Mystic (Shamanic Drumming Journey)

Trap to penthouse w/ Spacier (prod.xpwave)

Again a song against the blues - with the lunatics that are currently leading the world for me the only way to keep mental health.

This is our moonshot, a mission of the soul
Break the chains of apathy, and make us whole
Reaching out for empathy, a giant leap we’ll take
In a world where kindness reigns, for goodness sake

where did you go

You got dreams in a paper bag Wrote your name on a subway tag You hum songs to the city steam But no one’s buying what you mean
Talk is loud, but time is thin You say you’re out — but you’re still in A crown made of bottle caps A throne built on broken scraps

How you gonna get made?
How you gonna get made?
How you gonna get made?
How you gonna get made?

You talk divine but you choke on doubt sold my soul just to crawl back out You want it all but you’re cracked within You ain’t sure what shape you’re in
You build walls, and you break the floor Youre chasing peace through a pound store door You got style but where’s the flame? You wear a mask, but what’s your name?

How you gonna get made?
How you gonna get made?
How you gonna get made?
How you gonna get made?


How You Gonna Get Made?

Chill indie rock song from The Velvet Echo

Saved My Life

I had been working on this piece when our beloved cat, Tobi, suddenly passed away. A few days before, he had started to fade, but we didn't realize it would happen so quickly in the end.

I was playing my guitar, searching for harmonic notes while he sat in front of me. It made me sad to see that he was in his twilight days. In response, I played my arpeggio in reverse, so it sounded like falling rain.

By the time I finished working on the guitar piece, Tobi had sadly already passed away. I wanted to find a Buddhist chant for animals to help him cross to the other shore. I discovered that "Om Mani Padme Hum," meaning "Jewel in the Lotus," could be used to assist both animals and humans in planting the seeds of practice for their next lifetime. This beautiful chant also helps with the process of grief after losing loved ones, guiding them as they cross to the other shore. "Om Mani Padme Hum" is widely recognized as a Tibetan Buddhist mantra, often associated with Avalokiteśvara, the Bodhisattva of compassion. 

The ending felt like a way to send him off and into the light.

Each of the six syllables carries a unique quality and meaning.
