Continue readingThe Qalupalik (also spelled Qallupilluit) is a well-known mythical creature of the Inuit, who inhabited the freezing tundra of Alaska, Canada, and Greenland. These sea-dwelling creatures are typically described as half-human sea monsters with elongated fingernails and green, slimy skin. One of the most terrifying legends of Iroquois culture is the myth of Kanontsistóntie’s. The Kanontsistóntie’s, or flying heads, were exactly that — disembodied heads with fiery eyes and long tangled hair. These heads floated through the air and hunted for humans to eat. The Yakama, who live at the border between what is now Washington and Oregon states, say that the Tah–tah–kle’-ah were giant owl witches who once roamed the plains at night looking for people to devour. They most enjoyed feasting on children and could mimic the languages of the tribes to lure victims. Played live during the lockdown. All sound played and recorded in real time. No

Equipment: Blofeld synthesizer, Arturia Beatstep, Pandora Korg effects pedal, Xenyx QX 1002 Behringer mix desk effects. Played on March, 30th, 2020, during the Coronavirus pandemic. Pandemic Suite #12. Processed in November 2020 and January 2021. Voice taken from videos of Marduque Rebecca. Texts from O Caminho Iniciático nos Arcanos do Tarôt e da Cabala (Samael Aun Weor, Bogotà 1917- Mexico 1977). This is a special project. The sounds waited for months until I found the right voice. I choosed this voice, among many others, because it is haunting and warm. The words are from a cabalistic text, but in reality this is of no importantce. Voice is used as an instrument.Thanks to Hamfuggi Records for releasing it.
