NMIXX O.O - Baila Remix / Extended Cover Version (Ad Mare Debut Album)

When we think of war & its effects, we think of Men, Women...Children. Places of brick, steel and mortal. Things that can be seen, targeted and destroyed. But what about the unborn mind? What does the unborn child feels in the darkness of the mother's womb?

Does the unborn child know about the violence outside. Does she know how cheap & expendable her life is...? Is she afraid...? Does she feel pain...?

Does the unborn know his life may end before it starts...? Does he hate his killers, the butchers who ripped his unformed body from his mother's womb...?

Revisionist Memories Series

La Infanta Isabel—Children of War  in C minor (OST)

маленькая дорогая, 

Remember how adamant I was when dismissing Socialism? I was so convinced of Western-Style Liberal Democracy inherent superiority. Remember what you always said to me? “…Every society believes in a long scale of gradations of rank and differences of worth…and each requires slavery in some form or another. The rest is just semantics…”

Unconvinced, I kept on pressing the issue, until you said to me, “…it is easy to judge the worth of a Система from the comfort, the safety of white sands and endless breeze. Go to the jungle. See, fight and kill for yourself; then tell me which is better…” And so I did. I saw, I fought…and killed…and nearly died more than once; leaving pieces of my flesh, pieces of my bones…shards of soul behind; but when I saw you again, I understood…

…I understood the weakness of the human soul. I saw, first hand, the smallness of our dreams. I witnessed our irrational and asinine desire to be our own worst enemies. I witnessed the readiness with which we dig our own graves; how we betray our neighbours, our friends. How so easily we breathe life into evil itself…

I now know how a blind desire for more cows justifies the extermination of an entire culture; the erasure of entire villages; the starvation of men, women and child on the whims of a single old man. A pathetic wretch at the sunset of his life, looking to etch his name in history, in glory…in infamy…

When I saw you again that fall morning, so many years ago, I knew everything about you. I knew the why of the scars, the night terrors; the root of the desire to be connected to someone else…yet the steadfast refusal to let anyone near.
I recognized your kind eyes and ready smile, the expert way you wielded a knife. I inhabited your lack of fear while walking the streets alone in the shantytowns…I recognized that briefest of flashes in your eyes, the subtle warning that proclaimed “Hurt me at your own risk…” 

You have been more than a friend, more than an honest counsel. You were, you are…and will forever remain the sole mirror to my soul. In a moment of hubris, I named my first-born after you. Her story has yet to unfold, but so far, I’m unimpressed.

Pious Indulgence Series

Teenaged Wasteland A/K/A Letter to Isabel, Part II

Salting the Earth: The taking of Soledar, Part I in A min. Ch. VII of Ukraine: The Burning of the Phoenix Series.

#Soledar (Соледа́р) formerly known as Karlo-Libknekhtovsk (Карло-Лібкнехтівськ), is a city in Bakhmut Raion, which is located in #Donetsk Oblast of Ukraine.

The Battle of Soledar began in early August, with Russian forces capturing much of the eastern half of Soledar by September, although being stalled afterwards. As of January 11th, control of Soledar is disputed, with some sources claiming that Russia's #Wagner Group were in control of the settlement, while others dispute this version.

Following the capture of #Bakhmutske by the Russian forces on 27 December, Russian sources claimed that Russian forces seized the #Dekonskaya railway station on the southern outskirts of Soledar on 4 January

The fall of Soledar may help Russian troops in their assault on the strategic Ukrainian city of Bakhmut, about 10km (6 miles) to the south west, providing them with a secure artillery position within range of the city.

Ukraine: The Burning of the Phoenix

Salting the Earth: The Taking of Soledar in A minor, Part I (OST)

Salting the Earth: The Taking of Soledar, Part II in A min.
Ch. VIII of Ukraine: The Burning of the Phoenix
According to Ukraine, more than 100 Russian troops were killed in the battle for the eastern town during the past 24 hours. Ukraine said on Thursday its troops were holding out despite heavy fighting on a battlefield littered with bodies in a salt mining town in Eastern Ukraine, where Russian mercenaries have claimed Moscow's first significant gain in half a year.

