Jiddu Krishnamurti- Don't Compare Yourself With Anybody

The history of the universe, as if played by an international community orchestra. Recorded at Andy's Music in Chicago, IL, April 2014.

History of the Universe

120 years ago, a spirit called Jiddu Krishnamurti appeared in the material world to speak some gentle truths....
Here is my 'wob wob" style tribute to him.

"We all want to be told what to do.
Marx tells you what to do,
Christ tells you what to do,
the psychologists tell you what to do,
the politicians tell you what to do.
We're always looking for leaders - better political leader than the present one... and the better political leader is always not good enough but next one will be better... and so we keep this idea. 
Please let's be clear on this point.
 There is no leader as far as I am concerned.
You can, create the speaker into a leader, which will be an utter folly, but the speaker is not a leader. We are together co-operating to discover, the cause of all this... misery of man.
You have had thousand leaders. They've all failed."

Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895-1986)

Second Moon (2016)

I couldn't help it and i can't deny how good it sounds. this is just an edit to play on my dj sets, and i played it once and everybody wanted it right away. Honestly i was gonna wait to see if Solange or her team or whoever works for her wouldve ask me to do an offical remix so if they still want to, i could make it sound better than that version but ohhhhh, what the hell....
anyways i highly recommend you that new Solange album "A Seat At The Table".

SOLANGE - CRANES IN THE SKY (KAYTRANADA DJ EDIT)

Smooth but transposed to the whole tone scale as favored by schoenberg

Beat I made today, wanted to add something to it; so I scoured around for while and found this talk from Jiddu Krishnamurti, pretty good stuff, and a main clip from the speech is in the song. 
Hope you like it. 

Krishnamurti's War Drum On Conciousness

I used to see all my recordings as blueprints for something greater that would be re-made at a later time. I now realize that my priorities, as they often do, have changed, and I can barely remember the chords to most of my tracks, so here's a little something I did in 2011, exactly as it were.
