Random Of Bliss

lnfinite spirit open the way for the divine design of my life to manifest
Let the genius within me now be released let me see clearly the perfect plan
l am healthy, l am wealthy, l am effective 
My live evolves 
My purpose unfolds

l love dancing constellations 
88 sways to slay
Celestial choir swingin 
Wingin cross the milky way

l fly so high 
Up in the sky
The gods are winkin'
The stars are twinklin'
The universe gifts me a kiss
Let it go - let it go - let it go
Let it go - let it go - let it go 
Ride a random of bliss 
Let it go

l howl my way thru lupus 
Fox trot vulpecula
Do the horse thru the pass of pegasus 
Pump it up in antlia

l fly so high 
Up in the sky
The gods are winkin'
The stars are twinklin'
The universe gifts me a kiss
Let it go - let it go - let it go
Let it go - let it go - let it go 
Ride a random of bliss 
Let it go

Let it go - let it go - let it go

l fly so high 
Up in the sky
The gods are winkin' 
The stars are twinklin'
The universe gifts me a kiss
Let it go 
Let it go

Random Of Bliss - with W. E. Bartolotta & Boon Hidefumi Suzuki

During a recent trip to Italy I bought a thumb piano in Naples. It was a vibrant yellow which only realised later mirrored the Sorrento lemons you see everywhere from shops, restaurants to decorating plates, mugs, ornaments, and clothes.

Sorrento lemons are like lemons on steroids being about three times larger than the ones that get sliced for your G&T or gastropub fish and chips. One restaurant in Pompeii gave them to our group them sliced with salt, pepper and olive oil. An amazing explosion of flavour.

This track was inspired by the warm sound of the thumb piano, the colour of Sorrento lemons, the intense midday heat and the sparkle of sunlight on the Bay of Naples. The sound of cicadas at the end of the track was recorded whilst visiting the historic city of Pompeii.

Indian Liver Macrodose

I wasn't certain what to title this track. Then as I was recording it, a stink bug crawled onto my computer (who is the being of which I said "Om Namah Shivaya" to at the end of the recording). So I thought I'd title it for this insect. While they do stink, "stink bug" doesn't seem to be the nicest name for this beetle. So I titled it "Geometric Master of Walking Meditation", since to me they look like some sort of abstract geometric African art, and they walk in a slow manner that appears reminiscent of walking meditation. I wasn't certain if I would definitely title it this, but then it flew up and landed on a photo of Thich Nhat Hanh doing a walking meditation in a lotus flower garden, which made me feel certain that I should indeed stick with this title.

Instruments:
tenor guitar, flutes, tin whistle, tingsha bell, triangle
