Quite mesmerizing, Léo. Beautiful electro space.

i just really liked singing 'so many stars' all of a sudden😂

first morning waking up in a spaceship far from home....
fear gives way to wonder


'so this is the first morning
and what was 'here'
is now afar

this is the golden dawn
black icebox...
white furnace......
and......
... ..  . so....................          ............ ............... . . . . 
......... . . . .man......y....................s.....t.....ar......s........ . .    .. . . . .. .........'

so many stars [WIP]

Emptiness

The Tabula Smaragdina (stressed tábula smarágdina, Latin for "emerald tablet") is a text traditionally attributed to Hermes Trismegistos, which forms the philosophical basis of Hermeticism and is considered the foundational text of alchemy.

The Tabula is one of the most famous texts of alchemical and hermetic literature. The twelve or so dark, allegorical sentences reflect the idea of a interrelation between the microcosm and the macrocosm. That which is below is like that which is above, and that which is above is like that which is below, an eternal miracle of the One.

The oldest extant version of the text is found in the appendix to a 6th century Arabic manuscript. Translated into Latin in the 12th century, the Tabula was commented on and received by many alchemists in the Middle Ages and increasingly in the Renaissance period. Even after the emergence of modern natural sciences, its fascination, at least for occultists and esotericists, remained unbroken until the present day.

Die Tabula Smaragdina (betont tábula smarágdina, lateinisch für „smaragdene Tafel“) ist ein traditionell dem Hermes Trismegistos zugeschriebener Text, der die philosophische Basis der Hermetik bildet und als Grundlagentext der Alchemie gilt.

Die Tabula ist einer der berühmtesten Texte alchemistischer und hermetischer Literatur. In den rund zwölf dunklen, allegorischen Sätzen spiegelt sich die Vorstellung eines Zusammenhangs von Mikrokosmos und Makrokosmos. Das was unten ist, ist wie das, was oben ist, und das was oben ist, ist wie das was unten ist, ein ewig dauerndes Wunder des Einen.

Die älteste erhaltene Textversion findet sich im Anhang zu einem arabischen Manuskript des 6. Jahrhunderts. Im 12. Jahrhundert ins Lateinische übersetzt, wurde die Tabula im Mittelalter und verstärkt im Zeitalter der Renaissance von vielen Alchemisten kommentiert und rezipiert. Auch nach Entstehung der modernen Naturwissenschaften blieb ihre Faszination zumindest auf Okkultisten und Esoteriker bis in die Gegenwart ungebrochen.

The unholy magnetic union

This is a song that started off as something else entirely different. Originally, it was a noodle that I recorded using a delay pedal. I gave it to Chris Maness, who put a killer bass lines on in. so, I went back and completely reimagined it as an actual song. I thought it sounded kinda swampy, so I thought of the most musical thing I could think of about a swamp. I remember the swarms of gnats that would form different patterns when I'd sing different vibrations at them. Hence, Dance of the Gnats.

I appreciate that you listened carefully in this track.
The heavenly bodies move, and the star leaves the daybreak to the sun. Did the stars show a splendid guidepost to you?

The farewell is now announced,
nature mourns,
the summer is too much aged,
its clock is now ticking.

The becoming is past,
the parting sets in,
it shows itself in sublimity
as autumnal beautiful glow.

A silver-colored night robe
wraps mountain and valley,
the world - it shines in retirement,
the sun shines pale.

The dew pearls from stalk and leaf,
the sky shows its blue
and every drop reflects dully,
and brightens the gray of farewell.

A heavy course is carried out
in silent harmony,
It is life's farewell song
it will never go out.

Der Abschied ist nun angesagt,
es trauert die Natur,
der Sommer ist zu sehr betagt,
es läuft jetzt seine Uhr.

Das Werden ist Vergangenheit,
es setzt das Scheiden ein,
es zeigt sich in Erhabenheit
als herbstlich schöner Schein.

Ein silberfarbnes Nachtgewand
ummantelt Berg und Tal,
die Welt – sie glänzt im Ruhestand,
die Sonne leuchtet fahl.

Es perlt der Tau von Halm und Blatt,
der Himmel zeigt sein Blau
und jeder Tropfen spiegelt matt,
verschönt des Abschieds Grau.

Vollzogen wird ein schwerer Gang
in stiller Harmonie,
es ist des Lebens Abgesang,
erlöschen wird es nie.

This piece is about the immense forces surrounding us in nature..... Starting slow and building up gradually, with background strings and double piano part from 2:00. What is your opinion about it?

Enjoy.

Oh, and I like Snickers. The last few years, I've been dressing as an old man. It works.
