Temple Tears & UREM - Rise

With the old library

Greetings, 
it has been quite sometime.. 

Music hasn't been flowing in the same way.. but as is the way of the universe, energy is always moving, transferring. 

A new job, other artistic outlets, and study keeps me occupied completely.(and games and shit too).
I very much appreciate all the new follows and support that comes fourth each day. While I toil in mundane affairs at the day job It genuinely surprises me that people still continue to show love, and follow. 

I don't know where you come from, do tell me. I am very interested to know. 
I wanted to share a project that was long in the works, but still released some time ago. 

Teaming up with @https://soundcloud.com/mpadrums The track is part of a larger work, a international collaborative effort. Limited press 12 inch viny, this track is entitled 'Da flow' and I'm the only English speaking MC on the piece.
Myself on the vocals recorded in the bedroom, Mpadrums did virutally everything else.

I suppose if one were to infer, the notion behind the song is about martial things in aspect. Improvement, combat, skill & strategy. 

A small part of the ShinobiStyle.

Da Flow: Produced by MPadrums [Lyrics in Description]

Greetings, It is that time once again - for a new jammo to emerge. 

This piece is a collaborative effort, Track 7 or on the vinyl B.1 from @https://soundcloud.com/devaloop's New Album From the Bits to Cosmos. 
Vocals: Malev Da Shinobi 
Production: devaloop
Mastered by B-Side
The EP will featuring production work from Devaloop, and include a number of international emcees on the tracks. As a preview type jam - I hope that this song serves to entice ones interests for what is to come on the EP. 

A throwback joint. Something I might make some what of an annual thing, if the future permits. Even though the reference to which I am throwing back to is over 3 years old now... :soundcloud.com/malevmc/shinobistyle 

I wanted to make a more traditional type song once more, but something that signified to my minds eye that of sneaking throughout the night, throwing all types of shadowy raps at enemy ninjas. 
The lyrics are still spiced with a bit of introspective content, referinng to heritage, and self mastery. 
The other flavors within the words are hints of more boastful skill based lines, loose popculture references, inserted with rythmic structures that I find fun to listen to, and even more fun to throw. 

I wanted to signify, and solidify the Shinobi Style once more, with a new anthem. Using/Updating the hook section from the older jam, and flipping it with the newly learned ryhme techniques. 

The shinobistyle isn't an interesting or fun name, or something that I use for the sake of outward appearance. Though there are many inspirations - 

It comes from a learned & applied/interpreted personal belief system that I have developed through many different readings based on the spirtitual/cultural teachings of the first ninja people during the 15th century; with the inclusion of other practiced spiritual systems, both ancient and contemporary. 

In spirit, that is what this song is about. 

Much love to devaloop for thinking of me for this work. The same gratitude is extended to B-Side for the mastering work, I am completely stoked on the final rendition of the song, well worth the wait.

El Jazzy Chavo - Equipoise

Greeting. 

I come with tidings, and a new Shinobi Style Jam brought to the realm of reality from that of psychological-fiction. 

Many thanks to Foka; https://soundcloud.com/savethesealz for the instrumental, I feel very lucky to have such sounds lend identity to that which I write, and vice versa. It's incredible. 
The title Ronin, is a Japanese word, for 'masterless-Samurai'. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C5%8Dnin

As dictated by Bushido, the Code of the Samurai, a Samurai was supposed to take his own life upon the passing of his master. 

At one point, it had been said: 'to die for thy master, is better to outlive thy master.' 
But these traditions grew old, with the changing of the Ancient times in Japan. 
With the civil warring states ending, the Samurai class found their purpose a little shaky. 
With no wars to fight, what is a warrior to do? 

With such thinking, through whichever way a Samurai found himself masterless, shamed or cast out;
A Ronin turned to other, more normal ways of life. But still carrying their 2 swords, as a symbol of their true nature, though, not all was good. 
Ronin is not a desirable title, nor position. It was associated with thieves, Bandits, beggars driven to the point of desperation from once the most esteem'd class in their Society. 

A Ronin is in some sense, a Samurai- who is 'no longer' a Samurai. Even in Japan today, the word still exist to describe someone who is between jobs, or unable to graduate. 
 
I resonate with this title, for this very sense. 
I feel that I am a Ronin; my principles armed on my heart, in the very way the Ronin of old fashioned their swords at their waist. Though on the surface of me, it may appear to those that do not understand my ways, that I am someone odd, or unusual. 

It may appear that I am diverging from the path, but it really only is following my heart. 
Realizing there is no path, but the one we carve ourselves. 

Within this song, there is this lesson; 

Fashion your ethics and principles, your morality and true nature into a sharp blade in your mind. Arm yourself with this weapon. 
Be willing to use them at any time, to cut down any foe or obstacle that would stand in your path. 


Thanks for checkin it out. Lyrics below.

Rōnin: Produced By Foka1200 [Lyrics in Description]

Hello again! if you're reading this, you have my deepest gratitude. 

This song originally started out as a personal piece of writing. 
Kind of like a reminder, to myself about some certain things I should remain mindful of. 

I spend a lot of my time alone, and there are both times of good and bad within that. 
I've mostly grown up by myself, in my most personal times of self discovery I was more or less on my own. If not in the physical sense, then the mental sense where I'd find myself having some sort of epiphany all to myself while surrounded by others. 
And now, here trying to do music, I've found myself yet again alone in my ambitions. 
But this time, the decision was in careful examination.. with the past, and the self. 

