This track weaves glitch-laden textures into a flow that echoes the spirit of Terry Riley. It’s not about chasing the cutting edge—quite the opposite. I made this piece to break the mechanical monotony that often defines electronic music from within. Minimalism, for all its repetition, holds a revolutionary edge.

Think of this track as a condensed documentary—a long-form narrative trimmed down and sculpted with delicate arpeggios. Its backbone draws from hip-hop and the Bristol sound, with clear fingerprints of the ‘90s: dark, psychedelic, downtempo, electronic. That era was foundational for me—a time when sharp, bold sounds collided like they did in the ‘70s. I wanted to bring that spirit back.

In this barren landscape, I’m crafting sound like DJ Krush—pushing beats into places that feel abandoned or overlooked. Instrumental music has the power to tell stories without words, and for me, that’s its deepest beauty. Each sound carries a piece of my message—etched into the silence between the notes.

stepping off the edge with desire
he was the flyer on perception's broken wings
sixteen times he bounced and landed on the ledge
with the shack at the back where the 
old man sat on some  wooden crates
and spoke of gates in dreams
and trips and traps and strategies and 
cautionary tales about inorganic beings
and how to catch a rabbit or lion or a squirrel
with some sticks and strings

sticks 'n' strings

scalar fields pt 9: sticks' n' strings- with stonerjazz

she believes in the beauty
of pebbles and in the logic
of living sustainably -
amulet wheel, amnesic

as seasons and perfumes drift by -
a bearer of shields and magic,
her carpet is worn - she will die
an unapologetic aesthetic

¡¡ Warning: very old track with very LO-FI sound !!

Five verses over improvised chords, which are divided into 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 parts; passion, going back, and at the end... what happened here?

Cinco versos sobre acordes improvisados, que partí en 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 y 6 tiempos; pasión, vuelta atrás y, al final... ¿qué ha pasado aquí?

Lyrics/Letra:

Perdido... 
Perdido...
Perdido... 
Perdido...

Perdido en la oscuridad de tu nombre.
Perdido en la sombra de tu regazo.
Perdido... 
Perdido...

Perdido en el miedo de tu deseo.
Perdido en la espesa espuma estéril
que me lleva y no te alcanza... ay, perdido estoy.

Perdido (Miedo de tu deseo)
