Thee Up and Coming Album Songs: or, yes we have songs by Thee UM



Greetings fellow travelers,

We have a special treat for you all. Circa 2001-2005 we not only wrote an album (which we never published or did much with, besides give it to people and let them listen). Anyway, we wrote this untitled album, which are track 8-12 (mainly), and it sat around on this or that hardrive, cd, whatever. So, finally we have decided that not only will we release that, but all the works we did with our soundwork partner at that time Phil Indrick, who will be known as Mr. Pi, or just Pi. Anyway, Pi and Thee UM created this here album. It was written off the cuff, as are all our works (most -- we do go back and re-work some, improve them over time by repeatedly playing them), and it was done on cheap tape-records, old PCs running Win98, and the like. So, what we are planning is to take the songs we had written and re-do them for an LP to come out in 2015/2016 some time. Its the third album on our list of albums or soundwork projects. Anyway, we wanted to point out a few tunes that really highlight what will be coming down the pike in 2015-16. We are just going to list them and let you all check them out for yourselves. We prob. have more to say about them, but not now.

ALL AFOREMENTIONED SONG HERE

The Broken Music Box (released)

The Broken Music Box, by Phil Indrick (Mr. Pi) & Thee UM is now RELEASED FOR FREE (soundcloud)

What is this? Why do you care? Its our Glitch Project, sound/keyboard (its the glitched instrument) -- which made the basis for this project... we worked all sounds and ideas around its glitching (even when you don't hear glitch its there glitch, informing everything we construct... of course we 'de-glitched' a lot of it for sound continuity, but that keyboard malfunctioning was the heart of the project.

We will re-explain...

This is The Broken Music Box, by Phil Indric(k) and Thee Uncondemning Monk

https://soundcloud.com/theeuncondemningmomus/sets/the-broken-music-box

This was our 1st -- First -- GLITCH PROJECT ---

The year was 2002,

One winter day, in Binghamton, New York (USA), during one of our frequent drunken episodes, Phil and Momus, who normally had a few after we were both done with our work (Phil was a bell-hop, and Momus was a stay at home telemarketer, private for an auto-insurance company that two woman owned,) and so after work was done and Phil got home we tie one on, get all drunken & high, get Momus all RAW with his bad self, honesty and truth not far behind that mouth o.v. Momus... seriously, Momus has a Mouth... a really brutally honest mouth, that prob. knows no bounds... well, Phil liked it and would encourage the Mouth of Momus to come out and play some music... well one day the batteries on our keyboard started to die... we where using it for its beats, you know how those 'cheap' keyboards would have like all the so-called standard, samba, mamba, beats? well, it would like try to play the pattern but it couldn't but still wanted too (batteries... that are about to die, or all dead minus one or two, whatever it takes to make it work but not -- to glitch or not to glitch is never a question)

... well let's start or I wanna tell this again

so you see/read/K-listen, okay? m-kay?

so we we had this project and it was known as the Broken Music Box, our 1st glitch sound-work... what we did was put batteries that were about to die out, into a keyboard which has beats that would play, press button beats, and it would attempt to play the pattern it was set to, but since i was running low or fluxing low on battery-power, juice, it would get all random but still in a pattern, very fun...

Mr. Pi wrote some beats, I wrote some beats... we would go back and forth with these until you have what you have here today... we only hope that Phil is as happy with the sounds as we of the Jack Frost Committee are!

Okay.. we hope you enjoy this work... its free and yeah... BUT WE REALLY REALLY NEED $$$ -- Thee Uncondemning Momus aka Al L. Aguero, is not working at the moment, he is trying for disability because of crippling bout of Rheumatoid Arthritis, IF YOU CAN HELP IN ANY WAY, MONITARILY -- this is the TIME = please send a donation (we give away our works, our sounds, we put ourselves out there for you, for us, for myself, so if you dig what we do, please help us to keep doing it... and yeah, paypal to al.aguero@gamail.com (whatever you are able to afford, what is our worth... we hope its something). The Best in Chaos and Love. Prof. Al L. Aguero aka Thee Uncondemning Momus.

