This eclectic duo has teamed up to create a cinematic instrumental to take you on an imaginative musical journey. Don’s conch shells provide the haunting and stirring melodies while NikMartkin’s powerful drums, handpans and guitar lay down the driving rhythmic foundation.

A really big thank you to NikMartken. This was an amazing collaboration and musical journey. I first discovered his music on social media and Spotify and was instantly struck by his originality and authenticity. I was drawn to the vibe and felt an immediate connection to his music. The connection was so strong, I knew at that moment a collaboration was just a matter of time. NikMartken's quote below expresses perfectly how I feel about music and how I was feeling as we worked together on this very special project. 

"A Heart, so strong and full of life that does not want to be trapped in a cage, but it wants to be free, explore the world, have experiences, find love and share love… It is pumping so hard that it is escaping from its shell, or better our thoughts that most of the time are holding us and our hearts back, preventing us from exploring, experiencing new feelings and having a taste of what it means to break free. This is what ‘Heart Escaping a Shell’ is all about, a beating heart fighting to be free in the world, with no false beliefs and weird and foolish preconceptions... "Just" a heart that is making experiences and enjoying the world so big all around us." - NikMartken
