I am not a fan of my singing voice and I am also not a fan of my lyrics, so I’m making myself step outside my comfort zone and improvising a melody and making up the lyrics as I go.  The only one I retook (after failing to get through the first verse 5 times) was the last verse with the fadeout (which sounds like Basil Rathbone for some reason).

The past few weeks I've been dealing with a bit of residual psychosis. It's absolutely chill, I dealt with MONTHS of residual psychosis when I was BIG psychotic two years ago so a few weeks is easy-peasy lemon squeezy. Now, if you picture psychosis as a fog of symptoms that clouds your perception of reality, residual psychosis is like that fog gradually clearing. 

How do I get it to clear? Grounding techniques! Mindfulness and meditation have assisted me in staying grounded in my present reality whenever I hear the voices start to kick up again. They've gone back to being harmonious hallucinations, at the start of residual psychosis they were mostly apologizing for letting things get out of hand, which is sweet. Like my non-concious self apologizing to my conscious self. BUT before I get wrapped up in all the good feelings I have to remind myself to stay grounded! And the BEST way to do that is with regulated breathing!!

Breathe with me~

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from SAD PROM. "Slave To The Algorithm" comes off the new EP, SP001. For this release, the artist is taking Techno back to its Detroit roots. Raw, analog machine music to move bodies and awaken minds from their smartphone-induced coma. SP001 sounds like your parents’ landline ringing at 3am. Your Tamagotchi crying to be fed while you’re coming up in the middle of the party. You won’t find this record on streaming platforms or social media, the algorithm doesn’t know it exists. The revolution starts here.

Out November 8th. Pick it up at: https://sadprom.bandcamp.com/album/sp001