Double Morrison Granted: Fusing and Slumping in Process

Double Morrison,

Ah, we are in some ways inspired by Ellis D. William's Double Crowley, just a tidbit from the name or idea of doubling a personality, the doubling aspect (but the similarity and similitude ends at the words resonations that moves towards total proliferation from any ideal-fidelity and conceptual constellations we might have or do still on other levels in other manners/terms/goals/wars/and struggles share in that accursed part maudite). Yet our doubling is of two personae, Jim Morrison and Grant Morrison (to overly self important peoples, who well, there is much that we see that we can use to allign and destroy these to images of thought, creating our constellations for destruction) which we see as complementary and comparable and therefore composite -able. As such we have made the decision to create a composite fused and slumped (the first real attempt at fusing and slumping as intended as an extension of William S. Burroughs use of the cut-up techniques, as well as his use of identity-kits).
Okay. What we are planning its to bring both of their works into contact through our soundworkings. And from this creation of a new fused and slumped personae, transform, shatter, whatever the case maybe. As we move through and further into our project which continues unfolding and revealing its value to ourselves. For new figurations and new ways onward, fueling desire now for possibilities seeded and manifestation (of our unconscious) to come. Okay. More on this some other time.

Thee Uncondemning Momus (M.O.N.K.)

We Are - Erasure Doing Until Undone

And Finally,

We have reached the stage where we will be putting on the masks of history, wearing the names, as we begin so exhaustion to erasure. Exploring along our way, find out what works and does not work for us in our quest to exhaust and erase. We will be starting with Jim Morrison and other figure currently to dangerous to speak of. In time. In time (as legions say). And so, we will take on the name, the poetical clown, Morrison, and attempt to brush the genius that was this soul as we recreate renditions never duplication; always inspired by soul. This is but the first step, the first figuration in a parade yet to coum. But its couming, its on the horizon with Morrison darling. And even if the Door the movie was a sham, it was a glitter soulful sham of mythic proportions and we are after soul. Soul in the sense that Howard Bloom means soul when he speaks of the artists he has help form - their souls.

And so. We have taken our first step. We are not happy with it, but it is ours and it has begun. We now turn to our keys to construct a more fitting soundwork for this song. And yet here is A Little Game Too. And so, we continue on our works. We continue to work on the Eps and Lps. We know that we will have something out for Feb. 5th 2015. We are looking into netlabels and their possibilities before releasing a bandcamp. But no matter what, there will be something by Feb. 5th 2015. If not earlier, like prob an Ep (to get up warmed up with BandCamp and really the whole Ep/Lp 'album' as a whole from parts process) for Thanks Giving. That will be a hoot as you can imagine. And then off course an XMESS Ep. Because we LOVE XMESS. And then yeah we should be in good shape and so should the tracks for our Lp(s). And by then we will know where we are with any netlabels. Of course, we will keep you all informed. We appreciate those that appreciate and those that we have come to collaborate with because of this project. And in many ways this project has only now just begun. Okay. Onto the mad parade, its speed and intensity, that is in the fray - we will take it phase by phase... welcome to the mad parade, fuck me until I see god - until divinity - until i see beyond the veil and meet the entities -- fuck me, anally that is the sex exhaustion secret of the OTO - Go Crowley -- Go Foucault.

Thee Uncondemning Monk & Thee Uncondemning Momus: erasure and change(s)

Greetings to all,

We want to take some time to explain our name change. Please note that the blog site url will remain the same. It will remain theeuncondemningmonk.blogspot.com or theeum.net. We are not changing that because it would just cause too much confusion and needless work. And confusion nor needless work is just not very desirable at the moment. But if, if we ever do do that, then we will let everyone know via this here blog-site.

Okay, so why Momus? Why not Monk? Well, as people have noted Thee Uncondemning Monk has never really been all that non-judgmental and furthermore and more importantly we are, and have been, seeking paradoxical opposites for a process of nullification of the in-dividual identity (see the blogs description -- that is what its all about). And so it finally has became time to caste off the name Monk, the title Monk, and to embrace Momus. Destroy yourself. Destroy all rational thought. Undo Reasons chains. We are Thee Uncondemning Momus (Açma-Allah). What does that all mean? You are on an internet capable device. Go and seek! Butter-butt we do have this to say to light thee way:
"We do not condemn when we judge. We do not judge when we condemn," Thee Uncondemning Momus

And so - there are going to be changes, ramifications, that have yet to play out, spin out in time/space.

