Some sunday morning vintage mood playing with my 1979 GB10 on lead and rhythm. The lovely Jamey Aebersold play-a-long is from '79 too and this is my today's tribute to the guys from back then. 
Thanks also to all friends for listening and patience ☀️

Nine Inch Nails - Ruiner [Black Acid Edit]

It's quite mysterious why some things seem obvious to our understanding. I guess that worms and insects may have a totally different perception of what is obvious. And, as we learn to see, the set of what seems obvious to our minds may also evolve. And we may even be obviously wrong...

== LEARNING TO SEE ==

No, light does not lie.
Light is truth, by definition,
and photons never lie.
But lone photons say nothing at all.
When Hubble tapped the dark sky
it sensed photons one by one,
slowly generating the image
of a deep field immensity.
And some saw galaxies there,
because they had learned to see.
They saw galaxies in all those bright dots on that dark photograph.
That was obvious to them, yet not for me.
And I trust them. 
What else can I do?
I know how often I'm blind to what I'm looking at.

Right now,
I look at you in this quiet evening, 
wondering how much we learned to see.
Is it obvious to you how much I love you?
Is it obvious to you?

Learning To See (based on Anastasiya Ihnatovich piano piece)

Belly Deep

You are made
from the marrow 
of the profundity
of bones
living without the
Certainty of vision
But the promise of 
Eternal life
You are the primordial soup
Of your own making
Eat wisely and reap
from 
the belly deep.

Belly Deep Featuring K.M. Ende

Moral

Spotify

A halo of fire gleefully hangs above the enlightened mind. A fiery circle gleams with the fevered soul as they expunge good-naturedness and willpower into the sky. A blazing ring burns with the bright magic of a million stars echoing in the distant skies. A sweltering disc looms above the hardened listener, the impertinent seeker, and the dutiful waiter, completely shrouded in the blackest veil. A leafy dirt road welcomes it, on whose sides a mixture of green and yellow grass unpacks a serene vista of dense, leafy elms, also boasting wide pallets of green and yellow. The occasional red peaks out shyly. The shadows creep in ever so slowly. Suddenly, there are no sounds. Utter stillness prevails. Inertia and gravity awkwardly implode within themselves. All the beautiful and serene color palettes begin to implode into the blackness of it all as all walls close in, and in, and in.

VūMantra Records presents:
RAIN [Vūdcast_023]

RAIN: With roots in vinyl DJing since the late 90s, growing up performing live under the alias Mental
Distortion and playing as an electronic part of ethno-electronic band Kamennoe More, Rain formed a
signature style of mixing which are characterized by frequent changes, rhythmic variety and a fusion
of musical genres that epitomizes the breadth of techno. From classic 4x4, hard and offbeat
subgenres of techno to industrial, IDM and heavy electronics, all is woven together in his sets in a
narrative that is as intricate as it is captivating. Beyond the artistic realm, Rain&#39;s works exhibit
technical prowess. Using only two sound sources, he mixes 50 and even 60 tracks per hour, skillfully
embellishing them with FXs. Some of his sets also incorporate tempo experimentation, fluctuating
between 80 and 180 BPM. Fasten your seat belts. This is «Мodern apocalyptic techno not for the faint
of heart».

The Smoking Trout continue our tale of the Quest for the Holy Dumpling. This time we're joined by our biggest crew yet! Stonerjazz (Jeff) got us started and somehow the whole process unfolded quite organically from there. TexMex Shaman (Stephen), Jo Richter, Tot (Masa), Jeff and Tea R Sea (Terry) are regularly recurring members of the band. We are happy to welcome Wivresse (Carine) and Neil Harding as new guest contributors. This was tons of fun as always, and a truly global collaboration spanning Japan, France, Germany, UK, and USA.

LYRICS

(Part I - Vocals by Neil Harding / Words by Jo Richter)

Those individuals on wheels had a hard time finding their feed. Hungry they were - for that special dumpling that connects you to anything pagans and believers alike deem holy. Although endowed with holgraphic properties, you can't walk on clouds unless they are numbered. They kept drifting upwards, therefore, slowly upwards until they hit the ceiling called Mars. Mars always happens to be where your head needs something to bump against. That's the nature of war.

(Part II - Words & Vocals by Stonerjazz)

It turned out
there was never any doubt
about
how it was gonna be

ya know it's hard sometimes
to get a grip
drifting in the corridors of time

everybody on the bus
runnin hard and hot
some of us holograms
except for Gus
he's an Alien from outer space
waiting for the rendezvous
at the window of the launch
in Oaxaca down in Mexico
Where the magic mushrooms grow

And his bus
a shuttle from the mother ship
disguised as a 1983 GMC
infinity
He's from another Galaxy
searching for the holy dumpling
just like you and me.

Hope we find that dumpling soon
maybe it's on the moon
traveling at the speed of light
we could get there sometime later on tonight

(Part III - Vocals by Wivresse)
