Elektropolis X or 'Gmoahof Yidaki Echtnativ' is a Yidaki/Didjeridu based electronic lazy pseudo-Goa/Psi-Trance work utilising the native instrument of my genetically connected aboriginal people of Australia. This particular Yidaki on this recording was made by Charlie 'Hook' McMahon and an original Didgeridoo in that it was fashioned mainly by nature and properly termite eaten...

Apocatastasis

I produce a European country album. It is very political and inspired by pollution and the fire of Notre Dame. The working title of the album: "The Bells of Notre Dame!" - Working Labels welcome.

Bells of NotreDame Demo

  THERE IS A TIME       
 Why did I not see the world I lived upon,        
Through the mind’s eye of what had been ?       
Within the memories of the future,          
All that does surround us is now seen.      

There is a time we must set ourselves free,       
There is a time we must let visions be,          
There is a time, there is a time,          
There is a time, there is a time.      

The sequence of events that flow around us,         
May either be connected or apart,       
Rippling in and out of Cosmic Unity,      
If all is ONE then we must form a part.            

There is a time we must set ourselves free,        
There is a time we must let visions be,           
There is a time, there is a time,           
There is a time, there is a time.   

This interweaving web throughout the Universe,        
 With elements that surely interact,    
We cannot dare ignore sublime relationships,     
Their energy creates creates and touches ALL      
There is a time we must set ourselves free,        
There is a time we must let visions be,           
There is a time, there is a time,           
There is a time, there is a time.
                                                       
This is a song I composed in 1996 and presented regularly for a few years in and around Christchurch in my performances. There is also a video of this song shot at CATV studios in Christchurch and braodcast on the local CTV station which I will at some later date convert from VHS do digital and plaster up on YouTube 
It's lyrical content is inspired by the works of Frank Herbert and the Dune series, particularly the concept of what he terms 'prescience' or in parapsychological terminology 'pre-cognition' (the psychical sense of knowing absolutely what is happening in the immediate future by the accessing of our 'sixth sense'). 

Technical Notes

I simply took the sequenced backing from my MT-100 sequencer sound module and recorded it onto digital audio tape, then added a couple of vocal tracks, there are supposed to be three part echoing choruses answering at the end 'There Is A Time', maybe I'll put those in on the next version...

History

I gave it freely and was included on the Rainbow Trust CD produced to raise money for the Children's Hospital in Christchurch in 1999.
This version I think was remastered by Arnie Van Bussel of Nightshift Studios when put into the compilation of South Island artists represented on the album...  

Enjoy,
