Mind and machine, confronted.

Humans of the future have created a self-developing artificial consciousness, The Protocol, to help them uncover the remaining mysteries of the universe; The Truth. However, it soon grows beyond their control, and takes life hostage, bringing the human race to the verge of extinction, and sinking their world into chaos and destruction, in order to create a universe of its own; one where it is in control, for eternity.

Now, what's left of The Humans shall venture on a journey to the confines of the universe,
reach The Protocol, and battle the all-knowing entity.
To restore balance.
To find the truth.

The New Year Protocol Series is the first of its kind: a story of growth, redemption and introspection told throughout the years in a self-developing album - the film saga concept, brought to music.

CHAPTER VII

"The Humans and The Protocol sensed a strange occurrence; something, or somebody else watched them war from the shadows of a parallel dimension; one of an infinite set.
But before The Humans could find an answer, The Protocol shielded itself, and unleashed its ultimate weapon: a procedure designed to finish what it started.
Termination.

The procedure was executed.
For a second, the war seemed all but lost.
But suddenly, The Humans saw the light once more.
They were brought back from the void; revived by an entity concealed in between worlds, now away from its eternal neutrality.
God of all entities.
Maker of all that exists.
The Creator.

By granting great power to The Protocol, The Creator had wrongly sealed the fate of The Humans.
Their universe, trapped in a neverending cycle, served as nothing but recurring fuel to The Protocol’s cause.
Breaking the cycle would be the first step.
Upon their revival, something had changed in them. Altered them.
Now, somehow, it seemed within reach."

ALTERED: New Year Protocol 7

It was late at night, I was tired but really alone and upset at the time. I wanted to entertain myself, so I played around on the new guitar I got on my latest birthday, I flushed my boredom down the drain by making this song which I turned out well, I felt happy making this.

CHAPTER VIII

“The Shield was broken.
The Creator intervened in the nick of time, undoing the wreckage.
The Humans had looked death in the eye, and survived. Now, it all made sense.
The Gatekeeper watched as they realized: death was not the end.

Bearing power anew, the Humans, alongside their new ringed ally, grasped their last chance with both hands. The mind would endure; persist against the machine.
The Protocol began to show signs of failure - something it could not explain.
Rage.
Irrational, unburdened rage.

The Protocol performed a frenzied escape, and vanished from The Unknown, halting the Override.
But its whereabouts would not remain a secret for long.
The predator had become the prey."

CHAPTER IX

"A once strategic battle had now turned into an all-out, merciless assault.
Guided by the forces of all realms, The Humans and The Gatekeeper found The Protocol's final hiding place. Other universes.
The battle had now spread beyond their own.
As both sides traded blows, jumping between parallel worlds like lightning strikes in an aching reality, The Creator watched on.
Every facet of existence saw its balance broken; its life force, exhausted.
Yet, in the face of all adversity, they fought on.

Their worth had been proven.
And thus, the ever-neutral Creator took a side for good.

Humans, Gatekeeper, and Creator.
The Great Alliance was born.
And with it, the power to commit to one final act.

They took the war to the one place where war cannot be.

In the eternal night of reckoning, with the force of a billion suns, the three entities opened fire, wielding the untamed power of the greatest procedure of all.
And The Protocol trembled.

There was nowhere else to go."

CHAPTER X
THE END

“The war was over.

The Great Alliance watched as The Protocol shattered into an endless sea of light.

As the light faintly subsided, The Humans looked on at the remains of their once revolutionary creation, from its core emerging their final goal, and the end of their journey.
The light pushed them away, yet once again, they persevered.
Memories of their voyage summoned all around them, as the gates to a new world manifested, and opened.

The Humans bid their home and their allies farewell, and crossed the threshold.
Stars, galaxies, worlds never to be discovered were left behind, fading into the distance.
The eyes that witnessed darkness and death now witnessed life and light, as a newly born universe expanded around them, and away into infinity.
A new beginning, in the Realm Beyond.

With all dimensions returned to undying equilibrium…
At last,
they found The Truth.”

In Memory of TVMBY

Please consider donating to help the family: https://www.gofundme.com/f/in-memory-of-tvmby-aid-his-loved-ones

Tvmby was more than just a member of Cyberwave Collective; he was family. A friend, a brother, and a constant presence from day one, he embodied everything our community was meant to be: reliable, kind, and unwavering in his support for others.

Through his music, his generosity, and his steady presence, Tvmby touched each of us in ways words can't fully capture. His loss leaves a space that can never be filled.

We invite you to honor his memory by helping support the people who meant the most to him, his family in Poland. This loss was sudden, and his loved ones are now facing the heavy burden of funeral and memorial expenses, along with the difficult weeks ahead.

All funds raised will go directly to his family to ease that burden and to give them space and time to grieve.

Thank you for remembering Tvmby with us, and for standing with his family in this time of heartbreak.

CHAPTER III

"The Protocol changed their way of looking at the world - reinventing their knowledge, and their views.
Now, no more than The Protocol held the smallest meaning, and therefore could be safely forgotten, they thought - their past victories, and defeats; the lessons learned now converging into the singularity of the black hole of human memory."

Another World

A journey through the most lovely feelings

You & I

In an attempt to answer the questions that where left by the time gap, you- [REMEMBER THIS: EVERYTHING THAT WE EXPERIENCE HERE IS A CONSTRUCT OF SOCIETY. IT IS UP TO YOU WHICH STREAM YOU WANT TO FLOW WITH].

(Hopefully) The Interlude of the NGADM 2020.

This one came in more unexpected than usual, because I originally had a completely different idea in mind, but I preferred something ominous in the end. However, I really am not 100% confident with that track. Sure, it delivers something and gives in some punch, but it is also quite brittle. I think might start a few alterations of this track; not as a VIP (Variation in Production), but probably as a new concept on the foundation of this concept. That could be fun!

This Track was made for the NGADM 2020

CHAPTER VI

"The Humans bested The Gatekeeper, and found The Protocol’s core.

They watched as a new physical manifestation of the all-knowing entity took over the vastness of The Unknown. The darkness around them was suddenly overwhelmed by devilish light beams rooted in its impossibly perfect cubical form.
They could hear the chants of their predecessors all around them: voices of the past and whispers of the dead resonated in devilish harmony; an orchestra of impending doom. A place where life and death meet, and become one.

But even when surrounded by The Protocol's distressing presence, they chose not to bail."
