Greetings fellow travelers, I mean you no harm. I have returned once again from the desert with a message of love. We are on the eve of the next Galactic Cycle. Our world is about to embark upon a realm shift. What will the new world be like? Its hard to say.

I know this: to prepare we must learn to develop higher resonances. We are to discard fear and the obsession with the material and embrace the frequencies of love. We must activate our future circuits in our DNA, we must view the world through our 3rd eyes, and we must evolve into pneumatic beings.

This is the music of Trans-dimensional worlds. It was embedded into my genetic make-up nearly 10 years ago. I have re-awakened my spirit with the harmonies of ancient vibrations. Yes, we are coming to an end of a great cycle. We are in the epoch of Shiva, awaiting the rebirth of our world. The entities who showed me our future taught me their songs. This music is not by me but channeled through me. My hope is that it awakens something within you as well.

Namaste

Retrun from the Village of Nash

Just flew in from Nashville…man are my arms tired. I don’t have all of the information I gathered there synthesized into any coherent and seamless ideas yet, but it was an interesting place. It’s very different from San Francisco…can’t get a good bagel there either (note to readers: I hate bagels). Nashville on a Saturday night is something. The main strip is lined with clubs, every club has an amazing (usually country) band playing. Every place is PACKED. Many clubs have touts (dudes standing out in front trying to get people to go in). Even the street musicians have listeners checking them out. It was really amazing to see such a vibrant music scene. This experience brought me to this conclusion: The club owners in San Francisco are not trying. They put no effort whatsoever into promoting and supporting indie bands that play their clubs. Bands have to do all the promotion, make flyers, coerce their friends into seeing them (again) and there is a real sense of competition for audience…maybe if you are luck the club will mention the line-up in the fucking Guardian or East Bay Express (which nobody reads) but that’s it. In Nashville music lovers have tons of choices, they can go from club to club and hear lots of music and the musicians seem to be appreciated. The fact that there are clubs next door to each other that play the same music and are packed shows the FAILURE of the IMAGINATION of the Bay Area Music Scene. The reason Nashville is awesome and SF sucks is that Nashville has a music culture. Music is lived and breathed and nurtured among its participants. Music is pre-fab entertainment out here. I am very tired of listening to club owners bitch about how bands don’t draw enough when they could be doing so much more. I wonder if Nashville bands get shitty PBR in cans aka “Band Beer” like we do. Anyhoo…Ix From Ixtlan is finally available on CD Baby: http://cdbaby.com/cd/ericxodik2 The video (which has been available for a while) looks like this: It has been added to some Ixtlan tourism site as well. This is my 2nd CD Baby release in 5 months. It’s more transcendental than Songs of Samsara. I originally created it as music to meditate to. I used to have a functional Mind Machine: http://www.mindmachine.com/ that I used in conjunction with the music to induce shamanic trance-like states. It was my Burning Man project in 2006 (until the Playa dust killed my mind machine). My aim here is to return music to a sacred space (as opposed to a consumable product). Although there is some stylistic overlap betwixt Ix and Samsara, Ix is less about song structure and formality and more about higher vibrational states. On thing about the video, the fire breathing effect was created by using real fire and WD-40 (reverse engineered alien technology). I nearly burned my studio down creating it. This is one of the many differences between me and Clint Black (who was on the plane to Nashville with me sitting in 1st class like a poser while I was sardined in with the people). I take dangerous artistic chances that could get people killed, he just wears a stupid hat and sings songs about sheep shanking.
