My Kingdom Come

Time has its end
You know this can’t go on
Don’t ask me again
It’s not enough to be strong

I’ve only played a role
Of a clown in a circus ring
The audience has been blind
They’re all I got to cling

My will be done
My kingdom come
Time has its end
And it’s just begun

Let go of my mind
Let my spirit fly
Time has its end
And it screams good-bye

I’ve played my part
And you’ve played yours
Let’s exit the stage 
Thru the open doors

I now see it all
Just the way it’s meant to be
Don’t ask me again
It’s not enough to be free

Let go of my mind
Let my spirit fly
Time has its end
And it screams good-bye

My Kingdom Come

This movement is constantly shifting and discovering itself as it unfolds, so I didn’t assign a particular key center to this movement; it is like experiencing the world for the first time with fresh senses. It ends inconclusively, leading to the next movement.

Quelenis is a musical journey through a moment of choice. At the heart of the piece lies a crossroads: one path is endless and mechanical, silent yet inevitable, embodying reason and structure. The other is a human, shadowed path—unpredictable, raw, and filled with emotion and desire.

True to Olttaoff’s signature exploration of duality in sound, Quelenis weaves IDM’s intricate beats along the path of the infinite, while the improvisational spirit of Jazz illuminates the dark, human side. The intertwining of these sonic worlds creates a labyrinth that challenges the listener, pulling them between logic and instinct, certainty and chaos.

In a world of diverging paths, which will you choose? Quelenis offers an immersive experience of choice and the depths of sound itself.

The Foolish Dreamer

"The Cure" was written by Dorothy K Haynes in 1969. She was an accomplished, Scottish writer of horror stories, often included in compendiums. I read this recently in a collection re-printed by the British Library. Yes, it's another dark offering. The story is tragic, horrifying but, ultimately, hopeful; well worth a read. 

I used a Fender Jazz Bass, through a modern amp, to join the lead synth.

Wildflower
lead Me down to where You sleep
where I awoke so fearlessly
awake from nightmares
warned of the abduction

Angel Girl,
the candle's end is near
cut Me now
sever Me from this breeze

hear Me, Baby
hear Me, Baby
I bear all My blood to You
so afraid I found hunger these few days we have known
abandon Me

Wildflower,
tell Me now, if You please
how You inject so painlessly
You stand by the window
miles from My affections

Angel Girl,
from the highways
across the world
sever Me from this breeze

hear Me, Baby
hear Me, Baby
I bear all My blood to You
You know You keep Me alive with that something I fear
abandon Me

oh no, Baby
oh no, Baby
You know how You make Me feel
You’ve been standing there holding a gun in Your hand
don’t use it …

… please

the PERSON, the SOUND : Since 1985, Philadelphia-born Michael has composed and released hundreds of audio recordings, and published dozens of [erotic] poems.

His 'sonic-sojourn' began suddenly when he was just a teen -- feet splashing rhythmically through puddles leftover by a seaside rainstorm. Having just parted ways with the then-love-of-his-life, Michael composed his first ballad [and first song] ever -- "Tina." He rushed to his beach-side home to record his visceral 'awakening' on a tiny micro-cassette recorder, and vowed -- from that day on -- to create art for the rest of his life.

He began zealously amassing used music equipment, and had built a modest home recording studio by age seventeen, all the while crafting simple pop, ambient, and experimental works that HE had wanted to listen to -- that HE had wanted to hear, affectionately emulating the works of his then-idols, Duran Duran and Brian Eno.

Now, decades later, he has relocated to a small village outside Atlanta, Georgia, and continues to voraciously attend to his dream as a young, heartbroken boy -- to create and release music that he, himself, wants to hear.

Although no longer sequestered to pop and ambient musics, Michael's signature sound has merged the two, having integrated the R&B, hiphop, and psychedelia he has grown to love as a older gent -- having absorbed the edgy rhythms and dreamy soul of the southern United States (Atlanta and Miami).

Michael still puts forth ample amounts af ambient musics, but his recent 'sound' hovers elsewhere -- somewhere amidst the genres of vaportrap, spacerock, and trip-hop.
