Solstice Weather Report
 
These solstice eyes 
have learned to disagree
with the varnish and dies
of vain pleasantry

The ugly devices of self-serving goons
casting their angst ridden bases
only to float their ego-balloons
have erased all the sky's visual graces.

This Solstice skin
has learned to shy away
from the deceptively Thin
pvc overlay.

this discount-priced vortex of dime-store illusion
raises hope from the ground at it's gust front
only to soil soils with futile pollution
as it scatters it's load in the minds of those stunned.

These Solstice ears
have learned to listen in
to the grumblings of fears
in the voice therein

Bared. in the open, prone to transform
Buds turn to flower when graced by the soft rain
fears provide courage to transcend the norm
letting go and becoming are one and the same.

Solstice Weather Report(A poem by Jo Richter)

This is an alternate mix of IPG1's Heavy Magic.   This was my original direction with this tune  - more funky and electronic, but the previous mix idea hit me and I couldn't put it down until it was done.  Now they're both done.  enjoy!

music/mix/production -TexMex Shaman

Gimme that mic----- once committed there's no limit
My true friend to the end----and I'm in it to win it
Putting art to the verse-----it's simply amazing
From the start I traverse the bars----fired up and blazing
Spit a bar and rehearse----- but --son----Still not done
Pull another out the air--------where'd that verse come from
Could it be that easy-----------that's a conundrum
Don't believe what you're hearing---- not until I'm all done
Ride the bars of the track -----without hesitation
Provide a look back ----for future generations
There's a real simple answer -----to this equations
IPG1's on the mic---and he rock the nation

-----driven ------impulsive ------true that
------ given -----prospective----got that
-------proven----progressive----on track
------infusing the message------ that's pure fact
------unforgiving ---unrelenting---like close combat
Pass me the mic and then——step the fuck back
It’s the underground————baby—a total—-power pack
———Underground ---domain--YEAH!---don't forget that-----
--Precision on the mic no regrets—-bitch I said it
------if I said it--- it's so --you better know
Come on let's get it--let's go----let's go--
living the——-highs ———as well as the lows
Keys from the underground—-Anything goes
Apts to the penthouse---yeah----maybe so—- but I’m
Trading the jeep for a Rolls —- just so you know
freedom of choice——-come on let’s go
Making my own laws——-so———fuck five-O
fuck five-O

——————-Cause there’s ----- no where to go but Up from the bottom
The art the craft the skillzzzz---yeah I gottem
Erupting from the pressure-----so� follow the flow
And I ain’t gonna stop until the whole hill glows
————-until the whole hill glows
Chorus
Little did they all know
ready from the word go
a born leader ——was never —-meant to follow
Creative—-innovator ——- that skill set you can borrow
￼a hustlers a schemer——i’mer holler back tomorrow

****
Incinerate trackss———￼That’s legendary
Life’s....all —business—-so —-it’s necessary
Mind body and spirit—-the souls outta body——...
Flame on —-ignite the fires—- then I’m gone
Game on—-Been fighting the fight ——since I was born
Turn up—- haters—you been —informed
Aims on —target—- I don’t miss —-forewarned
Dream on—— think you nice like this——-ahhh—come on

bringing fire to the game
Ignition to the flames
Pyro the name----No Hype—morals or- shame
going hard———just so —-you all know
If I crash and burn—-flame on —————-It’s just pyro
Bring it full circle—-ignition to the flame
Spark a fire——once it’s lit————it will ——never be the same

Soundscape resetting of Procession of Fools and Dunces lyrics by @mono-ha-music
“Fools and dunces proceed without control or caution
Decency is absent as they blunder on their way.
Who governs those who govern? Who flicks off the last light switch?
Who speaks up for the speechless? No one gives them a say.
It’s no illusion, it’s true confusion, a multitude of problems
Woe, bluster and clutter are the disorder of the day.
Decisions un-reviewed, all logic discontinued
All roadmaps cast aside now
Fools and Dunces run and hide now…”

Delayed Intuitions

Her Majesty's Elite Equestrian Forces

After taking a hiatus I'd like to turn your attention to this latest upload of mine, featuring samples of the oud, a stringed instrument common to the Middle East. Please bear in mind that I didn't play the oud; sadly, I am not such a virtuoso. However, I am getting quite experienced in choosing samples that fit my jam sessions, and using this exotic instrument yielded quite enthralling results in my humble opinion.

In this particular session I was experimenting with G minor, which took me outside of my usual comfort zone of C minor. As so often the case, I used a combination of Eurorack modules, the Arturia MircroBrute, and some pre-prepared drum and drone pad samples. These sounds were looped on the Boss RC-300 loop station. 

After setting up the sound frame using Eurorack and the Arturia MicroBrute, I played back a couple of Youtube videos together with my sounds; something that I have been practicing for a quite a while now. At the end I settled for following two videos:
- G minor oud Improvisation (https://youtu.be/vIBjXLFv1vE)
- Emotional Gm (G minor) CHORD - Ambient Backing Track #13 (https://youtu.be/PLqvVSGuRlI)

The jam session was recorded in Audacity. In post-production I used the best parts from the jam session to create this track. As I already expected, I had some trouble with playing back the oud sounds in such a manner that they fit the track and especially its tempo. So I had to heavily edit these samples in post production and put them back together with my sounds in order for them to sound as desired. While doing so, I also employed some reverb, high pass filters and a limiter within Audacity, albeit very sparingly. Other than that, no elaborate effects or mastering techniques were used, you basically listening to a short and condensed version of the jam session.

As always, the result is highly dynamic, so headphones are recommended. Also, please turn up that volume knob because Loudness War is for losers!
