NGUYEN CAO THIEN AN
🌟 My obsession for music does not merely sway upon the dancing notes on the strings of my violin; it pulses within my desire to create those beautiful melodies, weaving stories from the depths of my heart. Since childhood, I have immersed myself in a wide range of musical genres—from the solemnity of classical music, the elegance of VPOP and JPOP, to the intense allure of US-UK and the electrifying beats of Vocaloid. Each genre is like a unique note in the symphony of my life, and each rhythm has nurtured my love for music, making it ever deeper, ever richer.
💌 Then, at the beginning of 10th grade, I discovered rhythm games like “Project Sekai,” where each beat and melody seemed to resonate with my own heartbeat. From that moment, my love for music grew boundless, and a fierce determination arose within me: I wanted to transform those raw, unharmonised sounds into a complete work, filled with spirit and soul.
Bay
✨ “Bay”—the first song I composed—is more than just a piece of music; it embodies my aspirations and my dream-filled journey. “Bay” is a metaphor for soaring, for the desire to break through all limits to reach a boundless sky—a journey of growth that I envision as a young bird taking flight for the first time.
🌿 One day, that small bird will have to grow up, and face challenges on its own, getting out of the company of its parents. The song reflects not only my yearning to fly far and wide but also my profound gratitude and respect for my beloved parents, my rock, and my dearest friends.
Embrace
✨ Then, I suddenly realized that youth is fleeting. In the blink of an eye, all the memories—both joyful and sorrowful—faded, slipping away with the passage of time. At that moment, I asked myself: Have I truly given my all to life? Have I lived fully in pursuit of my dreams?
"I want to embrace the moment yet to come I want to embrace the joy that never fades And listening to the pounding, echoing heart We weave a tale that will forever unfold."
🌻 An overwhelming wave of emotion surged within me, becoming the catalyst behind Embrace. I yearn to live my life to the fullest, to make this youth truly meaningful, and to "Embrace my dream." With Embrace, I’ll capture this moment—this decision to live without regret.
