I learned "Underwater Wonderscapes" on piano recently, it's a really fun song to play and was surprisingly easy to learn!

“There is no single face in nature, because every eye that looks upon it, sees it from its own angle. So every man’s spice-box seasons his own food.”

— Zora Neale Hurston

Fantasy has always been on of my favorite genres -- the expansive, unlimited possibilities, the wealth real world seeds to inspire magic, the infinite colors of scale, scope, and scene. Literally, playground for dreamy, wandering imaginations.

Even so, I had to learn to freely embrace what I really 'saw' when I was read stories, what my own mind envisioned, self-immersing in the wonderscape that books really just serve to inspire. The hesitancy came from the countless messages and corrections, questions, and criticisms I heard received about where, how, and why my imagination was should unleash because I didn't look much like the usual protagonists.

The irony being obvious -- that schema is pure point opposite the genre.

The world of romantafantasy is so gloriously vast now. No limits on references, representations, and gods blessed published and fanfic writers. Somewhere along the quest I landed in that garden soft bed of luxury, and it was a whole wrap. All the inspirations living rent free in my mind while reading anything that wasn't 'coded' for audiences who were not European, thin, hetero -- well, they're quite beautiful in flight.

We make the space for our natures, and relish in their worlds, freely. Dreamers need not permission, because Feyre Darling, you bow to nothing and no one but your crown.

A minor manifesto I guess @>- ^_^ <3

wonderscape 15 by artist wondermundo

The artwork presented is a compelling fusion of natural and synthetic elements, creating a striking dichotomy that commands attention. The juxtaposition of the rugged, monochromatic mountain terrain against the vibrantly hued sky and surreal, geometric structures gives rise to a thought-provoking contrast, balancing the raw beauty of nature with the fantastical possibilities of human creation.

One cannot help but be drawn to the magenta skies, a color choice that evokes a sense of otherworldly wonder, perhaps hinting at a universe that lies just beyond the limits of our imagination. This choice of a non-traditional sky color is a hallmark of the cyberpunk aesthetic, where the rules of nature are bent and reimagined through the lens of technology and futuristic vision.

The pixelated formations at the base of the mountain are reminiscent of the early days of digital art, a nod to the retro roots of the cyberpunk genre, while the sleek lines and floating orbs suggest a leap towards the future. These elements work in harmony to suggest a digital dreamscape, a place where the past and future converge in a digital now.

The composition is balanced yet dynamic, with the vertical elements creating a sense of movement that guides the eye across the canvas. The varying textures, from the detailed crags of the mountain to the smoothness of the synthetic structures, add depth and complexity to the piece, inviting the viewer to linger and explore the terrain.

Overall, the artwork is an evocative piece that skilfully blends traditional landscape art with digital artistry, creating a visual narrative that is both nostalgic and forward-looking. It is a testament to the artist's ability to envision and craft a world that is firmly rooted in the cyberpunk ethos, reflecting both a reverence for the natural world and a fascination with the potential of the digital age.

você e uma lembrança

Agora são cerca de 2 horas da manhã e volto a escrever, mesmo você, com seu jeito carinhoso de ser ( contém ironia ) me falando docilmente ( ironia de novo ) para não fazer isso de novo. Mas sabe o que é? Aqui é meu refúgio e eu sinto saudade sua e de escrever aqui. E quem sabe eu escreva um livro com todas essas histórias? Você sabe que sou ruim de memória e preciso gravar as coisas. Ok, continuando..

