading it for free. Many people misunderstand this part so I need to clear this up. I love making music, but if everyone would just get it for free I would not be able to pay rent, so please understand. It was always my dream to make enough money to survive with music being my only job, and that is only possible because of people who go and buy that music.

Remixing, sampling and other forms of altering the original song into a new piece of music is also generally not allowed unless the remix is 100% non-commercial and labelled with the original title and author of the song (me). Adding bird noises, nature sounds or similar things are allowed. Nightcore alterations are also allowed while non-commercial and labelled with original title and author (Google "Nightcore" in case of confusion).



REQUESTED MUSIC:
I am currently and for the foreseeable future not available for requests or collaborations, I'm sorry.

Important:
I do not allow my music to be used in any project that has a clear political, racist or discriminatory message or is pornographic. By that I mean anything that goes from direct political, racist or discriminatory videos or underlining speeches with my music, onto remixing my melodies into a song that has lyrics with clear political, racist or discriminatory message and similar things that clearly promote these things. Same goes for explicit pornography. Media with nude art is allowed, if not pornographic in nature and purpose.


I hope you're having an awesome day, and thanks a lot for being interested in my music! =)

[Ixilêria]

Please, take care of yourself. It's okay, to not be active, we don't mind waiting for you. We just want nothing more, nothing less, except that you get better.
Warm hugs, and a lot of beautiful wishes for you❤

I'm going through a difficult time right now. . . Everything i slaved for in the last 15 years was in vane. This music helps me be able to reflect without be overwhelmed emotionally. Adrian your music is a blessing for me. I will pick up the pieces and figure out where to go from here. Thank you sir.
To all those who are in a tough situation right now i say this:
One day at a time. Focas on today, pain demands to be felt. Process and heal. Peace be with you. 🕉🙏🏼🕉

[TheElegantGoth]

Ich bin wahrlich begeistert, dass du zurück bist Adrian. Deine Community steht auch in schweren Zeiten hinter dir. Lass mich im Namen deiner Zuschauerschaft sagen, dass wir froh sind, neuen Meisterwerken lauschen zu dürfen. Dankeschön.

[amskazetoame]

When words won’t come, music speaks. Thank you for all your amazing pieces over the years. Thank you for being real and open with us. You are a light to so many in the dark.

[InnaIsHere]

Damn, from my ears it goes right into my heart. It feels the pain, the happiness melting together to leave nothing else but just darkness, emptiness. Hopes are gone, memories are vanished. You want to cry but you can't. Cuz now you are nothingness. People gather around you, watching your lifeless body, while some other cry, some other are confused of what could have happened that such a beautiful person is gone. Forever!

[thetruthhurts]

Lost and alone, angry and afraid, I've been the past few weeks. My Faith have been tested and alone I await. I'm in the precipice of MY DARKEST HOUR, and here comes you with all the hurt your heart is experiencing, convincing me that brighter days are ahead.

[countessdelancret]

My partner is a musician, he suffered a breakdown last year and he hasn’t been able to write new music since. It hurts to watch him struggle, I myself have been through severe depression before. Your not alone Adrian we will be here loving your beautiful creations always. Thank you for many many years of amazing music ❤

[avatarlilacwolf]

As I listened to this song, I visualized this story in my mind:
A lone wolf dwelled in a desolate land that was once hers. The wolf mourned the loss of her pack as she slumped over an empty stream. Dark grey clouds rapidly formed in the sky, and showered rain on the wolf and the stream. Thunder clashed in unison with the wolf's aching thoughts. With all of her power, the wolf howled to the sky, expressing her grief. The wolf's head hung low, and then she noticed the stream was filling up with fresh water. The storm blew over, and the clouds slowly lightened. The wolf looked up to the sky as a bright light seeped through the clouds.

I burst with tears when I listened to the climax. I could almost feel a power surge through me. As the music quieted down, I felt the release of my old feelings. Your music is very healing and possesses such powerful feelings. ❤💙💜

It's always a comfort to know that you're not alone in this world with depression, dark thoughts, etc. Ultimately, the bright tunnel can usually be seen at the end and better times in life will come again. We all have your back Adrian and really appreciate your music sharing with us! Your feelings too. Thank you for this moment, it just touches the soul and the heart so much 💔❤🥲

[Brooder]

Been a follower for years. And i have never been disappointed in any music you have ever shared. Thank you dear Ziegler.

[scottmealey]

As someone who has battled depression in the past, I relate to you, Adrian. My wife has gone through it as well, and it was exacerbated a few years ago after her mother passed. Your music has always made me felt that no matter how bleak things look, I'm not alone, others know and share my struggles and through this, I'm uplifted and feel more alive. Your music is a gift to all of us, and we can never thank you enough for that. Cheers from Canada, man!

[Allesandra]

My Dear Adrian and family...whatever you are going through, please remember this TOO shall PASS. Depression is hard we get it ...but you are not alone at all as we all love you..we love you a lot strong and keep composing love you. Regards from India.

[AlekKaczan]

I'm just hoping for you to feel better soon Adrian, stay strong! ❤

[creationcreatormike]

We love and appreciate you so much Adrian. We all get depressed at times. Thank you for channeling your feelings into your amazing musics. I think beauty doesn't always need to be butterflies and rainbows, dark feelings can be beautiful when we open to their wisdom and don't push them away.

[reedbender]
