Back in 2024 Dan C E Kresi and myself started working on a few ideas. Being the master of slicing and splicing that he is, he took some guitar parts I recorded and twisted them into something new....
Something called... OKTOPIA

These are the first tracks to be finished with more to come later.

Our styles may be very different, but when galaxies collide, sometimes magic happens! :)

OKTOPIA Presents: Deep Dive

I took an old demo I recorded and tinkered with it in some apps to see what I could come up with. I dare say this is a bit of silly fun, lol.

Lyrics: Mag ik dan bij jou (cover Claudia de Breij)

Als de oorlog komt, En als ik dan moet schuilen, Mag ik dan bij jou?
Als er een clubje komt, Waar ik niet bij wil horen,Mag ik dan bij jou?
Als er een regel komt, Waar ik niet aan voldoen kan, Mag ik dan bij jou? En als ik iets moet zijn, Wat ik nooit geweest ben Mag ik dan bij jou?

(chorus)  Mag ik dan bij jou schuilen, Als het nergens anders kan? En als ik moet huilen, Droog jij m'n tranen dan? Want als ik bij jou mag, Mag jij altijd bij mij Kom wanneer je wilt,Ik hou een kamer voor je vrij
Als het onweer komt, En als ik dan bang ben, Mag ik dan bij jou? Als de avond valt, En 't is mij te donker, Mag ik dan bij jou? ls de lente komt, En als ik dan verliefd ben, Mag ik dan bij jou? Als de liefde komt, En ik weet het zeker, Mag ik dan bij jou?
(chorus)  Mag ik dan bij jou schuilen, Als het nergens anders kan? En als ik moet huilen, Droog jij m'n tranen dan? Want als ik bij jou mag, Mag jij altijd bij mij Kom wanneer je wilt,Ik hou een kamer voor je vrij
 
Als het einde komt, En als ik dan bang ben, Mag ik dan bij jou? Als het einde komt, En als ik dan alleen ben, Mag ik dan bij jou?

Translation: When the war comes, And if I have to hide; Can I come to you then? If there is a club, That I don't want to belong to, Can I come to you then? If there is a rule, Which I cannot comply with, Can I come to you then?And if I have to be something, Which I've never been, Can I come to you then? Can I take shelter with you then? If it can't be done anywhere else? And if I have to cry; Will you dry my tears then? 
Chorus;
Because if I can be with you, You can always be with me  Come whenever you want, I'll save a room for you, When the storm comesAnd when I'm scared; Can I come to you then?
When night falls, And it's too dark for me, Can I come to you then? When spring comes, And when I'm in love, Can I come to you then? When love comes, And I'm sure, Can I come to you then? Can I take shelter with you then? If it can't be done anywhere else?And if I have to cry Will you dry my tears then?
Chorus;  Because if I can be with you,…L.
When the end comes, And when I'm scared, Can I come to you then? When the end comes
And when I'm alone Can I come to you then?

Mag ik dan bij jou (cover Claudia De Breij)

I just want to say I'm beyond honored to be the subject of such adoration from my musical family here. Carl really knows how to make a brother feel special, and he did it for me this time, with the help of some of our EC extended family. Here's Carl's write up. 
"Mr Bringer-er Together-er is Josh. You may also know him as artist Entheogenic Psychnought, or the spine of Eclectic Collective. We all came across Josh in our own lucky ways, but he really sets a high bar for spreading constructive musical love and encouragement on SoundCloud. This song started out as a comment. I (Carl/TBD) went to call Josh Mr Bringer-er Together-er and my phone auto corrected it. the next morning K2 swooped in and said what I wanted so I used that as a trigger for the song.
So, I had a rough arrangement. We then invited a few artists, except Josh, to paint it for him. Scratch Kelly, aka Sarah, beamed through some amazing vocals. Not long behind Joe Stroffolino painted in some brilliant backing vox. Then Scotty (One Man Verity Show) chimed in with some amazing guitar, trippy backing vocals, and the super artwork you get to enjoy. Mark brushed in a triangle and some vox, and then Ken added those trusty drums. Tez then strutted in and added some super lead guitar, and not far behind him was Stephen with some epic rhythm guitar that showed the way for the song from that point of view showing a much better space to all the other instruments than the original demo guitar. That was a lovely lesson on less is more...

The song was now ready to give to the main man for him to paint, and he chose his trusty bass to put some strawberries on his own musical cake.

