Stranded
Written by Nikki Shannon Smith
Narrated by Ahnya O’Riordan

Eleven-year-old Ava Adams is looking for something different. The tall Manhattan buildings around her feel like walls closing in. And what if she doesn't fit in with her city-loving friends or busybody family who think Black folks "don't do nature?" But in a twist of fate, Ava is shocked to learn that her parents are actually allowing her to stay with her Aunt Raven in the Adirondacks for the summer.

In her Auntie's simple cabin, living off the land with nature's beauty filling her senses, the woods feel more like home than Manhattan. As Summer comes to a close and Aunt Raven has to leave for the winter, the dream has to come to an end. Or does it? When Aunt Raven leaves, Ava expects her parents' truck to arrive any moment. But as the hours go by, the reality sinks in. They're not coming.

That night, one storm will change everything. When lightning strikes a nearby tree just before it lands on the cabin, the roof and the water tank of Aunt Raven's cabin are instantly destroyed. With no cell reception and no neighbors for miles, Ava begins to realize what she's up against: A frozen garden, a diminishing supply of food, an abandoned neighboring farm, and mountains blanketed with snow and ice mean Ava is on her own-literally. And her newly developed survival skills might not be enough. It's the ultimate test, but this isn't just about proving something to her parents. It's about proving it to herself.

STRANDED (Prod. by NVRMNDFRVR)

Vulnerability is the best gift Dréa can give y’all.  It was quite the ride and sometimes, letting your emotions flow without shame is self love. She started with love for IAMDDB, being annoyed about being stranded, she cried and she laughed. So if you need to let anything out, this episode is the safe space to do so. Your ancestors have a safe space just for you to do so. Tap into your heart.

EP35 — Stranded on the Highway & Let’s Cry Together

Imagine being stranded on a spaceship, surrounded by the cold void of space, with your only companion being your own mind, that gives in to paranoia and despair with each day. Hope is fading away as you get no response to any of your distress calls...

Distress Call

For the first Chameleoncast of 2025, we’ve got something special in store: Lunar Drift’s selection of finest ambient music. 

Minimalistic soundscapes that appreciate the fleeting moment drive the ongoing drift of perspective. In their quiet simplicity, these pieces remind us of the beauty in transience and the subtle art of being present.

This song is about second chances. Trial and error. It's how I learned making music. It's how I navigate my life. It's the only thing I have on this Lonely Island of Mine.

Kiss Bálint Béla, also known as BlueScarf is a Hungarian writer, independent singer-songwriter, producer, filmmaker & creative individual from Bratislava, Slovakia. BlueScarf started making music in his high school years in an attempt to combat his fears and face the inevitable end of childhood. With his genre-bending style and honest, transparent voice he creates about the metaphorical, as well as the painfully raw and real.

His debut single, "Suffocating", takes its listeners to a place of quiet despair and sheer panic, mashing soft, melancholic piano with agressive drums and grungy electric guitars in the midst of a thunderstorm. 

The follow-up, "Goldfish" is a radical departure from the tone set by its predecessor. It sounds fun, upbeat, but beyond its innocence there lies unexpressed fear and indecision.

"Lonely Island of Mine", the last single before his debut album is about second chances. Trial and error. Embracing mistakes and being patient with ourselves. It is gritty, real, but uplifting at the same time, merging elements of rap and rock with heavy screams.
