no fucking Ai were used in this track.

method: Sending back and forth, reworking and creating in collaboration with re-evolution café orchestra who composed all the music and played all the instruments. To enjoy more, listen here:  https://soundcloud.com/re-evolution_cafe. Apart from the poem, I added field recordings and partook in the editing.
narration: I live in a region that is home to some space industry – more importantly however, this region is also home to marvellous nature. This poem is nourished by many concepts and theories, most notably the colonial ideology of space as the „new frontier“ as well as Whiteheads „fallacy of misplaced concreteness“ and Nagel‘s thoughts expressed in „What is it like to be a bat“. It is also fed by the human-tamed beauty of reed landscapes around lake Federsee which can be seen in the photo I took.

gedicht / copyright jo richter:

welch unvorstellbare macht
muss die masse im erdkern
beleben, das wasser, die erde,
die wurzeln sicher zu halten

zu wahren, die landschaftsfalten
wie eine große gebärde
ins weltall zu richten, das fern
sternlicht um sternlicht entfacht

des tags wuchert das grün
höher und höher empor
bis der wind braune samen
biosphärenweit streut

welch wuchskraft, die sich nicht scheut
sich bis zum astralen
zu wenden aus schwarztiefem moor,
anarchisch und kühn

so müsse auch mensch sich recken,
heißt es, sich loszulösen,
zu den sternen zu streben,
geballte planetenmassen

mit erdensproßsinnen zu fassen,
sich aus den symbiosen zu heben
und seine bedürfnisblößen
xenobiotisch zu decken

welch trugschluss, den leib
dort zu bewegen, wo geist
sich angleicht und fragt: wie
ist es, so zu erleben

die saat darf und muss schweben,
sich aus massewucht lösen, die
sie hielt, doch wie weit sie auch reist,
das schilf, das sie treibt, verbleibt



interlinear rendition:
reeds at lake federsee // what incomprehensible power / has to inspire the mass in earth‘s core/ to hold, to keep the water, the earth / and the roots securely // the folds of the landscape / akin to a giant gesture / directed into the cosmos which lights / star after star in the distance // during the day, the lush green rises / higher and higher / until the wind distributes brown seeds / across the biosphere // what power of growth, not hesitating / to turn towards the stars / from the black deep of the moor / anarchic, courageous // thus man would have to strech as well / people say, to loosen their ties / per aspera ad astra / to measure dense planet masses // with earth-grown senses / detach themselves from symbioses / and cover their bare and many needs / with xenobiosis // what a fallacy of misplaced concreteness to move the body / where the mind adapts and queries / what it is like / to experience like that // mind‘s pollen may and will hover / free itself from the power of mass which / had held it but however far it will travel /  the reed that grows it remains where it is //

Just added some synths & beats since then. Not mixed/Mistakes included.

Will collect some of them to bandcamp later x

Cosmic Operations (Demo)

This is a song I actually had the seed for but then Jeff really made it blossom into what it is now.  
It's always great writing with this guy because he's cool as shit and you never know how things are gonna turn out.   This was a great example of both as Jeff took my part and ran with it.  The next time I heard it, it was almost what you hear now.  I added some percussion and production elements along with the final mix.  His poetry that is the lyric is below.  

Beloved sisters of the Storm
by jeff gardlner

i don't think i'm going home, this thing won't leave me alone..I've got fragments of the sun and moon imbedded in the core of my cerebral stem.. and of course there is that key That's allegedly buried in this pile of sacred rocks in space that supposedly unlocks the gate that holds the dog and holds the bone and blocks the path that takes me home.

