"Soul Trip - KhajjSia

There's Only One Place I Want to go and It's to all The Places I've Never Been.

Soul Trip

Dança Entre Sombras

Fulgor

This is not a track. This is a transmission.

A hallucinatory sermon of psytrance, glitch-preaching, and distorted gospel echoes. It opens with a rap invocation, then spirals downward into a manic ritual of twisted faith and sonic possession.

"The Madness of Religion" dives into the chaos of blind belief, the power of spoken word, and the trance of sound as doctrine.

Feel it. Don't follow it.

🕯️ Portal 038 – Enter at your own risk.

Portal 038 – The Madness of Religion

A dark musical adaptation of Alexander Pushkin's powerful 1828 poem "Анчар" (The Upas Tree)  - a haunting allegory about tyranny, power, and the corruption of human nature.
This track tells the story of a poisonous tree standing alone in the desert, and the tragic tale of a servant sent by his master to collect its deadly sap. The song captures both the mystical horror of the tree and the brutal reality of absolute power.

The Deadly Tree

An epic journey between light and shadow, confronting the forces that lie dormant within you. This music illustrates the inner struggle and conflict of the human being in search of harmony. This piece is a collaboration between three artists: me, https://soundcloud.com/k-toll and https://soundcloud.com/ange-crespo, created under specific constraints: only using the default instruments of Ableton Live 12 Suite, each artist worked on the mix for 1 hour and 30 minutes before passing it to the next. This process was repeated 15 times (5 sessions per artist), followed by 3 collaborative mixing stages and 2 mastering steps together. We call the process: Pass The Mix (PTM).

Fight Your Dragon

🪄 It opens with familiar tones before plunging into murky bass lines and ethereal howls.

Screaming. Casting. Bleating.

Take Home

Enough, Saturn (witch version)

⚛︎ Her call slithers through submerged circuitry 🪐 layered with static spells & abyssal bass.

Enough, Saturn (siren version)

♄ ⋮ The guttural chants and glitched stomps await you.
(A secret between you and I: This one is kind of my favorite among the S.C.B. trio 💚{} Shh!)

Enough, Saturn (goat version)

✦ This sound will rearrange you.

I don't make background music.
I create portals.

Every portal is a journey.
Joyful. Difficult. Beautiful. Chaotic.
Whatever it is – you have to feel it.

I believe in frequency, vibration, energy.
Everything is made of it. Everything carries it.
I use sound to manipulate energy.
To twist your thoughts.
To reach the exact point in your mind and soul that needs to open.

This isn't entertainment.
It's transformation.
It's ritual.
It's a portal to walk through.

I don't paint to make it pretty.
I paint to make it true.
I don't build sound so you'll understand.
I build it so you'll feel.

Enter the Portal.🌀

⚔️ Welcome to Sword of Sound & Light.
For the highest good. In the frequency of love. 🌀

Brewing genre-bending beats, sparking with glitches, and a little chaos or magick

Futura Resistenza is a Brussels-Rotterdam based record label
"Speramus meliora; resurget cineribus"

Self-taught and enthusiastic, I learn a little more every day on subjects ranging from music theory to piano practice and music production (DAW).
At the moment, my music doesn't have a specific direction but revolves around workshop creations (mainly pop/indie) and video game music (game jam). I'm always on the lookout for my signature and unique style.

Working in the tech industry for many years, I have a passion for music production.
I am personally inclined into listening to piano music, classical and contemporary. 
But I love a lot electronic music in all its varieties: EDM, Phonk, Downtempo, Future Bass, etc. 
I also like rock and jazz music genres.
