False Light - Out 7/25
For what will be @ancientfuturecollective’s first release, I teamed up with hands down one of the greatest hip-hop lyricists and metaphorical geniuses of our generation, @decamusic, to bring a bass-heavy, total reimagination of ‘False Light.’
Out everywhere next Thursday, 7/25.
Pre-save in bio 🤝 It really helps please the algorithm overlords.
Such a huge honor to work with Deca. If you know, you know. If not, sit down, buckle up, and do yourself the favor of diving into his entire discography.
Clip is of us in Costa Rica prepping for him to come up during my Envision set to perform this remix 🫡
Stoked for this.

Solstice (Ruby Chase Remix)
Happy Solstice y’all 🌀 The Ruby Chase remix of my track ‘Solstice’ is out now everywhere via @gravitasrecordings 🙏🏼
Today, the the Sun (our local Creator), will shine for what is the longest day of the year. The summer solstice is a multifaceted event with deep cultural, environmental, and spiritual significance. It serves as a reminder of our connection to the cosmos and the rhythms of nature, and has influenced traditions across the globe.
This day has been celebrated for millennia by a variety of ancient cultures. Numerous sacred sites in different spots in the world are also precisely aligned with the Sun’s movement on the Summer Solstice. This includes Stonehenge, Machu Picchu, the pyramids at Giza, the Carnac Stones, the Bighorn Medicine Wheel, and many more, demonstrating the significance of the Solstice to supposedly “unrelated” civilizations 🧐
Many of these cultures also celebrated the Summer Solstice with festivals, dance, music, and community gathering.
I tend to view the various movements of the Earth (time) as a beautiful cluster of sine waves nested within each other. We have the rotation of the Earth on its axis (day), the orbit around the Sun (year), the solstices and equinoxes (movement of Earth in relation to the Celestial Equator), the Precession of the Equinox (the Great Year - 25,920 years, caused by a slow wobble on the Earth’s axis), and the movement of the entire solar system around the Logos (black hole) at the center of the galaxy.
The most interesting piece of the puzzle to me discussed by ancient cultures are the ways in which the characteristics of humanity’s consciousness changes throughout these various cycles of time. This is described in great detail through concepts like the Yugas, the Zodiacal Ages, etc.
Rabbit hole homework assignment: we are now in the Dvapara Yuga (according to the short-count system). Read about the characteristics of this period of time during this portion of the Precession o

Savej @ Envision 2024
Playing the Luna stage at Envision was such a long-held dream of mine. I visualized it in full detail on a regular basis. To have now played it two years in a row feels like a blessing of a caliber that’s difficult to articulate.
The vibe at Luna on the impeccable F1 sound rig and surreal stage design is also impossible to put into words 🌀
Huge shouts to the incredibly talented guests that came up during my set: @decamusic, @lilyfangz, and the Yawanawa brothers, @ronna_yawa and @tima_souza_yawanawa 🫡
And of course, massive love to @envisionfestival for having me again, and to everyone who showed up and got down with me for what turned out to be a surprise sunrise set due to a short schedule delay. That was incredibly special 🙏🏼
I love y’all.

Savej - Envision 2024 Opening Prayer
Envision was insane per usual. Before I start posting music footage, I wanted to share this special opening prayer I made with my swamp sister @rooted_regeneration 🐊💙
We had a small schedule delay on Luna this night, so I essentially got an accidental sunrise set, which was such a perfect blessing and we got to roll into a sunrise Wacomaya with the Yawanawa brothers at the end of my set 🌅
I wish I could encapsulate the magic that is @envisionfestival and everyone who attends and plays. Words will never do it.
I love y’all. As always, thank you endlessly for having me.
Finally, thank you to my soul fam guests who came up for my set (footage soon) - @decamusic, @lilyfangz, and the Yawanawa brothers @ronna_yawa and @tima_souza_yawanawa along with @futuronativo
Til we meet again Envision🖖🏼
PS - Megan ( @rooted_regeneration ) is easily one of the most special human beings I have ever known in infinite ways - a true magical swamp creature - I HIGHLY recommend y’all follow her and watch her videos on regenerative health, food, and philosophy. She just got back on IG after a multi-year break. Show her some love, tune in, and you will not regret it.

#belief #culture #religion #spirituality #perception #epigenetics
At numerous points through the timeline spanning from the original teachings of multiple religions, the original message of the teachings were distorted - the newly altered messaging often including fear of literally eternal consequences. Why? It’s definitely interesting that many of these distortions seem to greatly aid in sociopolitical conquest and control.
Also, the ongoing conflict between various religious belief systems (many of whom allegorically point to the same truths) seems to be symptomatic of our collective inefficient ability to form a syncretic lens and dig into the deeper meaning of the original texts to see the overlap.
IMO, taking scripture at face value, especially when translated throughout time between often incompatible languages is one of the larger roots of the ensuing conflict and separation.
I’m aware this is often viewed as a sensitive subject, but I feel it’s an important one to discuss.
This is a clip from my recent podcast with Mike Tharpe, an ex-Christian pastor and friend of mine who built a new framework for himself after leaving the Church.