Check yourself, what are you feeling at the present moment..Some times i can feel the giant moving slightly in it's sleep.. just like Vishnu dreaming high in the mountain valleys of the mighty Himalayas

a tiny silver thread, transcendent of the reckless life we lead
a raging river way down below
the moment when you realize lt's finally time to go
oh beloved Sisters of the storm thank you for appearing ln your human form
what could l do what could l say, l thought that l was on my way to another nervous breakdown
the taste of life so sweet upon our tounges, We were gods when we were young--

Euphorla
by jeff gardlner

I've got about two hours before i have to go back to reality
i got so damned relaxed, i'm fucked up to the max
you know this is the highlight of my day.
i sure wish it lasted longer, i might have to find something stronger.
immortality is not a possibility anyway.

i'm waiting for Euphoria, i'm waiting for Euphoria
Out on the edge so bright and cool, Restless waves of Brilliant darkness down below whisper me a fool..Whisper me a fool.
i got so damned relaxed, i'm fucked up to the max, you know this is the highlight of my day..i sure wish it lasted longer, i may have to find something stronger, immortality is not a possibility anyway..

It's cool and clear and bright out here above the cheaters and the lovers and the fighters, daydreamers, betrayers,and the liars stacked in layers like hotcakes on your Momma's kitchen table. Admit the truth if you know it,even though it's just amalgamated combinations of opinions from the minnions of the overlords.

Tell us all about the sacred Books oh captain of the guard.is there something to be said in defense of Intellect aside from the fact that it makes us hard to kill. So everyone please take your pill, the government will foot the bill.

This strange exotic, apocalyptic somewhat erotic musical notes of this life surreal is yanking at my heartstrings.
Turns out to be just the ticket for a perfect afternoon..

I've got about two hours before i have to go back to reality...

Anthology Act II  - w/ Stonerjazz

method: stylophone, miniak, vt4, samplitude
narration: another item of solstice lore
image: copyright jo richter


poem / copyright jo richter:

dark-feathered, weightless
sullen birds settle
in circles on pastures
to celebrate dusk

ingesting the outside
intestines grind time
eyes held in beak gaps
in fog-shrouded dusk

earthworks to fence in
the thwarted old ways
voraciously stalking
on dewy-eyed dawn
ditches to keep out
those preying on dawn

avian solstice

One of the first people I met on this platform was the wonderful Societe Cantine. He listened with open ears and offered indepth thoughts on my music and sparked conversation and experimentation. He, himself a mind-blowing sound artist, has released a  string of albums over the last decade that still sing with originality and genre breaking optimism. We danced round the edges of collaboration for a longtime, adding little bits of sound to bigger projects or producing video. Just before COVID hit the world we finally met in Paris - I had so much talk about, as did he.. like children we struggled with face to face language; his english is good, my french is terrible : ) We decided that we should finally start collaborating in depth and this is the first piece - conceived and played with, back and forth during lockdown COVID times. Naturally enough we titled it Language Gap after our initial stumbling meeting. It got an honourary mention in the 2023 One Minute Radio Festival and through that has been played all over the world . Fardeau Losange (as he now known) and I are working now, very slowly on some sort of album - it will take forever, but its almost secondary to the friendship that has grown around the music we have listened to, written and shared on this platform.   https://societecantine.bandcamp.com/album/lopacit-des-interlignes

method: synth sounds, pedals of course, voice, post prod in Samplitude 

narration: "On approaching the other it has lost its own self, since it finds itself as another being; secondly, it has thereby sublated that other, for this primitive consciousness does not regard the other as essentially real but sees its own self in the other" (G.W.F. Hegel) (for a brief overview see here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord%E2%80%…ndsman_dialectic, for a close encounter see here: archive.org/stream/phenomenolog…0F%20Hegel_djvu.txt )

poem (copyright jo richter):

the rulers lived above our heads
masters thrived and servants bled
bombs keep dropping on the dead
hegel's words remain unread
to hail a leader is to be misled
the earth accepts the chains you shed

VA FLORES VENENUM
(extremely poisonous)

VA Flores Venenum is a compilation with dark experimental sounds and brings women producers together from different sides of the world, will release by Metacortex Records.

Flores Venenum means poisonous flowers and the title of each track on the album has been chosen from the poisonous flowers around the world. Flores Venenum name is quite meaningful for us with regards to the challenges women went throughout the history, to gain independence as an individual, as well as to realize and value existence of oneself. Spiritual and emotional abilities of women have been unrecognized for ages and their physical abilities have been unfairly decided to be lesser then men. Such abilities have been realized during the witch-hunts of Middle Ages where thousands of innocent women remorselessly massacred.

