This edition of ID Music was created especially for the three to five people worldwide who share our overlapping interest in the complementary ecstasies of transcendent dance and descendent heavy mellow meditation. 

Our practice begins and ends with the music of Gabrielle Roth, the founder of the 5Rhythms movement meditation practice. In the space in between, we’ll be occupied with “profound and obscure” funeral doom from Japan, “cyclonic death metal chaos” from Russia, primordial Brazilian death-doom, and “blissfully scorched, psychedelic jams” from the Finnish-Iranian duo Gnäw.

Alan Watts reminds us to dance like nobody’s watching since life is not actually a journey and there’s nothing waiting for us at the end.

Our practice this week takes us from the deceptively warm-sounding resonance emanating from sunlit ice masses, though heavyweight folk from the Styx Riverbottom Nightmare Trio, to blues-infused doom for waterfront wailing, and furious blackened bootgaze for the morning after. 

We’ll come down easy with Live ‘Dive, and one of Neil Halstead’s favorite Slint songs. 

This week’s dharma will be familiar to veterans of our Basking in Gravity mindfulness installations, as Ezra Bayda encourages us to get comfortable with the idea that things aren’t always gonna work out how we want.

untitled (lead glance) (2020) is a collage of photographs of galena crystals. The work represents the tangible vibrations of terrestrial radio: Waves transmitted through Earth’s atmosphere for anyone in range to receive.

In 1894 Indian physicist Jagadish Chandra Bose was the first to use galena – a common sulfide mineral also known as lead glance – for detecting radio waves. In the 1920s this technology was adapted for crystal radios, simple unamplified receivers that played a role in the popularization of broadcast radio.

Pandemic Year Zero has ended, Pandemic Year One is now underway. Inter-Dimensional Music Soundsystem marks this auspicious occasion with an opportunity to bask in gravity and let the weight of this audio blanket crush your corpse back home to the dirt.

Our practice begins with Pulse Emitter’s “Space Frost,” and Alan Watts asking “why do you feel so heavy?” From there, the heavy mellow flows slow and low like tears of concrete. Listen for Grave Upheaval, Primitive Man, Sunn O))), NKISI, Luke Stewart, Ras Michael & The Sons of Negus, Jamire Williams, Marissa Nadler & Stephen Brodsky, and Gnarl.
