Jam at Gypsy Tapas House - Sovereign by Montego Ikarus

Here is a jam we had at Gypsy Tapas House, Fremantle. Thanks to Andrew Litster and co from Murdoch University for the video. This song is called, "Sovereign" from the upcoming album release called, "Domestic Terrorist." This was taken down when I posted it on facebook because of this name in the title. So here I am reposting it again on this blog. The release of 'Domestic Terrorist' will be on the 23rd of June at Gypsy Tapas. https://www.facebook.com/events/1072414089488824/

Latenight thoughts

A darkness encased in love
He lingers on my breath
Waiting for a release
"Wander now, my dawdling
Travel deep and far into the abyss."

He wanders
He returns

I have seen many great things master
But the greatest of these I cannot tell
For it would be a great crime against love to do so

What do you withhold from me little one?

Nothing that needs be met your ear good sir. You would do better to go without, than to suffer the knowledge of this.

I trust your judgement
But it troubles me greatly that there is something so grave
Not even you can tell your master of it

I wander
I wander into the abyss
I return

An 'I' returns
Not the same I that left.

Ask nothing

Trust the trustworthy

Trust what has nothing to gain from your trust

Trust love

Save innocence

Just cause you can shit in your hand doesn't mean you need to know the experience of doing so

Rationally withhold curiosity

The state of what is called music in the modern capitalist environment

The state of music appreciation as programmed by the corporate media to the mass public, and therefore the world:

Repetition is the master of learning.

The human brain is trained by repetition of something in our environment.

The frequency of which you see, taste, touch, smell, hear something trains your mind to have a tendency toward that thing linked with an emotional disposition.

This is how advertising works.

See something 17 times and that's the magick number you must see it before you buy it.

Control.

The Australian public, through mass media - TV and radio, have been trained by the corporate owners who control these lines of communication to like shallow, musically non-substantial, upbeat, hightone, hyper-sexual propaganda. The Australian public understand this bullshit to be the definition of music.

Their desires are not their own, their desires are not decided by them but by the frequency of something repeating in their environment and sphere or mind-energy-information-field.

If you watch TV and/or listen to the radio on a regular basis controlled and paid for by these corporations - your mind is not your own but an average of all the repetitions you have seen or heard.

Input = Output

Collectively the mass public affects the smaller minorities via 'critical mass' on a greater consciousness level and humanity as a whole depreciates its taste in real musick.

What the mass knows, we all know.

No need to watch or listen to these things yourself.

This is the mind and this is how it works.

Fields of information, not limited to the brain. The mind is not a brain.

The mind is first a body and then space between everything = ether.

Quantum reality.

Let us disarm the Mass Perception from the corporate media masters by infiltrating the mass media.

Orgasm - Poem/Diatribe

Like an incipit ghost
She wanders around
Pretending not to be dead
I feel the wheel of chaos it's turning
Caught in the charm of the moment
I beckon
"As long as it's something sinister,
I don't mind," She starts morosely
looking away to blow on a cigarette
"I like your idea of fun
I can only get off if it's naughty
Yes, it has to be naughty
Guilt and fear only, make it worth it
Though a far distant spectre
I don't feel those things anymore
I've pressed that button too many times
I just toy with myself,
Maybe I'll feel again
Tempting myself with something untouchable
Again.
I, the willing self flagellator
I flagellate my emotions over by back in quick nasty pride
like a whip of nine
I crave a split!
I crave blood!
But blood cannot come
I can't hurt myself any longer
Not because I choose not to
But because I don't feel hurt
In a spacious cloud prison of mind
I only feel a faint thud or if lucky, once every now and then, a light scratch
I lick the wound up quickly
Embracing the moment
Thanking the Gods, I have felt something, anything
Feeling
I am a shell
A husk of a shell
of a husk of a shell
Immortal
Cursed
Forever wanderer
A shadow
Death cannot be found
Because I am death
And in this sense
The doing of death can only be had in the living of my life."

-- Montego Ikarus

time is timeless -- free-form writing of the day 9-dec-2015

We all have an immediate and active effect
On our immediate reality
Its/it's moment to moment instant creation
Its/it's longterm manifestation

Conditioning runs deep
But it is all governed by time
Catch the instant before the moment
Rewire autotonic (look it up please! )

See what was once/one before
Trusted as unchangeable
Stand in a state to know
It can be changed

Catch the monkey mind
By the monkey's tail
Before it takes another turn
Around again,  again

See the moment between the moment
The instant before the assumed instance
You will see- where once it was unchangeable
Now it can be changed

Because it is known
And we have been honest
Finally!

---

"Don't forget to pay! "
Put that re-mind in the mind
A New constant-circling-conditioning
The you yourself has set

That's the present state of state
We are charge and UN-charge
Pay your coffee
Or face certain death

Fear is conditioning
All fear is conditioning
Fear runs the world system
See time before fear

Be fear before fear
And see the world as zip

Freedom for West Papua - Open Source Musick

15 years in prison for raising the West Papuan flag on West Papuan soil

Here is an open source song which is an adaptation of a similar song in the West Papuan language. West Papua has been forcefully occupied by Indonesia in 1963 and since then hundreds of thousands of West Papuans have been killed by Indonesian military for the purpose of allowing and protecting the two largest gold mines in the world, run by American mining corporates.

There are currently more Indonesian soldiers than there are West Papuans in West Papua and to raise the West Papuan flag or to speak of freedom for West Papua holds a minimum 15 year sentence (that's if you aren't killed in the process of being incarcerated).

Australians have the power and we must stand up for West Papuans! Our old friends the Fuzzy Wuzzie Angels from WW2 need our help!
