Climate Change and Environmental Justice Songs

New track that is very long (over 17 minutes). Thought about cutting it in two but decided against it:) Relentless bass from MS2000r, high pitched sounds from the Micro Modular and strange (diminished chords) from Elektron Cycles. Samples/Vox courtesy of Climate scientist Will Steffen.

The earth as a whole

Hallucinate - Green House

Prism

Playing around with the original «Techno Percussion» track that was released years ago but sadly removed from all streaming platforms in September. Mixed with a new track «Sequence 1». This whole «Sequence» series uses a Moog Subharmonicon as it’s main driving force. The funky sequenced bass is a Korg MS 2000r. Mp3 file here. Moves along at 128 bpm. Traktor remix.

Sequence 1 (techno percussion mix)

HOPIUMFORTHEMASSES

Just Stop Oil

Unmastered remix of "Conspiracy of Silence" track. Original version sounds way different. Only sample used was my voice saying "Conspiracy of Silence". 
There are 6 (or 7?) synthesizers in this version, that's including drums/percussion. Enjoy! Mp3 version (320 kb/s).

Conspiracy of Silence (Acid mix)

A song to bring the people together on climate. #peoplesclimate

Lyrics:

Some people worry about money.
Others, they fret about tests.
Some carry the burden of romantic hurting:
Worthwhile stresses I guess, I guess

But in the event…. of an emergency
Don’t cover your head
Or put it between your knees,
Find your strength… in this company.

Cause the seas will rise and the storms will rage,
That’s what you get when you've got climate change.
Yeah we got climate, climate change.

Critics and doubters, sure we’ll have ‘em
But followers more, there will be.
It’s simple attraction
To life satisfaction.
Come on now let's find harmony.

But in the event…. of an emergency
Don’t cover your head
Or put it between your knees,
Find your strength… in this company.

Cause the lies will grow and the tempers enrage,
That’s what you get when you need social change.
Yeah we need social, social change.

It’s a story of courage and love,
Of heroes and progressive change,
That will carry us forward, together, onward.
Together we'll find a better way.

So in the event…. of an emergency
Don’t cover your head
Or put it between your knees,
Find your strength… in this company.
Find your strength… in this company.


In The Event

Sincerely, the P

The Effects of Climate Change on Densely Populated Areas

Longer Ambient Techno version with more of the same vox samples courtesy of Climate Scientist Will Steffen. Same sound sources as in my previous mix of «Earth». This one's almost 16 minutes in length mind so a real sonic trip with a cool sequenced MS2000r bass that starts around the 10 minute mark!

Earth (trippy mix)

Even longer, nearly 17 minutes of sonic landscape to explore. Again with the precarious situation of our climate as the main theme (courtesy of Climate scientist Will Steffen vox snippets). Starts quietly then builds slowly into controlled madness. Many sound sources including the usual culprits i.e. Blofeld, MS2000r, D2, Micro Modular, Electribe 2s, ER-1, etc.

Climate Change #2

Made 3 years ago. Decided to divide the complete 14 min mix into 2 parts, hence the title «System part I». Also made an alternative mix ca 12 minutes (“better mix”). The usual sounds with more vox samples and prophetic words courtesy of Climate Scientist Will Steffen. The driving rhythmic force here is from a Roland D2 groovebox (orange thing).

System part I

Brillman has been an electronic online musician during the last 20 years using many different names: Brillman, Controlfreak, freakcontrol, Red Karma, Atmosphere, Zero Loop, Pan64, Randomcontrol, geometric delay and Superfreak! Brillman mainly creates original sounds from hardware synths but also uses guitar, samplers, vocals or even poetry. He primarily utilizes a 4 to the floor approach. The aesthetics behind the music is about finding a balance between minimalism vs. depth & improvisation vs. programmed.