Since the first sin in the story of Adam & Eve, which is among the oldest myths known, the women have been associated with the devil due to their complicated nature, miraculous fertility and hysterical psyche, and stigmatized for being sinful and perilous.Women are equally significant as the men in the fabric of existence, which in fact is still a mystery, have been seen as an inferior gender throughout the history, in addition to misinterpretation of many religious books and texts, many myths and stories such as God creating the woman after the man have led to the women, who are actually one of the genders that ensure sustainability of existence and complete each other, being polarized even further throughout the centuries.
During the past centuries, when humankind’s understanding and abilities had been developing in a faster pace, only men were given right to get education, while women went through hardship similar to slaves and were deprived of education that would improve their knowledge and abilities. Dark shadows of such ages, where a statement or a decision of a women disregarded and overlooked, are still on our tail. It will not be easy to decode these notions which are now deeply rooted in societies’ culture, perception and lifestyle, even though a new order has come to our country with Ataturk and the Republic that offers equal rights to women. In some eastern countries, women are still being alienated as in the past, living with lesser rights then men.
Even in the 20th century which we describe as “modern”, despite the ignorant perspective of patriarchy, a paradigm shift is about to be brought only by women of modern countries and cities where they were able to raise their voices, make their own choices and improve themselves.

Women fertility actually symbolizes nature's creativity. Untold and forgotten history of matriarchal societies’ harmonious life with nature would astonish a modern human as much as it would do to a caveman. We might have long forgotten once shamans were women , considering the emotional and instinctual nature of Motherhood, spiritually powerful and considerably intelligent women might be a magical key for the universal peace and unity.Abilities and spiritual powers of women may have been unearthed now in 2020.
Women are on the move in music sector as in every area and from now on they are uniting to evoke universal equality.
Poisonous Flowers screams out the violence and malice over women throughout the history uttering the darkest possible experimental sounds in remembrance of women who were tormented just for being born as a female, WE ARE HERE!
Flores Venenum is being prepared completely by the strong women of dark psychedelic scene of today; compiled by Oxomo, cover artwork by Onul and mastering by Plankton.

Hostage To Desire

One day I was traversing Soundcloud and came across the fabulous Italian poet, Ilaria Boffa. This is why I love Soundcloud. @ilaria_boffa. Her words and voice flowed out of my web browser and into my heart and soul. So  I reached out and begged her to collaborate with me. Lucky for me she agreed and then allowed me some creative license. So this is for you Ilaria, to you and your voice. May the world be as touched as I was by your words and creative spirit.

Ilaria took the piece published here on SC as "Music for Trains and Station Platforms" and captured it's mood and wrote some stellar, powerful words that created a whole new life and vision for the music. I applaud and am humbled by her multilingual approach to her art using a beautiful vividness of expression of human soul! Bravo Ilaria , bravo.

Days in Autumn (homage to ‘You Must Believe in Spring’ by Bill Evans) 

we must believe in spring
Earth axis increases
its tilt to the Sun
dew comes, frost no more
vernal peers share light

many a time belatedly
days in autumn
prepare for cold and 
special smell of soil
many a time fitfully

oh we must believe in spring
let snow melt and streams swell
the hardiest flowers sprout
days in autumn
prepare for dark and
many a time forecast the yield

dobbiamo sperare nella primavera
l’asse della terra aumenta
l’inclinazione al sole
giunge la rugiada, scongela la brina
i pari dividono la luce in primavera 

spesso in ritardo
i giorni d’autunno
preparano al freddo
all’odore tipico della terra
spesso irregolari nel modo

oh dobbiamo sperare nella primavera
lasciamo la neve sciogliere e i fiumi gonfiare
che spuntino i fiori più temerari 
i giorni d’autunno
preparano al buio e
spesso dicono il raccolto
