PRAY TO THE PROMPT: a Dowland Lachrimae trip-hop on the new altar and the old one

A 1:55 trip hop short. Dowland's Lachrimae tear drop tetrachord from 1604 recomposed as half time downtempo. Plan 9 the bunny kneels at a cursor candle altar while Anubis weighs holy books against a USB stick on the scale of Maat. Bavarian Governor delivers the spoken word. Anubis chants ancient Egyptian funerary phrases underneath. Matrix style cascades of ancient glyphs fall behind everything, then disperse as a galaxy spiral takes over and the universe becomes the universal symbol. Plan 9 says farewell in Tibetan.

THE KEYS TO POWER: a Plan 9 rap-spit duet on why power corrupts, structurally, not morally

A machine-tragedy retelling of selectorate theory as an in-tune EDM rap duet. Plan 9 Bunny takes an empty throne meaning to be good; OG Bobby Johnson, the Doberman, Anubis, the System, raps the three Rules of Power back at him until the cage is complete. D minor, 132 BPM, hero lead from bar one, acid bass and orchestral strings, an autotuned duet locked to the beat, a Stranger-Things-cricket EDM intro, and a Plan 9 goodbye in Czech. CC BY 4.0.
