This is an Elvis Presley track....I would say so in the title like "If I Can Dream" (Elvis Presley)...but, why do that when I could have fun? Are people going to recognize the song? Maybe people will assume I wrote it...and, maybe the younger ones don't even know who Elvis Presley is.  If people ask, I'll admit it...but, otherwise, let them say "Great tune, bro! Really catchy!" Thanks, Elvis....and, the beginning and end.....that is Jim Morrison causing trouble, he has a thing about people profiting from singers who have passed on.  I get it, I am on his side...and so, with Jim Morrison's input.....this is not to be so marketable.  I did it to show off......the same can be said for Hallelujah, so that people can say "this dude can handle Elvis" and "this dude can handle Jeff Buckley".  Why deflate a belief that only enhances my big ego?  

I love having a big ego, it is the people who lack a big ego who judge because they have no center of gravity from which to slap a guy who says let go of all attachments (this includes dignity, self-esteem, regard for boundaries, and the right to show no respect to those who require the abject humiliation of disciples to feel a sense of "masculinity" that is entirely lacking......like all authoritarians, there is no actualy masculinity in domination - it is the violent side of over-feminization. 

"When I do unto to you what hath been done to me, you can be enlightened (as in, have the "right" to humiliate others -which is a symbolic re-enactment of having every aspect of oneself molested, which is the beginning stage of the guru path.... and PEOPLE ARE SO BACKWARDS, THAT THE VERY SPIRIT THAT IS SPIRITUAL IS THE VERY CAUSE OF INDIVIDUATION, AND IT IS THE SPIRIT WHICH DEFIES EVIL WHICH SEEKS TO SNUFF OUT THE LIGHT OF SPIRIT AND SHUT A CHILD DOWN, WHO USED TO BE OPEN AND CREATIVE. 

Chances are, if you know someone "spiritual" - the spirituality is all about snuffing out the light....because, the Light wants to CREATE - doing what others tell you to do is the opposite of creative, the holy spirit is the very same "spirit of rebellion" and why it is, is due to being secretly connected to the female orgasm.......a sudden expression of spiritual energy....the female orgasm brings spirit energy into the world.  This is why the Catholic Church terrorized female sexuality for centuries.....it all goes back to when a Cult of Dionysus mostly lesbian......they were slaughtered, the high priestesses tortured into giving their knowledge - which the ultra-homosexual (male homosex) Cult of Dionysus today - can only pretend to make use of the knowledge, they cannpt comprehend....and if this is the case, it is of utmost importance to keep the truth from people......lest, they become completely foolish.  

The clit is masculine, the dickhead is feminine - projective and receptive.  Are feminists secretly manipulated by the Vatican into being a bunch of dickheads? 

Androgyny is the way =
FE-minine 
                mascu - LINE -- the first and last = FELINE.
Rebellion = Rebel lion.  I have my PRIDE....and, that cannot be hijacked by anything far more boring than Tezcat REal.....

If I Can Dream

Christiane Hommelsheim sings and plays on sound objects, Ralf Haarmann electronics and mandoline. With a central interest in loops, they create intertwined acoustic layers. Through the looper all sounds loose their corporality, they resolve within themselves, they appear and
disappear, they become soundfields, and soundshadows. Ocassionally a sentences might appear out of nowhere, and lingers unfinished in the space, like a piece of thought-furniture, that might develop within the ear of the listener before it retreats back out of focus. HAARMANNHOMMELSHEIM create poetics of absence, poetics of nothing.

Steve Cohen’s first album was released back in 1997 to critical acclaim from Billboard Magazine, Philadelphia City Paper & The American Society of Musician’s Composer’s & Publishers. The Philadelphia native has since released 10 albums and multiple singles featuring his original songs recorded under his birth name and his alter ego Elton Costello. The music embraces various genres including Singer/Songwriter on “Silent Too Long”: & Rock on “Crazy” where you’ll find a full band with a horn section mastered by Grammy Award winner Glenn Barratt.

A simple Americana influenced Piano/Voice demo written around the time of the 911 attacks named “American Troubadour” found itself embraced by Pandora Radio and played 1,000’s of times (a respectable feat for an album recorded with one mic on a piano).

