An American Fairy Tale - A Story To Tell // Part Two One Song

All Mantra All Beginning - To Primordial Sound

excerpt from the transcript translated into English:

"Om is therefore a mantra, Amen is a mantra. And, if the world is sound, and if this sound—the world itself—is ultimately unreachable for us mortal humans on a rational level, then we need reflections, symbols, parables of the primordial sound. Not least so that we can make ourselves understood, both to ourselves and to others."

//

Primordial sound refers to the original, eternal, and unstruck cosmic vibration underlying all existence. It is often described as timeless, beginningless, and endless—a sacred universal frequency sometimes identified with the sound "Om" or "Aum." This sound is considered the source from which all creation and sounds emerge. In various spiritual traditions, like Hinduism and Taoism, primordial sound represents a foundational vibration of the universe that connects all life and existence beyond the physical realm.

Om represents not only the cosmic sound but also the very process where breath (life force) turns into sound (word), connecting spiritual energy and expression. This is why sacred traditions emphasize chanting Om as both a meditative and creative practice, harmonizing body, breath, and spirit.​

​Thus, Om is the symbolic "location" or moment where breath becomes word, merging the invisible force of life with its audible expression.

Regarding original sound concepts like "Om" or "Amen," these are seen as human attempts to replicate or invoke the primordial sound—the sound from which breath becomes word and creation arises. "Om" especially is regarded in Vedic tradition as this original cosmic vibration encompassing all sounds and existence.

Joachim Ernst Berendt was a visionary German music journalist, author, and producer best known for bridging the worlds of jazz and spiritual sound. His groundbreaking book, The Jazz Book, became an authoritative global reference on jazz, influencing listeners and musicians for generations. However, Berendt reached even wider audiences with his exploration of the metaphysics of sound, especially through his seminal work Nada Brahma: Die Welt ist Klang (The World Is Sound).

Crucially, Nada Brahma was not just a book: Berendt himself narrated and produced powerful audio versions of this material. Originally created as radio broadcasts, these recordings featured his narration interwoven with evocative music and soundscapes, bringing his ideas to life for listeners. Available on cassette (K7), CD, and later streaming and digital download, the audio releases—including "Die Welt ist Klang – Nada Brahma"—last several hours and are celebrated for making his philosophical vision accessible and immersive to a new generation. 

Berendt’s Nada Brahma series investigates the principle that the world is sound, blending spiritual traditions, science, and world music. His work offered listeners—and especially young audiences, thanks to these audio sessions—a profound experience of sound as the origin and essence of reality, demonstrating how attentive listening connects us to universal harmony.

The book "Nada Brahma: Die Welt ist Klang" by Joachim Ernst Berendt was first published in 1983. The original audio version was created as a two-part radio feature, first broadcast by Südwestfunk in Germany on November 28, 1981, reaching a wide audience and later leading to the publication of the book. The audio versions were subsequently released on cassette (K7) in the 1980s and later on CD and digital formats.

I am infinitely grateful that his work reached me on cassette tape in my youth.

Libretto:

Silent remembering
I, close to you
Ever more ignoble and supine
Against the wall of the reddening sky.

Flayed name
Ancient evil transposed in present time
Resolute grid of the user's body
Addicted to nothingness.

Precise form of accident
You from death
The brutal engima
Of your smite
On the slopes with powder of coral
In hideous night.

I, Close To You

Thank you for listening.

Olttaoff – “Usual Error”
A post-rock piece that drifts between calm introspection and quiet unrest.
Delicate layers of guitars repeat like fragments of memory, while restrained rhythms trace the patterns of thought we can’t quite escape.
The title “Usual Error” reflects the small, recurring mistakes we make—the familiar loops of human nature that shape our days.
Rather than seeking resolution, Olttaoff embraces ambiguity itself, turning uncertainty into sound.

A sound for your mobil when your boss send a message

When your boss sends you a message ( phone alert to download )

A track I recorded way back in october 2009! (24 bit 44 khz wav). The words recited by me are about the precarious Climate Change warnings back then (Tipping point). Dark, heavy groove here with tons of vocal FX. Usually upload one track every 2 weeks) so added this 2nd track for recently passing 500 followers:) Thanks to the SC community for all the comments, likes and reposts!

Lyrics: 
Human beings
Don’t understand
They kind of change
Move on, forget

Don’t know
What the world is coming to
Trying to understand
The reason (reasoning)
The inaction
The inability 
To change
For good

Repeat (2009)

'Shouting Quietly' Is similar to when one is disgruntled about something or someone and mutters under one's breath, this is 'Shouting Quietly'.

Shouting Quietly

“The Hypnotist” is a dark, cinematic electronic track that pulls you into a trance between reality and control. Deep, pulsating basslines merge with cold industrial textures and hypnotic rhythms, slowly building an apocalyptic tension.
A sound for the night — for deserted cities and the moment you surrender to the darkness.

Brain Hop

Brain Hop is a musical genre invented by the artist fictionalive on Monday, December 1st, 2025, at 1:24 PM. The genre seeks to bring depth, intellect, and philosophical reflection into (hip-hop) music, emphasizing thoughtful lyricism and cognitive engagement. Brain Hop differentiates itself from mainstream (hip-hop) by prioritizing meaningful content, complex themes, and a cerebral approach to rhythm and rhyme.

The creation of Brain Hop responds to criticisms that contemporary (hip-hop) often lacks intellectual depth. It aims to provide an artistic space where artists explore profound social, political, and existential issues through innovative beats and poetic lyrics. Brain Hop is positioned as part of a movement to elevate (hip-hop) culture into new territories of artistic and cultural significance.

As of its inception, Brain Hop is recognized as an emerging genre within underground and alternative music scenes, promising to attract listeners and creators who value music that stimulates both mind and soul.
