Description

This is experimental, sometimes approaching true avant-garde, but arranged to be culturally recognizable to a popular audience.

Notes

Generally, this cd has humor, silly noises, and religious and philosophical speculation, and might be of some interest to musicologists for the avant-garde, hillbilly, blues, waltz, funeral processional, and baroque fugue influences.
"Flash Wave" and "Video Death Maze" are the set-up tracks, representing the onset of a trip that turns bad. I was reading lots of "legitimate" science, "pseudo" science, and magick when I put this together in 2006 and that had an influence on it. When listening to the whole cd, it's best to listen to everything and not to try to mentally filter out mistakes or other unintended effects, such as if the speakers vibrate or cause something in the room to vibrate, There are subtleties that will be masked if things are filtered out.The various tracks can be seen as going through wormholes or secret doors into many mansions. There are lots of intended themes throughout it, but the most important ones are at the end. "Blood Bacchants" and "Exploding Robot" contrast the old time religion with the violent effects of industrialization. "Cyborg Before Dawn" is the key track. It's partly about a reconciliation between humans and technology. I doubt the transhumanist idea that machines will replace people, but I think that humans are already essentially cyborgs when they use technology. It's a relatively optimistic track and includes themes of religious mysticism. "Ghost Fugue: Infernal Square Dance" isn't an optimistic track. "Fugue" has the double meaning of a musical form and a state of mind. This one represents being trapped at the infernal square dance, even after having navigated through various secret doors. "Wormholes" is spelled as two words for a reason, mainly because I didn't know any better, but I left it that way so that you may feel free to interpret it in various ways. My favored alternate reading is one that you're likely to repress, and it gives the title two-sided connotations of hope and dread.
