mike says things sometimes

So me and TYT finally put the wrap on this project, and you can be off and downloading it now! Check it, TYT and Able-X: For The Love Of…

It’s finally time, now available is my new album “The Butterfly Effect”.  The story of one man’s attempt to save humanity at the end of the universe, and the perils of greed, ambition and arrogance.  Go download it now!

Special thanks to T.Y.T for his kick ass perfomances and input with the story direction.

Check it out, TyT was cool enough to submit us for this:

I just learned from Nerraux over at the Awful Show that TyT’s dad Tim Jackson passed away last night.  Words can’t describe the sadness of losing a loved one, but there’s something comforting I read once, which I keep linked on the right hand column of this site, that express’ my feelings of life and death more eloquently than I ever could.

Below is an except from “Stardust”http://www.ebonmusings.org/atheism/stardust.html   

“Compared to the great vastness of the cosmos, the ocean of deep time, my individual existence is a blip, a bubble in the foam on the surface of a flowing river. I am a momentary arrangement of atoms and molecules – an arrangement that lives and moves, to be sure, an arrangement that thinks, laughs, appreciates beauty, dreams, and loves – but a mere arrangement nonetheless, a transient state, an ephemeral gathering. Soon the blip will go out, the bubble will pop, the arrangement will dissolve, molecular bonds released by entropy. My consciousness will cease. But the molecules that once were me will still exist. The atoms that made up my body – iron, carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, all the heavy elements forged in the crucibles of dying stars – will remain. Liberated from their temporary home, they will rejoin the rest of the planet, taking new shapes, finding new arrangements, becoming part of other life. I will become merged with everything.

  I will become part of the trees that grow wherever my ashes are scattered, joining the ecosystem of the forest. I will be in the slow green heartwood of the trunks as they patiently tick off the centuries, in the buds that burst forth in spring and in the leaves that explode with color in autumn. I will be the sparkle of sunlight on the surface of a flowing mountain stream. I will sink into the earth and mix with the groundwater, eventually flowing back and rejoining the ocean where all life on this planet ultimately began. I will be in the waves that crash on the shore, in the warm sheltered tidal pools, in the coral reefs that bloom with life, and in the depths that echo with whale songs. I will be subducted into the planet’s core and join the three-hundred-million-year cycle of the continental plates. I will rise into the sky and, in the fullness of time, become dispersed throughout the atmosphere, until every breath will contain part of me. And billions of years from now, when our sun swells and blasts the Earth’s atmosphere away, I will be there, streaming into space to rejoin the stars that gave my atoms birth. And perhaps some day, billions of years yet beyond that, on some distant planet beneath bright alien skies, an atom that once was part of me will take part in a series of chemical reactions that may ultimately lead to new life – life that will in time leave the sea that gave it birth, crawl up onto the beach, and look up into the cosmos and wonder where it came from.  And the cycle will begin again.” 

 Much love to ya bro.  

Last night I had the pleasure of remixing In My Room for TyT’s New Liver, New Life cd.  It’s a solid track to start with, and YTCracker finally managed to get his vox in, so i recut the track, spliced him and it’s full of win.  So if you were one of the first few individuals to purchase the cd and got the version minus YT, contact me and I’m sure we can work something out.

I also feel very cool having mixed together a track with TyT, Logic One, Maja and YTCracker.
