Now this is art. Brilliant Plamen, just brilliant.

Maaaaan GJ, captivating song...brilliant sounds/poetic lyrics 🌟

You have an interesting voice, and your music is very artful

Of your songs this has the most Zappa energy. Original music. 😁🎼

You can change your mind
over and over
but you will estrange your mind
if you give it all to your lover.

No-one’s ever strayed
from who they are
not by more than an inch.

We’re stuck with who we are—
and when it feels like a swing
we’re the hinge.

How can I be better?
How can you believe I can be
or can be made
to be better?

And if you care to wait patiently,
might as well 
drink straight from the sea...

Yeah, you might as well
sip on the ocean
while you wait for me to change.

You might as well
slip me a potion
to try to keep me engaged.

Sip on the ocean
while you wait for me to change

and erase all laws of motion
like pencil from a page.

(Raise it up
yeah, drink it down)

We all play the part
and all of us badly (madly)
but when all is said and done
we devour the play gladly.

No-one’s ever been 
close to who they are
not by less than a mile.

We tell the tale of who we are
just to get to be
the I for a little while...

How can you be better?
Just what part of you can be 
unmade to be made better?

If you care to wait patiently
might as well 
sip on the ocean
while we wait for us to change.

Might as well
sing our devotion
in the same breath as our rage.

Soak up the ocean
while we wait for a change.

Might as well mix our poisons,
get cozy in our cage.

Go sip on the ocean
while you wait to be changed.
No contortion
can turn back the page.

Sip on the Ocean

What can the movement, rhythm and dance of a duck look like in music. They have so much energy and beauty. This is what I tried to imitate in this music, where I mainly supplemented the tools of electronic music with synthesizers and drumming.

For all the overnight security and maintenance staff at Bishop's University that tolerated our unmerited presence in their practice rooms during the mid 80s.   And for the exceedingly considerate piano sales staff at Eaton's Department Store (Montreal) in the latter 80's that provided impromptu lessons and access to instruments for those of us who couldn't afford them.

Pour tout le personnel de sécurité et d'entretien de nuit de l'Université Bishop's qui a toléré notre présence imméritée dans leurs salles de pratique au milieu des années 80.  Et pour le personnel extrêmement prévenant des vendeurs de pianos du grand magasin Eaton (Montréal) dans les années 80, qui offrait des cours impromptus et un accès aux instruments à ceux d'entre nous qui n'en avaient pas les moyens.

The spirit of my drum "asked me" to heal the pain of betrayal in all those who wished to attune to it, and so I used my breath and intention while drumming between 4 and 7 beats per second, the rhythm most conducive for going into shamanic trance.

Andreas (APi_ZZ) found that the resonance of my drumming was of the frequency 109 Hz, close to the 108 Hz which is the sound tuning used to heal the sacral chakra, the Svadhishthana. So he fine tuned the drumming frequencies to that exact 108 Hz. 

The sacral chakra governs the reproductive region and when it has been knocked out of balance, it can block our fertility in all aspects of our lives, such as our joy and enthusiasm that gives rise to our creativity. And so I added in the Adi Shakti mantra, the prayer to the Great Mother, who is associated with the Svadhishthana. The Adi Shakti mantra tunes us into Her and into Her mantle of protective, generating energy that gently dissolves our fear blocks. 

Andreas then put the whole thing to music, using flute and Tibetan sound bowls attuned to the frequency of 432 Hz. He also added a bowl drone sound (again at 432 Hz), augmented by bells chiming in deeply associated frequencies of  (again) 108 Hz, 162 Hz, and 243 Hz and a second bowl at 364.5 Hz. These frequencies relate to the sacral, solar, heart and throat chakras.

The whole track has been carefully developed to enrich (self) healing ideas and offers a deep listening experience as well. 

The Cover Art, by APi_ZZ, incorporates the Svadhishthana yantra, the visual, symbolic interpretation of the Svadhishthana mantra.

Hello my Friends :)

This is my new Track "Now and Always". It all started with the inspiration from the piece "Our World" by Audiomachine but it really evolved into a different direction, which isn't a bad thing after all 🙂.

Personally i especially like the last section, which gives me exactly the nostalgic feeling i wanted to create :-)

I hope you like it !

Have a wonderful day.

Marcel 

- Now and always bound,
Time's fleeting whispers, profound,
Love's eternal sound.-
