New SoundCloud Artist Shoutout: B. Hasemeyer & Numbers In The Dream (Bury The Plan)

The link for the newest article is posted above. We almost for got to post this for a second. :)

Nobody (Rehearsal 11/28/18)




We have another video out, this time of us practicing "Nobody" for future shows. Nobody is one of our Waking Dream song favorites and seems to be highly favored among SoundCloud musicians and music lovers who know our music.

The video above was the 7th and final take for the evening rehearsal. It turned into quite the extended version of Nobody and into a jam we could both stand to post. .

In even better news, we just so happened to record a second video with a different camera. The sound quality is not as good during this take (Take 1) of the same rehearsal.  In this video (which is also the shorter version) you get to see closeup how Lyra plays "Nobody." I'm not going to spoil it for you but feel free to take a look at both videos  to see how we would play out at venues (it's on the to-do list) and to see how Waking Dream improvises and jams to this particular track.


 The link is shown below.


Waking Dream Video: "Nobody" November 28 Rehearsal (Lyra Closeup Version)


We hope you enjoy and thank you. This has been a very special Disco Moon Girl Production!

Love always,

NUEVE ÁNGELES DE LA MUERTE (K-EFFECT & WAKING DREAM) Raw Demo Version *OFFICIAL VERSION COMING SOON*




LINK TO DEMO OF NINE DEATH ANGELES/NUEVE ÁNGELES DE LA MUERTE BELOW


BandCamp Link To Nine Death Angels/Nueve Ángeles De La Muerte by K-Effect & Waking Dream


SoundCloud Link To Nine Death Angels/Nueve Ángeles De La Muerte by K-Effect & Waking Dream

                               Now Available on BandCamp and SoundCloud!


Nueve Ángeles De La Muerte the project came about as an idea after K-Effect aka David Martin of Spain spoke to Lyra Daydream & Liz Lund during the summer of 2018. The two projects came together with an idea for something Waking Dream had never done before, which is to create a dark disco track (yes, a dance track.)

                                  Link To K-Effect Mastering's SoundCloud

It was then that Martin sent Lyra and Liz a mastered track and the pair thought to themselves that perhaps this would be the perfect opportunity to create something fall worthy! And so it was! The pair worked steadily to create a vocal ambience worth talking about. The new vocal tracks have been sent away to Martin (K-Effect) as of today, and we will see the official version come to fruition shortly this November. This track will also be featured on Waking Dream's new upcoming album.



Stay tuned!

HEXES and PRAYERS

A day too short for hexes
A day to0 tall for prayers 
A day too short for hexes
A day to0 tall for prayers

..........................................

What now, what now
They look, they look
and then, and then
words cut

A pause to a promise
unanswered-all silent
What can be said
There is no dawn 

It could, It could,
could have been said
Ashes remain,
for my sadness to spread

.................................

Velvet red pouch,
blood soaked dread,
what now, what now,
what happens now?

Lips like grinders,
3 tongues that spin
The fangs come out,
and the spikes sink in

......................................

A day too short for hexes
A day to tall for prayers 
A day too short for hexes 
A day to tall for prayers

Lips like grinders,
3 tongues that spin
The fangs come out,
and the spikes sink in

........................................

A day too short for hexes
A day too tall for prayers
A day too short for hexes
A day too tall for prayers

........................................

Lips like grinders,
3 tongues that spin
The fangs come out,
and the spikes sink in

What now, what now
They look, they look
and then, and then
words cut

........................................

It could, It could,
could have been said
Ashes remain,
for my sadness to spread

Lips like grinders,
3 tongues that spin
The fangs come out,
and the spikes sink in

........................................

A day too short for hexes
A day too tall for prayers
A day too short for hexes
A day too tall for prayers

........................................

(Pause)

No further down this road 
No distance shall I go
To uncover grave horrors
that one should never know

Apple Eyes

Apple seeds and cyanide
open wide my love, it's fine
It's now time to say goodnight,
and everything's alright
In the earth there was a tree
softly smiled and sang to me
fed me apples patiently
"young one the seeds are good for thee"

Belladonna in the air
sweetly sleeping
cleansed with care
My delight, it seems unfair
A beauty you are a bird, ensnared
Gaze upon your apple eyes
Green just like this shade of night
Move no more and bathe in light
Too lovely to feel will to fight


