Through the trees, a forest
The end has started,
the beginning begun.

Tides are turning
War was over, 
or so we thought

*Out with the old
In with the new
if you don't know 
which is which
what you're gonna do?

You chose, you stepped, 
you thought you knew, 
Yet the tree still asks: 
Who chooses who?
Who chooses who?

Keep on climbing the decision tree
Up the branches, to infinity
decided for you and me

For Regulo Tortolero:

A través de los árboles, un bosque
El fin ha comenzado,
el comienzo comenzó.

Las mareas están cambiando
La guerra había terminado, 
o eso pensábamos

Fuera el viejo
Dentro el nuevo
si no sabes 
cuál es cuál
¿qué vas a hacer?

Elegiste, diste un paso, 
creíste que lo sabías, 
Sin embargo, el árbol sigue preguntando: 
¿Quién elige a quién?
¿Quién elige a quién?

Sigue subiendo
el árbol de las decisiones
Al final seremos libres

Decision tree

Glory

How fun it is to play an instrument! Repeating the same phrase over and over is like a child's game. I'm a grown-up, so I try to make a different phrase, but I get attached to the phrase I've played many times, so I can't change it well. Maybe I should play using chord tones like bebop. I hate practicing, so it's impossible for me.

Trust
noun
Firm belief in the integrity, ability, or character of a person or thing; confidence or reliance.
"trying to gain our clients' trust; taking it on trust that our friend is telling the truth."
The condition and resulting obligation of having confidence placed in one.
"violated a public trust."
One in which confidence is placed.
- The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition

Once broken, trust is often irreparable...
We place our trust in a corrupt society / government / people / technology
(Thus becoming the guinea pigs of behavioural engineering / manipulation)
We are gaslit
Being lied to is normal
We are programmed to believe that we are weak / not enough
We are taught to seek outside ourselves
We are whittled away / divided / disengaged / enslaved
We choose to give our power away due to fear

We allow this

Ignorance is not an excuse

Rise up
Claim your power
Find / know yourself
Reject the narrative
Pain is power
Don't run from it
You are the creator of your experiences
You need nothing but faith in yourself
In you are all things
All possibilities
Be real
At any cost
The cost of illusion is lament
Be a true and trustworthy human being
The rewards are beyond description
🖤
Do you trust yourself
To live an authentic life? 

Blind Trust

originally posted on the M.E. profile as "Kiko- Japanese Ghost Girl",  for the Darksiders Cabin in the Woods playlist.

 Ukabarenairei- 浮かばれない(cannot rest in peace) + 霊 (spirit).  Essentially, the Restless Dead. Often used for those who died in isolated places, like mountains, whose bodies were not properly cared for.

Blink Twice - Ukabarenairei

Now available- Blink Twice - Newer Unknown Breeds 
https://moodexhibit.bandcamp.com/album/newer-unknown-breeds-expanded-edition

Expanded version of Blink Twice's 2nd album (originally released 1998), with bonus never before released material from 2000-2003

"Newer Unknown Breeds" was at the time a further development in sound for Blink Twice. The album expanded on the techno and electro genre much more than Blink Twice's debut "Other Locations". There was an increase usage of sampling on this collection of material, often with looped effects incorporated to add further density. With the blend of tribal and industrial elements remaining, it serves as an adventurous concoction of experimental rhythmic and darker ambient electronic music.


For the full scope of my output including new Blink Twice tracks,  I direct you to my main Mood Exhibit account- https://soundcloud.com/r-salchaks-mood-exhibit
Blink Twice  is my alter ego project of electro/industrial/dark ambient/experimental.
This account has no more room for uploads, but Blink Twice still exists as my dark subconscious -
