1. An independent electronic music project created in Vermont, USA by Tyler Shaw in early 2011.
Being skilled in music theory after 8 years of violin lessons and teaching himself how to play the guitar, he created his first EP, Never Say Forever, using the digital audio workstation GarageBand, but removed it later, due to his lacking production skills at the time.
After switching from GarageBand to FL Studio and figuring out how to use it, he released his debut album, Reflections Of A Dream, in December 2011.
Before the release, he asked the indie musician Yoav Landau, better known as The Living Tombstone, to remix one of the songs on his debut. Landau agreed and shortly after the remix was uploaded on YouTube, Shaw's fanbase began to grow.
As of September 2019 his discography consists of 11 full-length studio albums, 1 TV-Show based album, 10 EPs, 5 remix albums, 2 soundtrack albums, 2 compilation albums, and 22 singles, as well as a number of free-to-download songs on YouTube and SoundCloud under the name 'Aviators'.
His most recent 12th studio album, titled 'The Cinematic Future', released March 6, 2020.

Traveler's Song
Aviators Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sing to raise our spirits in great despair
Through the ashes of oblivion
Quick and unseen like the dragon's offspring
For we owe no debts and bow to no king
Every war has its costs and we've paid
Won by the bond of the party we've made
As the demons listen we strike them down
Fighting back the rifts of blood
Sent from the sky lies a angel in need
Give him muse to strengthen and words to heed
Heaven's doused and set alight
We're knocking on the gates of hell tonight
Broken swords and dragon's bones
Scattered on the way back home
Beating to the sound of clashing steel
When they're on our heels
Now chant the tales and legends told
Strengthened by the hymns of old
Weathered as this winding road is long
So we sing our traveler's song
Play out a spell in your sequence of chords
To inspire and sharpen our rusted swords
Echoing the whisper of the trees
Creep 'long a path where a thousand bards failed
From the thick West Tyrian jungle trails
Come from afar to set prisoners free
Into dark tangled depths from the open sea
Broken swords and dragon's bones
Scattered on the way back home
Beating to the sound of clashing steel
When they're on our heels
Now chant the tales and legends told
Strengthened by the hymns of old
Weathered as this winding road is long
So we sing our traveler's song
Second chances don't come cheap
So keep alert and on your feet
An ancient spirit's song will heal our wounds
Unabashed by our defeat
Spite the bloodstains on these cobble streets
A message to the gods to see us through
Ever heard, yet rarely sung
So raise your voice and praise the sun
I call a new rebirth to keep us strong
Countless souls along the path
Lost to fiends and lords of wrath
But we'll return to play our final song
Broken swords and dragon's bones
Scattered on the way back home
Beating to the sound of clashing steel
When they're on our heels
Now chant the tales and legends told
Strengthened by the hymns of old
Weathered as this winding road is long
So we sing our traveler's song

The lyrics are full of vivid imagery, drawing the listener into the story of the brave travelers who must fight their way back home through distant, dangerous lands. The opening lines invoke a call to action, to sing for the lost and to raise spirits in times of great despair. The travelers owe no debts and bow to no king, and are united by the bond of their shared goal. The lyrics also reference dragons, angels, broken swords and dragon's bones, all of which suggest that the travelers are fighting mythical beasts and taking on impossible foes.
The lyrics of the song also suggest that the travelers are constantly on guard, navigating difficult terrain and constantly battling demons and other supernatural creatures. Broken swords and dragon's bones are scattered along the way back home, and the sound of clashing steel is never far away. Yet despite the challenges they face, the travelers are strengthened by the hymns of old, weathered as this winding road is long.

Line by Line Meaning
Sing for the lost, for eternal affairs
Sing to remember those who are gone, for things that will last forever
Sing to raise our spirits in great despair
Sing to lift our mood and give us hope in difficult situations
Through the ashes of oblivion
Amid the ruins of forgotten times
Quick and unseen like the dragon's offspring
Moving fast and undetected, like the spawn of a mythical creature
For we owe no debts and bow to no king
We are free and independent, not beholden to anyone's authority
Every war has its costs and we've paid
War always has consequences, and we have already suffered them
Won by the bond of the party we've made
We have triumphed thanks to the unity of our group
Warn with a call that the battle starts now
Sound the alarm to let everyone know that the fight is beginning
As the demons listen we strike them down
Taking advantage of the demons' confusion, we attack and defeat them
Fighting back the rifts of blood
Struggling against the manifestations of violence and bloodshed
Sent from the sky lies a angel in need
An angel descends from the heavens, seeking our help
Give him muse to strengthen and words to heed
Inspire him and offer wisdom to guide him
Heaven's doused and set alight
Even the divine realm is being affected by the conflict
We're knocking on the gates of hell tonight
We are daring to face the most dangerous and dark forces
Broken swords and dragon's bones
The remnants of past battles, symbolized by discarded weapons and mythical creatures
Scattered on the way back home
Left behind as we make our way home after the fight
Beating to the sound of clashing steel
Echoing the sounds of combat and fighting
When they're on our heels
When our enemies are chasing us
Now chant the tales and legends told
Recall the stories of bravery and heroism from the past
Strengthened by the hymns of old
Enriched and fortified by the traditions and wisdom of our predecessors
Weathered as this winding road is long
Despite the challenges that come along this lengthy, winding journey
So we sing our traveler's song
We keep moving forward, singing a song that keeps us on track
Play out a spell in your sequence of chords
Create a magical atmosphere with the music you play
To inspire and sharpen our rusted swords
To encourage and prepare us better for the battles ahead
Echoing the whisper of the trees
The music blending in with the sound of nature
Creep 'long a path where a thousand bards failed
Traveling on a journey where many musicians have tried, but failed
From the thick West Tyrian jungle trails
From the treacherous West Tyrian jungle paths
Come from afar to set prisoners free
Coming from far away to set those oppressed free
Into dark tangled depths from the open sea
Exploring deep and complex places from the vast open sea
Second chances don't come cheap
Opportunities to try again don't come easy
So keep alert and on your feet
Stay vigilant and be ready for whatever comes next
An ancient spirit's song will heal our wounds
A timeless, soothing melody that brings us solace and relief
Unabashed by our defeat
Not letting a loss get in the way of our progress
Spite the bloodstains on these cobble streets
Ignoring the gruesome aftermath of a violent conflict
A message to the gods to see us through
Making an appeal to the divine to help us succeed
Ever heard, yet rarely sung
A song that many have heard of, but few have actually sung
So raise your voice and praise the sun
Sing loud and proud, celebrating the light and hope of a new day
I call a new rebirth to keep us strong
Invoking a fresh start to motivate and empower us
Countless souls along the path
Many individuals who have lost their lives on this journey
Lost to fiends and lords of wrath
Taken by evil creatures and powerful rulers
But we'll return to play our final song
We will keep moving, making progress, and finishing what we started

