SPECIAL - The Black Cat

from Melody's Ambience Sleep · host Melody

Settle into the deep quiet of my solitary woodland cottage for this Halloween special. For three decades, I have been the silent custodian of this ancient stone home, privy to a recurring, inexplicable ritual that defies time and logic.Every few years, without fail, a jet-black cat appears on the doorstep. It demands entry, not with a sound, but with an overwhelming, silent pressure. Once inside, the creature ignores my home and me, walking purposefully to the immense, empty fireplace. There, in the cold, dark stone cavern, it sits, a figure carved from shadow, staring unblinkingly at a single, blank spot on the wall before vanishing into the twilight.What is the cat waiting for? And why does it always return to the cold heart of the house?This special story is steeped in sleepy dread and scored with spooky, ambient and hauntingly distant music. Lie back and allow the long, quiet mystery of my cottage wash over you.🎧 To find all my Podcasts, such as 'Melody's Ambience Meditation', just search for 'Melody's Ambience' in your favourite app.💌 Get in touch with me @melodysambience on Facebook and Instagram or email [email protected] ❤️

TomCattt Thomas Patton From the beginning music has prowled with accordion lessons at a young age, followed by sax, blues harp and more recently piano, vocals, song writing and recording. Thomas Patton (AKA TomCattt) credits his mother for his stage name "TomCattt” as she was big on nick names for those she held close to her heart. TomCattt's music is best described as easy listening and sometimes retro, yet with a contemporary mix and feel. Accompanied by the creative tracks of a number of gifted musicians, his first album Hiiyaaaaaaaaaaa inspires imagination and finds a way to impress with a unique vocal sound, compelling harmony and gripping melody. The lyrical content is in fact a living reflection of this artists emotional journey that followed leaving love, finding a new love only to lose love once again. Hiiyaaaaaaaaaaa was released on June 1st, 2013 and all are invited to Soundcloud, Bandcamp, ReverbNation and Cdbaby where "A Question" is free download and to enjoy TomCattt's website tomcattt.com.
