Welcome to Sai Ville.
This site, is my meeting ground,
my microphone to the planet,
to share with you,
a moment in time and space.

Greetings from the 'in never table'.
This is the RANT movement
for generation HXT.
The dreamers of the new ways of Inter Stellar communication,
Truth, Peace, Harmony and Understanding.

Sai - Awakendental poetic Rock-Percussive Electro Grunge.

Been Penning a tune,
On planet Neptune.
To sing on a wire,
On a rock called Gaia.

Allow me to introduce myself.
Here we are Hello, hello, hello - my name is Sai and I'm an Independant Musician, travelling the path of being an international, creative performing and recording Artist.

All my daze I've been a Singer/Songwriter. Guitarist - Acoustic & Electric- Bass and Percussionist + Visual Artist in the making music / writing lyrics and playing songs, seeking deeper - messages - harmonies and meaning.

Forever searching for new keys to puzzles, that unlock chambers to understanding. Human kind's labyrinth of experience.

I love to make the next happen, happen, to perpetually keep expanding concentrically. To be both living the change, and being the change. "the now's - later -- then --- now"

I interpret my world through Sound, Visual Arts, Writing and Invention. Always striving to stimulate the senses, spotlight the darkness, and confront reality like it was new again.

- These are the corner stones of my journey, thus far. Here I am from nowhere's nowhere.

REM Embers of Mindseye.