Everybody's got a story they must tell,
the adventure that came before we fell.
The motivation that drove us on,
put us on the path to the glory we won.
Now hear my song, my friends,
let it be the shield that defends.
Let the notes I string across my lyre,
bring us safely through the fire.
The tavern is the home we know,
where fine stories and ale flow.
The place where our journey beings,
and the place where our journey will end.
Now I can hear the sound,
of heartbeats all around.
You know there's magic in the night,
and it will guide us in this fight.
The party that we build,
will not leave our dreams unfulfilled.
The mockers said we never had a chance,
but we're the ones who have the last laugh.
Guided by our gods who stand,
watching over this land,
we were chosen to walk this path,
we will protect all from demons' wrath.
And man's greed will attempt to control us,
they will call us treacherous,
refusing to bow down to any king,
we are the wild cards, striking with sting.
Now chant the tales and legends told,
strengthened by the hymns of old.
Allow your heart to be filled with song,
to keep you awake this whole night long.
I tell the story of my sister's heart,
and of the pain that caused her to fall apart.
I sing the song of my brother's victory,
but I know that it cost him bitterly.
I keep in my heart the things I have seen,
of the runes and temples most obscene.
Of the secrets and lies that we seek to hide,
that could destroy us from the inside.
Everybody's got a story they must tell,
the adventure that came before we fell.
The motivation that drove us on,
put us on the path to the glory we won.
So, everyone raise your glass,
and remember to hold fast,
the tavern is the home we know,
where fine stories and ale flow,
that we return here when our journey's done,
and we can rest in the setting sun.

This makes me think of a few random people from the present getting dumped into this past fantasy world and got stuck with this tribe with weird culture, food and dances. As they get dragged into the middle of a battle, caused by a long going war, they have to work together for their survival, and bond.
After the battle, all the modern people are willing to fight for the tribe's cause, and are all partially experienced fighters now and know what they're getting into. They decide the next battle would be at the "Gates of Hell", and the Protagonist [who has been trying to get the present people to get along with the tribe from the beginning, being modern himself] starts singing.
The present people give the beat [the claps], while a teenager who has been 'captured' while playing the guitar [and therefore still has it] was one of the first to have wanted to be friends with the tribe [being the youngest one there, innocence ya know] and starts playing the guitar which blends in with the...polkas? Idk, those instruments at the beginning, forgot what they're called whoops.
And it's supposed to represent harmony and bonding and evolution, as they slowly get out of their shell while singing and the present people start to hum/sing? and the guitar guy sings along with the protagonist [the higher pitched echo at the end] and all is well.
And at the end there would be either the protagonist or the leader of the tribe saying:
"We're here."
Just an idea, but wouldn't that be neat?
EDIT: also, the protagonist would get the idea to sing after the leader asks what a 'Traveller' is, and gets the urge to explain in the best possible way humanity can

As someone whose played I can see obvious references to the fourth and first acts here.

every great campaign starts in a tavern
every amazing campaign ends with the bard of the group singing this in the same tavern
@isitnotwrittenthat1680
And maybe owning it
@director1336
Had a bard join mid campaign while our party had at the time a half-orc fighter, half-elf monk, twelve year old human sorcerer (I think that was his class), a goblin healer and a pixie ranger. This was how the conversation went. Dwarf bard came up to us asking to join us. I (half-orc fighter) asked him what his quirk was.
He got confused and asked what I meant.
I responded “I have a lust for power that will one day get me killed, our monk constantly prays to a god that doesn’t exist in this universe, we have a kid who can’t talk to any women with a decent chest without wetting himself, a pixie that thinks it’s the top dog and a goblin who is looking after a random dragon egg as if it was her own child.”
He responded with the fact people have told him that being raised by an octopus isn’t normal.
If u want more info on the shit my party has done, just ask.
