THE MANDALORIAN THEME TRAP REMIX

Part I

He always comes at night
The man without a face

If you fear him, 
show him a mirror 
so he won't take your soul

Nothing can stop you  
If he won't let you sleep. 
Show him a mirror 
So he won't take your soul

Nothing can stop you  
If he doesnt let you rest
Show him a mirror 
So he won't take your soul

He always comes at night
The man without a face

If you fear him, 
show him a mirror 
so he won't take your soul

Nothing can stop you  
If he won't let you sleep. 
Show him a mirror 
So he won't take your soul

Nothing can stop you  
If he doesnt let you rest
Show him a mirror 
So he won't take your soul

He always comes at night
The man without a face

If you fear him, 
show him a mirror 
so he won't take your soul

Nothing can stop you  
If he won't let you sleep. 
Show him a mirror 
So he won't take your soul

Part II

If the man without a face 
returns in your nightmare, 
show him no weakness.

Nothing can stop you 
Do it again and again.

If he takes away your sleep again, 
meet him with courage

Nothing can stop you 
Do it again and again.

If the demons 
torture you again 
show them no pain

Nothing can stop you 
Do it again and again.

If you want 
to calm your mind 
do right 

Nothing can stop you 
Do it again and again.






















Part III

He’s just an evil demon inside you.
The man without a face 
He’s just an evil demon inside you.
The man without a face 
He’s just an evil demon inside you.
The man without a face 

This nightmare 
is just an illusion, 
nothing is real.

He’s just an evil demon inside you.
The man without a face 
Nothing is real.
He’s just an evil demon inside you.
The man without a face 
Nothing is real.
He’s just an evil demon inside you.
The man without a face 
  
Nothing is real.
This nightmare 
is just an illusion, 
Nothing is real.
It's your soul 
that tortures you.

He’s just an evil demon inside you.
The man without a face 
He’s just an evil demon inside you.
The man without a face 
He’s just an evil demon inside you.
The man without a face

Rust on the Gates of Heaven

"Atoms" 
The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara
Music Composition: Andrea Papi
Lyrics & Vocals: Daphne Ang
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
"Atoms", tells the story of the creation of the universe to the fall of civilisation. It deals with the existential questions surrounding mankind’s purpose and place in the world. The lyrics combines original written material, with extracts adapted from religious and mythological texts (The Rigveda, The Bible, Corpus Hermeticum, The Mystery of Amergin), canonical texts such as Inferno by Dante, Phaedo by Plato, and the works of William Blake, William Morris and Ernst Niekisch.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Lyrics

In the beginning,
There was darkness 
A formless blackness,
Amorphous, atonal, discordant, disharmonious
The Prima Materia
A primordial pool of death decay, life and birth, 
Suspended in a timeless continuum, 
The spiralling substrate of the anonymous, the absolute 
For nothing came before the movement of God over these waters

Form and matter joined
A ray shines with no pause, 
From its coming to its being
Order was created, 
Order was constructed,
And in the purest of acts,
The summit of the universe was created

I am in heaven and on earth, 
In water and in the air,
I lead forth the roaring waters,
I am the wind that shapes the mountains,
I am both cloud and rain,
The wave of the ocean, the beam of the sun
I am the animals and the plants,
The babe in the womb,
The one born, and the one yet to be conceived
I am present, everywhere
I am the flesh and soul of man,
The Mother and the Father
I am the pain of the sick,
The heart of saints,
And the will of sinners

The machine is the achievement of which man is capable 
If he relies entirely on himself, 
God is no longer needed
Eventually, it transforms him into a machine himself

When nation grows old, 
The arts grow cold, 
And commerce settles on every tree

It is the enterprise of industrial civilisation that modern wars have arisen, 
And will arise
It is on the same impoverished soil, that empires have grown,
And by the same greed that many civilisations have been destroyed

The body, for the sake of which we desire wealth, 
Is the ultimate cause of all wars

If we are to progress, 
We must not cease from mental fight till we have built Jerusalem

I have no more faith than a grain of mustard seed in the future history of civilisation, 
Which i know now, is doomed to destruction
What a joy it is to think of!

O good beginning, to what vile ending must you fall!

