This is my son's band "Initiatrix" page on Soundcloud and their latest piece is "Requiem for a Dream".
If you like it, please leave them a comment on their Soundcloud page.

“No lists of things to be done. The day providential to itself. The hour. There is no later. This is later. All things of grace and beauty such that one holds them to one's heart have a common provenance in pain. Their birth in grief and ashes.”
- Cormac McCarthy, The Road

Learn this from the waters:
in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.

I didn't get into punk until I was 30. Weird.

Hi sattva, all,

this is music that sounds as if from Heaven; 'Meditation' by Massanet. Even if you're not into Classical music generally, you might like this:

No worries, pung, although all credit must go to the composer, Jules Massenet (1842 - 1912). I think that on the day/days he wrote that piece, everything just came together for him. It's inspired & from the heart.

Hi sattva,

I always liked that track, but until now I never knew that the cool sax player was a woman. Very enchanting...the playing, I mean ;)
