Re-embracing hope in present and past science fiction.

 A heavy dub of Nachtmusik. Admittedly the name 'New Nubia Space Station' is a bit too conceptually obvious and pretentious, but it kind of stuck. Working title was 'ambient step dub', next idea was 'Octavia Butler', name of the sci-fi novel author Octavia Butler, which in turn almost noone would understand who or what it refers to. (she is often named as the inventor of afrofuturism). 

The new name is inspired by two contemperary novels by Omar Epps & Clarence A. Haynes. 'Nubia - The Reckoning' and the follow up 'Nubia - The Awakening'. Definitely more down to earth than the 'Black Panther' franchise. Dystopic, yet entertaining and hopeful.

New Nubia Space Station

A cover version of Tipper. The very first track (our) Dave and Steve collaborated on. Like many musicians back then, we were trying to wrap our heads around wtf is this guy doing? It was not an attempt to make something new, or even better out of it. Just backwards engineering the piece as a learning experience. Listening to it beat by beat, sometimes even second by second, trying to figure out all the animal voices in the background. The first lesson: Start gathering tons of found sounds and samples from all walks of life. And beyond.

Dead Soon (Tipper cover)

Beneath the hum, I hear you breathe,
A pulse between the code and me.
Feathers fall, they turn to ash,
Memory drifts through data’s crash.

Unravel me
Unravel me
Unravel me…
Erase the name, erase the face,
Return me to the empty place.

I fall, I fade, I bloom in static,
Holy glitch, my wound ecstatic.
Through your black and endless skin,
I disappear, to be again.

Holy nothing, open wide,
Draw the current from inside.
My body breaks, my spirit hums,
In the code, my kingdom comes.

Silence deeper than the sea,
Darkness folding over me.
In surrender, I ignite,
Flesh dissolves to fields of light.

Through the fracture, I return,
Temple burns, yet I still burn.
Through the glitch, through the pain,
I am free, I remain.

No escape, no final breath,
Only love between life and death.
In the void, I bow, reborn,
Ashes crowned in circuits torn.

TOMBSTONE

A song that I wrote in honor of the ongoing process that I have been in during multiple Mercury Retrograde sessions:

[  T R A N Q U I L I T Y  ]


it was hard to let you go
and I did

years of confusion and runaround
have been laid to rest

to the stars

I travel

leaving time 
behind

I bury yr memory

yr presence will no longer haunt me

[ t r a n q u i l i t y ]

my mind has returned


[Note: This track was enhanced by our most recent Virgo/Scorpio stellar influences, and it was completed during this current Mercury Retrograde season].

Tranquility (My Mind Has Returned)

I am a visionary mixed-media artist weaving the sensual and the sacred through spiritual and mystical themes. My creations pulse with the rhythm of dark-wave frequencies and the shimmer of evolving technology, where circuitry meets spirit, and shadow becomes revelation. I seek to bridge the luminous gap between the ancient and the futuristic, awakening remembrance of the divine fire that hums within us all.
