great mystical magical dark soundscape! love all the audio cuts and samples, excellent droning instrumental piece!!!

super dark and trippy, excellent beat and cembalo (Harpischord)

Such a deep and expansive sound, incredibly psychedelic and space rock!  Love the sitar like sounds and background noises, everything melds together so effectively!

A truly great film director would come looking for this!

ACID BREATHING

Begin now to breathe,
Handmade by yourself,
Reality lives,
Time from your Breath.

Begin now to live,
Thoughtmade by your will,
Dimension denies,
What messages mean.

Yourself is the will,
Direct to a cell,
Universe lives,
God Knows Your Breath,

Begin now to breathe - Begin now to live,
Handmade by yourself - Thoughtmade by your will,
Reality lives time from your breath,
Dimension denies what messages mean.

My friend David Z (a.k.a. @blackmarketbrains) posted this incredibly awesome drum beat as an open collab. It was made using the korg Volca Drum which we both are fans of. I had this on deck to work with for months. When I finally plugged it into the DAW I was immediately inspired and this came together right away. Best played at high volume, hope you'll enjoy!

Check out the original 'BioSpawner' open collab beat here:

This is from a Funk mashup I did a few years ago lampooning the Trump administration and the general idiocy surrounding Covid. Now it's just more fun as an instrumental.

Lyrics:

Long ago in a lonely home I was born n raised in a lovely home.
I remember the times we had, looking back at the shit we had.
Long ago in a lucky home, I had it all so very long ago.
I Remember the lucky fix, all the sheets and a lucky sack.

There was a time, we used to laugh about all thats right.

Low down long ago, i remember weeeee had a story of cold.
Not so long ago. Hohoho

Long ago in a city home I remember how we used to fight.
                       ---Was a time when we used our fun.

Long ago yeah long ago in an icy home.

A Multimedia Puzzle-Story Of An Immortal Being's Struggle To Define And Exert Their Will Upon A Wholly Deterministic And Ambivalent Multiverse, And The Strange Cult Who Loves Them.

--------

Greetings to you: readers, beaders, seekers, wanderers, wonderers, outsiders, rebels, fantasy gamers, freaks, mythologists, philosophers, appreciators, creators, perpetuators of beauty, coveters of mysterious objects, collectors of counter culture, the curious, the questioners, the unusual, the unique, the star children, the light workers, shadow integrators, diviners, alchemists, hermits, monks and popes, the saviors and prophets, the builders and destroyers of worlds, the old ones, the young ones, the rollers of boulders, the sun orbiters, the morning star dewdrops and twinkle toed dreamers of dreams, you mystic shining beacons, you crossers and denizens of the void, reality shapers, universe makers and underworld freaks.

"A prominent feature of avant-garde music is to break through various rules and regulations of traditional culture, in order to transcend established creative principles and appreciation habits. Avant-garde music pursues novelty in musical form and style, insisting that art is above everything else; thus, it creates a transcendental and mysterious sound world. Hint, metaphor, symbol, association, imagery, synesthesia and perception are widely used in avant-garde music techniques to excavate the mystery of human heart and the flow of consciousness, so that many seemingly unrelated but essentially very important events interweave into multi-level structures and forms."
