No Way I'm Giving Up - original song by Tashka Urban
Remix Collabortitian with Global Sound School - March 2022

Lyrics:
INTRO:
Sometimes I feel (Sometimes I feel),
Sometimes I feel (Sometimes I feel),
Sometimes I feel (Sometimes I feel).

VERSE:
I don’t wanna be,
anybody else but who I am here right now.
When will we see,
all depends on what you do, 
how you make it through, 
are you true to yourself & what comes naturally,
get out of your own way & choose yourself today.

CHORUS:
There ain’t no way that I’m giving up.
Nobody,
tells me to stop till I’ve had enough.
I spend my weekend, 
doing my own thing.
Soon the whole world’s gonna know it,
everybody gon' hear me sing.

VERSE:
C'mon, listen.
Extraterrestrial,
communicatin' rhymes I been croppin' the fields,
not fooled by the looks, 
I stay, go when I feels.
It's not possible I got optionals to get home you stay chasing the mill,
astro travellin' you searching up for a deal,
tryna' cop out,
we here keepin' it real.
While the earth still stands the mind will sense a kill,
what gave you life from the start, natural law is my skill.

CHORUS:
There ain’t no way that I’m giving up.
Nobody, tells me to stop till I’ve had enough.
I spend my weekend, doing my own thing,
soon the whole world’s gonna know it
Everybody gonna hear me sing.

There ain’t no way that I’m giving up.
Nobody, tells me to stop till I’ve had enough.
I spend my weekend, doing my own thing,
soon the whole world’s gonna know it
Everybody gonna hear me sing.

OUTRO:
Feel it in your bones uh,
feel it in your soul uh,
feel it in your guts
let's get it,
let's run it up, run it up, run it up.

Homage to the doing word

Hitting you hard with a double header this week on the podcast to get you ready for the loaded weekend. Today we feature one of our very own Billy Seal live from the playa at Carl Cox's Playground. Here's what he had to say about this set:

 The 15th annual Opulent Temple white party was hosted by Carl Cox and crew during the debut of the incredible new stage for Playground 2017 - Arrival. Featuring an arena with flying saucer flamethrowers, lasers, lights and an incredible JBL sound system. 

I was sure to thank Carl for his awe inspiring gift before he handed over the controls to this stand-out peak experience I won't soon forget.  

There were lasers beams, fire poofs and the familiar orange glow of faces at all the drops. I felt right at home.

The set features tunes by Drezo, Andruss, NuKid and others. Full of tension, futuristic robot voices and references to outer space. 

Recorded live from Black Rock City on Wednesday night at Burning Man 2017. 
(Special thank you to Leyl Master Black for making that happen!) 

Enjoy!

The Maya deities included Kukulkán (also known by the K'iche' name Gukumatz and the Aztec name Quetzalcoatl) and Tepeu.

The two were referred to as the Creators, the Forefathers or the Makers. According to the story, the two deities decided to preserve their legacy by creating an Earth-bound species looking like them. The first attempt was man made from mud, but Tepeu and Kukulkán found that the mud crumbled. The two summoned the other gods, and together they decided to make man from wood. 

However, since these men had no soul and soon lost loyalty to the creators, the gods destroyed them by rain. Finally, man was constructed from maize, the Mayans staple and sacred food. The deity Itzamna is credited as being the creator of the calendar along with creating writing.

Endless Evergreen is Griffin Paisley’s debut album. It’s a thoughtful collection of eight dance music tracks sprinkled with color and doused in light. Griffin’s exploration of modular synthesis shines over each track, revealing unique timbral qualities throughout. With a hint of vocals and ASMR-esque texture, Endless Evergreen is a one of a kind contemporary electronic listening experience

My deep passion for music began when I first discovered the power of sound and vibration as a tool that can change lives through healing and transforming its listeners. Being capable of leading people to heightened, multi-dimensional experiences, bringing people together, inspiring creativity, reflection and beyond - this is where my unfeigned love for sound lies.

My desire is to create a musical journey for you to lose yourself in and enjoy everything it evokes within you. x
