Elephants From Dumbo

A madness from the picture breaks
A fevered gaze my spirit takes
A stranger's face from shadow grown
To build a world I've never known

Your lips, a seal on silent lore
Your eyes, a darkness I adore
They pour a light that burns my soul
Swallows me up, to make me whole

I reach to hold you, touch the air
A fleeting ghost beyond compare
A distant song on harps unseen
A glimpse of what I might have been

Your lips, a seal on silent lore
Your eyes, a darkness I adore
They pour a light that burns my soul
Swallows me up, to make me whole

This holy wound, this sacred ache
From which my new self starts to wake
I drink a poison from your mouth
A silent solace, from the south
It stills the world, it stills the pain...
Again... 
And once again...

Your lips, a seal on silent lore
Your eyes, a darkness I adore
They pour a light that burns my soul
Swallows me up, to make me whole

I'm changing now, until I'm you
Lost in your light, forever new
No name to speak, no path to trace
Just lost inside your endless space...

Your lips, a seal on silent lore
Your eyes, a darkness I adore
They pour a light that burns my soul
Swallows me up, to make me whole

Visionary Shamanics is happy to present another epic psychedelically psydubtastic shamanic psybass tribaly multicultural psybient ethnic trip in : 

TEMPLE OF DUB 

The softest sounds are all around 
As the undead lives of plants and trees begin 
Within this hallowed place of reverence now 
Lost and locked deep within a forest 
A monument built to remember now found 
Strength of gods and goddesses within 
The beauty of the forest nature sounds 
This palace of vines, greener than emerald 
We are spirits of the temple, our home 
Living in perpetual limbo by a fateful task 
As guardians of the Forest Temple we only ask 
That this temple will be forgotten forever more 
Into the true heart of this dreamlike garden theme 
To forever only be a temple in your dreams

Released April 1, 2019

Temple Of Dub

Unite

Sounds Of Snow - Unite (SubRoot Remix)

Is this Totem?! Wait yes, its still Totem. Comin' atcha with a knuckleball from left field. Not the usual tribal midtempo you might be used to. This track is the first of a series of songs that are an experiment in voice, motif, analog and the unknown. 

Lyrics:
A billion lives I've lived
A million times I've watched the sunset in your eyes
So what more must I give?
To set us free, in a new story and to let us be
So now I sing

I sat an watched atop the earth as it was born
I was there when you were made
I am older than the sun, the sky, the night
I am the moonlight on your face

You can see it in your mind, you can see it in the eyes of a newborn child.
You can feel it in the pulse of the earth, you can see it in the eagle as she flies on high
Can you feel it in the roll of the thunder?
Can you feel it in the dead of night?
If you can't, you may never know.

Said, Hey ya ya ya
The sun must shine as it does on you
Said Hey ya ya ya
Were never the same no matter what we do

Chorus:
We don't bow to the people who holdin' out
We don't bend to those that bleed
It comes down to the moment of life and death
Because your eating what you feed
If you know what you must do, you gotta stand up for what you believe
Go and read the writing on the wall
Because your reaping what you weave

Have you thought about the future generations delicate balancing of life
We cannot forsake the land that will feed them pushing out of mind out of sight
To give life to the Mother of the Earth is to give light to a blind eye
For the land I will stand and defend, I am praying unto the most High.
x2

Chorus

We gotta rise up and we gotta dig deep
We gotta feel the ground that underneath our feet c'mon

Said, hey the veil be thinning everyday so we can't give up.

Drumspyder weaves a web of percussive rhythm, melody, and line. Framedrums, tambourines, and  low whistles mingle with bass beats and ethereal atmospheres, bringing the Celtic and British Islands traditional music into vital contemporary expression.

Scott Sterling has always followed the path of rhythm. Over the course of a long journey through diverse forms of drumming and dance music: avant-garde circus, slinky bellydance troupes, and acclaimed bass-music productions, the one constant has been the beat of the drum. 

Over the past several years he has specialised in the realm of framedrums and tambourines. Influenced by modern framedrum masters such as Glen Velez and David Kuckhermann, but also inspired by the rhythms of the Irish bodhran, he follows a distinctive path through the world of contemporary percussion: fusing his experience with cross-cultural framedrum techniques and Arabic rhythms with a new-found love of Celtic dance music. 

To this rhythmic foundation he adds traditional melodies (played on low whistles and various keyboards) drawn from the folk music of Ireland, Scotland, and England , as well as the rich repertoire of Medieval and Renaissance music from the British Isles. 

Out of the alchemy of rhythm, melody, and his long experience in dance music production, he has forged a unique approach to Celtic and Medieval fusion, where elements of trance, bass-heavy electronica, and ethereal atmospheres mingle into an intoxicating brew. His overall ambition is to connect traditional rhythms and melodies with the contemporary dancefloor.