The ultra-nationalist contract militia Wagner, run by an ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin outside the main chain of military command, claims to have taken Soledar after intense fighting that it said had left the town strewn with Ukrainian dead. Russia says its forces are edging closer to capturing Soledar, a salt-mining town in eastern Ukraine, which would mark an elusive victory for the Kremlin but comes at the cost of heavy Russian casualties and extensive destruction of the territory they claim.

Moscow has held off officially proclaiming victory. "At the moment, there are still some small pockets of resistance in Soledar," Andrei Bayevsky, a Russian-installed local politician, said in an online broadcast. Ukraine has acknowledged Russian advances but Deputy Defence Minister Hanna Malyar told a briefing on Thursday that fighting was still fierce. The Russians were "moving over their own corpses," she said. Reuters was unable to independently verify the situation. “The Russians have literally marched on the bodies of their own soldiers, burning everything on their way,” Kyrylenko said, while reporting that Russian forces had shelled a dozen towns and villages in the region in the past day.

Soledar’s fall would be a prize for a Kremlin starved of good battlefield news in recent months after losing the significant city of Kherson in December. It had barely 10,000 inhabitants before the war. Russia has failed in repeated attempts to capture the far more important nearby city of Bakhmut, 10 times as large. Across Ukraine, the front lines have barely budged since Russia's last big retreat in the south two months ago. Kyiv hopes heavy armour from Western allies will allow it to resume advances.

Russian and Western commentators alike saw attempts to shift blame for setbacks in which Russia has lost around 40 per cent of the territory it had seized since February. The Russians’ tactic in the assault on Soledar has been to send one or two waves of soldiers, many from the private Russian military contractor Wagner Group who take heavy casualties as they probe the Ukrainian defences, a Ukrainian officer near Soledar told The Associated Press. Pavlo Kyrylenko, the governor of Donetsk, told Ukrainian state TV that 559 civilians remained in Soledar, including 15 children, and could not be evacuated. “Russia is driving its own people to the slaughter by the thousands, but we are holding on.”

When asked about Prigozhin’s victory claims, Vladimir Putin’s spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, told journalists: “Let’s not rush, let’s wait for official statements. There is a positive dynamic in progress.”

Salting the Earth: The Taking of Soledar, Part II in A min. (OST)

Bakhmut: The humbling of the Valkyries in C Major, Part I. Chapter IX of Ukraine: The Burning of the Phoenix Series

In late December 2022, the battle for Bakhmut appeared to be on the brink as Russia's mercenary unit, the Wagner Group, suffered heavy losses in the city in Ukraine's eastern Donbas region, according to an assessment by the Institute for the Study of War (ISW).

Russian continues to use their soldiers as cannon fodder. In the battles for Bakhmut and Soledar alone, the Wagner Group private military company lost about 40,000 soldiers, accounting for about two-thirds of its personnel.

Putin tried to give the order to reach the administrative borders of Donetsk region by the end of 2022. It did not work. In fact, they are suffering very unprecedented losses there and attempted to switch to Soledar, where Prigozhin tried to play himself as an independent commander.

He failed: Wagner Group suffered simply incredible losses there. At the moment, about 40,000 personnel are estimated to be killed and wounded, accounting for about two-thirds of this structure.

Russian mercenary boss Yevgeny Prigozhin responded to comparisons between himself and the monk Rasputin who treated the son of the last tsar for haemophilia, saying on Sunday his job was not to staunch bleeding but to spill the blood of Russia’s enemies.

Prigozhin, like Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, another active supporter of Russia’s war, “has positioned himself as a searing critic of military, bureaucratic and business elites who are supposedly failing Putin with their half-hearted, incompetent approach to the war”.

Putin has, in recent days, begun to see Yevgeny Prigozhin as a potential rival to his power in Russia. Given the Kremlin's history of dealing with threats to its power, this doesn't bode well for the Wagner leader.

Bakhmut: The humbling of the Valkyries in C Major, Part II. Chapter X of Ukraine: The Burning of the Phoenix Series.

A former member of the private militia escaped to Norway seeking asylum. He is under tight security over fears for his life. Norwegian authorities say they have detained a Russian man who may have illegally entered the country seeking asylum on January 13. The individual in question, Andrey Medvedev, is a former member of Russia's notorious Wagner Group, a private militia active in Ukraine as well as in Africa and Syria.


