Disclaimer: Ladies and gentlemen, and anyone who needs a special mention, I'm throwing caution to the wind and speaking out about this chaos. I'm going live, ready or not. So, sit back, relax, and try to enjoy - it's all for your own good.

It's the year 2035, and the new US president—luckily a humanoid robot with AI capabilities—stands before the UN General Assembly, reveals the truth about the country’s past, and asks the world for pardon.

/// 0I00II /// ***** Today, I Stand Here—Guess I Might Be Dreamin’ // All Minor Extra Noise Mix // 0I00II ///

written by fictionalive // music, carefully used, is the tune 'All Minor' provided by mobygratis.com and spiced up with some extra noise sampled in by fictionalive—fully licensed music // fusion of it all  - fictionalive with the popoems series and the hyper media reports / fair use only / June 25, 2025 //

Today, I Stand Here—Guess I Might Be Dreamin’ // All Minor Extra Noise Mix

Who's the bitch today?
What seeks rich?
What can mind attract?
What says unconscious black mind itch?

Magnetic mirrors we are
Untuned, you feed abuse
Try 'keep me from my star
I'm quite convenient to mute
If you listened you might hear
If you looked, Love you'd see
If smells were sensed, Dear roses
But no, you mute the real me

Real me says too much
Real me works for very little
Real me is not.materialistic
Real me unbreakable but brittle
Real me is dark to light
Real me is calm from fright
Real me helps with depression
Real me sees prescient sight
Real me doesn't impose
Real me doesn't control
Real me sprays musical prose
Real me prays affluent role
Real me will ride you hard
Real me will love like lark
Real me is covered in thorn and barb
Real me is me, The dark 🕶️

The Dark (Acoustic)

My good friend https://soundcloud.com/delirium-funk gave me his Bastl Kastle to play with ... and this rainy, ricey ritual little number slowly emerged from that crazy little box! Enjoy! 😁😜

I love listening to & creating ambient, dark ambient, avant-garde & experimental electronica (and the occasional beatscape). I have no professional aspirations  - I just really like creating music / manipulating sounds. It's my way of relaxing after a hard day at the office. All my tracks are produced using monitoring headphones (Audix A140) so I recommend that you listen to my music through headphones. My DAW of choice is FL Studio. I also use Reason every now & then. 


To the artists I follow; I do my best to try to listen to as many of your tracks as possible each night (I listen to each track all the way through - you went through the effort to create a track so you deserve to have it heard in full). If I miss a recent upload of yours, please forgive me...

Thank you for taking the time to visit my little corner of the soundcloud.

Naviar is a music community and label. Through regular publications, open projects and events, we explore the connection between experimental music and traditional Japanese poetry.
