This is a remix of the song Leary in the After-World, a track originally composed by Peter Grimbeek that mixes spoken word poetry and electronic music. The original version can be checked out at this link:

https://soundcloud.com/peter-grimbeek/leary-in-the-after-world

The song is about Timothy Leary, the famous American psychologist and writer who gained prominence in the 1960s for his advocacy of the therapeutic and spiritual potential of psychedelic drugs. Leary saw the internet as a continuation of his earlier beliefs in the power of technology to connect people and expand consciousness.

Writer of prose and poetry since mid-1960s, Peter Grimbeek started on acoustic guitar in 1978 and now uses GarageBand and Logic Pro software to compose electronic music. The incredible cadence of his voice while reciting poetry makes a fantastic counterpoint to his electro-style songs. I recommend a visit to his SoundCloud profile:

Hope you enjoy the remix.

LYRICS

Tim departed this life
Seated on a cloud
Like a long lost Pharoah
Having a glorious time.

He retained his famous cool
He kept his wits intact
He ignored the usual lures
I’ll have none of that.

One life ends
Another begins
Still on the outside
Looking in.

After the endless crowd
He found this place quiet
No more friends-followers
To keep him up at night.

But he couldn’t move on
And this was really hard
He liked being a traveller
Not a bird in a yard.

One life ends
Another begins
Still on the outside
Looking in.

For now Tim is numb
But one day soon
His bus will come
A ride out of this room.

He will find a grotto
Sink in its pool deep
Emerge free of the lotto*
Of post-life sleep.

One life ends
Another begins
Still on the outside
Looking in.

Robotic Voices

This song used to be on repeat back in my middle school days, and I can't believe I forgot all about it until I heard it on the radio coming back from the bars a couple weeks ago. It was stuck in my head for a good few weeks before I realized I NEEDED to put my spin on it, and was so grateful that the acapella was officially available. 

It's been a minute since I did a remix like this, but honestly its been such a fun process and takes me back to my OG Soundcloud days. I hope you all enjoy, and DM/Follow on insta (@AashMehtaMusic) if you're interested in playing it in your sets!

Love you all - thanks for listening!
