Do It Yourself Shall Be The Whole Of The Process.
Welcome to the first episode of Silver Star Radio, a terrestrial broadcast and digital podcast, that gives voice to musicians who are also practicing occultists, and to occultists who are also practicing musicians. The show seeks to incorporate audio and material from many different magickal traditions. Electronic musician, shamanic explorer, and information theorist Konrad Becker wrote in his essay New World Music, “new media and post-industrial data transfer are the means of subversive neurostimulation in the techno-shamanism of the global village underground,” a sentiment that I heartily agree with. Subversive neurostimulation is only one facet of the Radio-Activity that Silver Star seeks to generate. When the antenna is broadcasting, and the servers are podcasting, we seek to offer arm chair listeners a chance to become armchair magicians, via a sonic blast of initiatory currents, that will in effect help them get up out of their seats and spur them onwards to realize their own magickally artistic visions. During the next two hours of this show, your living room, car, or headphones, wherever you are listening will become a Temporary Attavistic Zone, a surreal enclave existing Outside the Circles of Time, a place where the soul will be free to operate without the usual interference patterns cast by the corporate conglomerates. So sit back, relax, put on a lead blanket and prepare yourself for another High-Voltage dose of Radio-Activity!

Peace in,

I am happy to assist in brain massages, energy cleansing, and musical refreshments. Further cerebral activations will be forthcoming. Thanks for turning on and tuning in!
Wow! Thanks, Justin, this is the most exciting thing that’s ever happened to a piece of writing I came up with! I’ve been busy, I had forgotten all about this…and didn’t know if you were using my stuff or not. I think the music fits with it well, and you read it well.
Enjoying listening to the rest of the show.
THANKYOU!
Lots of really great and diverse music. Well done! I hope to get you some more poetry sometime, and maybe also from my friend who has never been published…I think because his stuff is too psychedelic for the modern mainstream…maybe more of a niche over there in the US…
May send you some self-made music for you to vet at some point too.
Keep up the great work!
Matt,
I really had fun and enjoyed reading your excellent piece. By-the-way, one of the Magickal nome de plume’s I used to go under, on Radio and in Ritual, was Satyr Oz. Ocassionally he comes out of retirement. The energy of Oz was definitely heightened while reading.

The next episode will come out around the Autumnal equinox so keep that in mind for sending something along. Please do send something from yourself, and your friend as well. I would also love to hear and include any musick you make.
I haven’t decided on an exact air date or deadline for submissions yet so stay in touch and stay tuned.
Justin