I have many peers, amazing ones at that here in my hometown. And there are many outlets I think i could pursue to take things to the next level. But I do not want to. 
Not in that way. As hard as this is, by myself, for whatever reason I feel as If i know with certainty, that I forge on by myself - the Results will be so much greater in the end. 

So, here I am, by my lonesome trying to carve the path I feel is true. 
And that is the message that is laced into the song - The concept of the Soul Warrior, which in some sense we all are. The Soul Warrior is the warrior who fights your battles on the inside of you, your conscious in which you debate all manner of things. And in this struggle, often you are alone.. No one to help, no one to hear what you say inside. No one to respond to those unheart words.
Only you, standing against and with yourself, alone in the darkest of nights. 
We all must fight on the inside, but what matters on the outside, is for whichside on the inside we fight. 
Do we fight because we feel strong? Or do we fight because we feel weak?

Answering this question.. will shed light on many aspects of the character you posses. 
So please look inside and examine the battles you fight. 
Cultivation on the inside, only meanings blooming from the inside- bursting to the out. 

------------------- LYRICS BELOW ----------------------

INTRO/VERSE 1 
SEE WELL'AH, 
LET ME GET UP INTO
I'M NOT TRYING TO WIN- THOUGH, I'M NOT TRYING TO LOSE,
THESE ARE ONLY TERMS USED, 
TO DESCRIBE A TRUTH - & ONE, THAT YOU MUST CHOOSE, 
TO ACCEPT, OR DISAPPROVE- 
UNTIL PAID DUES-
THE ONLY ONE WALKING IN YOUR SHOES IS YOU,
&WHAT IS SEEN IN THE VIEW, -IS NOT ALL ARE IN-TUNE
OR THINK--
THE SAME THOUGHTS THAT YOU THINK, 
OR KEEP--
THE VALUES THAT YOU KEEP, &TO EXPECT THESE THINGS,  
IS A FOOLS DEED, 
&I PERCEIVE 
ALL DETAILS THATS KEY,- TO THE INNER PEACE, PIECED BEYOND SKIN DEEP.



HOOK:
I SEEK THE STILLNESS OF THE MIND,  
CALM THE INNERFIGHT- THAT ONE FIGHTS ON THE INSIDE-FIRE BURN BRIGHT-
SOUL-WARRIOR-ALONE IN THE NIGHT.  


VERSE 2 @ 1:11
WHEN LIFE, SERVES TO CHOKE, 
OR CURVE THE THROW- I VANISH, 
IN DA SHINOBI-SMOKE- 
WITH A ROAST, OF MY TWO FAVORITE THINGS-
GROWN FROM GROUND BEAN,& GROUND UP LEAVES- 
I CLOSE MY EYES TO SEE- 
INNER EYESIGHT DEEP, THOUGHTS-STRING,&DREAMWEAVE--
&THE WAY THAT I WOULD THINK, 
IS MY SOLE GREATEST STRENGTH,  
AND YET- IT'S PRECISELY WHAT WOULD MAKE ME WEAK- 

BUT AS A SOUL WARRIOR, 
ONLY OPPONENT THAT I SEE- ISA REFLECTION OF ME.
AND THIS LESSON, 
I THINK IS IMPORTANT TO RECEIVE, &PERCEIVE, 
NOT TO CAST ASIDE, ONLY TO REMIND, 
WHEN YOU'RE LOSING THE  FIGHT, 
&THERE'S NO ONE AT YOUR SIDE. 
AT THAT TIME, WE FIND -- INSIDE, WHATS RIGHT
OUR INNER SOURCE OF LIGHT,
THE STRENGTH TO FIGHT-
TO STRIKE-THE FEAR FROM THE NIGHT SKY. 

HOOK:
I SEEK THE STILLNESS OF THE MIND, 
TO CALM THE INNERFIGHT- THAT ONE FIGHTS ON THE INSIDE-
THE FIRE BURN BRIGHT-
SOUL-WARRIOR-ALONE IN THE NIGHT.

Hello my friends! I am really excited to be writing this update and sharing this track with you today. And I'm really excited about the Patreon project as it grows, allowing me to create and share these tracks with you that would otherwise likely take a lot longer to come to fruition. Please, if you enjoy this song - consider supporting my on Patreon.com/malev - even $5 can make a big difference and allow to continue to bring out these tracks to the globe!

So, about this track. Man, I've been sitting on this one for a long time.. not intentionally.. but it's just the flow of life, the movement. I'm not as attuned to being a full-time musician as I'd like to be somedays, and it's really quite hard to settle into that mind space, with everything that goes on around me. But, when i heard this track for the first time from my man Beatmaschine, I was hooked - I'm completely hooked on his production style and there is seriously not 1 beat that he produces that doesn't sound amazing. I'm straight up honored to be on a production like this. 

The song was pretty natural to write, I ended up using a mixture of older material and written new material to create the landscape for this new track, with a stylistic hook that I think is a fun evolution of some of my singing chants that I've been putting in songs over the years. The end result is a really fun lyrical ride with a lot of interesting melodic elements that I really enjoy. It's a really fun song to sing and perform with it's contrasts of melodically flung lyric sections and practically-yelling-hook sections. Lyrically the song is a showcase style song that is just talking about having cool style and that leans into the name of the track! Delectable. 

We're coming with some fine dining-type tastes my friends! And If you're here, reading these words and listening to this song.. MY GOODNESSS do you have some good taste. I love you for it. 

I really hope that you enjoy this track, please visit and show love to those who helped me create it.
