Harmony of Celestial Giants

Beneath the twilight's gentle glow, a fresh chapter unfolded. The horizon, a blank canvas, invited dreamers from all walks of life to etch their tales in its mysterious allure.

Whispers Of Stardust, New Horizons Await

Even today, modern politicians are educated by what's been dubbed a "manual of statecraft", penned by the so-called Father of Modern Political Philosophy and Political Science, the 16th century Venetian, Niccolò Machiavelli. 

In Machiavelli's book, The Prince, they are taught that no matter how evil the means that they employ are, to achieve victory, the ends will justify those means. Then as the victors, all they have to do is to rewrite the history, to present themselves as the good guys. 

I'm very grateful to Mark Combstead for providing such great rock music for this poem. You can find him here: https://soundcloud.com/markcombs-928282858

Words:

Last night, I dreamed of Machiavelli,
 Who, it seems, hasn’t learned much since the days of the Medici. 
 His pretext of seizing power for the ‘good of God’,
 Was straight out of the playbook of Cesar Borgia....
 So it seemed from my talk with poor, deluded Niccolo.
 
 Looking into my eyes and holding my hands
 He plied me with cunning plots and plans,
 Dripping in evil criminality, and base intent
 To create chaos for the existing world order
 No means was too foul, not even murder.
 
 The end will justify the means, my dear,
 Don’t worry your pretty head. 
 He said. 
 I wasn’t buying it, though, 
And so I said:	
 
 All around us in the world today that we see,
 Has been caused by those with such a strategy.
 The end doesn’t justify the means, at all.
 It is the means themselves which create the evil
 Of famine, pollution and perpetual war,
 Driven by madness, greed and holy preachings;
 This is the end created by your teachings. 
 We now have nation pitted against nation,
 Because the way, the means, IS the destination.

Dont' Know What to Sing

Don't Know What to Sing

The spirit of my drum "asked me" to heal the pain of betrayal in all those who wished to attune to it, and so I used my breath and intention while drumming between 4 and 7 beats per second, the rhythm most conducive for going into shamanic trance.

Andreas (APi_ZZ) found that the resonance of my drumming was of the frequency 109 Hz, close to the 108 Hz which is the sound tuning used to heal the sacral chakra, the Svadhishthana. So he fine tuned the drumming frequencies to that exact 108 Hz. 

The sacral chakra governs the reproductive region and when it has been knocked out of balance, it can block our fertility in all aspects of our lives, such as our joy and enthusiasm that gives rise to our creativity. And so I added in the Adi Shakti mantra, the prayer to the Great Mother, who is associated with the Svadhishthana. The Adi Shakti mantra tunes us into Her and into Her mantle of protective, generating energy that gently dissolves our fear blocks. 

Andreas then put the whole thing to music, using flute and Tibetan sound bowls attuned to the frequency of 432 Hz. He also added a bowl drone sound (again at 432 Hz), augmented by bells chiming in deeply associated frequencies of  (again) 108 Hz, 162 Hz, and 243 Hz and a second bowl at 364.5 Hz. These frequencies relate to the sacral, solar, heart and throat chakras.

The whole track has been carefully developed to enrich (self) healing ideas and offers a deep listening experience as well. 

The Cover Art, by APi_ZZ, incorporates the Svadhishthana yantra, the visual, symbolic interpretation of the Svadhishthana mantra.

Ups & Downs

I want to live a king
With a house of lords you’ll be my queen
We can have all that we want
So stay a while
Play like we’re gods 

We can sit on a wall
Dream a lot so we freefall
We can be who we are
Instead of acting like people were not

:::::::::::::

Your boundary walls come undone 
I feel your jaded memories 
Divided one by one

Confusion in the mind
A cortex thrown out of symmetry
Multiplied with time

But in this world
I am sublime
I wanted a choice
To read between the lines 

In this time
God stole my voice
And where is my choice
To use what’s left behind 

In this universe 
I am sublime……

A Second Demo Collection

Live Like a King (Demo)

Hello my Friends :)

This is my new Track "Now and Always". It all started with the inspiration from the piece "Our World" by Audiomachine but it really evolved into a different direction, which isn't a bad thing after all 🙂.

Personally i especially like the last section, which gives me exactly the nostalgic feeling i wanted to create :-)

I hope you like it !

Have a wonderful day.

Marcel 

- Now and always bound,
Time's fleeting whispers, profound,
Love's eternal sound.-

Now and Always

Better than you

Better Than You

GOLD - DRILL TRAP LOOP  140 Bpm @A2RBEATZ

Hi, I'm Tom, thank you for visiting my Bio!

Please do check out my youtube channel, I'm going to be adding my music to lots of videos for feedback too, first is Final Fantasy 7 - Aerith - with my song sadness within and would love feedback!! https://youtu.be/6vo7dspYilE

 I create original pieces.  I have always kept my music to myself apart from close family and a select few friends. I only post on Sound Cloud and for whatever reason I verry much struggle with self advertisement ( if anyone else struggles with this I'd be interested to know!)

All the music I make is recorded live in one go. No editing etc. ( I'm severely technologically challenged haha!)

After many years ...the pieces posted here are the result... of finally sharing with others! 


I normally mess about with random sounds on the keyboard and then just start adding bits and that's it. Alot of what I've made is off the cuff and Some I forget how to play once I've made them as I have so many random ideas lol.

I've never had a music lesson and don't know how to read music. I make songs at home, have never had studio time and am really interested to engage with others, learn and get further inspiration to make more music!

Would always love any feedback, comments advice from any and all. And please do genuinely feel free to reach out, all messages responded to positively and happily.


Thank you for listening!
