Audio File of the Nigredo

If you ever wanted to know how the alchemical Nigredo sounds, here's your chance. This was mixed by hand, so beat matching isn't perfect and volume shifts may be a little rough because I have the same mixer as I used in the 90s, but hopefully it adds character, or something like that. I had to sign many incomprehensible contracts with the unseen realm to get noetic direction on track selection, so I hope that you enjoy because I'm not sure what I've unleashed on myself and the world. Play it loud on good headphones or large hardwood speakers.

Nigredo Studies:  

1. Mark Henning, Jaguar: bouncy rays of twice-negated darkness 
2. Mark Broom: Satellite (Alex Bau Repaint): take the line of flight found in the maw of these soft laser beams 
3. Luke Slater, O-Ton (Reassembled 1): breathe through this precipitous sound machine, feel your guts tremble in vertiginous ecstasy 
4. Juan Atkins, Transport (Carl Craig): the Detroit masters arrive with offerings from the unseen realm of deep, sonorous, rubbery bands as well as skull-smashing four on the floor bass drums 
5. Juan Atkins, Starlight (Mike Huckaby): wash in the dub streams of fuzzy, dynamic bliss 
6. Parallel 9, Quanan: time for a long swim in the river Styx, bathe in its electric biochemical flows  
7. Parallel 9, Quantico: the warm rushes of nonbeing deterritorialize the determinate biology of being  
8. Blawan, 993: open wide and let the deep resonances of the body without organs fill the air 
9. Robert Hood: Higher! (Ben Sims): Praise and worship the capacious love from which you come 
10. Terrance Parker, Alarm the Sound: (Tiefschwarz): let all with ears hear, elsewhere’s glorious groove is far-near, already but not yet, and revealed as hidden 
11. Mark Henning, Exit Acid: cast out demons so they can wonder in the fatuousness of their own dry places and your daemon will find your house cleaned and hospitable for its gratuitous musings 
12. Terrance Parker: Alarm the Sound (Dirty Channels): emergency dance meeting at my house 
13. Luigi Madonna, Unconditional Beauty: beauty is a sublime horror, as the Italians well know 
14. Truss, Beacon: The radiant, green snake speaks, so listen 
15. Randomer, Stupid Things: stupidity is the new wisdom of alchemy’s synchronistic errors, only confusion can save us from clarity
