Demons, go away.
This may not be what you expect what the heck just another
speck in the spot of focus no more hocus pocus just press on
with one more word as I press forward the Mad Astral Prune
passing through the room if it's not what you expect then what
the heck just put on a smile and walk out to the deck.
Or plank what you drinkin must be skank cuz you're sinkin
in the dank knocking on the door at the bank asking for more too
well I hope you get what you want
cuz I'm trying to go for mine too while I'm winding through the
sands of time trying to find amidst the coffee grinds of my mind
the spiral diamond mine originating somewhere within the
depths of the collective mind cell.
The nanocell they produce in the booths of the brave hoping
to save cilivization from itself let them forge ahead into the future
cave but don't put the past on the shelf or it'll be the last as the
globe warms let us find alternate means to sustain our realm
and sooth the overwhelmed who feel cheated some how don't
have a cow we're all in it now so we'll fight our way out to a better
day where we don't have to dress in gray and obey the precepts
of an earlier day as I go
to and fro through Chicago living my life with as little as possible strife
as we slice through the scene making an occasional green thinking clean that we
may someday dream our way out of the machine as the day fades out how'd we make out crazy like a daisy what I say stays free in this room its the Prune sulking through the dark casting a tune through the gloom where I stay at any rate don't step on fate we're almost at
the gate.

A journey through the Astral Prune's turbulent groovebox repertoire; an audio mix produced by the Astral Prune using a pair of MC303's, a mixer, and a CD burner, and assorted wires and junk. Makes liberal use of CD forward button to skip over parts of the original 20 minute song that drag on so you get a final song that is just over 10 minutes. |

This piece starts out building up rhythmic layers that blend together to form a final picture and then spaces out into a keyboard solo that traverses the kingdom of pitches and leaves with a final bump to remind you that you are in the world of electronic dance music primarily and spacey background music secondarily. |

This version of the song Acid Reservoir (really an earlier segment in a 90 minute jam session done on Oakley) really exhibits the best qualities of the song, ie the multiple streams of energy blazing into your headpan. This is the attainment that I had been seeking; the rest of my musical career is fluff. |
