Tišēešrā

I, I don't need a sign
To protest what you're doing
To protest what you're doing
Is that alright? I'm not your kind
Cause' I, I don't follow blind
The faith in what you're leading
The faith in what you're leading
It has died, crucified, oh...
-------------------------------------------------------
Enter nothingness, throw it all away
Face of emptiness, need some regime change
So complacent with all the thoughts you keep
In too deep with this self indulging way
-------------------------------------------------------
Hide from all your lies
It's bullshit what you're saying
It's bullshit what you're saying
in my eyes you're not right
Mirror your disguise, breaking glass today
All along this time, you've been in my way
-------------------------------------------------------
Enter nothingness, throw it all away
Face of emptiness, need some regime change
So complacent with all the thoughts you keep
In too deep with this self indulging way

PROTEST

The even-numbered Broken Telephone game jams on Itch.IO take the art competition from the previous odd-numbered B.T. game jam as the prompt for inspiring the music composing, as text it was called "at the tavern"

Kaleidoscopic Revelry Riff submission for Broken Telephone 4 Jam hosted by cjee246 for Itch.IO

Okay this one goes way back because the original instrumental track is only the -sixth- in the line up (VI) released in March 2023.
I assert that fact that the original is so tiny, it doesn't really violate the originality restrictions of the game jam.  Which might be a stretch but here goes.

There are easter eggs in it from Dissatisfaction 4 (XLIX) for those wondering at some odd shifts like Myxolidian scales up and down.

Lyrics: 

Imagine a boot so big somehow
That we have to start licking it now
In case it might exist some day
A fear that just won't go away  

I started life on a diet
Of solitude and quiet
But rosiness did not prepare
For the jungle out there

And once I had thoroughly got their gist
I saw through the plot of my nemesis
To churn out carceral urbanists

Your agency is proportional to the number of people
You can handle being mad at you at the same time
But a contrarian mindset sometimes
Cannot exactly turn on a dime  

My supposed social betters
Took on the workforce fetters
Because they gamed Goodhart's law to the letter
While I’m left to dream of something better  

I was wanting to have my cake and eat it
But the cost made me feel so conceited  
I’m trapped, still living under their thumb
While my heart keeps beating to my own drum  

The consequences gradually got meaner
I suspected the grass is greener
seeing the glass ceiling's pretence
drove the lure of the other side of the fence

One thing that I have found
Comfort is the devil's playground
But colocated with silent grief
Escapism gave me some relief

But Rose-colored lenses
Still don't conceal systemic defenses  

In time regret ebbs and flows
A cycle of longing that grows
Energy flows where one’s attention goes  

It’s not necessarily a race
Rose-colored glasses can’t erase
The truth that I have learned to face
Dissatisfaction expands to the available space
  
I muse on vales, zephyr pure
Far from mire, no rancor’s lure
Ascendance blooms, I endure

Dissatisfaction Expands To The Available Space (Extended Lyrical Version)

game jam's prompt on Itch was "Stepping on a Lego"

VELOUR SERPENT KISS

Original composition….Alejandro Gonzalez M.

Pálida Y Fría

An emotion
contains mana
we're casting our spells
in every moment
and our hearts shit
calls forth magic
we cast our spells
without knowing


raise awareness
to the life in side
when fate comes for her cruel touch
we will tap the heart of magic
win fates game
a-a-avoid her cruel touch
when our hearts cry
all of magic cries
it takes control

don't you know
what this life is for
don't you know
that there's something more
don't you know
what yer crying for
don't you know
that yer something more

in our heart lies
all of magic
we gather for spells
without the notion
in our heart lies
all creation
we ask our selves
if its bull shit
i can see the
heart of magic
when fate fucks up on her cruel touch
we can tap the heart of magic
win fates game
avoid her cruel touch
when our hearts cry
all of magic cries
it takes control

don't you know
what this life is for
don't you know
that there's something more
don't you know
what yer crying for
don't you know
that yer something more

An emotion
contains mana
we're casting our spells
in every moment
with our heart light
we make magic
we cast our spells
with desire

don't you know
what this life is for
don't you know
that there's something more
don't you know
what this life is for
don't you know
that there's something more
don't you know
what yer crying for
don't you know
that yer something more

embrace connection
to the life in side
when fate comes for her cruel touch
we will tap the heart of magic
win fates game
a-a-avoid her cruel touch
when our hearts shine
all of magic shines

Instrumental LoFi Study Music - 🌸 [Morning Blossom] Chill - Sleep - Study - Work

A therapeutic journey into a mix of jazz, classical, and a blend of types of electronica.  And a wry, gradual observation that promotion tends to only go as far as you push it.  At least I make my fellow musicians laugh a little.
