Hi guys!!!!!!!! We've missed you!!!!!!! We hope you enjoy this video dedicated to baby Archie. (We made a similar video for Emmie after she was born...you can see it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QJ8yCzLxZM)
It's been eons since our last video. We hope everyone is staying healthy and hanging in there. If you missed our update in June, it's basically that we: had a baby (duh), bought a new house on the West Coast (mainly to take advantage of major grandparent help from across the border in Vancouver, Canada ๐), the pandemic hit, we moved, aaaaaand... we've been waiting for the border to open ever since!!!!!!! These are such difficult times, but we feel lucky that we've at least been able to spend a lot of time enjoying our kids. We're in the midst of construction on our new recording studio, which was delayed because of Covid, but once that's finished in December we look forward to sharing that new space with you all in our next videos!
A note on this song choice, if anyone is curious why we picked it. We obviously worship Mariah, but we also LOVE Schitt's Creek, which I binge-watched in the early months of breastfeeding Archie at all hours of the day and night. So I weirdly associate Archie with that show, and of course David Rose's favorite singer is Mariah, so... a no brainer! ๐
Special thank you to our nanny Hannah for her help filming!

LYRICS:
We were as one, babe
For a moment in time
And it seemed everlasting
That you would always be mine
Now you wanna be free
So I'm letting you fly
'Cause I know in my heart, babe
Our love will never die, no
(CHORUS): You'll always be a part of me
I'm part of you indefinitely
Boy, don't you know you can't escape me?
Ooh, darling, 'cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way, you're never gonna shake me
Ooh, darling, 'cause you'll always be my baby
I ain't gonna cry, no
And I won't beg you to stay
If you're determined to leave, boy
I will not stand in your way
But inevitably
You'll be back again
'Cause you know in your heart, babe
Our love will never end, no
(CHORUS)
I know that you'll be back, boy
When your days and your nights get a little bit colder
I know that you'll be right back, baby
Oh, baby, believe me it's only a matter of time
(CHORUS)
You and I will always be
BROOKLYN DUO BIO:
Founded in 2014, Brooklyn Duo has quickly established itself as one of todayโs most successful classical crossover ensembles. Through its creative arrangements and live video performances, the piano and cello duo has garnered a huge following, with over 1.1 million YouTube subscribers and over 150 million streams annually on platforms such as Spotify and Pandora Radio.
In 2014, the couple arranged and recorded two pop covers and released them on YouTube. Shakira noticed the duoโs cover and promoted it to her 130 million-plus fan base, saying: โWe're loving Brooklyn Duo's piano/cello cover of Empire! Great work guys." The boost that resulted from that exposure and the positive response they were getting on YouTube encouraged Marnie and Patrick to continue creating videos. (Other notable shout-outs since then include ones from Taylor Swift, a-ha and Pearl Jam.)
Today, Marnie and Patrick have released over 100 videos on their Brooklyn Duo YouTube channel and 9 albums of covers, spanning artists from The Beatles to Metallica to Ariana Grande. They also have a second YouTube channel, "Brooklyn Classical", which aims to introduce classical music to a larger audience through high quality, live video performances. Brooklyn Classical often hosts high-profile guest artists, including the world-renowned Dover and Escher string quartets, percussionist Ivan Trevino and cellist Cicely Parnas.
Popular classical music stations Classic FM and WQXR regularly share Brooklyn Duoโs music on their social media pages, with Classic FM calling the duo โmasters of the artfully planned pop cover.โ Their music has also been featured on several television shows, including Grey's Anatomy, Pretty Little Liars, Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist and America's Got Talent.

๐ง About This Track
This 3 minutes audio journey has been thoughtfully composed to provide an authentic experience featuring rain sounds that have been carefully recorded and mastered for optimal relaxation. Every element has been balanced to ensure a consistent experience throughout, without jarring transitions or sudden changes that might disrupt your relaxation. The audio quality maintains professional standards, making it suitable for high-quality speakers, headphones, or sleep systems.
This audio experience features a carefully balanced sound profile with slow tempo and gentle intensity. The mix has been optimized for extended listening, with frequency ranges that promote relaxation without fatigue. Whether listening through speakers or headphones, the spatial qualities of the recording create an immersive environment that transports you away from daily concerns.
Listening to this audio can provide numerous benefits for both mental and physical well-being. The carefully designed soundscape promotes parasympathetic nervous system activation, helping the body shift from 'fight or flight' mode into 'rest and digest' mode. Regular listening can help establish healthy relaxation habits and improve overall stress management.
The science of sound therapy draws from multiple disciplines: psychology, neuroscience, and acoustic ecology. Research consistently shows that ambient sounds can modulate autonomic nervous system activity, shifting the body from stress response (sympathetic activation) toward relaxation response (parasympathetic activation). This occurs through multiple pathways: masking of disruptive environmental sounds, providing gentle cognitive engagement that prevents anxious rumination, and creating predictable soundscapes that signal safety to primitive brain regions. Regular exposure to relaxing audio can help establish positive feedback loops where the brain learns to associate certain sounds with calm states.
The community response to this audio has been genuinely appreciative, with 16,248 likes reflecting the genuine impact it has had on listeners worldwide. In the comments section, listeners share personal stories of how this audio has helped them through difficult times, aided their sleep, or provided a reliable source of calm during stressful periods. Common emotional responses include feeling happy, demonstrating the profound effect well-crafted audio can have on our mental state. Many listeners return to this track regularly, considering it an essential part of their self-care routine. The consistent quality and reliable results have built a dedicated community of listeners who trust this audio for their relaxation needs.
To get the most from this audio experience, consider your listening environment and equipment. Find a comfortable position and allow yourself to fully receive the audio experience. Quality headphones can enhance the spatial qualities of the recording, though speakers work well for creating ambient environments. Adjust volume to your preferenceโlower for background ambience, slightly higher for active listening. Consistency in your listening routine can amplify benefits over time, as your mind learns to associate these sounds with relaxation.
This audio is particularly effective during: After a stressful day when you need to decompress; During quiet evening hours for peaceful ambience; Weekend relaxation and self-care time; Any moment when you need to step away from daily pressures. The versatility of this track means it adapts well to various situations and times of day. Listen when you feel the need for calm, or make it part of your regular routine for cumulative benefits.