Currently we are engage in a few projects. We want to take the time to go over what we can, speak about, now. Okay. We have also been doing a lot of drum work. And we are working on a A-E process of creating a new cut-up work. We are using a lecture by W. S. Burroughs that we have taken 10 mins of, and cut-that-up into itself. The result is basically a description of the project itself. That we very interesting and encouraging. Anyway here is the process we have designed for his work. We hope that upon reading it, you get what we are doing (its basically an exercise we were inspired to create), perhaps genius will bless us, possess us in its wake. Okay.


Overview of our current cut-up project:

A*) original lecture or voice audio (10 min long)
B*) Cut-up 10 min audio into itself, overlays and cut-ins (copy over or add in -this might increase or decrease the 10 min audio)
C*) added voice phenomena cut-up and into audio (which will prob. no longer be 10 min long)
D*) trance drumming layered in
E*) binaural tones (and or synth added - with panning)
*EQ-ing the work and other cosmetic and effects can happen at any point
here is the original lecture our stage alpha 10min was taken from a YouTube video William S. Burroughs lecture, July 20, 1976, on paranormal, EVP, text+tape cut-ups, prognostication.



As we said, we have been doing more drumming and here is a taste of what that sounds like: Duce Por De La No Uno Mister.

Okay. We are also doing a tarot project. We are working on creating a deck from a description that goes back at lest to the early 1800s, if not further, we are not sure. We are not sure about that, but we do know that we have never seen its economic or minimalist symbology present by any deck. And we have seen a lot of decks in our life. Note that we are not one of those persons that thinks all decks are equal in the sense of equally useful, equally valuable, equally knowledgable in terms of what they are attempting to do. We have a few favorite decks. Our Top Two are The Thoth Deck (Frater AC), and the Tarot de Marseille (Camion-Jodorowsky). All we can say right now it that we are working with another person who will not yet be named, from a book on the history and practice of magick. As the project comes closer to fruition, we will then start dolling out some real details. Until then...



Our last projekt is our Halloween DKMU Glamour-Bombings. 

On that work we will remain silent, except for this, we are going to be working with the Red King, White Queen, Ellis/Red Queen, and are in the design test phase now. We will give a full report after the glamour-bombing is completed. 

Okay. That is all for now. Until next time... rock!

Thee Coyotel Network, Thee Uncondemning Monk, and Prankster-Terrorist (updates)

Greetings from At-Tawwad and Thee Uncondemning Monk,

As we all have been away, and much has occurred since 2013, we have more (perhaps many more) updates to give you all. One of these updates is the release of the newest Coyotel Network text known as, The Tricksters Torah. The Tricksters Torah put out by Magus Steven J. Leyba, is the continuation of the book that started with The Tricksters Bible, grew into The Tricksters Koran (which as deleted for unsaid reason by the publisher, we know its because of the title, as the Torah was left untouched and has the same material plus more). As such, Al-Barr, with two others, Saz-q Denny-qq, and Jason P. Doherty, together we three created a Third Mind type piece for The Tricksters Torah. You can get a copy of the complete Torah, via Amazon. We will be creating a free pdf for the 'chapter'/text that we did for The Tricksters Koran: a Never Ending Book, and will be giving that chapter freely, in its entirety, to those who know how to seek and find it. Knock on the door and coum inside Thee Network.


Okay. So if you can, we encourage you to check out The Tricksters Torah: a Never Ending Book, and our third mind text, "The Dojo Of Thee PRANKSTER TERRORIST," by Al-Barr Um Allah, Saz-q Denny-qq, & Jason P. Doherty. Both Saz-q and Jason have more works that you might also enjoy.