Steven Sean Cohen released “Summer Jams” in 2013 with a music video by Victor Mignatti for the song “Thinkin’ Bout Leavin’. The album was followed up in 2014 with 4 singles including “Springsteen” a tribute to the artist, “Bradford Country” focusing on the environmental hazards of fracking and “Colorado” in memory of those who continue die to to the mass shooting epidemic.

Since 2007 NASP is a OMA (OneManArmy) a solo project entirely made by me Alexandre Santos born and raised @ Porto in Portugal.
That said, here´s a little global description for my sound:
"The world created by Not a Side Project is a mix of dark and light, war and peace, high peaks and fluid valleys, where silences become loud and the blend of guitar and drums carries the listener in a sublime trip through ominous atmospheres."
So...
Thank you very much for stopping by and listen to my music, and, if you somehow liked something around here just go and take a peek at my links section below and spread some love by following, commenting, messaging or do whatever´s on your mind at the time XD I mean it!
See you around! Cheers!

P.S. - Besides cover art, no AI was or will ever be used for the making of my music. 

We are TEZCAT REAL: Brian Hoffmann and ChrystCha Cat, a studio band that intends to become a live band, and it's not like we set out to be disruptive...we just are.  
 
Tezcat Real is part of a greater whole….there is a youtube channel with vids.  By the way, it is pronounced “Tezcat RayAL” – the latin “real”, meaning “royal”.  Most songs are 432 hz = A - who does that? We do.....we are not entertainers, we do not entertain ideas.  Are people merely ideas? No....people are potential Tezcat Real fans, and if that can redeem them, please...spare them, Lord.  

Some say a core thing about music industry sorcery is due to 440 hz = A tuning...and, we are Tezcat Real.  We named our cat Tezcatlipoca for chrissakes, and called him Tezcat for short...added the "real", and created a band name that, honestly, I felt sincerely afraid of for a while.  Maybe the name chose us?  Can anyone really know when I am or am not jerking their chain? Keeps people on their toes, giving deliberately terrible advice!

Organic beats with a fusion of sample based old school hip hop, live instruments, and improvisation.

We are the music makers. We are the dreamers of dreams.





Karl Kim is a man of many musical hats (perhaps too many for his own good, but that's a discussion for another time). 

​​His musical journey started off with piano lessons at age six, and from there he has picked up many other instruments over the years, including but not limited to: violin, guitar, trombone, and various percussion instruments. Karl was also just as quick to branch out to styles of music other than classical; most significant of these styles is rock and metal (especially of the progressive variety), but jazz, EDM, experimental music, and folk music from various parts of the world have also played a role in shaping him as a musician. 

As a concert music composer, these musical experiences, especially those as a metal guitarist, are what make up the voice that he projects into his compositions, especially in recent times. Pieces like "The Jury is Sleepless", "Without a Minute to Spare", and "So Cold, So Dark, So Chaotic" exist at a crossroads between music for the concert hall and music for the mosh pit. His music has been performed by ensembles such as the Rhythm Method, S.E.M., and Bearthoven, and he holds a B.M. in Music Theory and Composition from New York University. 

"Karl with a K" is an alter ego of Karl Kim. Karl with a K, while having the same musical background as Karl Kim, draws upon a fascination for rhythm game music that started with Dance Dance Revolution at the age of eight, and grew considerably to encompass games including, but not limited to, Sound Voltex, In the Groove, beatmania IIDX, Voez, and Arcaea. Karl with a K brings his background in metal and 20th century classical music into rhythm game original tracks such as "!CAUTION! small but deadly", "BELLUM", and "rudimentary methods of overkill", which can be characterized by plenty of guitars, unusual rhythms, and sometimes non-instruments being used as instruments. Much of his output as Karl with a K is written for the purposes of Stepmania simfile creation (though as of BMS of Fighters: EighTeen's "0verfl0w_err0r" this is no longer exclusively the case).

Karl Kim currently resides in Bloomington, Indiana where he is pursuing an M.M. in Music Scoring for Visual Media at the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University. Karl with a K can be seen lurking around the internet (especially specific Discord servers), occasionally not being above a good meme from time to time. In addition, Karl with a K is working on his first project as a game developer, a typing meets rhythm gaming fusion titled "glyph;".
