about

This song was originally written as one of the last pieces by CONTRA some time in the late Summer of 2018. There is a singular recording of CONTRA performing this song with Shel on drums and Jaia playing bass. It is very rough material and is only for historical purpose. After Jaia died in October this song took on a new mind and body and began to become an extension of Jaia's rhythmic mind. Aiden said it was almost as if Jaia was writing parts through him. We played it live as an instrumental but here it is displayed with a spoken word passage in the middle. These words were written by Jaia himself. It's now, a year later that they are displayed truly for the world to see.

lyrics

THIS BODY IS OUR CAVE
An infinite and transcendental consciousness is funneled into my small and temporary humanity. Bound by abstract, unreliable and limiting language, knowledge has no where to travel. Influenced by equally unreliable senses, pandering to unnecessary physical need and desire, my choices just as limited as my knowledge.

THIS BODY IS OUR GLIMPSE
Existence only works in these reflections. A physical manifestation is necessary for direct experience, experience for knowledge. This body is a holy gift that must be loved. My brief vantage point is the only view I get.

'I' want to float and stretch across pathways of cosmic information, through all dimensions.

My favourite of Blau's self-recorded albums. The sound of this album could only have come from him and his homespun approach to writing and recording. An inspiration! Lewis Morgan
