Getting out of Houston on the weekend was of paramount importance to me when I lived in Webster, TX supporting the Space Shuttle program with Ford Aerospace.  My friends Rick, Connie, and little Cody were living in Edna at the time so I would hop on down as much as I could.  I tried to convince a friend from the apartment complex to come with me even with a song, but it never materialized.

Leaving for Edna

Leaving For Edna

STEREO!

A poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay accompanied by original background piano music:

"Ashes of Life"

***
Love has gone and left me and the days are all alike;
Eat I must, and sleep I will,--and would that night were here!
But ah!--to lie awake and hear the slow hours strike!
Would that it were day again!--with twilight near!

Love has gone and left me and I don't know what to do;
This or that or what you will is all the same to me;
But all the things that I begin I leave before I'm through,--
There's little use in anything as far as I can see.

Love has gone and left me,--and the neighbors knock and borrow,
And life goes on forever like the gnawing of a mouse,--
And to-morrow and to-morrow and to-morrow and to-morrow
There's this little street and this little house.


Here is an analysis of the poem:

Edna St. Vincent Millay's poem "Ashes of Life" explores themes of loss, sorrow, and the aftermath of a broken relationship. Through poignant and melancholic imagery, the poem conveys a deep sense of emotional desolation and the lingering pain of lost love. The "ashes" symbolize the remnants of a once-vibrant relationship, now reduced to memories and regret. Millay's portrayal emphasizes the enduring impact of love's end and the haunting emptiness it leaves behind.



Concerning the background music:
 
Neo-Contemporary Ethereal Fusion music is an attempt at an extraordinary and intricate musical journey that incorporates an array of innovative elements and artistic influences. Drawing inspiration from Neo-Classical, Avant-Garde, and Contemporary music, it standw as a tribute to the limitless possibilities to poetic exploration. 

This track showcases relentless commitment to pushing the boundaries of musical expression beyond the musical rules. 

Its Experimental nature invites listeners to embrace the unknown, as it delves into uncharted sonic territories. The result is an intricate tapestry of sound that challenges traditional norms and expectations. 

The Ethereal and Ambient qualities infuse the music with an almost otherworldly aura, creating an immersive and transcendent listening experience. 

The Minimalist approach adds depth and complexity through simplicity, allowing each note and sound to carry profound significance. The Fusion elements weave together a rich and diverse sonic palette, transcending genres and conventions. This Fusion not only tries to captivate but also provoke thught and emotion, making the musical tracks truly Expressive in its storytelling. With a Cinematic flair, this music may transport the listener to distant realms and evokes vivid imagery and emotions. It's Evocative in its ability to paint sonic landscapes that spark the imagination. 

Enigmatic and Reflective, the music invites listeners to explore the depths of their thoughts and emotions. It serves as a catalyst for introspection and self-discovery, leaving an indelible mark on the soul.

ilm Score Flips: Part 2 - The Incredibles 🦸🏾‍♂️

Next in store we got A’r Edna stepping to the mic, NO CAPES!!!

Feeling inspired by the childhood classics on this one, but mashing it up with a #speedgarage twist.

Lemme know in the comments what we’re saying on this one, chef BB over and out 👨🏾‍🍳🧸

NO CAPES

edna ( https://soundcloud.com/ednahaha ) uses deviant beats and dark and ecstatic textures to create a portal to other dimensions. Her music is like a zest of life, developed in weird, dynamic and sexy atmospheres, into which ectasis and joy appear like explosions. She explores the narrative potential of DJ sets, weaving in and out and around hard techno, breaks and tribe, choosing a direction rather than a stream. On the stage, she sculpts a weird and playful, generous black-eyed creature, often associating music with visuals, dance, and performance.

This new premiere is from a track from “Portails”, her first EP, announced for the beginning of 2025, after several single releases on compilations in 2023. As a rising DJ and producer from the queer scene of Marseille, edna’s talent is demonstrated well beyond, in European clubs and within multiple musical and scenic collaborations with artists from all over the world.

Portails, is about transcending boundaries, with each track serving as a portal to a distinct sound world populated by strange, otherworldly creatures. Musically, it navigates a landscape of cross-genre experimentation, demonstrating how a narrative can emerge through contrasting genres and sound textures. Each track taps into the same emotional core, using different sonic languages to express a unified journey.

