Le mélange entre instruments acoustiques et sons synthétiques est parfaitement dosé et du plus bel effet ! Superbe

In commemoration of the 20th of december, 1989, the day when the United States government invaded Panamá and ousted the country's military dictator, Manuel Antonio Noriega, the Government of Panamá recently decreed this date as a National Day of Mourning, to be commemorated yearly.

Panamá's citizens would do well not to regard this event in isolation.  Preceding the U.S. invasion, Panamá went through over 21 years of military dictatorship.  The dictatorship in turn was the result of years of questionable leadership and politics and a self-serving ruling elite and political class.

The way things are going today, almost 33 years later, it would seem these lessons were collectively not learned to the extent that they probably should have.
"Aquellos que no pueden recordar el pasado están condenados a repetirlo."
(Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.) 
-George Santayana

The song uses part of a melody by Avelino Muñoz and drags it across the entire length of the song.  The melody is part of a piece of Baile Típico, one of the main genres of Panamanian music, on which in turn the main theme of RPC, one of the country's regime-sanctioned TV stations during late 70's and 80's -- the heart of the dictatorship era -- was based.  The theme was thusly ever-present during those years that I was growing up and to me thusly almost synonymous with that dark yet wondrous time.

„Arctica“ (28.03.2023 )

Arctica ein längst verschollener Kontinent aus der frühen Erdgeschichte.

Die Menschheit ist nur ein Wimpernschlag auf diesem Planeten. 
Wer weiß ob die Spuren unseres Daseins verschollen sein werden wie dieser alte Kontinent „ARCTICA“

Der Name Arctica wurde 1996 von John J. W. Rogers vorgeschlagen.
Er wählte den Namen Arctica, weil sich zu einer wesentlich späteren Zeit der Arktische Ozean durch diesen hypothetischen Kontinent hindurch öffnete.

ARCTICA als erdgeschichtlicher Kontinent entstand vor etwas 2,5 Milliarden Jahren.
Arctica könnte damit aus dem nochtetwas älteren Kenorland durch Akkretion des Wyoming-Kratons und den zwei sibirschen Kratonen und den Rae- und Nain-Komplexen in Grönland entstanden sein.
Zitat / Quelle: Wikipedia

Diese zauberhafte Mystik dieses längst vergangene Kontinents hat mich dieser Komposition inspiriert. Reist mit mir musikalisch in die Vergangenheit zu dem Kontinent Arctica.

"Arctica" (03/28/2023 )

Arctica a long-lost continent from early Earth's history.

Humanity is just a blink of an eye on this planet.
Who knows if the traces of our existence will be lost like this old continent "ARCTICA"

The name Arctica was suggested by John J.W. Rogers in 1996.
He chose the name Arctica because at a much later time the Arctic Ocean opened through this hypothetical continent.

ARCTICA as a geological continent arose about 2.5 billion years ago.
Arctica could thus have formed from the somewhat older Kenorland by accretion of the Wyoming craton and the two Siberian cratons and the Rae and Nain complexes in Greenland.

The magical mysticism of this bygone continent inspired this composition. Travel with me musically into the past to the continent Arctica.


Thank you for your valued attention.

To the railway station crowd, mom
Feel the decay from the years
somehow
Steel a glance to see your son’s dour eyes
Final call
To leave it all ashore
To the railway station crowd, mom
To the railway station crowd, mom

To the Railway Station Crowd Mom

I think this is the cheesiest, poppiest thing I’ve ever written and surprisingly the lyrics were jotted down a few months ago after I watched the Netflix documentary “MH370 - the plane that disappeared” which is pretty heavy

nightmare part 1

This is a song that was written by the very talented Artur (Surfers Like Us), who is a surf rock master, and delivered to us in the form of a guitar track. Josh (Entheogenic Psychonaught) enjoyed adding the psychedelic, yet foundational four string fretless bass. Ken (K2 and the Three and K2 and the Four) boosted the energy level of the song when he blew our minds with his driving drums. JJ (J.J. Terrell) added the wild, dynamic organ you hear throughout. Tez (Llanpsych) brought lightning down from the sky in the solo over the third section. And last, but certainly not least, Stephen (TexMex Shaman) laid down the mind-bending guitar solos over the first two sections. He also produced and mixed it, with a little help from Ken. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as our Eclectic Collective enjoyed making it.
