From Bab'Aziz-Le Prince Qui Contemplait Son Ame (2005)

translated poem:

O day, arise
the atoms are dancing
thanks to him the universe is dancing 

The souls are dancing,
overcome with ecstasy 
i'll whisper in your ear where their dance is taking them

All the atoms in the air,
and in the desert know well they seem insane

Every single atom,
happy or miserable

Becomes enamored of the sun,
by which nothing can be said.

Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Rūmī



Poem of the atoms - Armand Amar (Bab Aziz)

Rene Aubry - Salento (koko Remix)

"Oh Sun! Do rise so the atoms dance!
The One who causes the earth and the heavens to dance

Joyful souls, in ecstasy, they dance 
I whisper into your ears where the dance is leading them 

Inside the cell or out in the space
In the wilderness and in the air 
Adore every atom that exists 
Cause they, too, like us 
Are befuddled and amazed

Whether in the state of keen pleasure
Or in the state of deep sorrow
Each atom,
By the ineffable Sun,
Is mystified and perplexed"

Gurdjieff - Reading of a Sacred Book - Prayer and Despair

Through sound, emotion seeks new dimensions, not as an escape from reality but rather in a search for the image of a new reality. Music that creates emotion, is like a wind that purifies, rendering visible all the obstacles and divisions. It is rather like a piercing arrow that alerts the parts of our mind we do not normally go to, in our daily lives. It opens up unknown and obscure landscapes, like a ray of light that filtering into a dark room, banishes the darkness and leaves nothing to hinder vision. 
”Canone degli Spazi” is about the sound that journeys in all directions, the sound that travels through endless space - through the outer world and the inner space - through the unconscious and the senses. 
When I play with precision and with specific intent, the emotion that rises inside of me is the mirror of the one that arises in the person who is listening - it provokes a sense of union and communion with those sharing the same moment. Music becomes a vehicle of an objective feeling, which is almost the same for most people. Similarly, if I am not One with the sound and my intention is not clear, the same notes played carelessly are empty - they lose their power and their intensity. The level of clarity of my expression depends on what I can make arise inside of me. When that happens, the inner nature of the melodies that are being played spreads out into space, into the air, into the earth and out to the whole atmosphere. A real spell takes place between the performer and his public, creating a magical aura of deep harmony and sharing. This is the wonder of a sound that has come from a long time ago, through myths and mythology, and returns us to the essence of Music, that most supreme of Arts. 
I composed “Canone degli Spazi” around essential elements - the harmony of the triads, the melodic repetition and the cycles that follow the orbits of the planets and the structure of harmonics - the very same fundamental rules that Pythagoras followed to make the laws of the Universe coincide. Sound can help us to realize that our inner space is as vast as our outer space and that in reality there is no difference between them. Sound travels through walls - the walls of the mind too – transcending both time and space.

Amon Tobin marches to no one’s beat but his own. In a career spanning over ten years he has been connected to but never belonged to a host of scenes and styles. He has consistently made the music he feels he needs to make, not what other people think he ought to make, always exhibiting a level of attention to sonic detail which makes his music more intensely textured, beautiful and brutal than almost anyone’s out there. 

Make no mistake – 'Stunt Rhythms' is about beats and bass. The model for the album comes from “Fools Rhythm” (included here), one of the standout tracks from Ninja’s 20th anniversary 'XX' boxset, an infectious mixture of playground melody, sharp beat and thunderous bass. 

Although Amon’s love of the lower reaches of low end will undoubtedly cause people to reach for lazy comparisons with dubstep, 'Stunt Rhythms' is in fact more accurately viewed as his love letter to hip hop – less the rampant consumerism of, say, G-Unit’s “Stunt 101” than the early culture of innovation and freshness, of showing off simply that you’re better at what you do than anyone else. So while tracks like “Snap” could be said to literally break down classic hip hop to its constituent components and put them back together in completely new shapes, the more uptempo tracks like “Razorback” come on like a whole new soundtrack for an as-yet-uninvented future pop-locking. If you imagine Mantronix as a Kenworth K100 truck, Two Fingers is what happens when the truck turns into Optimus Prime. 

Uncompromising, muscular and powerful, the music of Two Fingers is also full of subtle touches, humour and a supple sense of rhythm. Which, when you think about it, is just showing off.