In the hard hitting Camouflage, Claustinto’s haunting vocals, driven by a heavy bass, sharp textured artisanal FX, and a persistent nagging synth, explore the pressures of societal masking.

Claustinto created the lyrics and reworked the instrumental. Mixing and mastering took place in Submarine FM’s studio, in Blacieux, Ardèche.

✸ [SWINE PREMIERE] ✸ @ednahaha - "Sex With Insects"

☛ "How do you explain that we sometimes understand each other with very few words, as if we were already lovers elsewhere, somewhere that goes beyond what we usually perceive and call reality? Perhaps we’re constantly opening portals between dimensions, where the same information is expressed through different codes," thinks Edna.

Illuming @ Darkness w/ Nikolina, Graf Karl Kassel (15.02.2025)

ENB @ Darkness w/ Nikolina & Edna (15.03.2025) Graf Karl, Kassel (VINYL HYBRID SET)

Intro (voicemail sample, old woman’s voice):
“Hello? Is this the IRS? Oh dear… you said there’s a warrant? I don’t want any trouble…”
Click. Dial tone.

⸻

🎤 Verse 1 – The Trigger (The Spark)

My grandma got a call, said her taxes were behind
From “Officer John,” with a thick-ass lie in his line
Said she’d be locked up if she ain’t pay on the spot
So she ran down to Walmart, drained all she got

Google Play cards, sent the numbers by phone
Alone in her kitchen, thinking she’s paying a loan
But nah — it was fraud, man, a scripted attack
From a sweatshop call center somewhere deep in Noida’s back

“My name is Steve,” — please, Steve ke maa ki
You sound like Ravi with a fake-ass ID
They hide behind scripts, Western names, fake tones
But their heart’s in the scam, cold to the bone

That night I swore, I ain’t lettin’ it ride
My fam took a loss, now I’m techin’ with pride
Rewrote the game, from Twitch to command lines
Masked up like Browning, vengeance in my rhymes

⸻

🎤 Hook (sung/spoken hybrid)

🎵 “You called her ‘ma’am’ — now it’s clickback season
You stole her peace — now I’m hacking for a reason
You hide your voice — I’ll expose the treason
Scamfighter’s oath — we don’t stop, we deepen…” 🎵

“This one’s for the grandmas, for every broken plan —
You scammed the wrong fam, now we fight from the LAN.”

⸻

🎤 Verse 2 – The Methods (Then and Now)

Used to be letters — “I’m a prince, claim your gold!”
Now it’s deepfakes and spoof calls, scams getting bold
From fake tech support to love that ain’t real
Romance baited by bots with no soul to feel

They fish for the old, the kind, the confused
While the government sleeps and the cops hit snooze
So we stepped up, underground knights with no sword
Just Python scripts, burner phones, keyboard wars

Jim hacked the cams, watched ’em laugh and grin
Pierogi wiped their files — justice on a whim
Kitboga had ’em talking to Edna for hours
Wasting their life with comedic power

Meanwhile, I’m tracing IPs and bounce routes
Hopping through proxies, taking scam farms out
Turn the mouse to a trap — they clicked, now they burn
You preyed on the weak, now the strong return

⸻

🎤 Verse 3 – The Message (Justice & Warning)

You fake names like “Brian,” say you’re born in Maine
But your accent’s leaking, bro — tu pagal hai, shame!
Got scripts, got prompts, got fake-ass flair
But can’t fake truth — we already there

This is for Nani and Pops who lost their rent
For the tears in their voice and the cash they sent
For every sleepless night that you caused with a lie
We came online and turned scam into spy

We ain’t police — we the ghosts in your code
The digital shadow walking your road
You preyed on the kind, but now it’s reversed
Each click you steal brings a Scamfighter curse

You built a castle on tears? Now it’s crumbling down
We wear hoodies, not crowns, but we’re takin’ that town
From Mumbai to Manila, Lagos to the Bay —
If you scam the elders, we’ll make you pay.

⸻

🎶 Outro (sample fade out)

“This call may be recorded for quality purposes…”
(glitchy echo)
“You have reached Scamfighter HQ. Welcome to the end of your shift.”

Ma’am, It’s Urgent
