Lucid Dream, Dulcet Scream 25:08
lyrics
When we were meat and bones I was happy in my home But now I have a hearty shit-brain and it’s been so long When we were but one kid Oh, home… I, mind I don’t mind We meat and were when bones in home I happy my was home now but I shit a hearty brain so long and it’s been but were when one we kid Oh, home When I saw you for the 9,000th time I was happy that I was still alive holding holding When I saw you for the very first time Quite honestly your meat and bones were fine I never knew I’d make it to this night I never knew I’d wake up alive I mind I don’t mind

about

“…the train left the tunnel and Lake Baikal appeared before us…”

I believe that the process of creating “Lucid Dream, Dulcet Scream” began as I walked home from the grocery store one late-afternoon in February of 2011, six-pack recently purchased, and had the idea to ask a friend of mine, who lived in the same apartment building as I, if he wanted to collaborate on a cover of Michael Jackson’s “Bille Jean” that night. He texted me back, saying he liked the idea a lot, but he had plans. Feeling excited about making music, and perhaps saving “Billie Jean” for another time (it never happened), I began work when I got home on a new album. It began, like other albums, as a series of songs, but I couldn’t quite get them the way I wanted. I had the idea to create a simple process, based on lucid dreaming, that would result in a series of sounds—amongst these sounds I then placed the songs I’d recorded. I had used process-driven approaches a lot in the past to create poetry, and had then done so just a bit with music as well. This was the last album I made while drinking alcohol.

Though recorded in 2011, the album wasn’t released until November 12, 2013, on Bandcamp shortly after I joined it. I re-released all of my previous albums on Bandcamp that day as well.
