This is my reinterpretation of the song Merry Ex-Mas, a brilliant piece by Ian PH Clifford. The original version is an absolutely beautiful track, just acoustic guitar and voice. I was so taken with the song that I immediately asked Ian if I could do a different version. He agreed and even after saying that I was interested in doing something punk or post-punk, Ian didn't shy away. So the original acoustic version went from 127 bpm to 160 bpm, and incorporated distorted guitars, pounding bass and frantic drums. It's a complete miracle that there are still people who want to do collabs with me, even though I mutilate songs like this. 😂

Merry Ex-Mas was #4 on the Repost/Exchange rock chart and I can only thank Ian for the opportunity to reinterpret a song that is already fantastic in itself.

LYRICS
Something I’ve been thinking about a lot this week
Is you’ve been in his arms longer than you were with me
As the snow falls down outside and I’m sliding past your drive
And I can see that you’re home
But I am paralyzed, I won’t even try
To say hello
This winter feels longer than lifetimes
I feel like I’ve lived and died a hundred times
But I don’t cry anymore that wells dry down to the floor
And now I’m outside of your front door
And I’m not sure what I’m doing here
Merry Christmas I guess
I miss you to death
The ribbon on my wrist is turning my hand blue
I can’t wait till Christmas
No I can’t wait till Christmas
I said I’d never live another day without you
No I can’t wait till Christmas
No I can’t wait till Christmas
Something I’ve just figured out
Is why you had to leave
Your heart is colder than ice
And mine began to freeze
As the snow falls down outside and I’m sliding past your drive
And I can see that you’re home
I am paralyzed, but I know I need to try
To say hello
This winter feels longer than lifetimes
I feel like I’ve lived and died a hundred times
But I don’t cry anymore that wells dry down to the floor
And now I’m outside of your front door
And I’m not sure what I’m doing here
Merry Christmas I guess
I miss you to death
The ribbon on my wrist is turning my hand blue
I can’t wait till Christmas
No I can’t wait till Christmas

I said I’d never live another day without you
No I can’t wait till Christmas
No I can’t wait till Christmas

Autumn Breeze deals with themes of despair and melancholy - where the narrator is undecided on whether to give life another try, or fade into oblivion.

"Thousand and One" is inspired by the story of Scheherazade and Sultan Shahriyar. After discovering his wife's infidelity, the Sultan decided to kill each of his wives the day after their wedding to prevent a potential betrayal. To save his life and that of other women, Scheherazade began telling stories that fascinated him every night, always ending them when they piqued his curiosity. This led the Sultan to spare her, and over time, he fell in love with her. The piece captures this extraordinary relationship, full of tension but also a gradual warmth and understanding. In the background, there's a sense of oriental magic, mystery, and the power of stories that have endured for centuries. This is a story about the power of words, wisdom, and love that arises where we least expect it. The lyrics offer hope that untamed and deadly force can be transformed into love, and that one should never give up, even when the situation seems hopeless.

Tysiace i Jedna

🧊🇺🇸 English
In the frozen mountains of O MAGO’s universe, the cold itself is magic.
Through a ritual of supreme power, the Wizard channels the energy of ice and summons the Yeti — the legendary creature that awakens when silence cuts through the sound.
“YETI 111” was born from this spell: a cold, heavy, and spiritual trap where every beat vibrates at 111 Hz the mystical code of inner strength.

Between smoke and frost, Augustin Plug manifests the Wizard’s power within the beat, turning sound into ritual.
The Yeti is the beast, the instinct, the frozen roar of the soul and Plug is the one who commands it.

A spell in the form of trap.
The ice speaks. The Wizard awakens.

🧊🇧🇷 Português
Nas montanhas congeladas do universo de O MAGO, o frio é magia.
Durante um ritual de poder supremo, o Mago canaliza a energia do gelo e invoca o Yeti: A criatura lendária que desperta quando o silêncio corta o som.
“YETI 111” nasce desse feitiço: um trap frio, pesado e espiritual, onde cada batida vibra na frequência 111 o código místico da força interior.

Entre gelo e fumaça, Augustin Plug manifesta o poder do Mago dentro do beat, transformando o som em ritual.
O Yeti é a fera, o instinto, o grito congelado da alma! E o Plug é quem o controla.

Um feitiço em forma de trap.
O gelo fala. O Mago desperta.

Lyrics:
Watches the holy stars
Huddles against them like a big black dog
Getting lost in it, being chewed up, swallowed down like meat
That's what the dark needs, it wants your light to eat
Defeat, defeat

It stays silent, so attentive, ready to hit hard
Its nature is violence, but it mostly just barks

Uh