And in the end, 
There was darkness
A formless blackness,
Amorphous, atonal, discordant, disharmonious 
The Negredo
Death decay, life and birth,
A timeless continuum

"Psychopath’s Monologue"
The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara
Music Composition: Andrea Papi
Lyrics & Vocals: Daphne Ang

Inspired by Dante’s Inferno, “Psychopath’s Monologue” charts the path of damnation – from purgatory to the depths of hell. The track fleets between the harsh and the heavenly, the brutal and the beautiful - Grinding metal guitar and baselines layered over pounding industrial techno kicks encases the theatrical spoken-lyrics delivered as an elegiac monologue. 

The composition is an assemblage of 7 sonnet poems written over a 10 year period. The work assimilates ancient imagery with the contemporary. While the meaning of the lyrics is often abstracted and cryptic, its delivery is always awash with emotion.

“‘Psychopath's Monologue” is  the second single of The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara (TCOMAS). The track forms part of the independently produced album ‘Full Spectrum'.

Psychopath's Monologue

The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara
"Deus Ex Machina"
Music Composition: Andrea Papi
Lyrics & Vocals: Daphne Ang

Deus Ex Machina is an arresting sonic and theatrical experience of man’s perennial struggle between fate and free will. Charged with both pathos and ethos, the song is a musical revisitation of classical literature’s greatest tragedy – the story of Oedipus Rex.

"Deus Ex Machina" tells the story of King Oedipus of Thebes, who despite all his efforts, ends up fulfilling the prophecy he was trying so hard to avoid: that he would kill his father and marry his mother.

Inspired by the sonnets of Shakespeare and the lyrical poetry of Ancient Greece, the lyrics tells the story of Oedipus Rex – a play by Sophocles written over two thousand years ago. The song is chanted and recited over the music much like in the chorus in Greek tragedy.

Released worldwide on September 18, 2020, "DEUS EX MACHINA" is the third single of The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara. The track forms part of the independently produced album ‘Full Spectrum'. 

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Lyrics 

On the path of peril, the blind king staggers away
All he can see is darkness like a shroud
Groping through mist and cloud, the devil his only friend
Doomed is he to find release only at his end

Cursed is he who incurs the wrath of envious gods
Woe is he, he who walks alone on the road to ruin
Woe is he, whose fate is abandoned to the wind
Woe is he, the end too dread to tell, too dark to see

Trial is the test of man
Hubris will be his fall
Fate is the curse of man
In god’s envy, tragedy befalls

Hamartia is the flaw of man
Hubris be his downfall
Trial is the test of man,
But death befalls us all

Oh cursed Oedipus, 
Pursued by the hounds of fate
For slaying and laying with kindred, 
You took out both your eyes

All your sins laid bare
Your shame you alone will wear
So you go away without a guide
A vagrant with no sight

Oh cursed Oedipus, 
Hallowed be thy pain
A blind man wandering across the land
Never to be seen again 

Oh cursed Oedipus, 
Hallowed be thy shame
Architect of his own tragedy
So vanished he, into a shoreless sea 

Trial is the test of man
Hubris be his fall
Fate is the curse of man
In god’s envy, tragedy befalls

Hamartia is the flaw of man
Hubris be his downfall
Trial is the test of man,
And death will end it all

"Mata Hari"
The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara
Music Composition: Andrea Papi
Lyrics & Vocals: Daphne Ang

Mata Hari (meaning "sun" in Malay) reimagines the sound of the 80s in the year 2080. The song is told through the eyes of an artist, who creates a painting as a declaration of love and as a testament to the intensity of emotions and feelings (for another) when words and actions were inadequate.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Released on October 16, 2020, “Mata Hari” is the fourth single of The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara (TCOMAS). The track forms part of the independently produced album ‘Full Spectrum'.

Lyrics

So you said to do it for feelings
Feelings for you
So I decided to put it to the test
In the way I know best

It was catharsis
A spectacle
A supernova
Paint drops like teardrops
Falling rain on a November’s day
My heart cries out
My soul implodes
A violent meeting of sea and stars on stretched linen
I have made a mess
But oh what a glorious mess

Mata Hari
Pagi Bintang
With you I burn so bright
Incandescent light
You and me
We will become
The brightest stars in the sky

Mata Hari
Hati Saya
Deep and precious are the experiences we share
The mundane, the sublime
All of time, intertwined

You bring out the best in me
And the rest of me
You have the best of me
Take the rest of me

Take the rest of me
Take the rest of me
Take the rest of me
The best of me

Mata Hari
Pagi Bintang
With you I burn so bright
Incandescent light
You and me
We will become
The brightest stars in the sky

Mata Hari
Hati Saya
With you I burn so bright
Ablaze like stellar light
You and me together we are
The brightest stars in the sky
The brightest stars in the sky
For all of time, intertwined
All the time
Together, entwined

"The Descent"
Music Composition: Andrea Papi
Lyrics & Vocals: Daphne Ang

‘The Descent’ presents a theatrical experience of the awe-inspiring, impetuous, almost frightening, beauty of nature. It is narrated by the voice of Mother Nature herself, who recites an ominous monologue warning us of an imminent disaster.

