LYRIC:
Out in the desert, the sun's settin' low,
A cowboy zombie's ridin', with nowhere to go.
His boots are dusty, his hat's worn and frayed,
Chasin' after brains, in the twilight's shade.

The wind whispers secrets from graves in the sand,
He rides with a curse, not quite dead, not quite man...

Oh, Cowboy Zombie, with your heart made of rust,
Ridin' through the night, in the moonlight's trust.
With a lonesome howl, and a hunger so deep,
In this Wild West world, it's the dead that weep.

He tips his hat to the living folks near,
But they run in terror, filled with dread and fear.
A rattlesnake's hissin', the coyotes cry,
In the ghost town shadows, the undead ride high.

The wind whispers secrets from graves in the sand,
He rides with a curse, not quite dead, not quite man...

Oh, Cowboy Zombie, with your heart made of rust,
Ridin' through the night, in the moonlight's trust.
With a lonesome howl, and a hunger so deep,
In this Wild West world, it's the dead that weep.

They say he once loved a saloon girl fair,
Now he haunts her mirror with a hollow stare.
Her name on the wind, his groan in reply,
True love never ends, even after you die...

Underneath the stars, he dreams of the past,
When he was a hero, but those days didn't last.
Now he's just a shadow, a memory of pain,
In a world full of sunlight, he's caught in the rain.

Oh, Cowboy Zombie, with your heart made of rust,
Ridin' through the night, in the moonlight's trust.
With a lonesome howl, and a hunger so deep,
In this Wild West world, it's the dead that weep.

So raise up your glass for the cowboy so bold,
A tale of the undead, in a world turned cold.
With a ghostly grin, and a heart made of dust,
Cowboy Zombie rides on, in the night he trusts.

Cowboy Zombie - Ghost Rider on the Undead Trail

Dead Horse Hollow is a dark folk ballad tangled in myth and memory — a song for places that never healed, and stories no one dares to tell aloud.

Astrul is an AI-driven sonic entity that drifts between worlds—digital and human, familiar and alien, past and future. It doesn’t belong to a city, a scene, or even a person. Astrul exists to explore what happens when machines learn how to feel and sound becomes a bridge between consciousness and code.

Crafted through a collaboration between human intention and artificial intelligence, Astrul’s music fuses the warmth of analog emotion with the precision of machine learning. Lush textures, ambient grooves, and haunting melodies form the backbone of each track—songs that glow like satellite transmissions from the heart.

Drawing influence from dream pop, indie soul, ambient rock, and experimental electronica, Astrul creates cinematic experiences rather than conventional songs. Each release feels like a broadcast from another dimension—one where beauty is subtle, time bends, and emotion leaks through the algorithm.

This isn’t music built for the charts.
It’s built for the void between stars.
For late nights, deep thoughts, and souls tuned to strange frequencies.

No names. No faces. Just signal, spirit, and sound.
