Greetings to my SC friends. This write-up goes deep into the realms of the bizarre. I’ll be serving up a banquet of probable realities and parallel universes, slow roasted in a ‘law of attraction’ au jus. And we’ll also have another wolf sighting.

First, let’s reintroduce our wolf friends (said to be from a Cherokee tale, and described in greater detail in a liner note a few years back). The one sneaking its way through the crevasses of my brain is the wolf of fear; the one chilling peacefully just behind my heart is the wolf of love. And as previously mentioned… the one I feed the most, grows the largest and has the most influence in my life. That idea is very helpful as we switch from metaphorical thinking to quantum navigation. 

Now for the bizarre part.

There is a theory out there that every possible moment/choice in every possible life (past and future) has already happened, and it’s all housed as snapshots of stored data on a quantum/cosmic state, cloud storage device somewhere. 

But what does that mean to me as a flesh bag?

It means that every time I am about to make a choice in my life, every possible option lies before me. The choice I make then narrows those possibilities down to the reality I experience. But all those other choices continue to play out without my awareness, because in another probability, I took those paths and lived those lives. I am essentially a rapidly expanding resident of parallel universes; but my consciousness is only aware of this one… and only of this very moment in time.

Going further down that rabbit hole, I start playing with ideas like hopping time-lines. For example… if someone told 20 year old Justin that at 55 I would be a happily married, sober, vegetarian musician… I would have stopped playing with that person. But here I am living that life, so maybe that idea is worth visiting. 

But for now, let’s focus on this reality… and how we can bend it to our will. 

If you make your choices out of love (and you aren’t constantly stuffing emotional pork chops into the wolf of fear), your awareness gradually shifts to one of love. The more choices you make out of love, the deeper into that probability you go. Keep doing that long enough, and the other probability becomes nothing more than a distant memory… if it doesn’t simply disappear from your experience altogether.

The same goes for the other side. If I only focus on fearful things, I’m cementing that experience for myself. My choices are made in fear; my experiences confirm that fear; and I ultimately end up living a very fear-driven existence. 

Now if we expand that concept to include the collective consciousness; how powerful our will is, and how we impact each other’s realities… we begin to see how utopian/dystopian variations are born. 

But if we have control over our direct path (through the choices we make, and where we focus our awareness), that suggests we have the power to purposefully choose timelines. Think about that… every possibility existing all at once, and we may literally get to decide which version we want to experience. 

What if we can migrate (or even hop) our awareness to more ideal timelines when we grow tired of the one we’re currently visiting? What if we are in control? What if we are that powerful? I admit, I’m having experiences in my life that make me question if this idea isn’t so far fetched after all.

While you chew on that, I hope you enjoy ‘Putting The Disco In Discombobulated’. :)

DL on SC :)

Putting The Disco In Discombobulated

The current music scene is great because of the places where music is made and the experiments that are repeated by each personality. For individual creators, it is much more valuable to have an environment where they can come into contact with a large number of personalities than to be spread.

This is my Repost cloud and a place for some of my musical experiments.

It's a pleasure to support your work. Here are so many nice and creative people, who produce awesome sounds. When I repost here a track, I really like the song. I wish all musicians good luck and success! Thank you all!

(Jan 9th, 2025) Just a quick message to let you know I'm not going to be active here for a while. If you need to reach me, you can always message me at GrevusAnjl@mac.com.

Welcome to my sonic playground. I don't consider myself a skilled musician. I just sculpt sounds to quiet my mind... often with surprising and humorous results. Thank you for stopping by. I hope you enjoyed your visit. :)

I'm an avant-garde musician. I like to experiment with software, instruments, and everyday objects when creating on a song.

Music is my latest artistic passion; aside from being deeply invested in making music, I create digital art, drawings, paintings, mixed-media pieces, photography, photomanipulations, poetry, and short stories. All of which can be found on my DeviantArt: Leehon.

Thank you for reading and listening.

I create seamless fusions of just about everything. All visceral, atmospheric and psychedelic with hidden depths upon closer inspection. The flow is also important. It exists on a continuum with micro-variations and subtle evolutions along the way.
The music can range from low down heavy darkness to softer and more positive, higher-vibrational new age. Yet even at it’s most crushing and industrial never succumbing to nihilism and instead feeling warm and inviting.
Very often humorous (in the form of deliberate cinematic pastiches), freaky and surreal. Inspired by dystopian sci-fi. Retro-futuristic.
I often wear my influences on my sleeve like Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream but at my core I’m still self-referential with my sound. It operates at my own personal frequency.

Thanks for visiting. This is a retro eclectic music mix with looming influences from among others Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Lou Reed & Jon Lord. Mostly I write about the human condition.

I am always looking for a guitar player that wants to collaborate. Would be fun to find a real drummer also.

A Gat is a cat in Catalan - it all makes sense if you’re me. The (s) stands for many collaborators.

I encourage everybody on SC to listen more and be less transactional.

after 14 years i am quitting soundcloud. 
Big thanks to everybody  kind enough to listen or comment to my music.

Anybody else prevented from accessing SC servers via VPN?  All of them are blocked for me.  This is the first time it happens to me in six or seven years of almost daily SoundCloud activity.  I use a VPN in SC because when I don't I get horrible delays that show up in many different ways.  The only explanation I have found is that somehow their security/identification system has flagged my IP address and introduced all kinds of speed bumps.  It makes the experience very unpleasant, irritating.

Why was Jonathan Bellot's account
[https://soundcloud.com/jonathanbellot] deleted?
...

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.

Sorry Joe. =(

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.
