For me, the music on the record is about connecting or reconciling polarities. The electronics with the acoustic instruments, the natural world with the human world, and the big ideas of life with the personal and intimate. This is a dynamic I started to explore in my 2004 record The Blue Notebooks, and the new project shares many of that album's concerns; in a way this record is another look at the themes of the earlier work, but from the perspective of our world and our lives in 2024.[3]
I'm chiming in a dozen years later to say that I truly with this was the roid-enhanced Mark McGwire coming down off the rage and infamy to just make some zone-out music and pull the thorns out of his soul.Heathen wrote:new Mark McGuire track, new album in February
First part of the 'Trilogie de la Mort'.
Inspired by the root text of the 'Bardo Thödol' (Tibetan 'Book of the Dead'), this piece refers to the six intermediate states of consciousness that constitute the existential continuity of being:
1. Kyene - Naissance (Birth)
2. Milam - Rêve
(Dream)
3. Samten - Contemplation-Méditation
(Contemplation-Meditation)
4. Chikaï - Mort
(Death)
5. Chönye - Claire lumière (Bright light)
6. Sippaï - Traversée et retour (Crossing and Return)"