Gasping green & coughing red
There's no evil in this bed dear
I shall feed you monkshood bread
To cure the devil in your head
wolfsbane soup & foxglove eyes
stroke your hair 
Look to green skies dear
Have no fear, I'll tell you why
Lovely you are, too young to die

The Meadow

Lying in the meadow,
fighting somewhere past the sea
chopping in the meadow
bludgeoning everyone I see

This is the way we are,
the way we've been
& always will be
This is a passing point
River anoint
the prowling switch fiend
I am my mother's son
Inside the womb
my father has won
I am the lasting voice
the rite of choice,
great village of blood

In the thicket
of our cavernous reign
I see a pattern
Fond memory of pain

Lying in the meadow
eating somewhere past the sea
watching in the meadow
butchering anyone I see

In the thicket
of our cavernous reign
I see a pattern
an image of grain

A way to waste your sight
Who tore the cloud
in blood covered drops
the senses start to bend
it all will end
What is that dark blotch?
I've faded out all black
What happened here,
and when, I know not
The pleasured clarity,
the rarity
of licking blood spots

In the thicket.
injury I feign
All in timing
Your loss is my gain

Lying in the meadow
Fighting there outside the sea
Burning in the meadow
On fire everyone I see

It is for He...

The Man Plant

I wonder what this is growing?
It seems to live here
It exhibits intelligent features.

Here in my arm.
Here in my arm,
it lives still.

Under the skin
Under the skin
It travels with vine like tentacles
and slips its way
right into my skull

to eat my thoughts
to eat my thoughts

It's witchcraft, isn't it?
As they'd say
in the stained glass house
where the Christians lay

I wonder how it's doing there
There in my skull
There in my skull
It grows old
And it's been years
and I only know that it's


eating my thoughts.
eating my thoughts.

I ask again and again and again...

Bend down to reach over the bridge
And look to the water below my friend
So that you'll be grown
that you'll be grown

a specimen full
crushing me slowly
emerald green and
inside my skull
inside my skull

It eats my thoughts.

New Wordpress Webpage & the SoundCloud Community of Doom


So, we should probably mention that a Wordpress webpage is now in development. So far, it is just that: a development. However, it officially contains our videos, links to our tracks and well written web content.


 (Lyra Daydream modeling for ENTRANCE video "Always The Right time"with Guy Blakeslee)

We're feeling super accomplished at the moment, even though it's going to take a lot of catching up to do, to get Wordpress to the level that BlogSpot is currently at.



                                                    Wordpress Page At The Link (Below)

                                                  https://discomoongirl.wordpress.com/


Here on BlogSpot also known as Blogger, we have officially written and published several articles, official posts & updates. We have grown here and it has been a rewarding experience keeping up with all of this for two years and being able to have complete control writing during this period of time, as well as creating music for the general public (and for our fellow SoundClouders especially.)


                                                                 Cannibal Fae 2016


                                                          Stink Beetles & Sprites 2017


                                                        Pitchforks Are For Pilgrims 2018

Now, let it be known that if you are an artist that is following the creative path rather than the easier path and/or if you are a SoundCloud musician, then you are our ally. For those who don't know yet, we created a SoundCloud community also known as the "SoundCloud Community of Doom."

                                               

                                       https://www.facebook.com/groups/280421719449166/

                                           SoundCloud Community Of Doom Link (Above)

There are many reasons as to why this FaceBook page was created. If artists are to live as though art is no longer important, then what is the point of any of this, if we can't be ourselves? The page is here to make it easier and more personable for SoundCloud music enthusiasts & musicians to schedule, plan and have meet-ups together , to personally visit one-on-one with one another, to form online and offline music and business relationships & connects, to ask for or answer advice of fellow SoundClouders, and of course, to COLLABORATE MUSICALLY............ <3


Th icon above was created by artist Astarte23.





It chosen as our first cover photo for the group by one of our founders, underground music artist Mariam Zohra, who is also known by her SoundCloud nick name "Myrh" and her collaboration & visual arts webpage, TaRka.




           This is one of Myrh's collaborations with the music artist Unearth Noise. (Above)

The SoundCloud Community of Doom webpage as well as its Google+ counterpart are slowly growing only after a few short days. Both pages are under the same name and are open to the general public, but are especially created for those affiliated with SoundCloud.

We'll keep you posted on more updates and developments to both the Community & to Wordpress.

