Screaming out softly

You build yourself up while the world breaks you down 
Feeling untouchable till the walls are crashing down 
All the strength you gather be gone in a second 
Everything forgotten can come back and fucking wreck it

One day you're standing tall
The next day you’re going to fall 
Everything’s going, going away
Everything's going, going away 

One day you’re standing tall
The next you’re on the floor
Contemplating how the fuck you can take anymore
Your resolve will be tested by the limits of your soul
You dissolve every method it begins to take its toll

So many white walls that need a big hole from my fist 
So much of this fighting is over all of this shit 
I conquer conquer conquer but the fight still rages on 
I wonder wonder wonder if I can go on at all

But my mind is there to save me and to gather up my will 
My mind is there to save me and repeat I fucking will 
The torment will keep rising but the dog in me bites back 
The universe is winning until I am fighting back 
My heart is beating loudly but my chest gathers the air
The start was so profound but the enemies still there
My energy is binding and its blinding to the hurt
I will not be defeated this was needed for me to learn 
This was needed for me to learn
This was needed for me to learn

Fall

First, there was amazing music made by STONERJAZZ. Then, I composed a poem and integrated it, surprising myself with having written the first 'love' poem in a long time - and to Snow White of all fairy-tale people! To highlight it all, TEXMEX SHAMAN made the music ring out even more beautifully. Eventually I created some artwork, inspired (by some reason I don't grasp myself at the moment) by those expensive vinyl imports from Japan. It might have to do with how much I value Jeff's and Stephen's guitar playing and creativity. It's a thrill ride to collab with those two experimental musicologists ;-)

"Started as a kind of Raga--Jo created some lovely handmade words- and Stephen and his beautiful Duesenberg Guitar made some amazing droning magic to complete the vision--"

"Always enjoy the opportunity to collaborate with Jeff and Jo. They are wizards with words and sorcerers with sound. Was happy to contribute a bit to this one."

Lyrics / copyright jo richter:

still wearing his headphones
in the mall's thermal flow
uranium bones
intercourse afterglow

she walks down the aisle
as light as a rainbow
sunlight on the Nile
et in arcadia ego

a bodice, a comb, eris' pear
black, red, white as snow
forces align, forces shear
a million mirrors in a row

she walks down the aisle
as light as a rainbow
sunlight on the Nile
et in arcadia ego

et in arcadia ego - with stonerjazz and texmex shaman

"2016.
Meldonium,
Never heard of it.

Melbourne,
First round defeat,
Love-two.
32,
Maria is done."

Just one step further and Amenhotep will save me, or will he yet 
The guardians are grounded, and sleep in the silence of the potion to forget
we all forget 
All the hounds howling in the distance, a dread quartet
Unlock the espagnolette 

Moving windward through the suburbs
Wild flight is my name, the interdictal bane
My weapons here are useless, in this consequence of rumours
As a conjurers legerdemain

With wild crowds throwing missiles, to bring down the government
Tendentious armies take positions in our now encumbered state
Sending messages to morons, 
In the endless dead debate

Amenhotep Will Save Me

Hide In The Dark Chapter II * Instrumental

So Alive

my sweet bluejay
don't go quiet
it may be dark out there
but you're safe inside

the sky's not gone
just turning in
you don't have to see
what's already near

my love, love, love (x4)

bluejay's in my heart
holding still
I know you're tired
but we're just beginning

my love, love, love (x4)

you're not alone
I'll always hold you

my love, love, love (x4)

bluejay

Note: In light of the recent AI breakthroughs, we feel it's important to clarify that we've been working with voice modulation since the mid-1990s – originally inspired by David Bowie's album Outside. Our approach predates AI-driven tools and is rooted in treating the voice as an instrument, shaped and sculpted through earlier technologies.

We fully understand that questioning authenticity may not be the intention – but it's worth remembering that all electronic music is, by nature, mediated and transformed. Even Nietzsche pointed out how modern tools shape us: inserting paper into a typewriter already creates a distance that handwriting does not. Perhaps birdsong is the only truly authentic sound. 🐦