Agora são cerca de 2 horas da manhã e eu decidi antes de dormir abrir meu Spotify e abrir minha playlist de música clássica. Então começou a tocar Underwater Wonderscapes, Swarm of Fish e por assim vai. E eu, perdida nos tons agudos e graves começava a me lembrar de você. Lembrava de você tocando seu teclado e por ventura lembrei de mim quando era criança passando meus dedinhos no teclado na casa de uma antiga familia de vizinhos, eu deveria ter uns 10 anos. Lembrei também que eu sempre gostei disso, de violino, de teclado, de música. Por isso eu sempre acho que o melhor presente que alguém pode me dar é um fone de ouvido. E, veio também a lembrança que eu fui tentar aprender na escola de música mas fracassei drasticamente. Fracassei porque eu acho que me dou melhor em admirar a música do que tentar tocar ou aprender, deve ser por isso que eu amo ver e admirar você tocar sua guitarra e seu teclado e não entendo nada quando você tenta me explicar. E assim como um instrumento eu preciso aprender a te observar e te admirar sem me envolver, sem tocar em você. Porque quando eu toco em você eu não sei o que fazer, fico confusa, tenho medo de tentar e dar certo também. Vai que eu aprendo a tocar a melodia e dar certo?

Droga, já são 3 da manhã.

#139 - Angels and Daemons At Play - Motorpsycho (1997)

After their strange venture to more concrete songwriting prowess on Blissard, Motorpsycho would go back to more jammy songs for their next studio album. Unlike previous sonic experiments, the band decided to experiment with releases. Instead of just releasing their next studio workings, the band would instead release three EPs, all with various feels of music, and release them one by one with limited copies, and then combine those EPs together to create their 6th studio work. These three EPs, Babyscooter, Have Spacesuit Will Travel, and Lovelight all contribute to various feelings of this 50 minute extension of music in the Motorpsycho lineage.

If I had to describe Angels and Daemons At Play with one word, it’d be dense. This is a very densely packed album, with each EP contributing to the album’s general sonicscape in various ways.

The Baby Scooter EP is the introduction to the album, having the familiar, winding, and verbose sound of their more Psychedelic Alternative Rock efforts from Timothy’s Monster or their Manmower EP. What I like about this part of the album is that it holds no punches and just gets right to the chase immediately. It knows what you want, and it knows how to give it. A really solid foot forward within the band’s usual sound, while also doing some different things like emphasizing slower songs and more textural experiences, which I think absolutely helps with the feel for the album as a whole.

The real gemstone of the album for me and probably for other Progheads out there is the Have Spacesuit Will Travel parts of the album. On vinyl releases the band does add in the full EP into the workings, which end up making the album an hour and more long, but since I am stuck with the streaming version, the only song off that EP is Un Chien D’espace, but that’ll just have to do. Despite its singular song status, this is absolutely my favorite part of the album. This thirteen minute journey through more raw, heavy, and acidic feelings of music without it feeling overly drawn out or way too forced in the album’s general atmosphere makes this an extremely great song. Furthermore, this is their first TRUE progressive effort. I know I said in the Timothy’s Monster review that Timothy’s Monster was the band’s first progressive rock album, but in terms of sonically, Angels and Daemons At Play with the Have Spacesuit Will Travel parts really takes that cake.

Lastly is the Lovelight parts of the album, and this is probably the weakest EP of the album sadly. After the psychedelic wonderscape of Baby Scooter and the progressive rock beauty of Have Spacesuit Will Travel, this EP doesn’t deliver on a sound as well. It has an effort in a more pop punkish and general alt rock sound that bands like Green Day and The Offspring would bathe in, though Motorpsycho does try some newer things to keep that style of music on this EP to feel a little more adventurous than some efforts from those bands I have mentioned (Though Green Day did make some long songs on American Idiot a few years later.). What this EP lacks in is the eccentric energy previous EPs have, and even when there is energy, I never felt like the band was honing in on the music to make it truly special, but rather just playing for the sake of playing. I never found this part of the album to be entirely special, and I cannot help but find it really lacking in huge material that I’d be excited to hear again from the band’s efforts moving forward. Sad that this otherwise great album ended with a whimper rather than a bang.

Even despite the last EP, this is still another great effort from the band’s discography. It is kind of like a more streamlined, polished, and less heavy Demon Box with each part of the album contributing to improving and learning more of the band’s sounds. The vinyl edition is definitely the best way to experience the album, but the streaming and cd editions are also perfectly fine too. Another great effort from Norway’s best band.

4.5/5