Concerning past projects, Al-Barr has passed the brushes onto At-Tawwad, which means that At-Tawwad will take up the painting projects of Al-Barr and move them into new splaces. Also, Aglaeca, who first channeled Thee Uncondemning Monk, has also be speaking to a spark of the soul that is (thee name) of that ancient Roman citizen Marcus Licinius Crassus. Where this will lead is anyone's idea, but new developments are underfoot. We cannot say more at this time, but At-Tawwad has been speaking with Thee Uncondemning Monk and Aglaeca, and the others on The Jack Frost Committee, and it seems that there might be a book underway. A book that more fully explains the project that is Thee Uncondemning Monk, as opposed to that personae and psychick transmission. Speaking of book and of Coyotel Satan, Rev. A. A. (a friend of thee network) continues to work on his book on the art-war of Rev. Steven J. Leyba. In particular we direct those interested in understanding more about not only Rev. Leyba but this here project, see the Alchemical POORtrait section of his work. Butter-butt yes, the book on Leyba's work is still under way. And Rev. A. A. ov Thee Coyotel Satanic Network has told us that there have been many breakthroughs in regards to connecting Leyba's work with not only art history, but the very philosophy that has sprung around art in the Western Philosophical Tradition. Rev. A.A. is making critical use of concepts from Walter Benjamin, as Rev. A.A. sees Leyba's magickal approach to painting as a way of painting the aura back into works of mechanical reproduction. Furthermore, Rev. A.A. also understand that Rev. Leyba's definition of Art as a salvation of the term, from the oblivion of meaning all things, thereby meaning nothing, and is using the work of Kant (and others) to highlight the genius aspect (not ingenious) of the Sublime that is created via "great" works of art (of course we question this greatness and Kant is taken in a critical manner, not merely agreed with or used as such). So, that work, we here at Thee UM are told is going well and still underway. Okay. Moving on.


The Prankster Terrorist transformation is all but complete. During this Halloween season we will be creating new soundworks, new visual works, new works that are gear towards something known as glamour bombing. For more information on that project, see DKMU (and join their irc, via irc.hypersigil.org #dumus  -- there is also a facebook group that is being slimmed down as we speak, that way we can get back to those who are active members instead of those who merely want to use the group as a dump for self-promotion AND nothing more -- there are plenty of other groups where you can do that). As such, join the DKMU forum to learn more.

At-Tawwad is also still working with The Infinity Network. The Infinity Network is working to reconstruct their website. We have taken a break from AIN23 but will also be getting back into action with them, now that all our members are feeling better, and are returning to some sesemblancef health. As such thee group has been engaged in Buddha Medicine, and has released this work as a tribute and testimony to our use of this powerful technique. We are also exploring the realities of Ketamine Therapy for pain releif and depression, and will post about that if and when we are sucessful in obtaining treatment, as its costly, new or experimental, and not covered by insurance, of course, we will be doing our own experiments eitherway, butter-but we thought we'd let ye all know about this new approach and use of Special-K. Anyway, that is all we have for now, stay tuned for new posts couming soon... until then, as it is, so be it, as we will, so mote it be, Love___Will ---- -infinity to 23.36.42.92.158.663.666.669 unto +infinity.

Baroque-Renaissance-Glitch

Ello,

We have not posted in a while. Quite a bit has happened/changed since our last posts. So first lets clear up some old business before moving into the heart (the entitled -- lol) portion of this here post.

The Prophet Muhammad-Leyba Connector ov Coyotel Network
Old Biz: Yes, The Satanic Children's Album is still a working project. We hope to work with the Satanic Temple, and are in contact with them via the Coyotel Network. So yes that project is still on and yes it does (not) or no the project doesn't depend on the Satanic Temple's involvement. Ultimately for us, at least the the forefront of our mind - concerning working with the Satanic Temple, is their Atheism. Butter-butt please do not get us wrong wrong, we are not advocating for a replacement demiurge. And in the spirit of anti-worship or non-worship we insist that we are not advocating slave-master mentality per the Big Other aka God (of Abraham). No our contention with their professed atheism is not about that, rather is about being open to the reality that atheism is dogmatic and that, in truth, we don't really know what matter is, although we name it and are aware of some of its properties. Okay. Anyway, we are going to go much further into this matter, in fact that is all we have to say on that subject (for now). Moving on...

