Great opening atmospherics. Feels like I'm at a live concert on a large ocean faring barge. :)

I really like Jo's evocative, higher minded poetry. You did a stellar job snapping the lines in for optimal impact. :)

Very nice full 'Departure' text (thanks for including that). Jo has a great creative mind, and this song really shines in supporting that message. :)

risky and original sound.  Fantastically combined with the voice.  It creates a unique atmosphere. 🦩

This track contains  bioelectrical recordings made from colonies of Oyster mushrooms and Wine-cap mushrooms by Michael Allen Z Prime, who kindly allowed me to use them for my music.

I made a few tweaks to the original track suggested at a helpful feedback session, so this is version 2. 

Oyster Cap Tribe Version 2

A playful piece of music around a cat dreaming about its nine lives – and so the song has nine sections. An electric guitar piece – if you like a bit of overdrive on the axe, then this one’s for you!

'Does The Flame Ever Go Out' was a question I asked myself recently whilst sitting in my music studio. This track was the answer to my question.

============

I usually write or comment something on my songs.

When I published this melody I did not. I sit and I felt like the title...guilty, and I didn't feel like doing it.

About two months ago I had an accident with my car. Yes, the one I use as a work tool and to make my music. The car is not important, it is people's lives.

I've been hundreds of thousands of kilometers and it had never happened to me. The sunlight dazzled me, or maybe my polarized glasses...I don't know...but I could only see the car at the last moment.

Fortunately there were no personal injuries, but I was the cause of the accident, albeit unintentionally. I thought about the people who were traveling in the other vehicle and the person who accompanied me. I still feel that although I no longer hear the noise of the blow that followed me for weeks and disturbed my scant sleep or see my airbag burns

I am not writing this for myself, I am doing it to ask you to be as careful as possible when driving a car. It doesn't matter to be late, it matters to arrive. Rest and stop if you need to. If you don't, you may regret it for the rest of your life.

My best wishes to you.

A collaboration between :
Shane Beck, The Last American Poet (Words)
progettosonoro (Music)

Conform to the concept of an eternal love & this infinite wait
If you in fact know of the purity of love then it is never too late
Were you not consumed by the words of the Invisible Flame
By the truth of loves sorrow & the girl who called my name

Beside me breathing in the ocean air responding to my embrace
So you took on the persona of who you really are as I kissed your face
Everything inside you was at peace as the Invisible Flame spoke
This road goes on forever but who was it who left this heart broke

This is the second in the Departure series of experimental soundscapes that are inspired by a set of 13 poems (or 'cantos') written by Jo Richter a.k.a. Sonic Structures and Silent Stretches @sonic-structures. I was honored thatJo invited me to collaborate with him on this project, it has really helped to push me in some new creative directions.

This second track in the series, features field recordings from Zuunzug. He offers them up for download on this page: @zuunzug-field-recording under the Creative Commons license (CC BY 3.0) ... The ones I used are Save Beograd, Novi Sad, and Waves Over Seashells.  I think they add a lot of great atmospheric texture!

The poetry is copyright Jo Richter. I have only extracted a small sample of the original poem, so please read the full text below if you are interested in the original context for the spoken word, also read by Jo Richter.

And you can follow along with this project here. This playlist so far includes one other song (2 different versions) from me and Stonerjazz, based on Canto VI, but we intend to add more in the coming months:

Here is the full text of Departure - Canto II, the inspiration for this track:
(Copyright Jo Richter)

To allow for rest, you need to make sure
that you do not fall asleep right in
harm‘s way. You need to put your trust
in crude projections of the path and thrust
of entities and processes that do not cease
activity when your awareness takes its leave.
There are no guardian spirits to protect
you when consciousness bows out.

When – as a growing child who learns to use
his wits to regulate the forces that en-
compass him – he had to learn to abdicate
his mental skills, his reason and his
social prowess, just to give in to sleep,
he felt the force of dread that did
not hesitate to bring forth monsters from
the cracks that rooms and psyches offer.

Out foraging for all the goods that people,
parks and pastures proffer, he‘d often felt
assailed by sudden drowsiness that swept him
from the inside out into the open street
and very nearly drowned him in the gutter.
The force that urged him cannily to sidestep
reason, did not protect him from approaching cars,
as though it were an arbitrary arbiter of life.

It had been then, in dire need of shelter,
that he had stepped into the cool, comforting
splendour of the spire that reached into
what lays beyond. To master words, he
had been warned, will never do,
if you aspire to tame the threat of
letting go. I‘m here, he‘d said, to enter
a frame of mind, a larger self, a sphere of

actuality that never passes out, even in the
deepest state of slumber, trance or trauma,
even when the archetypes invade
my daily reasoning with brutal presence, as
they do. To master words, his muse replied
with her bemused DaVinci-grin, is quite
amusing, once you find the time to ponder
and to muse about the situation you are in.
