under the rising sun
"under the rising sun" represents youth, journeys, and the search for oneself.
This track captures the intense and transformative period of growing up - a time when one actively explores the world, faces new challenges, and experiences their first deep realizations. It’s a stage of self-discovery, first major decisions, and first real disappointments.
The title "under the rising sun" carries a double meaning:
This period of life is filled with journeys - both physical and internal. It’s the first taste of true freedom, but with it comes the realization that the world is far more complex than it seemed in childhood.

Musical Atmosphere
The sound palette of the track reflects the spirit of adventure, discovery, and Eastern aesthetics. It incorporates traditional Japanese instruments:
Koto - a classic string instrument that adds a melodic, almost meditative texture.
Shakuhachi - a Japanese flute known for its deep, expressive sound, evoking solitude, introspection, and inner searching.
The music conveys a sense of movement, changing landscapes, and evolving emotions. It holds both the lightness of youth and the shadow of the first significant realizations - when one begins to understand that growing up is not just about new opportunities but also about first losses.

How This Track Fits into the Album
If "while the time sleeps" symbolized childhood, when time does not yet exist, "under the rising sun" represents youth - awakening, realization, and exploration. It’s the moment when a person begins to search for their place in the world, when dreams still seem achievable, but reality gradually reveals its complexities.
This track symbolizes the sunrise of life - the first steps toward understanding oneself. It is filled with the beauty of discovery but also a touch of melancholy, as with growing up comes the awareness that time is not infinite.