The song offers a glimpse into the psyche and essence of Mother Nature and her duality – who is both at once Gaia – the gentlest mother, who at her bosom feeds plants and all things living, and Mother Nature – the great equaliser, the wrathful goddess Kali, she who is the source of all of Earth’s calamities. 

Hypnotic, meditative, and bittersweet, ‘The Descent’ seeks to evoke an experience of the purity and beauty of Mother Nature and how quickly she can turn into a wild and destructive force, bringing death and desolation to all who stand in her path. 

'The Descent' by The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara, was released worldwide on November 6, 2020.

🎵 'The Descent' - Lyrics

Why won't you and I escape from this gilded age,
Away from this crumbling world
We can sail away on the seven seas,
On a porcelain ship, with satin sails, on seas of mercury

We will coax the monsters out from their deepest trenches 
To meet Surya's warm rays
We will relive the purity and innocence before the Fall of man

In our utopia, 
we will make a nest of fresh grass and lace,
And spend endless nights solving the mysteries of the Arnolfini portrait

We will never experience apathy, ennui, nor despair
We will be far from the scourge of disease,
And grow forbidden fruit from a tree,
And eat from it without fear or guilt 
Each day will have the glory of all four seasons

Everything will be sublime,
Every day will be divine 
It is only a universe away
Just you and me

We can live as immortals, 
Forever nubile, 
Forever fertile,
Your flesh in mine 

Won't you come with me
Only if you want to

When the jarring silence confronts you, 
Reply with a melodious, well-strung haiku
When faced with nothing but shards and smithereens of a flawed existence
A glorious train wreck on her maiden voyage to a phantom promise land

Detesting the white light of truth,
Its unflattering glare, 
Leaving nothing bare,
Penetrating the thickest smog of ignorance

Gasping for air as your flounder and flail
Your face pressed against a glass ceiling
Silence,
White light,
Greatest nemesis

What we need is a baptism of fire,
A tabula rasa
Fertile soils to sow the seeds of a new world
But will we emerge scarred or unscathed

Huddle with me
In a foetal gnarl 
How cathartic it must be
Toba has awaken

All is white-hot,
All is chaos
Happy now, 
They put down their shotguns and bibles

Indeed, purgatory is at our doorsteps
One thousand years of darkness
Finally, the long-awaited rapture has arrived,
Sucking the self-righteous into its clouds.

But not you, not me
I’d like us to be left behind on this godforsaken wasteland,
To witness the apocalypse
Climbing trees, to have a glimpse of the world,
Crumbling, nevertheless

"Love In The Time Of Pestilence"
Music Composition: Andrea Papi
Lyrics & Vocals: Daphne Ang

‘Love in the Time of Pestilence’ is an experimental metal track that reflects upon the events of the ongoing pandemic and global crisis. Composed and recorded during the outbreak of the first wave of Covid-19 in Europe, the amplitude waveform view of this track, with its peaks and troughs, is in itself a visualisation of the evolution and progression of the pandemic over the course of the year 2020.

The spoken lyrics combine original writings with historical quotes in order to remind humanity that if we don’t learn from history, we are doomed to repeat it. The artists chose to release this track as Europe goes into a second Lockdown. It is an appeal to humanity and an emergency broadcast to mankind at a critical moment in the current crisis.

The accompanying music video is a tribute and homage to all the healthcare professionals around the world who have risked their own lives to save the lives of others. The video documents mankind’s experience of plagues and pandemics over the millennia. This is presented through a corpus of art historical works, archival photographs, and film footage. Featured prominently in this selection are works from the Wellcome Collection, London. [https://wellcomecollection.org/works]

“At The Worlds End” is a progressive metal song that imagines the world in the end times in order to raise awareness on the effects of mankind on our planet's environment. The song is told through the eyes of two lovers, who exchange a final declaration of love in a post-apocalyptic elegy, on the last day on earth. Mournful yet resolute, the lovers’ final parting valediction also offers a glimpse of a possible future, and the hope of a new world, when they pledge to meet each other again, “where it all began, at The Worlds End".

