"Thou hast made me endless,
Newz from MercabeeDear Folks, I've begun harvesting the fruit of my musical summer. I have a short piece to share with you which embodies this late-summer energy. I've been busy with the sounds of bells, drums, synthesizers, and my voice. The piano keyboard is the main axe, along with the looper. (See below) As Spirit would have it, my Saturday Concert in Duncan's Market Square has been cancelled. My deeper truth is to create another opportunity to share this music with you.

The Music of Life
I went to the glacier's edge,

where a blue lake lay. In this remote place, I sat on my pack, and gazed out on the ice. Why had I come here? A question echoed on butterfly's wings New wings born as old self dies. My Beloved, the lines on your face the curving of the glacier's ice. As my fluttering mind stills this quiet place begins to sing. Ancient, primal Self. Rhythm of Rock and Ice. I hold a note dissolve into that long note. Now your body, a song, and we are dancing, My Beloved. -JP Mercury Following 3 days alone in the Garibaldi-Mamquam wilderness

The pipe organ is a digital reconstruction of St. Annes church organ in Moseley, England. One of my jobs is with an organ builder. I design digital pipe organ systems. Pipe organs are amazing instruments. Amazingly old and complex. The first pipe organs were made in 300 BC by Greek engineers. For a long time, they were the most complicated machines ever built! I like that. Our machines of commerce and war make destruction and disillusionment. But pipe organs make beautiful, angelic sounds- echoes of Aeolus, the god of Wind. Spiritual music! Isn't that amazing? Regardless of your religion, it's easy to be moved by the sound of a pipe organ. Now with this digital organ technology, we have liberated this monster instrument from the clutches of the church. On my 12 inch, four pound laptop, the sound of hundreds of metal and wooden pipes emerges. I can conduct my musical rites to all of MY PAGAN GODS. Speak to the angels that call to me. www.vgbg.net/mercury/mus...avion-44.mp3 Bless U, -Mercury 
This one is about a year old.

It's been fermenting in my music box. I produced this by overlapping bits of improvisations I had made on the theme of snowflakes. Though I think it morphed and became something of its own, nevertheless you can still hear thoses little winter flakes swirling around in there!

I'd like to begin sharing music with my Tribe.Net community. So many people I feel kin to are linked to me through this site, and this seems like the perfect way to open up this side of myself to you.

So, my friends, here is 'Trains', an improvisation on synthesizer and live loops that Spirit fed me on August 28th, 2005. Something about this appeals to me today. A Vancouver morning cloaked in fog... I am changing and growing new seedlings... brings back the moody resonance- pushing forward, yet shrouded in MISTery-- TRAINS: vgbg.net/mercury/music-blog/trains-r.mp3

Mystereous faerie. Kind heart and loving nature. Very fortunate to be able to call Mercury a friend and brother. He has a lot to teach if you are willing to listen. May our paths cross over and over again.
