about

'As Yours Turns Into Mine' was written to accompany the novel 'Kolja' about a deaf mute boy by Dutch author Arthur Japin. It also feature on the award winning lesbian themed Brazilian web series 'RED'.

Kolja was eight years old and deaf-mute when the brothers Tchaikovsky took him into their care. For eighteen years they lived with him, taking him on their travels through Europe, teaching him how to lipread and speak and eventually even making it possible for him to experience music. When the composer died in 1893 he wrote his last letter to Kolja, now it forms the starting point of this novel. The song was inspired on a fragment in the book where deaf-mute Kolja explains how important the wordless experiences of physical contact are to him:

"Lippen die je kussen, hoef je niet te lezen. Misschien dat ik daarom nog íéts meer aan de liefde verslingerd ben dan iedereen: lijven hebben zonder woorden lief. Mij is passie zo onweerstaanbaar omdat het anderen mijn wereld binnenvoert. Zinnen zijn daar zuchten. Ieder maakt er zijn wezen kreunend kenbaar, klanken onbeheerst, onbeheersbaar, zoals ik die uitstoot van nature."

lyrics

I breathe in
Your skin
From the hollow
Where your neck begins
I leave my
Lips to
Linger on
Your collarbone
Raise my hands above your spine
Trace my fingers down
Along the edge of where we start
And weld us into one

For I am made of
flesh that folds
Around your bones
I am made of skin that glows
and glistens as it listens

To the flow of
your blood
Between the beats of
your heart
Chase their ways through all your limbs
And lead them into mine
Along the bends, the twists the curves
As yours turns into mine

For I am made of
flesh that folds
Around your bones
I am made of
skin that glows
and glistens
As it listens

VanWyck recommends:

How Sad, How Lovely
by Connie Converse

So many voices get lost in history. These songs almost disappeared, like the woman who wrote them. They are haunting, enigmatic and filled with dark humor. I love 'Roving Woman', my personal anthem. VanWyck

After The Fire After The Rain
by The Lost Brothers

Love the depth and warmth of their voices, lyrics, harmonies and production. Wanna keep this album and wrap it around me. VanWyck

Fire Place
by Dusty Stray

A unique combination of mellow folktronica, heartache and a wry sense of humour. Best listened to very late at night, staring into a fire. VanWyck