Andrey Medvedev, 26, crossed the border into Norway last Friday, where he was detained by border guards. He is currently being held in the Oslo area where he faces charges of illegal entry to Norway, his lawyer Brynjulf Risnes told the BBC. Tarjei Sirma-Tellefsen, police chief of staff in the Norwegian region of Finnmark, said a man had been detained by a border patrol and said he had applied for asylum.


Medvedev is a former soldier in the Russian army. He later served time in prison between 2017 and 2018, before joining the Wagner Group. He was placed in charge of a Wagner division in Ukraine, where the mercenary group supplied him with around 30-40 troops every week. Mr Medvedev said he fled Ukraine in November after being informed that the group intended to extend his contract indefinitely. It is believed Mr Medvedev had taken some evidence of war crimes with him to Norway and that he intends to share his information with groups investigating war crimes in the coming weeks.


The UK's Ministry of Defense officials believe the Wagner Group makes up about 10% of Russia's forces in Ukraine, and played a significant part in helping Moscow's forces take the town of Soledar in eastern Donbas region last week. Briefly arrested upon his arrival in Norway and then released, Medvedev has or will soon be questioned by both Norwegian immigration authorities and the criminal police (Kripos), which is taking part in an international inquiry into war crimes in Ukraine. Medvedev's Norwegian lawyer, Brynjulf Risnes, told AFP his client was "willing to speak about his experiences in the Wagner Group to people who are investigating war crimes".

Brand New Antiquities Series

Nawala sa Pangasinán in B♭ minor, Part I

Comedian Ray Romano once said during one of his stand-up performances that the secret to a life, or rather the secret to finding happiness in life was due our ability to use life’s own edit button. This innate ability we all share to edit events in our past to erase the bits that don’t fit our idyllic recollections.

This is true, think back at any point in your own life and you will see that most of the memories we recall are of the “happy bits”. Long gone are the dark clouds that hung on the periphery; the shades of grey that darken our rainbow.

I think it was Anil Seth who said,

“…Your brain hallucinates your conscious reality…”

This means reality itself is a hallucination concocted by our brain. We call it reality simply because we all agree on the contours of the hallucination and nothing more.

Maybe Ray Romano is right — maybe it’s Anil Seth who nailed the nail on the head. I, for once, am quite happy to delude myself into believing there is light, and love, and laughter in the world.

I am quite content going on believing the world is “shit” ONLY because I have not met a single person that embodies my ideals of honesty, empathy, forthrightness and virtue — but I am sure they are somewhere out there.

Most days, this delusion holds true and my brain goes on creating this hallucination we call reality, in a way that fits my mold. I say most days because yesterday Signor Fortuna ruined my day. He sat there and tore the emperor’s clothes. I tried to resist, cloaking myself in laughter and sunlight; but he would not have it — he lobbed Cynicism and scorn until the Jericho walls were reduced to ruin.

Behind this wall, was not only the naked emperor, but it turned out he never wore clothes. Worse still, he was not a mighty and wise ruler — but instead a hideous creature covered in puss and boils. A weak, jealous and petty shell, bathed in a sea of excrement.

“Humanity?” I cried in vain.

“Is that you?” I asked. I asked myself, where did your empires go? What became of your philosophers, your dreamers…the saints who pointed the way?

You spoke of empathy, of love for our fellow men. Signor Fortuna showed this to be untrue.

“Guarda i tuoi compagni, sciocco! Vedere? Non c’è empatia in questi occhi…”

We see pain, but we don’t see ourselves. Hopelessness and despair colonize our parks, yet we veer left, or step over lump on the sidewalk…We jump over the shit-stained sleeping bag and the soul-less wretch within it.

“Humanity, is that you?”

I asked again. Signor Fortuna was unmoved.

“…Venderanno le loro mogli, la loro casa… il loro primogenito per avere la possibilità di infilarsi l’ago nelle vene…”

Don’t you see? He taunted. It has always been this way. 12,000 years since the last ice age and very little have changed.

This “…Corpus scientiae…” to which you cling, these temples, these oracles…these philosophers you hold so dear. They are nothing but a distraction. A Canàrd we have invented to pass the time in between orgies of violence, greed and unflinching hatred for ourselves…for this world of shit on which we live.

“No! I don’t believe you,” I tried to say.

“…Il y a beaucoup d’amour, de lumière, de fraternité dans ce monde…”
