Sleeping Alone

This song captures the healing summer vibes of 2021 with a driving pop beat that is sure to keep your head bopping to the groove the entire time. Listen in headphones and you’ll hear the subtle elements of percussive ASMR.

Ride That High

A call to get to know one another again. To show up in ways that are meaningful. To reach out to the people that seem to be fading away and remember the things that bring us to life. A call to find hope when cynicism is too widely accepted as the norm.

今日も夜が明ける
時に身を合わせる
今日も日が落ちる
人と気を合わせる

また　夜が明ける
ただ　身を合わせる
そして　日が落ちる
また　気を合わせる

誰かのためにまた
たたらを踏んだ（踏んだ）
たたらを踏んだ（また踏んだ）　 

Um 辞める辞めない曲がり角
たたらを踏んだ（また踏んだ）
また　たたらを踏んだ（また踏んだ）

たわ群れ
Stepping on the coals

自分だけのためにまた
たたらを踏んだ（また踏んだ）
また　たたらを踏んだ（また踏んだ）　

たわ群れ たわ群れ
Stepping on the coals

今日も夜が明ける（日が昇る）
時に身を合わせる
またも、たたらを踏む
またも、たたらを踏む

今日も日が落ちる（夜が来る）
人と気を合わせる
またも、たたらを踏む
またも、たたらを踏む
（Give me a place）
To hide

++ HERE BE DRAGONS OST ++ 

Here Be Dragons is a multiplayer installation created by Jérôme Cortie, for which I had the pleasure to work on the soundtrack and sound designs. 

---
Set during the collapse of the Bronze Age, the players are invited to explore and interact with antique civilisations of the Mediterranean basin, guided by an astro-monastic consortium - five divinities who can change the plot of history. In the style of a 'Choose Your Own Adventure', the game features many narrative paths depending on the players actions, taking them through quirky situations and multiple planes of reality that draw parallels with the absurdity of our own times.

The music changes with the physical installation, as spectators can interfere with the game by silencing each astromonk individually. Each divinity was then associated with a set of instruments, themes and textures that span over the entire soundtrack, mixing antique instruments samples of the region with synthetic noises and processes. The OST version is a specific arrangement of in-game music for a better listening experience IRL.

---
Farewell, traveller !
May the astromonks grant you good fortune...

Pythagore's Banquet (Ugarit)

🌿 Music for your yoga practice. Notes as prayers, rhythms as heartbeats—for stillness and flow. 

Let Love Flow (Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu)

A forgotten god wakes in a quiet city and learns how to live as human. Each track is a fragment of memory, wrath, hunger, tenderness, peace - told through cinematic bass, dark pop, and post-orchestral soundscapes. Bells, breath, and silence replace thunder, as divinity becomes presence. A journey from myth to mercy, from storm to stillness.

Antifa is my cousin.  I heard some people were looking for her.  Since I like to be helpful when I can, she was in Alexandria last time I talked to her, three weeks ago.  I think she mentioned going to Zurich in the near future.

Is it 1984 already?!?!

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  I have tried a few times to get back into it but SoundCloud doesn't trust me.  Same phone number, same email addresses, and they still claim that they can't verify my identity.  I created that account about three years ago as a substitute to my regular account which SoundCloud temporarily closed.  They closed it as part of some upgrade procedure in their system, the result of a bug that affected many accounts, about two years ago.  Since SC did not inform its users I didn't know if that was permanent or not, so I created that other account which I can't access.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

This one here (957729823) is for regular folks.

I love you, both.

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.

I then went ahead and butchered his work with a borrowed helmet.
... Sorry Joe. =(

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.

Until The End