-Liz & Lyra

Fire Sprites Nostalgia (Official Music Video) by Waking Dream





Definitely sounds better with headphones ladies and gentlemen. But after to listening to the track with and without headphones, I liked it the second time. If you like the video please show support by visiting our YouTube channel and possibly leaving a like and subscribe for this work. Hopefully you enjoyed this video. We appreciate your support and it really does mean. It's part of the reason why would put so much effort into this one. We wanted others to be able to sit thru 11 minutes of music video so we did our best to see to it that the video was engaging, especially since we have admittedly low attentions. Feel free and don't shy to leave comments on the bottom, as well as criticisms because criticisms are important for learning and improving. Thank you so much. And I hope that this time what we posted was especially captivating.

Love, Waking Dream

So what do you think of our new ads?



I'm really undecided about which one I like the best. There are only so many pictures that one can take when one is both uncontrollably bored and sleep deprived.... and yes I'm fully aware that one of the photos are too big for the page and falling off of it. Why must everyone ruin my good time damn it?



Let us know what you think and we promise right after to cure the common cold with a strong placebo effect and try to get some zzzz's somehow. <3 -Lyra Daydream & Liz Lund aka (Waking Dream)

Dear Diary -By Disco Moon Girl

Dear Diary,


Oh, how lovely it is. Sunshine and fresh air. The flowers and the trees. The bushes and the wind. And that darling tornado over yonder headed my way. Ravishing! Simply stupendous! Oh look at the low hanging clouds and that beautiful green sky. So powerful! So threatening!  I could watch it spin all day. 

Oh dear, what was that? There seems to be the sound of a train in the distance. Where's Dorothy when you need her? 

Oh crap! And my house now seems to have a large hole in it, but it is a ravishing hole just the same. Simply lovely. Okay, well, gotta go and call that home owner's insurance. 

Oh shit. It appears that I only have one arm. Well, perhaps I can use my other arm to dial 911, instead of writing in this damned diary. Anyways, talk to you soon, if I don't bleed out first. If I do not bleed out, I will invest in a new robot arm to go with my smiling moon face. 


Sincerely... and with love,  


Disco Moon Girl

Once upon a time two friends named Lyra & Liz went into the woods together. They were there to see the sites of the wild and the exquisite rain forest, in which long ago they had heard so much about from fellow passersby. There they saw a strange tree in the distance. Twisted, misshapen, beautiful. It beckoned them to come closer.



It’s echoes were low and unheard aloud except within the inside of their skulls. Somehow it knew what they were thinking. It knew that they could only spectate and witness such a powerful and beautiful creation of nature. "Liz and Lyra," it said, “do you hear me?”







 Lyra and Liz looked at one another. “Did you hear that?” asked Lyra. Liz nodded in her silence. And once again the tree spoke. “Come closer…You may touch the bark, my roots,and my leaves. And you can be the first and only humans to ever enter the house of the dead.”


"What a lovely specimen of tree indeed" exclaimed Liz. “How it talks to us and asks us to enter its house.”

“But did it say 'dead' or was I imagining that?,” asked Lyra.

“No that is what you heard. I heard it say so. The house of the dead,” said Liz.


They both looked at each other and then back at the tree, awaiting its next words. Nothing came. They continued to do as most travelers do. Take lots of pictures, worship the tree and all of nature, sing "We are 138" by the Misfits at the top of their lungs, and say silly things such as "this feels like it would be in a film about 'Nam for some reason."




Then all of sudden, there was a blood curdling growl. And it lit up all within sight.  The two girls saw a bright light in the distance. Their eyes began to grow wide with fear. The monstrous noise was coming from inside the tree...................



This was the last known footage of them taken on July 1st. At this time, this is all the information we have of their whereabouts, but rest assured. We will not be lazy. Well, maybe we'll be lazy. It's on our list of things to do, but take a look for yourself. We do know that it began to rain....

"Suicidee" by Waking Dream * May 19th Show @ CAFFEINE UNDERGROUND*



You Tube Page:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCe4LearGiC2oc_tNOkz6tGw/videos?view_as=subscriber


This video is not intended to offend nor be insensitive to the subject of suicide, nor is it based on anyone in particular. It is simply a snapshot of the possible perceptions of someone who does have these tendencies. Mental illness in general should not be a hush, hush topic, as it is more common than one would believe and thus, suicidal tendencies are as well.


Regardless, this is our first live show held at the Caffeine Underground on May 19th. If you like this video feel free to like and subscribe to our YouTube page on the link above. Thank you for your support and understanding. More videos to come.