I now stared at 37 tracks and went... Hmmm Stephen, Help! Stephen mixed and mastered it to its crisp current form, and it was a very difficult mix. He basically had to merge 3 projects to one and really aced the challenging mix and master like the true shaman he is. We hope you enjoy the song that brought us together again. May it give us more togetherness like Josh so wonderfully demonstrates everyday

You da brother man Josh 🤘🏽"

Wo Oh Oh Oh
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ow
Old times
When we were alive

Old time energy 
It's comin' over me, me
Just wanna feel you 
In my veins

Babe we are long gone
Eh Ee Yeah

In the grave, grave

Eh Ee Yeah
Ahn Wo Wo Wo
Oh Oh Oh Oh
Wo Oh How

Well, well, well
We are once alive
Heart to heart

Once alive 
In that old time energy
That keeps me movin' on
Even though we are 
Lost and gone, Yeah
Lost and gone Babe, Oo

Yeah Ee Yeah
Can you hear me callin'
Do you hear me call
Call your name, a name

And the fire burns me
In, in the grave
In the ground
It's only dust

7am on a spring morning at Blessington Lakes in County Wicklow and all was still, suddenly i heard the most amazing sound that broke the silence, 2 amazing white swans flew out of the mist with such gracefulness and power it took my breath away, i wrote this song to try and capture the beauty and style of these amazing birds.
this is my fist ever instrumental . I hope you like it.

This track began as a MIDI track I had made using Logic. The individual stem tracks were then sent to the great Dr. Zwakkus, who then added his own tracks, remixed, remastered, and often times even performed many of these tracks on real instruments to render this musical idea into a true mark of Zwakkonian brilliance.  It is to be noted that any real instruments being played (guitar, bass, vocals and drums I believe) were played by Dr. Zwakkus himself.  The end result of this made the track tower high above the original idea that I sent him, and I am extremely grateful to have had this opportunity to collab with who I consider to be, probably the most original and innovative sounding artist there is, or at least I've ever heard.  Please do check out his music if you haven't, for I guarantee it is unlike anything you've ever heard in your life.

This Jim Carey clip seeded this song today. I think he has a nice angle to give on depression. Jim in general I find very inspiring. For me he spells out very clearly and eloquently that no matter affluence we all go though the same brain battles during this life experience.

An ever honest song by artist $uper Acid $unshine about depression reminded me of the Carey clip so kudos to our friend across the pond for that steer 🔆 $A$ is well worth a permanant rabbit hole for your ears.

I do deal with small amounts of depression but fortunately it's rare for me. Some days though the mind just cannot level those feelings and you just got to let them pass.

Gabor Mate would be one person that really helped me change my life and in my opinion has some of the finest views on pro active positive mindset and I'd highly recommend listening to him. He has incredible societal views relevant to the human condition of the individual and the people who influence you growing up and how you can respond to thise influences. He also has some intriguing views on the state of the medical world and offers some very nice shift we could make in the future. Instead of masking problems with artificial antetodes that maybe we can prevent a lot of them with a life of a clearer more content mindset. I believe he feels our experience and frame of thinking can manifest physical problems in the body however conventional medicine rarley considers this as part of the diagnosis and cure. I will note that it appears to be long term lifestyle choices that could bear the fruits of Gabor's thinking and as ever take everyone with a pinch or three of this 🧂 and make up your own mind 🫶🏽 Hope you're not depressed and if you are peace and love to you 🫂

"Seek the reality of everything, don't get seduced by appearances of anything. Don't be afraid of your pain and don't run away from it because that running away is what leads to addictions and illnesses. It's all worth it. It's worth going through all that suffering because this is what life is. It's just worth being alive." Dr Gabor Maté


Lyrics
Deep-Rest,
Says Jim of depressed
Fuck you body!
Shelve the avatar!
Let's reset
You need this for future clear wist
Feel some fear for reference bliss
Feel the pain
Know your pleasure reframed

Deep-rest
Refill your chest
Quieten the mind
Brain reboots to find your kind self

Super duper happy
Wait, super duper sad
This mind seems looped now front to back
What's this feeling?
When will it go?
Maybe I can sing it and pretend I'll never know

Deep-rest
Refill your chest
Quieten the mind
Brain reboots to find your kind to self

You need this for future clear wist
Feel some fear for reference bliss
Feel the pain
Know your pleasure reframed

Deep-rest
Fuck you body we said
Deep-rest
Fuck you mind we said
Deep-rest
Fuck you body we said
Deep-rest
