Campfire Stories 7 (Secrets Of The Sea) by Francesco Piunti

~ About The Story ~

I need the sea because it teaches me,
I don’t know if I learn music or awareness,
if it’s a single wave or its vast existence,
or only its harsh voice or its shining
suggestion of fishes and ships.
The fact is that until I fall asleep,
in some magnetic way I move in
the university of the waves.
It’s not simply the shells crunched
as if some shivering planet
were giving signs of its gradual death;
no, I reconstruct the day out of a fragment,
the stalactite from a sliver of salt,
and the great god out of a spoonful.
What it taught me before, I keep. It’s air
ceaseless wind, water and sand.
It seems a small thing for a young man,
to have come here to live with his own fire;
nevertheless, the pulse that rose
and fell in its abyss,
the cracking of the blue cold,
the gradual wearing away of the star,
the soft unfolding of the wave
squandering snow with its foam,
the quiet power out there, sure
as a stone shrine in the depths,
replaced my world in which were growing
stubborn sorrow, gathering oblivion,
and my life changed suddenly:
as I became part of its pure movement. 
Pablo Neruda, The Sea

Campfire Stories 7 (Secrets Of The Sea) by Francesco Piunti

Nocturnal Amphibian Symphony Pt1

Live sketches for a Son Of Chi live set in Athens, November 16, 17th 2024.
https://www.instagram.com/p/DBTh9jxNTNy  

A mix of edited Son Of Chi tracks and new works in progress, including upcoming collabs with Kain The Poet, Jim Tetlow, Radboud Mens, Daniel Danieli, Clara Brea & Menhir, Omar Ka, Kaiyumi and more.

Son Of Chi: I always make live sketches. This time for my performance in Athens (scroll down for more info). Not sure if I will stick to them, but they give the right impression of the atmosphere i would like to create. The opening words by Kain The Poet reflect the times we live in and the challenges we are facing. I will end with a piece from “The Fifth World Recordings”.  

According to the Hopi prophecies we are now living in the transition years, moving from the fourth world into the fifth world. As they say: “times of earthquakes, floodings, fires, pandemics and wars”. The Hopi believe that in this period you need to be careful where you stay, who you stay with and what you do. Keep practising the holy rituals. Respect nature, the earth, the universe and be good to your fellowmen and all living creatures.

As the Hopi say the fifth world  “represents a spiritual awakening, an evolution in understanding the interconnectedness of all beings and the universe”. We are in the middle of this transition. All we can do is stick to our rituals.

Or as Hazrat Inayat Khan says: “The further we advance, the more difficult and the more important becomes our part in the symphony of life. The more conscious we are of this responsibility, the more efficient we become in accomplishing our task”.

Edited vocal samples (only for these live sketches, not to be released):

"I will conclude, for thought grows weary, not from the extent of what I have spoken but from the trembling it brings. For the soul that concerns itself in these contemplations trembles and is appalled."

Campfire Stories 37 (Colours Of Time) by Astral Industries by Ario

~ About The Story ~

If you take myth and folklore, and these things that speak in symbols, they can be interpreted in so many ways that although the actual image is clear enough, the interpretation is infinitely blurred, a sort of enormous rainbow of every possible colour you could imagine.
