"For the Stumbling, for the Fallen" by mhatanGRAUZAHN | Stream of Consciousness Indie Pop, Synthpop & Downtempo Fusion

Dive into a hypnotic stream of consciousness with mhatanGRAUZAHN's latest track, "For the Stumbling, for the Fallen". Blending indie pop, synthpop, and downtempo influences, this experimental composition invites you on a lyrical journey through fragmented thoughts, shifting rhythms, and abstract poetry.

With cryptic lines like “Clever signs on bending roads / Weave confusion into minds” and “Dollar in the West Wing / Tiny titty games”, the song delivers a surreal commentary on modern life, inner turmoil, and fleeting clarity. From introspective verses to glitchy synth layers, this track sits at the crossroads of electronic minimalism and lyrical maximalism.

Whether you're drawn to avant-garde songwriting, atmospheric electro pop, or just want to get lost in something raw and unfiltered, this track is made for the stumbling, the fallen—and those who keep rising.

Prepare for launch. Dub Voyager is a deep space transmission from producer rushdj, blending roots dub, turntablism, futuristic sound design, and mystic vibrations into a hypnotic journey across the outer realms. Powered by subsonic basslines, tripped-out delays, and galactic reverbs, this album pays homage to classic Jamaican dub while hurtling it lightyears ahead.

Each track is a star system of its own—coded in riddim, wrapped in haze, guided by an ancient order watching from the shadows. It’s reggae for the next dimension, a spiritual soundtrack for those who spark it, dance with it, or simply drift away.

But this is more than music—it’s a story.

The year is 3042. Earth is on the brink of total collapse. With the planet facing imminent destruction, humanity gathers its brightest minds, essential resources, and fragments of culture to board one final vessel: Dub Voyager. Its mission—to find a new home among the stars. A chance to rebuild. To learn from the past. To begin again.

Infused with turntablism, hip hop, and R&B/soul, this album channels both the pain of collapse and the hope of rebirth. It is the first transmission from Blighted Records—a label born from ruin, built for revolution.

“This is not music. This is a transmission.”

Intergalactic High feat. Lightly

Heavy clouds, mind's a storm I can't outpace
Tears on my cheek, running laps in this empty space
Mirror tells lies, or maybe it’s me
Every path I take feels like a dead-end street

Thought I’d find answers in the glow of my phone
Scrolling through lives, but I’m still on my own
Heart's in my throat, voice drowned in the noise
Searching for a sign, just static, no choice

Every move, second-guessed
Every breath, feels compressed

Don’t know what to do, where to go, who to be
Lost in the fog, can’t even see me
Echoes in my head, they won't leave me alone
I’m screaming for directions, but the map's overthrown

Tried to draw a line, but the ink just fades
Dreams turn to shadows in the mess I’ve made
Walking through the dark, no stars in the sky
Every step feels shallow, no wings to fly

Voices whisper "stay," but the ground ain't safe
Running in circles, can't escape my own face
Tried to fake smiles, but they slip through my teeth
Crumbling like sand, my soul underneath

Obsession

4TRAX composes in quiet defiance—“Sonata for Shadows” is a whispered reckoning, a duet between the one who builds and the one who watches. Structured like a classical sonata but dripping in ambient dread and spectral warmth, this track moves through grief, reflection, and eventual reconciliation. The ghost doesn’t haunt—it advises. The beat doesn’t drop—it exhales.

Operatic samples float like memories, while dub swells anchor the truths left unsaid. This is music for the in-between: between failure and forgiveness, intention and execution, past and possibility. It’s not about defeating darkness. It’s about giving it a desk, a voice, a seat at the boardroom of your becoming.

7. SONATA FOR SHADOWS

This song is all about how it feels to love freely whether in shadow or in light.
Love can see us throught the darkest of night.

I hope you enjoy watching and listening, thank you for your time and support!
