3rd Rambling: Externalisation of the human psyche has taken on an enormous growth since the emergence of the Web. Before the digital age, our heritage normally lied deeply hidden within each of us, or were confined to stay behind the walls of our homes, hidden from the public, except for a fortunate few of us. Today, we have an external backup of our collective mind easily accessible, at a second to none-cost. Be well advised to bring yourself back the next time you dive deep into the collective (un)conscious, hoping for the archetypes to reveal themselves.

Dreamscape

2nd Rambling: Behold the never ending era of information espionage. Citizens getting oppressed and exploited by their governments covert operations throughout the entire biosphere. Watch history repeat itself with increasingly more sophisticated technological means for achieving these goals. Welcome to the power hungry, control obsessive, never-ending dance of the Stasigrad Station.

Gundahar - Close The Gates

A fantastic collaboration between two musicians who share their passion and their conviction ...
"just out here in the middle of the void,spinning fast around a giant ball of burning gas that's hurdling thru the deepest darkest space .
Meteors and comets are zooming by at breakneck pace
The situation seems to be precarious ,some might even say Nefarious, how can it be that tragedy can be almost hilarious. Stupidity it seems to be the order of the day.
But here we are and here we go onward out, like warriors without a clue, and everyone will play their part,
of this i'm sure, i know it's true."

I imagined the sounds of sap movements under the bark of the tree to create a musical and poetic composition.
A way to make the tree sacred through music ...
"Sap
under its cracked bark
circulates the fluid of our bubbling thoughts
sap-fed sleep
sap sap sap ..."

j'ai imaginé  les sons des mouvements de sève sous l'écorce de l'arbre pour réaliser une composition musicale et poétique.
Une manière de sacraliser l'arbre par la musique...
"Sève
sous son écorce fissurée
circule le fluide de nos pensées bouillonnantes
sommeil nourri de sève
sève sève sève  ..."

Sève

On the musical side, this is basically the summary of a funky nightmare.
Teth Sin's lyrics represent an attempt of applying
electronic poetry to digitally crafted music: its starting point
consisted in extrapolating a few random sentences from an English
translation of the novel "Morel's Invention" by the Argentinian novelist
Adolfo Bioy Casares, subsequently randomizing the words order with an
old, discontinued software for Mac OS9. The resulting untidy text has
been eventually reorganized in sentences and verses, partially
influenced by a rational effort. This ostensible delirium possibly
conceals some hazy remarks on contemporary lifetime and/or today's
so-called "music industry". Of course, multiple interpretations are
allowed and encouraged.

As Teth's process of producing lyrics 'cuts through it all' you might say, 
Myrh highlights that strategy, singing "I'm just gonna walk right through"
coupled with attitudinal lines of "well, well now, ooooo well now!" :D

LYRICS:

walk right through
hey
walk right through
i’m just gonna walk right through
oh well
hey

In this hole of suffering our crushed flowers (to the left)
sound like sleeping deserts made out of steel. (to the right)
Your round, intense phonograph (- let me just walk - of me)
cannot believe in my constant insomnia. (oh well)

We control the resounding island from our blatant spot,
until the ground will open its greedy mouth.

Why does time speak louder than my nerves? (oh well)
An intruder sun kneels on the mud of repetition. (oh)
Pain parties continue as my monologue flows, (oh)
sparkling inside your amazing asylum.

A hard travel we had in our dead dream,
listening to your infernal gong.

Partly insane peers, polluted with lethargy,
chose to be heard in their childish garden.
Recalling a chance of immortality, I slowly noticed
an improper capacity of perceiving the last trembling sunrise. (easy, easy!)

well well well
oh! hey!
mm hmm, well now!
well, well

Is my unjustified air replying already? (well well now)
My second sky is constantly scared.

Strange trampled waters repeat their swaying escape (oh, to the left)
and speak of things happening in my mutilated nightmare. (to the right)
An invisible madness kept vocalizing (oh oh oh well)
and made our distress larger than reality.

iamma just walk right through
well well now!
walk right through
now!
i’m just gonna walk right through
well well now!
ooo well!

Larger Than Reality

Arc Voyager 25 https://soundcloud.com/voyager47 is the master of outer space psytrance. He has a very intriguing and distinctive trance style, which uses planetary tempos and frequencies. He asked me to jam my instruments with his track Quadrant Aspect. So I entered it with parmupill and dan moi. Then Voy made the final mix using my recordings. Here's the result, our third collab track. 
Thank you for listening.

Here are the visuals made by Voy www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfhSI2AVwFw Feel free to check his other wonderful visual works from his YouTube channel as well.

Ark Dambient | Blink Twice | Supernumeraries Mix

Tried playing back in the room through speakers for drum and bass loud into a room. An external sampler allows you to track simultaneously while laying down bass. I think there is something about knowing the track you are playing to is being tracked at the same moment ensures that they always fit together. I used a beat up SP-202 for the beat that I resoldered in a crazy way, the board was cracked and I can't believe it still works. Cant remember where I got the drum sample might have been Max? I sat on this basic track for a long time, then imported phrases to Ableton ,which I have never really used, and hashed out a rough arrangement, Then did a bunch of overdubs which I ended up erasing. I think I enjoyed the more stripped down sound then the crazy sounds I was throwing on top. Its been a wild year. I didn't get much music done, probably my worst output for a year. Its a tough fight finding the time an energy and then keeping your head on what your doing. Sometimes it works to just re-work the whole thing from another angle and cut harshly. Hope all you future people reading this are taking care of this world. We all wanted to be the generation that did it, but the greedy pricks slipped into power, and corruption seems to only work in one direction, rarely are people corrupted into being more compassionate.

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 -
