Rhythmic drums and hearts collide,
beneath their tartan’s proud disguise.
Each soldier boy, a child inside,
beholds this dawn with hollowed eyes.
The fetor of fear and peat and sweat,
bleeding under the thunder’s moan.
They steel their hearts, lest they forget,
the men they must become.

In my teens I read all of Carlos Castaneda's books. Carlos penned his philosophies in what is likely a fictitious story of fictitious characters where he teaches shamanism. Whether or not Don Juan was a real person and nagual to Carlos doesn't matter to me, he still shared some amazing truths on existence through his experience and imagination.

When reading the books I listened to one album. Good Gods Urge by Porno for Pyros. It's a very interesting nugget on association and musical memory for me as that album still to this day brings me back to the world of Don Juan whenever I listen to it.

It might not bring you to the land of Don Juan and his buddies but it's an epic album anyways!

I believe Porno for Pyros wrote a lot of it travelling the world for detox!

Thanks Carlos 🤍

The Wheel of Time

The Universe flows all around us
Energies unknown and I'm composed of it
My power rests in the knowledge I hold
Prepare my encounter with infinity old

Nothing is a gift
Know truth the hard way
Go to knowledge like battle
Assured
Wide awake
Know your fear
Respect
Gone the fool
Even suffered defeats
Become life making tool

Find terrible fatigue
If we dwell on the self
We must not be blinded to everything else
Where one energy flows through us all
Be wise through all atoms and let fatigue fall

Let's set to learn
Laboured love for these cells
As we move past the fears of unatural hells
Barriers of brain
Clouding clarity
Come man of true knowledge
Turn wheels of charity

Lose the anger people
Observe and judge clean
Mend this infinite journey from point of esteem
That balance important
My anger is folly
Acknowledge their acts and just project jolly

Does the path have heart?
The choices are millions
At the end is nowhere
But the walk is fulfilling
We bring change without fear or ambition
To the wheel of time
End warrior transmission

F430-Solide (Kapteyn Remix)

This is something I've had in mind for a while, and was planning to put it out for Halloween, but I'm really slow.  It's a macabre spoken word thing about a travelling circus that's a little 'off' in dark and unsettling ways that you can't quite put your finger on. Originally I thought it would sound good as an old timey Delta Blues with acoustic guitar accompaniment. But since I can't play, I enlisted the help of a fellow Soundcloud artist whose music I admire, Remnant60 (@remnant60). It just so happened Bill had previously posted a guitar track that he left open for collaboration. I downloaded his track, but it was left on the shelf for a while, until this came along, and I thought it was a perfect fit. 
It kind of borders on the edge of creepy cool and just hokey. But it's a fun bit of storytelling, and I'm grateful to Remnant60 for letting me tinker with his wicked slide guitar track. 
I strongly recommend listening to this with headphones for the full effect. 
Hope you dig it!

LYRICS
A travelling circus creaked into our little town
They set up in Duggart’s field by the old burying ground
A ramshackle lot ‘neath the moonlight’s glare
With their trinkets and their theatre, put on an evening affair

Chorus
From village to village and from town to town
When the circus came they put their stakes deep in the ground
They promised spectacle, laughter and mirth
The travelling circus, the greatest show on Earth

Inside the big top it was crowded and hot
Everyone was kept waiting whether they wanted or not
Something in the tent corner was circled by flies
And I noticed a bruise under the flower girl’s eye

(Chorus)

The horses were skittish when they caught sight of a whip
And a big toothy grin was painted over the clown’s lips
The ringmaster never looks you quite straight in the eye
From the moment you enter he starts waving goodbye

(Chorus)

Travelling Circus (collab with Remnant60)

Thank you very much for always paying attention to my track and taking the time to do so.  
I am always grateful.
Distorted space. 
If you were to open the door to the space you desired and step inside, what would you see? 
Light, darkness, your imagination. Would you want to return? 
Or move forward? Which would it be?
Life is an endless staircase.Each of us climbs, sometimes in doubt, sometimes in faith never looking down, only moving upward toward the light.In every step lies the quiet meaning of existence.“Infinite” is a tribute to the soul that keeps ascending.
A cinematic and philosophical soundscape,reflecting the light that lives beyond the clouds 
and within us all.

※Which moment from your past does this song remind you of?’

※I feel like I'm searching for someone.
This song is my innermost feelings set to music.

The morning sunrise brings a light to my eyes
Chases all the shadows from
The corners of my mind

Good things come to those who wait
Wait a minute, I’m hanging up the phone
I’m hanging up

My evening drive stuck in a line going nowhere
Feel frustrated, hoping I might 
Make up some lost time

You say what’s good for you is good for me
But that aint good for me

The day just drags on
How can hours be so long?
Time just moves so slow when I’d rather be somewhere

A worship anthem declaring that even when we can’t see the road ahead, He is still making a way. Rooted in Psalm 37:7–9, this powerful and uplifting praise song reminds us to trust, pray, and move when God says go.
