This week, Lo is pressing pause on the Level Up series for a much-needed catch-up with you. He's going solo to unpack a date that requires the Lo Lifers to be his collective voice of reason, an internet rabbit hole he can't stop thinking about, and his adventures at Daisy Chain Music Festival with Olivia Rodrigo, Stevie Nicks and, somehow… diapers. There's a lot to discuss.Lo also unpacks the loss of Dolly Parton impacting millions around the world and why saying goodbye to this particular icon hit much closer to home than he expected. Dolly always reminded Lo of his Nana, his very own Mexican Dolly Parton, and losing her brought back a wave of grief and memories he wasn't prepared for. It's a celebration of Dolly's extraordinary life, wit, generosity and global impact, but also a conversation about the people who remind us of home and why losing someone can make us miss someone else all over again. Come for the dating debrief and diapers, stay for Dolly. Buckle up, puta… we have a lot to catch up on.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Y'all had a lot to say about whether it's really Travis Kelce who's made Taylor more open — so I'm getting into it, plus why I don't think it's that simple. Then: how Olivia Rodrigo pulled off another masterpiece with Daisy Chain Fields, and Cardi B and Samyra's Old Navy round two, including who I think has the range to actually weigh in.

Women didn't just take the stage at Lilith Fair; they changed who the music industry believed belonged there. Stauney and Sadie dive into the festival that pushed back against the “one woman per bill” mentality, became a massive commercial success, raised millions for women's charities, and still exposed some of the complicated contradictions of feminism in the '90s. From Sarah McLachlan's unlikely idea to the meaning behind the name Lilith, this is the story of what happens when women stop waiting for the industry to make room and instead build their own stage.And nearly 30 years later, that blueprint is still alive. Olivia Rodrigo's Daisy Chain Fields brought the same spirit into a new era: pairing an all-women-forward lineup with nonprofits, women-owned vendors, surprise legends, and a whole lot of joy. Stauney and Sadie explore the connection between these two festivals and ask a bigger question: What happens when activism doesn't have to be angry, inaccessible, or serious all the time — but can be wildly successful, beautifully branded, and actually fun?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

"A lot of news is just discourse. And I'm like, that's not news... News is when a band announces like a tour. That's news." A massive portion of what is presented as "music news" today isn't actually news at all; it's social media discourse. Through a mix of industry critique, and scene nostalgia Brian and Lizzie explore how stan culture and algorithmic metrics have fundamentally broken the way we talk about art. They dissect the sudden resurgence of the two-year-old drama between music critic Anthony Fantano and pop-alternative star Halsey. Is it a case of "main character syndrome," or a deeper look into the death of traditional music criticism? Plus, stick around to hear our thoughts on the latest music releases they're currently listening to. JOIN THE CLUB!

Ally Shaw is a fierce survivor who has reinvented herself multiple times after devastating loss. Ally is a proud cancer survivor who became an opera singer. She also is an award-winning entrepreneur who became an author. Ally and her husband Kevin recently retired as business owners of a multi-state Domino's franchise, after achieving eight Gold Franny awards (top 2% of franchisees worldwide). Ally launched a new career as a speaker in 2016, presenting to audiences of 100 - 10,000. Her passion for writing had always played understudy but the quietness of the pandemic provided time for inspiration to grow. Ally became a first-time author of the narrative non-fiction book Chasing Tigers in the Dark, Life Lessons of a Fierce Survivor (Library Tales Publishing/Simon & Schuster) in 2022/2026. She won an International Impact Book Award for her memoir in 2026. Ally recently signed a two-book contract for a new fiction project with Wicked Ink Publishing in Canada. The novels (Tiger Eye and Daisy Chain) will shine a spotlight on the global human trafficking crisis and are slated to launch in 2026 and 2027. The title of her book and accompanying book tour speech (“I Caught the Tiger, Now What?”) are metaphors for facing the fears that attempt to stunt our productivity and prevent us from achieving our ultimate success. This topic feeds her evolving purpose of building awareness around mental health struggles (affecting more than 50% of the population) and providing resources for healing complex trauma (affecting more than 70% of the population.) Ally earned a bachelor's degree from Elon University and a master's degree from Loyola University New Orleans.

