I was THRILLED to join my friend Luxa on Lux Occult Podcast Episode 70 to talk about Spinoza and the Sexy Dangers of Pantheism, Transdivinity & Agdistis! Won't you give it a listen?

Rocket https://www.instagram.com/eyeandy/ joins Luxa to talk about Spinoza, Pantheism, the idea of a Transcendent vs. an Immanent divine (and what that translates into for humans). What does this look like when religious philosophy is translated into political doctrine? We also talk about Kabbalah (with a K), and why the Mysteries (with a capital M) must be experienced somatically rather than cognitively. Rocket shares about Jewish Mysticism, the upcoming Trans Rite of Ancestor Elevation https://trans-rite.tumblr.com/ their work with Agdistis and some of the mythology surrounding the godform whose gender was just too much for the Olypians (and how this ties into they mythology surrounding Dionysis). There’s a a tasty poetry snack created via cut-ups and gematria by Keats Ross of We the Hallowed https://wethehallowed.org/ which was used to find the track order for the audio offerings of Fuck Around and Find Out pt. 2 the digital mixtape (of which tracks are featured). There are also updates about the Green Mushroom Hyphosigil Project https://greenmushroomproject.com/. Much Love!

Actor as a mafia boss with Dark as his body gaurd and Anti as his spy/eyeandy/hitman (anti’s got it all).

Actor making a deal with someone with Dark standing by his side and Anti on his lap. He is scary. He is also shorter then both of them

Beautiful copy of: Selassie is the Chapel, featuring Bob on lead vocals / guitar, Rita, Bunny and Peter with flawless, heavenly harmonies and percussion. First pressing of this deeply, spiritual acoustic was on white label back in 1968 and as far as I know, just a handful of copies were made. My own personal copy is on the Wail n Soul label which was formed by the Wailers in 1966-ish and located at 18a Greenwich Park Road, Kingston 5, Jamaica. Production and hauntingly beautiful binghi drumming is by Mortimer ‘Kummi’ Planno, one of the key figures in the early Rasta movement and one of Marley’s first managers. Planno, a revered elder in the Nyabinghi Mansion (on 5th Street, Trenchtown) must also be credited as the first person to garner a record contract for the Wailers, after introducing them to American record producer Danny Sims at a Grounation ceremony at Planno’s yard in Trenchtown. The late Danny Sims (2012), wily businessman, controversial publisher and multiple label owner, signed the Wailers around 5 years before Island Records. That same year, they would sign their first non- exclusive long term contract with Cissi Music, one of JAD labels associated music publishing companies. Incidentally, JAD was co-owned by Johnny Nash (the ‘J’ in JAD) who is considered to be one of the first foreign musicians to record multiple reggae hits in Kingston, Jamaica. His rendering of: I Can See Clearly Now (1972) achieved the #1 spot on the US Billboard Hot 100 Chart, where it remained for four weeks and sold over 1 million copies. In Roger Steffens book: So Much Things To Say: The Oral History of Bob Marley, Sims is quoted as saying : “If it wasn’t for Johnny Nash, reggae would have never been a worldwide, international music.” That’s quite a bold opinion, so his statement is open to debate. At the end of the day, if it wasn’t for Jamaica - REGGAE would not exist! Something else that’s quite interesting is that the JAD contract was drawn up by the lawyer father of much loved Jamaican Radio Broadcaster, the late Neville Willoughby (2006). Arthur Jenkins and Danny Sims are the A & D of the acronym. Fast forward to 2011 and: Selassie is the Chapel (this time, sung by Stephen and featuring big bro Ziggy) resurfaces on Stephen Marley’s second studio album: Revelation Pt.1 - The Root of Life. The album went on to win the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album in 2012 and like Nash, 40 years prior, shot to #1 on US Billboard’s Reggae Album’s Chart. The journey of this song, it’s origins and the complexity of the history interwoven by the threads that bring the fabric together are simply fascinating. Part folklore, part fact. But isn’t that what history really is after all? A perspective, a memory, a curated memory? We choose the viewpoint that suits us comfortably, one that fits right. Yet, regardless of perspective, a fact that is indisputable is this: Reggae Music and the Wailers transformed the musical landscape in less than a decade after its documented birth. And this is why ‘Triumphantly we must all sing and sing and sing...”

From the cool hills of Mandeville, Jamaica, emerges reggae vocalist SKARI (Rosheed Fullerton b. 30.11.88) dropping his latest song ‘run this nation’ on Brighton based ‘roots garden’ label. The track released on 11.02.2020 show that “his sweet vocal tones and singjay style deliver a heartfelt & militant message as he outlines the injustices of Jamaica’s land tax and corrupted socio-political system...” (Roots Garden Record Store) Previous offerings are in contrast to that track from SKARI. Lonely Girl (2018) is a sexy, classic love song published by the UK King 45 label. Check out the absolutely sublime and haunting trumpet played by the legendary Patrick Tenyue. Laid back bass played by the one and only Tallis-Ites (Jahmel Ellison) Keeping the beat is Gavin Sant aka ‘Fullness’, drummer and member of ‘Dubheart’, self-proclaimed real roots reggae band. One Love (2015) is a love song of a different kind. And the sound is quite different - more digital and stripped back in comparison to Lonely Girl although horns by Shofar Horns punctuate the lyrics throughout. Themes of Universal love, Rasta love and a yearning for repatriation to the Motherland are woven throughout the track, ably bound together by a more youthful sounding Skari.
