ØFDREAM - TRILOGY

Ø F D R E A M  -  T R I L O G Y
volume up


in May 2019 a gifted young Parisian DJ took his life
he went by the name - øfdream

he had/has very little internet presence
stumbling across a YouTube clip w/his beats on it
masterfully executed

it was like they were unfinished pieces
brilliant and yet crying out for closure
safe to say that he started 
and I finished them

I took 3 of my favourite tracks from the 12 or so I found
remixed and did videos for each

I AM FREE

I don't have to tell you things are bad
everyone knows they're bad
it's a depression - everybody's out of work 
or scared or scared of losing their job

the dollar buys a nickel's worth
banks are going bust
shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter

so, I want you to get up now 
and go to the window
open it and stick your head out and YELL
I'm as mad as hell
and I'm not going to take this 
anymore

FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH
the story behind reach for the sky

he who gives away shall have real gain 
he who subdues himself shall be free 
and shall cease to be a slave of passions 
the righteous man casts off evil
and by rooting out lust, bitterness, and illusion
do we reach nirvana

STEAL YOUR COLD

I think that's all a form 
of wanting to let go, of wanting to get out
 It's not something easily described 
or understood

I lost you somewhere oversees

and I held on to the sleeve of your coat

I would burn to see you

FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH:  
the story behind I'm Steady


it's all good - I'm steady

a couple of weeks ago, I was surfing youtube
and came across this amazing track w/a single pic
there were no music credits

I downloaded it anyway; imported it into logic and started a simple remix
adding instruments, voices & visual clips I found; launching it

curious and even tormented, I scoured for more info
and found out that the music was of a young French DJ
going by the name of Øfdream and that he had recently committed suicide

his internet presence is/was almost non existent
he only uploaded 8 tracks (that I could find) and this second piece
was one that felt unfinished to me
a more comprehensive undertaking
felt appropriate - more work
worth it

it was my mission - to finish what he started

envisioning collisions
converting chaos

interesting that I found him just as he chose to leave us
every Øfdream track I've heard is brilliant
and we've lost a truly gifted musical soul

SWEEP

the floor you walk on is smooth

there is no ground there

magic begins with blood outside
there are trees with concrete under their roots

but I have passed the tombs of kings
