    in 2022, i worked with Sacred Fawn to make new versions of 2 songs from "in the light of total love" reimagined for the transcendental dance floor. since then, these remixes have been played at almost every burnt-feathers live event -- they have been integral in directing the shows energetically.

    i had just begun work on finally releasing this music physically when i heard the news of Dot's passing. never before has synchronicity been so heartbreaking. suddenly, this joyous project took on a new weight.

    rest in peace, Dot. thank you for making this music with me. miss you and love you always.

    this is a 7" plastic record, lathe-cut by Audio Geography Studios, with two pages of insert art by myself & Dot. 30 in total.

lyrics

remember when cutting was enough?
remember when all we wanted was pain, or blood?
it was so easy to get in a place like this
especially for, you know, people like us.

but when gore proves to be insufficient
there are plenty of other methods for extracting sin

and when they get your spirit
they clean it off and make it unrecognizable to itself.
then they put it back in
and it tries again.

why does the healing hurt so much more?
(because it's surrender?
because it's vulnerability?
because everybody sees something complete
and wants their own piece?)

oh, is this where i need to be, or am i
saving an ill-gotten seat?

i see the g-d in you and that's what terrifies me.
the worst in me comes forth and prostrates in your presence,
and i break upon your rocks
every time.

i see the g-d in you and that's what invigorates me.
the best in me comes forth and prostrates in your presence,
and i break upon your rocks
every time.

good night, whoever you are.
walk in light, whoever you are.
remove my ability to lie to the people i love,
or at least make the lies true.
don't let me die, whoever you are.
