I'm proud to present to you my reimagination of "Serpent Of Old," a decade-old cult classic by Seven Lions & Ciscandra Nostalghia.

This one is really special to me because the original track showed me a completely different perspective on EDM and sparked my love for dark and ominous music.

The brilliant simplicity and hollowness of the original "Serpent of Old" cannot be matched, so I decided to go all-in and create this beautiful amalgamation of chaos.

I hope you'll embrace my vision with joy and open hearts.

- Paul

SEVEN LIONS  - SERPENT OF OLD (ft. CISCANDRA NOSTALGHIA) (CASTER REMIX)

Premiered at the ATTACCA FESTIVAL on June 6th in the Druckereihalle-Ackermannshof St. Johanns-Vorstadt, Basel (Switzerland)

Performed by María Alejandra Jiménez

The initial musical gesture that opens this piece is a regular pulsation that appears in the distance and fades away, very soft, as if we were listening to the air breathing, or the perception of the dripping of water when we move away from it and only the echo remains. This pulsation gradually breaks up and blurs into complex textures and harmonies. Throughout the piece there are several attempts to bring the purity of the beginning back, but the passage of time and the cracks in the musical discourse - as in human life - prevent us from the exact reconstruction of an image or a sound from the past. 

This piece is inspired by the aesthetic experience of watching Andrei Tarkovsky's film Nostalghia (1983).

Deja Vu Rise Again

Recorded in 2 days, all from scratch, note for note, using the guitar my landlord lent me, and FL Studio 10 on my old ass computer to fill in the rest. Played and sung by yours truly.

Here's presenting my new cover track for the song "Plastic Heart" - written by Joel J. Richard, Tyler Bates, and originally performed by Nostalghia for the official John Wick: Chapter 2 soundtrack.

Did I enjoy making this track?  "Yeeeaaahhhh" -John Wick 😎

Plastic Heart | Cover Track

Lyrics: 

Jemand nähert sich meinem Traum.
Ich öffne meine Augen.
Das Licht geht an
und eine Hand vom Rande der Welt
drückt den Türgriff.
Ich habe nicht die Abgeklärtheit der Toten,
die nicht mehr zurückkehren:
Ich wache auf
und umfange dich.

Jedes Lied ist eine Erzählung
in der es um den grauenvollen Anblick deiner Abwesenheit geht.
Ausgerechnet dann, wenn ich mir vorstelle,
dass du mir gegenüber sitzt
mit deinem vertrauten Lächeln.

Vom Rand Der Welt

Recorded on the relaxed evening of 18th of November, 2024

AID - MEDIA
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to the AID Media Section, hosted by BandPage.

My Hometown, Nelson, BC has been a thriving and creatively progressive small town in the Kootenay region of BC for over 25 years and running, ever growing in popularity. Along with the creative small businesses here that have maintained a competitive edge in the current economy, so has the demand grown for young entrepreneurs, craftspeople and other small business owners in the west Kootenays.

Naturally, growing up in the Kootenays led me to become a strongly independent and creative individual in terms of business and career. My creative ambitions and convictions are very high, but my desires are very few. I made my first mark in the kootenays as a versatile and fluid musician and musical producer. For many years my efforts fell under the name "Collateral Jammage Productions" But now that I've evolved, the name and mission of my work has evolved also.

The word "Articulus" describes a central point that connects other points together. For example, the palm of your hand is an "Articulus" because it connects your fingers together, providing the function of a hand.

My endeavor with Articulus is to create an ever changing, ever living business of creativity, of Music, of Compassion and of Life, and use this as a vehicle to help connect creative people and encourage them to use their creativeness to inspire awareness and positive change in and around their lives. 

When I create or record something, I use no instructions, no patterns, and no guidance other than my heart, ears, mind and hands - and using whatever I have available to me by reusing and modifying items along with natural, quality materials whenever possible. What comes out of it are some beautifully crafted pieces of art that are infused with love, purpose and intentional magic. What comes through you ears is the intention of Love. <3
