Name: Connected (subby mix) by Brillman
Duration: 14 min 9 s
Description: Been experimenting with longer mixes lately (as you may have noticed), also have a tendency to recycle various motives/patterns again and again:) The main star in this mix is the Moog Subharmonicon bass line. The weird solo (comes in 2x) was played live with a midi controller and is an original patch made on a E-MU Planet Earth module. Rather like this one:) Headphones recommended!

"Empire"

My sound is appealing to me, but I can't structure the sounds in a good order. Like ocean waves. If it was at least like the waves of a lake or river, I'd be able to structure my music as tasteful waves of sound.

I want to play among the waves of sound(329)

This song celebrates the beauty of humanity.

This is the original recording I made in 1927. A new recording of the song here: https://soundcloud.com/jonny-figment-530184385/death-howl-a-song-about-humans, and a dub version here: https://soundcloud.com/jonny-figment-530184385/ive-decided-to-live-forever-death-howl-dub

-----------------------------

Everybody’s got to find their way
Find their way across The Great Divide
And they gotta do it by theirselves
No, there won’t be anybody walking by their side

I am nervous ‘cos I don’t believe
No one there for me to cling to
No comfort when the time comes
No hand around my shoulder 
No promised land

So you go to the cave on the mountainside
Sit in a circle with your family 'round
As you patiently wait for the spirit to pass
You look up and notice the stars

Your breathing gets slower as time runs down
In the forest, the creatures are still
There is no map for where you’re bound
But the path is well-worn

I was begging for the end
Push that rock up the mountain again
Don’t wrench my soul away
I mourn for the world, it’s such a horrible place

They gather ‘round the fallen man
Hold hands and sing a prayer
Hearing the sound, the medic looks out
And he thinks to himself, "What a wonderful world"

The family lays their bodies on down
Shaking uncontrollably
There is nothing you can say or do
In the scenes that follow the death howl

Well, just a few short moments ago
He was this tough little kid
Now he looks at you
With tears in his eyes
Saying “Please hold my hand
And tell me there, there”

Death Howl (a song about humans) - 1927 edition

Soft Departure is a piece born from the need to preserve the inner fire in an environment where relational and professional dynamics tend to wear it down. It explores the gesture of quiet withdrawal, not dramatic, not reactive, simply the choice to stop investing where energy no longer flows. Built around a warm, enveloping bass played on my Crave, the track acts as a guiding thread through a soundscape that can be unstable at times. It evokes the act of staying present without being pulled in. A form of inner persistence in a noisy world. This is a work of conscious disengagement, a way of saying: “I’m still here, but I’m no longer playing the game.”  Soft Departure is also a tribute to those who choose to leave without noise, to step away without war, and to keep alive what doesn’t need to shout.

made with piano, metronomes, zoom h1, and NCH
