EMULSION DE TENEBRES.

Another first-timer: We'd been working on this for a while, but didn't have proper lyrics yet. At this gig in Freiburg we gave it an improvised try for the first time in public. I was sort of mumbling and improvising lyrics on the spot and the overall arrangement was pretty loose... but hey, we had fun! Jeff on vibraphone and Hammond, Stuart on drums, Raymond on bass. The recording was done on cassette tape through one mike, hence the lack of sound quality... I also should add that this is from 1973 - more than half a century ago!

Ju Ju Man (ODIN original live)

Those silly topsy turvy lyrics used before (https://soundcloud.com/api_zz/silly-world) inspired a second ambient /dreamy performance. Hear the results ... 

dreams in the sky

This is another song among many that was entirely inspired by my dear friend @DJShAnkAri, who sent me some powerful texts about men and women, Mars and Venus, the Sun and the Moon, and how all of those energies shape our lives. 

What struck me in our conversation was the idea that the universe itself doesn’t treat these forces symmetrically — Mars and Venus, Sun and Moon — they’re not equal, but complementary. And somewhere along the way, society twisted that balance. Feminism, education, work, money, media — all these forces have changed the way families, children, and relationships grow. The home that used to raise us has been replaced in many ways by systems and screens, and the question remains: who’s really shaping the next generation? 

This song isn’t about attacking or blaming, it’s about reflecting. It’s about looking at the way we’ve lost rhythm between masculine and feminine, and how that imbalance affects every part of our world. It’s melancholic, almost mournful at times, but it also carries a thread of hope — that we can remember collaboration, not competition, is what was always meant. 

In essence, it’s a song about cosmic truths and earthly consequences, sparked by one late-night conversation with ShAnkAri who saw right through the illusion.


LYRICS: 

[Intro]
We all got stars in our ancient skies...
But someone redrew the map —
and left us looking for home.

[Verse 1]
We all got Mars, we all got Venus
But they don’t play fair — not between us
Sun stands still, Moon pulls tides
But they flipped the script, split the sides

They sold us power dressed in chains
Painted freedom on paper planes
And now we fly but never land
No roots, no touch, no guiding hand

[Pre-Chorus]
They said we’re equal, they said we’re the same
But sameness don’t ease the flame
They broke the circle and called it a plan
But forgot what it means to be woman… or man

[Chorus]
Who raised the sky if not the Moon?
Who held the day while men chased noon?
It’s not about chains or being above —
It’s about rhythm, respect, and love
You can’t trade soul for salary
And call that being free

[Verse 2]
Venus used to whisper in garden shade
Now she clocks in, wears heels she hates
Mars still rages, unchecked and proud
While little boys drown in a faceless crowd

No mama home, no hand to hold
Just a system cold and stories sold
The kid learns fast not to cry or care
Just stand in line, say the right prayer

[Pre-Chorus]
They called it progress — a brighter day
But they dimmed the stars along the way
And now the child trusts the screen
More than love, more than dream

[Chorus]
Who raised the sky if not the Moon?
Who held the day while men chased noon?
It’s not about chains or being above —
It’s about rhythm, respect, and love
You can’t trade soul for salary
And call that being free

[Verse 3]
Feminism in a banker’s breath
Used to sell the myth of depth
They said "empower," but meant "extract"
Took our womb, sold it back

Took the hearth, called it small
Built a tower and watched us fall
And now girlhood’s a brand, a race
Worn-out dreams on a made-up face

[Bridge]
Olympe wrote with a bleeding pen
But who rewrites the truth again?
De Beauvoir saw fire in the cage
But who profits now from that rage?
It’s not a war — it's conversation
Not control, but co-creation

[Chorus]
Who raised the sky if not the Moon?
Who held the day while men chased noon?
It’s not about chains or being above —
It’s about rhythm, respect, and love
You can’t trade soul for salary
And call that being free

[Final Chorus]
Who raised the sky if not the Moon?
Who sang the stars their mother’s tune?
It’s not a fight — it’s symphony
We need her roots, not just her wings

[Outro]
Sun and Moon… Mars and Venus…
They were never enemies — just dancers.
But we sold the rhythm for reason...
And now we’re all out of time.

📜 Full Lyrics

Intro 
I close my eyes in the noise,
the city breathes in broken code,
I am a fragment of shadow,
a dream that refuses to dissolve.

Verse 1
My veins are neon rivers,
running backwards through forgotten skies,
the clock melts like silver skin,
I dance with echoes that never die.

Every step is a rebellion,
every silence, a scream inside,
I carve graffiti on the night,
letters of fire, wings denied.

Chorus 
Bass like thunder in my chest,
darkness calling, no more rest.
Rap of chaos, house of pain,
love and anger flow the same.

Verse 2
I spit words like broken glass,
cutting mirrors, shattering masks.
I touch the void, I kiss the wound,
I turn my scars into the sound.

The dancefloor whispers prophecy,
truth in shadows, lies set free.
My heart is glitch, my mind’s a flame,
a paradox I cannot tame.

Bridge 
Soy ceniza que camina,
soy un mar que nunca acaba,
soy un grito en la penumbra,
soy un beso con espada.

I am silence wrapped in rage,
I’m the actor and the stage,
voices fracture, time dissolves,
music burns but never solves.

Verse 3
Under the strobe I see ghosts,
dancing barefoot on shattered glass.
They whisper: freedom is a lie,
yet they keep moving, fast, so fast.

I breathe smoke,
I breathe neon,
I breathe the fear of not belonging.
But the bass forgives,
the bass transforms,
it takes my wounds and makes them storms.

Chorus 
Bass like thunder in my chest,
darkness calling, no more rest.
Rap of chaos, house of pain,
love and anger flow the same.

