this was a freewrite that turned into my ode to techno...
my heart beats in this time by dj shiva
--------------------------------------
sonic movement
pushing pen
pushing ink
moving paper
beats mesh with word salad
and space between thoughts
i don't know what this rhythm
will bring forth
what force
in mind
springs from this
sound
spherical
lyrical
booming
bass spews strings
drawing circles
loops and love
sick notes
pursuing licks
and strokes
bring me the head of christina aguilera
i'm not done
the page ran out
but it's not over
metallic beats
broken open
cymbals sharp
as shards
march through
sizzling overtones
the speaker's blown
the record still spins
dear god
i can't stop
don't let it stop
dear krishna
buddha
allah
jehovah
don't let this beat stop
i want to keep
moving
words flow
like my hand knows
what thought comes next
predictions
predeliction
contradiction
benediction
my salvation
lies somewhere
between the
ones
and
twos
two turntables and a microphone
my revolution
lies somewhere
between
ones
and zeros
binary code
so cold?
no soul?
i don't think so
i know soul
birthed on the streets of detroit
informed by kraftwerk
calculations
and crafted computations
fuck your symbols
fuck your flags
fuck your mockery of democracy
fuck your money
the only numbers that mean anything to me
sets of three:
303
707
808
909
4/4 time
string symphonies
from computers and keys
melodies
pulled from the heart of a jaguar
the beat don't stop when
derrick may
juan atkins
richie hawtin
the beat don't stop when
aril brikha
rolando
lekebusch
mull
beyer
you've got miles
i've got mills
the beat won't stop when
the beat WON'T stop
133 bpm
lock grooves
keep going forever
no run out groove
the mix is infinite
beats are timeless
techno soul
compounds the
heart and whole
of motion
records spin like
the earth spins
begin again
bring it back
rewind my mind
don't stop
don't ever stop
the revolution WILL NOT be televised
the revolution will be synthesized
the revolution will be digitized
and the button has been pushed
so
you best
step back from the speaker
cause that first beat is gonna kick your ass
my heart beats in this time