My Life had stood - a Loaded Gun -
In Corners - till a Day
The Owner passed - identified -
And carried Me away -

And now We roam in Sovreign Woods -
And now We hunt the Doe -
And every time I speak for Him
The Mountains straight reply -

And do I smile, such cordial light
Opon the Valley glow -
It is as a Vesuvian face
Had let it’s pleasure through -

And when at Night - Our good Day done -
I guard My Master’s Head -
’Tis better than the Eider Duck’s
Deep Pillow - to have shared -

To foe of His - I’m deadly foe -
None stir the second time -
On whom I lay a Yellow Eye -
Or an emphatic Thumb -

Though I than He - may longer live
He longer must - than I -
For I have but the power to kill,
Without - the power to die -

My Life had stood a Loaded Gun

From my Instagram (justmusicep)

“The burden of life isn’t to live but to bear and carry it.”
I virtually paraphrased this lyric from @jordan.b.peterson - “The purpose of life is finding the largest burden that you can and bearing it.” This quote resonated with me, because ‘life is pain’ (@rickandmorty ) ... and while ‘I don’t know what it feels like’ for people who really suffer from mental health things, my heart goes out to them. I know people close to me that have struggled and will continue, too. I’ve always had that the thought that ‘attitude’ determines ‘altitude’, and this is true in every extent - but humans are weak, and when you’re dealt a s**t hand from the onset - the altitude doesn’t always seem worth climbing.

It’s worth it, though. The grass is greener when you water it.

Hope you enjoy have a blessed year.

Lyrics:

I don't know what it feels like. Medals and spades -
honoring their goodbyes while digging a grave.
One has to wonder what weight they'll burden
while they're trenching themselves in a place that's foreign.

You feel the weight and it's brought you to your knees.
You feel the weight of something you would never believe.
Something of monumental value -
you don't want this truth to take ahold of you.

I don't know what it feels like.
I don't know what it feels like...

Your heart is coming up for air when you've been drowning in the stares from your peers.
They'll know in time. You need to heal to find some peace amongst the chaos in your life.
It's so foreign...
You'll find direction in your heart to guide you further to your final destination.

The burden of life isn't to live, but to bear and carry it. 
So carry it we will, and will it to its end.
So let yourself be still so you can breathe it in.

Your heart is coming up for air when you've been drowning in the stares from your peers.
They'll know in time. You need to heal to find some peace amongst the chaos in your life.
It's so foreign (compared to where you've been.)
You'll find direction in your heart to guide you further to your final destination.

It's so foreign.

No More Singing Lullabies (demo)

AFFKT delivers a new and special chapter of the timeless Sincopat catalogue, proving once again the affair of the Spanish artist with futurism and darkness sound, the label Big Kahuna presents four killer tracks plus a superb remix by Frenchman Damon Jee.
Fanfarra is a mind-blowing journey across melodies and industrial sound that show the most rebellious side of AFFKT. This organic and strong electronic music piece comes remixed by the also powerful Damon Jee, who takes the track to his desk and offers a remarkable and emotional breakdown. AFFKT's Crocanti Trilogy of crispy minimalism comes to an end with Orange Crocanti, another dance-floor beast that growls with his sharp synths. Swipe is probably the most reflexive track of the EP, but at the same time, is looking forward and leading us to think about the uncertain future. The last but not least, is the secret weapon of Discolo, another exquisite and massive track that draws the complex and rich sound world of the artist. Enjoy!

Tracklist: 
1. Fanfarra

3. Orange Crocanti
4. Swipe
5. Discolo

New Album • Out Now
Listen: https://ffm.to/origins-album

Origins, the third album by The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara, is out now.

The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara (TCOMAS), a UK-based duo featuring Daphne Ang (Singapore) and Andrea Papi (Italy), emerged in London in early 2020. Their debut album, Full Spectrum, established their innovative fusion of poetry performance and heavy music, creating a unique form of expression that has become synonymous with TCOMAS.
TCOMAS's sophomore album, Trust No Leaders, released on July 1, 2022, explores the history of metal, paying tribute to various subgenres. Set against orchestral and cinematic landscapes, the songs also incorporate non-Western musical influences. The lyrics draw inspiration from contemporary and classical poetry, as well as Jungian psychology.
