Beautiful sonic landscape, you've captured such a gorgeous mood here :)

The sails are taking me to a new wonderous place...

Like the fieldrecordings adding some autenticity... Makes med feel being there...

Massive awareness of the grandeur that will meet us arriving....

We did it again. I'm proud to introduce a brand new release, another collaboration with a timeless, spaceless Mistress of Vocal Time and Space. Nearly needless to add I'm talking about Myrh (@myrhyum). We started this collaboration more than one year ago, but I've been having tons of issues, so... Now it's out, and we hope you all will enjoy it.
Allow me to bore you with a few words about how we did it. Myrh originally sang along a looped section of another (still incomplete) song of mine, featuring the guitar part that eventually turned out to be the initial guitar solo in this final version. I had only Myrh's vocals, a tempo and a few bars of a guitar solo. I added a track of sampled tablas: at first I thought of it as a mere tempo reference, but it sounded good, so I kept it. At this point, I had a vision of how the piece had to sound. I pictured Myrh's vocals flowing inside a starship running through darkened depths, backed by an invisible ensemble of musicians playing some kind of an alien raga.
I found the starship on my internet browser. I downloaded an audio file called 495-AAB from archive.org (https://archive.org/details/Voyager1/495-AAB_8min10sec.wav). It was recorded on the spacecraft Voyager 1 ( launch date: 09/05/1977) and it's in the Public Domain. I did some sound design on it, and it became an awesome drone for the song, perfectly fitting Myrh's vibe. Then I recorded a few parts using my children's toy-instruments: vibraphone, oud and tambourine. A few months went by before I could start working on the organ, and a few others as well before I could record another couple of tracks with bağlama and lyra. I eventually completed the guitar solo, then added bass guitar and sampled drums. Once again I had to stop, for a considerable amount of time, before I could do some editing, the final mix and the mastering.
My humblest and heartfelt thanks to Myrh for allowing me once more to collaborate with her, for her limitless patience with my inconsistent workflow, for this gem of a song that I tried to decorate with (more or less) alien sounds and noise. One last word about this somehow arrogant use of the tag SpaceRaag: I'm absolutely aware of lacking of sufficient musical knowledge in order to compose or perform an actual raag; this is merely a spontaneous creation, I only tried to mess around with these harmonies springing from Myrh's sublime vocals and my own science fictional sonic vision.

Study For Steel And Paper

Sorrow

Dépossédées privées pourtant publiques par pseudo pensées putrides patriarcales, noues femmes ne sommes ni à vendre, ni à troquer, ni à triquer, ni à trimer, ni à étriper sur l'autel des petitesses péniennes aussi pédantes qu'inopérantes pourtant prêtes à pulvériser la planète pour une branlette.
Vos viols vénaux ne révèlent que vos pathologies de tyrans tarés trouant la terre autant que la tendresse qui n'est pour vous que sang à convertir en or et alors vous jouissez dans l'horreur afin de farder vos faiblesses d'une gloriole propre aux larbins que vous êtes en vérité, aveuglés par votre trop tranquille servitude tarifée. 
Bouffons du gouffre, vous vous gargarisez de votre fantasmagorique grandeur lorsque vous payez la perdition de vos partenaires toujours exclaves de sociétés cicellées de sadisme où chaque seconde vous sussure la vacuité de vos vies.
L'empathie est un trésor dont vous faites le commerce, vous excluant vous même par la même mystification qui vous érige en maîtres maudits maudissant notre monde.
Et si révolution doit advenir, elle risque fort de se faire sans vous, premiers dominateurs et dispensateurs de conformisme car ce que vous avez finira par vous avoir.
Et l'avoir de la vie ne se fait guère attendre...

It's All The Same To Me

I was honored when https://soundcloud.com/graphicsontelevisions asked me to remake ‘Tattlesnakes’ from their fantastic album ‘Pun’. Maybe it’s the wildest one, unpredictable but coherent, it inspired me immediately !!

I've remixed to my taste their original studio stems (drums & keyboards), adding my own vocals, guitars & more... hard recommendation of headphones again !!

Lyrics are from another of my ancient poems, where I played with oxytone & eproparoxytone rhymes (translated below but with lost effect in English).

Full versions album here: https://soundcloud.com/graphicsontelevisions/sets/another-pun-a-brand-new
Downloadable: https://graphicsontelevisions.bandcamp.com/album/another-pun
I suggest checking out the original tracks too: @https://graphicsontelevisions.bandcamp.com/album/pun !!!

Letra  /  Lyrics:

Claro que ya no soy plástico,  /  Clearly I’m not plastic anymore,
ni estoy falto de razón,  /  nor lacking of reason,
puesto que, siendo simpático,  /  since, being friendly,
de sangre es mi corazón.  /  of blood is my heart.

Claro que soy esporádico  /  Clearly I am sporadic
en locos cantos espléndidos.  /  in splendid crazy singings.

Gritos de loco dolor,  /  Screams of insane pain,
llenos de mudo amargor,  /  full of mute bitterness,
claro que ya no son gélidos.  /  clearly are not icy anymore.

Claro que ya soy simpático  /  Clearly I’m yet friendly
y estoy falto de amargor,  /  and lacking of bitterness,
puesto que mi corazón,  /  since my heart,
siendo de sangre, no es plástico.  /  being of blood, is not plastic.

Y en mis cantos esporádicos,  /  And in my sporadic singings,
claro que ya no soy gélido.  /  clearly I’m not icy anymore.

Gritos de loca razón,  /  Screams of mad reason,
ya no gritos de dolor,  /  not screams of pain anymore,
claro que ya son espléndidos!  /  clearly are yet splendid!
