If you’ve been away from this love I can imagine Where you’re coming from But I was there And I’m only there To live with you a free love To live with you a free love Engage us without locking I understand Why I’m running I’ve been searching like you I’ve been hiding the truth To share with you a free love To share with you a free love The one that makes us cry Without closing our heart And let it go Let go off hidden feelings There were no strings No price to pay But it went away I was yet clear Just a free love To give you a free love…

The why of the how (by So4)

Each seeker who hasn’t one day questioned his or her quest of the absolute or its absence, avoids the confrontation to his or her own pathology. The scientist seeks new equations to explain the world, the graphic designer new visual codes to express it, the musician new sonic structures to describe his or her emotions. All of the outsized seekers engage themselves on the paths of the how before acknowledging their lacks facing the why. The want to live of the species, your will of power, pretends to ignore that their success resides beforehand in the causes bringing the spirit to express its acuities. Creation is therapy. It seeks to intuitively compensate the deficiencies of the intellect in order to formulate its why. As such perdition turns out to sometimes become salutary. To lose your mind in the clouds always aggregates the perception of an image issued from the subconscious. This apparent cerebral dysfunction named pareidolia is an opportunity for anyone who seeks to identify the origins of their own expectations.

Each musical composition bears witness of the mind trying to reconcile their subconscient impulses with their free will. To pick a sound, a note or a rhythmic structure more than another, it’s to transform diffused influences towards souls which will recognize them. Greedy listener, will you be able to perceive on this album the pain issued by a composer who has crisscrossed his own demons from the confines of his dark side towards the soothing light which has finally contradicted him ? Will you identify the part of chaos confronting his own nihilism in order to mutate it into soft nostalgia, this joyful sadness embracing all redemption ? Will you nod to the will which has known to evolve consenting with what is what, to that forest which hides the tree from the ego ?

All mismatch, all suffering takes root in the ego. Since then a traumatic memory liberates itself from its emotional payload, he charges himself in wisdom. The worst that we ever lived now becomes the best material inclined to reconstruct us. When the memory of loved one’s face tends to become blurry, it’s another call from the soul avoiding to reduce it to an image. This paradox also animates all cathartic creation. The transfiguration heals the wounds as much tattoos constitutive to a personality.

In a world where art would only serve nothing else than entertainment, this thought would be contained by the less contrite, compelling the others to the persistent glee of the produce more. How do you say ? This world is already in place ?! Neptunian8 isn’t really sure of this last information...and it’s a blessing for your ears.
