I’m so happy to have drawn Sparky!! My first time remixing this amazing artist. What an incredible library of stems. I picked “6/4 Groove” with its captivating acoustic and electric guitar parts, melodic bass line, and excellent drum track. Inspiring!

I created the dance section in the middle by cutting and rearranging parts of these stems.

John Jones helped out by adding a couple of extra guitar tracks, an additional bass line, and some cool synth parts. He also provided valuable mix notes and mastered the track.

I’ve been studying Stephen Hawking’s work on black holes, singularities, and the nature of space and time while going through a period of self-doubt, which I think is part of being an artist. The idea of a singularity, where our understanding of space and time breaks down, became a metaphor for those moments when everything seems to collapse within us. We find the lows in ourselves, write music about them, and try to climb out of the hole we’re in. Music is the ultimate transformer.

Thanks to all of you for being part of ccMixter for 22 years!!!! So grateful for this community.

Queen of Almost
by Madam Snowflake

What’s the point
When the point
Floats absent space and time

As I’m pulled down
By the void now
Collapsing my faith in sound

Light implodes
Time unfolds
Darkness grows
Feeling so low, feeling so low
Queen of Almost

There’s a halo in the sky
And a black hole in my mind
Always searching for rhyme
And reason to climb

But I’m falling, and flailing
A story of failing
Have I gone off railings
Gone off the railings

Light implodes
Time unfolds
Darkness grows
Feeling so low, feeling so low
Queen of Almost

You think this is the end
My friend you are mistaken
You think this is the end
But the spiral starts again
So let’s begin!

You think this is the end
My friend you are mistaken
You think this is the end
But the spiral starts again
So let’s begin!

You think this is the end
My friend you are mistaken
You think this is the end
But the spiral starts
The spiral starts
The spiral starts again

Light implodes
Time unfolds
Darkness grows
Feeling so low, feeling so low
Light implodes
Time unfolds
Darkness grows
Feeling so low, feeling so low
Queen of Almost

I am the Queen of Almost
But this is not the end
I am the Queen of Almost
And I will try again
I am the Queen of Almost
And almost isn’t fair
I am the Queen of Almost
I’m almost there

(Let’s begin!)
