As you all know, my roots (as a listener and practitioner) are in classical music.
In this cute punk rock track we played at our 21.03 gig at Lepakkomies, Helsinki, I pay homage to the immortal Edvard Grieg during the intro (this is featured in the EP recording as well): In The Hall of the Mountain King! Wearing the Ghost mask too 🙂
My new song “You” is a poignant and intense reflection on the role of Ambition in human actions and history. Inspired by #Stendhal and #Dostoevsky. Hailing from my Odalisque years, the song was unreleased, so I did a robust rework.
This one is now distributed and you can find it on Spotify etc.
Here is the Soundcloud link, go and check it!

I have made a video of me playing the guitar solo of my latest song “You”, out now! Featuring various techniques (e.g. sweep picking and tapping), diminished and harmonic minor scales.
The reworked version of my 2022 song “The Tyger”, my homage to William Blake, is now featured in a Gothic Metal Spotify playlist:
Thank you so much, UNDERGROUND N’ PROUD!

A horror story of might, God and grandeur. Whispered in the darkness.
My homage to the visionary poet William Blake (1757-1827).
A remix of my #progressivemetal / prog rock song Funky Matters (a concept on the history of particle #physics) is now available on #soundcloud at https://soundcloud.com/quantumprana/funky-matters .
Defined as “Perfect intersection of Frank Zappa and Primus.” in a recent review. Check it out!
…and now also Quantum Arkanum is available on #Spotify, #Deezer and all the other digital distribution media 😄. This is my Yin side, dark and symbolic, dealing with Greek and Egyptian cosmogony and ancient myths such as the cult of Amun-Ra. The beginning of a long and comprehensive project. Check it out!
Some update about my upcoming Quantum Arkanum EP: the vocals for track #2 are now recorded. The song is heavy on symbolism and gnostic traditions, consistently with the EP’s title.
If Event Horizon https://g.co/kgs/4AB8BA is my Yang, progressive and rather bright sounding, Quantum Arkanum is my Yin, featuring dark atmospheres based on doom metal arrangements. Still quite progressive anyway, but with a different flavour.
Tracks #1 and #3 are going to be instrumental, while #2 features vocal parts and lyrics on Egyptian cosmogony and occultism. A mix of English and Ancient Greek.
Forecast for the release date: end of June/mid July. Stay tuned!