Outro 
The night devours my name,
but I still sing,
I still burn,
I still dance.
In the ruins of tomorrow,
I am eternal,
I am rhythm,
I am the shadow’s romance.

BASS LIKE THUNDER IN MY CHEST ⚡ | Dark Tech House x Rap Fusion | Full-Length Surreal Anthem

An electronic dance track inspired by technology and various genres of music. 

VCR Head

🎧 The New Of The Tower
Welcome to a new, underground, dark world...

🎭 Musical Style & Artistic Evolution

🚀 Avant-Garde Dance Music Without Borders
The New Of The Tower is an independent, self-taught project that fearlessly pushes the limits of dance music with a unique fusion of genres. Officially described as a mix of dark techno, tech-house, electro, and experimental pop, it also incorporates elements of trap, punk, and even classical music.

In practice, each track oscillates between club anthems and conceptual sonic experiences. For instance, “Velvet Guillotine” (2025) is a hypnotic techno hymn built on heavy percussion and distorted vocals—a true “surreal sonic ritual” under neon lights.

The sound is always matched by a cinematic, underground aesthetic: strobe lights, cyberpunk visuals, and immersive atmospheres define every release.

🌍 Eclectic Influences & Genre Alchemy

The New Of The Tower draws from a wide range of sonic traditions:

🏴‍☠️ Dark techno and industrial groove infused with gothic textures and anarchic punk (e.g., “BRUTAL!!” — a chaotic journey of distortion and rebellion).

🌍 Afro-Tech House meets rock guitars à la AC/DC in “Love Letters” (124–126 BPM).

👺 “Masquerade of Bass” blends melodic techno, dark psytrance, and retro synth-pop.

💃 Spanish-language tracks like “Marionetas” and “Vidas Rotas” fuse flamenco sorrow with trap beats and deep 808s.

🎷 “2:59 AM” evokes Amy Winehouse-inspired jazzy cloud-rap, while “She Danced Through Storms” travels through deep house and jazz fusion with a cinematic touch.

🧊 “Still Echoing” merges melodic trance with nostalgic 80s synth-pop.

🧬 Each track is a bold cross-genre experiment: from industrial club bangers to dark electronic ballads, always rich in texture and emotion.

🎛️ Sonic Palette: Instruments & Effects

🎹 Synths & Melodies
Analog pads & leads (often vocoder-enhanced) create retrofuturistic atmospheres.
Punk-style distorted guitars and 80s synthwave textures bring cinematic depth.

🥁 Percussion & Rhythms
Hard techno kicks, metallic hi-hats, tribal drums, and trap-style 808s.
Layered acoustic and electronic elements make for dynamic and precise beats.

🌀 FX & Processing
Rich in glitchy clips, VHS noise, deep delays, and reverb-soaked vocals.

Examples: “Love Letters” is drenched in lo-fi and VHS textures; “4 Malos Polvos” features glitchy ambient layers and emotional auto-tune.

🎨 Each sound is carefully crafted to contribute to a vivid, cinematic soundscape.

🎤 Vocal Treatments: A Sonic Chameleon

Vocals range from:
🎙️ Melodic singing (English & Spanish)
🔥 Punk shouting & spoken rap
🤖 Vocoded retro textures (“Still Echoing”)
💔 Melancholic auto-tuned lines (“4 Malos Polvos”)
💣 Confessional, emotionally intense deliveries
🗣️ The voice becomes another instrument of emotion, soaked in effects like reverb, delay, filters—ranging from ghostly whispers to ecstatic screams.

🌑 Emotional Climate & Storytelling

The overall emotional tone is dark, introspective, and visceral.

Themes revolve around:
💘 Passion, heartbreak, rebellion
🧠 Subconscious states & urban alienation
🕯️ Ritualistic, trance-like experiences (e.g., “Velvet Guillotine”)
🌆 Social suffering (“Marionetas”, “Vidas Rotas”)
😈 Raw eroticism & shame (“4 Malos Polvos”: “each drop is a stab disguised as a caress”)
🎞️ Romantic melancholy in cinematic settings (“2:59 AM”, “She Danced Through Storms”)
🎬 Each track unfolds like an emotional chapter, offering catharsis, vulnerability, and mystery.

📽️ Conceptual Artistry & Vision

The New Of The Tower is not just music—it's an immersive audiovisual concept.

💀 Explores themes of dystopia, poverty, guilt, rebellion
🏙️ Brutalist club visuals, cyberpunk aesthetics
🕯️ Emotional depth with non-commercial intent
🎭 “4 Malos Polvos” = a “dark confession for love sinners,” cinematic and raw
🌀 Each release = a journey through shadow and rhythm
🕺💀 Dance meets darkness—a kind of electronic film noir where each beat tells a deeper truth.

📈 Style Evolution: From EDM to Darkness

🟢 2019–2022: EDM & electro-pop beginnings (Feel EP, “You And Me” — catchy and bright)

🟡 2024: Transition into melodic techno (“Not Living Without You”)

🔴 2025–Present: Shift to dark techno, darkwave, flamenco-trap, and experimental storytelling (“Velvet Guillotine”, “Marionetas”)

🎭 From mainstream dance-pop to raw, conceptual electronic music—always evolving, always fearless.

🎼 Comparable Artists & Influences

🧩 The New Of The Tower resonates with:

🧨 Brutalismus 3000 (techno-punk dystopia)
👾 Perturbator (dark synthwave)
🌘 Mind Against / Recondite (melodic techno & melancholia)
🎤 Boy Harsher, Massive Attack (dark vocals, trip-hop moods)
🔥 Anyma (techno emotion), Latin trap/fusion for its flamenco-trap leanings
🌌 But ultimately, it defines its own world—one built from dark techno, darkwave, nu-jazz, and trap-rock fusion.