 
Double-Brained LS Clover, No. 3



We are no longer actively working with Al-Barr. And in their steed we are now working with At-Tawwab um Allah (At-Tawwb or AT or @ or @um for short). So that is new, it's so new that we don't have much to say on it, butter-but we do smell a 99 names of undoing approaching, perhaps it will be our Halloween special treat?
                                   





And that brings us to Baroque-Renaissance Glitch. They (people, i have heard people repeat this) say, that in our contemporary era, one can no longer be a Renaissance person (could one ever, Master Plato?) --  because there is simply too much to know. Butter-butt we must still try, must we not (no it matters not, and yet). As we have been thinking about this, it occurs to us that, if a PhD takes about 8 years or lets say 10 years (to become at least ABD, aka "all but done," leaving just a dissertation to do) or better yet, if in 10 years you can achieve a masters' degree in a subject/field, then how many masters degrees could one potentially rack-up, saying said person started after the age of 23. IF they live to 50 -that that is at least four masters degrees (now, we are not saying the university is anything important or special, we are using it to make a point, please do not think we are advocating for the university, it is not needed and is bad for the soul in its current form - at least in the US). But really, one could get all those base, prerequisite, 2 year courses, done in about 10 years, and then ever 4-6 yrs get their BA to MA work done. My point is that once one has their prerequisites done it doesn't take as long to get the next MA, at least once one has their first MA in that particular field. Okay, I hope you see my point, which is that one can learn a butt load of information, practical, theoretical, useful, useless, all kinds or potential stuff -- and yet, jack of all trades masters none (hmmm, maybe so/maybe not -mastery is such a flawed concept). Yet t/here is the rub, either way, we do this in a Baroque type fashion. At least in Thee Uncondemning Monk's case this appears to be true. We're toggling between Gothic Romantics and Enlightenment philosophic quests, between stress and storm and calm ennui towards living liff. The very earth under our feet is moving, no stable foundation, we appear out of nowhere resting in space. Oh dear! Yes, as such our Renaissance is Baroque and Glitchy. Very Glitch is our Baroque-Renaissance, indeed. And so, with that in mind we figure that being a soul, building a soul - or destroying a mold is a process of being and becoming. In flux we change towards the ideal sun until the veil droops, drops, and lifted, we crash into points we've mapped onto reality.

Okay. So, its a thought we have been having and will be working with it, as well as with At-Tawwab. Until Then Check out our latest sound-work (AND BY ALLAH YOU NEED BASS BASS BASS or this shit ain't gunna mean dick!). Also we have started painting! Al-Barr has given the brushed to At-Tawwab, and finally The Jack Frost Committee is painting. As you can see from the interspersed in the article. Anyway, enjoy our latest sound work warm up.

Back with Electronic Psychic Hygiene

In Morocco, magic is practiced more assiduously than hygiene, though, indeed, ecstatic dancing to music of the brotherhoods may be called a form of psychic hygiene. - Gysin, The Ticket That Exploded

Indeed, those who know of our soundwerk know its less about 'music' as it is about exploration of sound and a being with the intensities and flows, as a type of psychic hygiene. Often we will even label our works as such. Recently we have restarted upon electronic works, as our main system is now online and fully functional. The small netbook we were using to get by just didn't cut it for more intensive works and sound emulations. And so we have restarted: The Devils Still Inside, Daily Psychick Hygienic Soundwerkings. The Newest jams can be found on our soundcloud.


We continue to work with the Keepers of the Fire (KotF) to produce a 2nd LP and perhaps work on a few new additional projects. We are considering doing a sort of promotional work for our most recent involvement, Thee Network. Thee Network is continuation of our work building autonomous networks of allies for individual sovereignty and collective autonomy. Thee next work of Thee Network is aimed at enjoining with others to solve what Burroughs phrase, "the algebra of need", that we might become sovereign individuals and autonomous collectives, dedicated to ourselves and each other through thee network. Together we can create an exit we can share. Thee Network is unmediated Unity. Please join with us, as Al-Barr, at Thee Network: www.TheeNetwork.net and learn more about our togetherness.

Okay, that is all the news thus far... continue to maintain and work for unmediated unity, unmediated by state, unmediated by church... autonomous individual each and every one.
