LISTEN/DOWNLOAD DETRIT∴US
4 years ago, under the total eclipse of August 2017, I conducted a major anarchic magickal working. As the earth took a big gulp, and the hum of the world silenced for a moment, I danced, howled and babbled intentions into the moon’s shadow. 4 years later, here we are, under a rare blue moon, and I am seeing the culmination of that magickal working complete a circle.
You see, after the ritual ignited The Tower, I began to rebuild pursuits that have been long gestating ever since. It was my intention to further my education through use of a podcast platform (PRAGMAGICK), to help usher a community of anarchic artists (We The Hallowed) and continue to experiment with transdimensional artistic practices (Dakota Slim, Zozobra). 4 years later, as I configure my new working amongst my altar in my new home, under the totality of a full blue moon at 5am, I can’t help but feel DETRIT∴US is that perfect circle, that perfect egregore of all that came before.
it is time for a more inclusive, ramshackle and brilliantly authentic compilation for the second WtH AUDIO SIGIL. It shall remain anarchic as this medium is the message. Therefore, overarching prompt for submissions for our second AUDIO SIGIL is personifying one’s metaphysical praxis into an aural assault, individually.
That was my simple prompt for submissions over a year ago. A year of universal conflict, personal setbacks and drastic changes, a year amongst this world forever changed by you-know-what. But it wasn’t the setbacks, or the state hopping that kept me from releasing this sooner. It was the idea that I would create a sub-album, a collection of tethers, a sonic sinew to tie the entire sigil together. Of course creating original compositions, inspired by other artists submissions, or inspired by my personal praxis alone, is what has kept this burning in the forefront of my mind for all this time. But as I said in the prompt, this was all about unifying anarchic magicks into a talisman, and that we did.
Enjoy the seamless track on any pod caster, and if you’re downloading the album (pay-what-you-want) – make sure to set your media player for gapless play to enjoy the full, seamless sigil.
What more is there to say? This has been a long, treacherous road, but we can now revel in this exorcisim.
Haunt On,