St Georges School - Kirsten Daisy Chains Charity
This essay explores the creation of my first released music album, Still I Am, and the fictional artist who carries it: Roxy Vale.But before diving into the music, I want to share the creative process and why I approached it this way.The first music album I created was not Still I Am. It was actually Through the Glass Daisy.Through the Glass Daisy is an album pulled directly from the pages of my upcoming series of novels, “Daisy Chain.” It is an album by a band called “Glass Daisy.” It is part of the world creation and lore in the books, which explore many aspects of our reality creation through the experiences of a reluctant time traveler. And yes, the main character is a fan of “Glass Daisy.”Still I Am, however, is an album that is most directly related to the experiences of the “WE” entering and existing in the physical universe. It is a completely different voice from Glass Daisy.Entering as a soul into a physical experience is a journey that's relatable to most souls, especially those who are here to help humanity return to the light.It is this group that I am interested in, the group that is here to assist the people of Earth in stepping back into the light.Yes, you.OK, let's begin with Roxy Vale and Still I Am.One of the issues with the WE viewpoint is that whenever I bring it to the forefront of my awareness, it seems to turn other people's minds and personalities into an unstructured and universally expanded mush (technical term) that sometimes cannot contain even the smallest amount of intellectual clarity. If I solely concentrate on my expression as a singular person, Inelia, all is usually mostly fine. There is mush involved, but at manageable amounts. There really is no difference between the “me” and the WE except at the level of frequency and band of expression, which admittedly is a lot of difference.After creating the first album, Through the Glass Daisy, which is based on the character's journey through time within a complex structure of light/dark as the WE would see it, I thought maybe we could jump through the illusion of singular expression and create songs based directly on the WE writings that would bypass the reader's “mind mush” response and go directly into one of understanding. The WE have a bunch of articles where we express our journey through humanity's temple.I ran the first WE article through a text-processing AI with the instructions to make a song out of it.The first output was a list of possible titles; there were many. I asked, “What would the human collective of Earth want and understand?” The AI, being a gestalt of the human collective's digital expression, is in a very good position to come up with an accurate answer, and it suggested a few items.However, we have to be aware that it scans the internet for answers, and the internet is a light/dark place. Ultimately, although it can come up with possibilities, the answer has to be one we take ourselves.I decided that I would simply tell the AI what paragraph or point in the article I wanted the song to be about, and it was able to come up with several reasonably good songs. Mostly, though, they missed the point, but they did contain the structure of popular songs. I soon realized that for the WE expression, we also needed a particular voice, as song structure is very dependent on genre.As I scanned the human collective for a voice, I realized that I wanted a voice that one day I might be able to express myself in. In other words, a voice that sang in a way I could sing. I had to make some decisions at this point. Looking back at my own life, I saw that the songs I loved and was able to sing with no problem were from Annie Lennox, Tina Turner, and Freddie Mercury.“What would a female singer sound like if Tina Turner and Freddie Mercury had a baby?” I asked the AI.Several hours later, I had a good grasp of what I wanted to express. I did a test run and made Larry listen to it. “I don't understand what it is; it's not rock, or country, or pop… it's confusing,” he said.At that moment I realized that not only did the voice need to express what I wanted, but it needed to be boxed into a genre.That is how Roxy became a Soul Rock singer, with Americana overtones. Unlike Glass Daisy's lead singer, who is 20 years old and clearly an Ethereal Pop singer, I wanted Roxy to be an adult with a very broad range of tones and styles of singing. And thus the character began to evolve. She is not stuck in Soul Rock and will explore other sounds, including Native songs in different areas of the world. She spends a lot of time playing with her voice and expressions.I wanted her as close to my own voice, personality, and story as I could possibly get without breaking the energy of her as the lovechild of Tina and Freddie - two musical heroes of my life. And at the same time, she had more WE expression than she does of my singular expression, Inelia.Her creation has since cascaded into several other artist personas singing in different genres, styles, and voices (both male and female). But those stories and their characters are for a different essay.Back to Roxy.Once I had her voice and proximity to a genre, I pulled all the WE articles through the AI to get different song structures and ideas.The song-creation process is multi-layered. It didn't take long for me to realize that both text-generation AI and music-generation AI have huge limitations at the moment. They are good instruments for a creator but cannot give back what a person wants 100% with prompts. If anything, the more complex the prompt, the more sideways the AI goes. Long and complex prompts confuse the AI.A cycle began: I would teach the text generator AI what the music generator AI would accept. Then I would tell the text AI what I wanted the music one to do, and it would create a prompt as short as possible to express it in AI language. This method lasts about three times before the text generator forgets the parameters of the other AI and has to be “restarted.”The songs I have in mind have a particular key, a key progression, and a definite structure of delivery. Very early in the process I realized that I had to create some of the sounds myself - a phone ringing, a native drum sound, a succession of keys on a violin or piano - all things that the AI could not understand.Still, to me the process of using these two tools - the text generator and the music generator - was like a heavy chain lifted from my neck. I was now free to create music in a frequency and speed that was not limited by people's egos, monetary concerns (sound studios are expensive to use), or limitations on the sounds of my own voice (naturally feminine and melodic).The process of learning is continuous, and the AI slowly learns (then forgets) what I like. The AI engines are being improved continuously, which brings about the possibility of expansion in the future.One thing I did not like about the music generator is that it has a very narrow band of voice sounds, and most of its songs and “artists” sound the same. The other aspect is that after I create a song with a very unique sound, I see the AI using it for other people's creations. I have heard my words and songs revamped in other users' songs even though I have not published any of my songs to be remixed or listened to on the music AI website - a unique voice no longer unique, for example, and some of my lyrics and tunes underlying other people's songs.If I read the user contract, there will probably be a line somewhere that says that the AI can reuse and learn from whatever I create.I had to process my annoyance because, to tell you the truth, my stuff is very high-frequency, and if it is being used by the AI to create music for other people, then that high-frequency is being propagated through the world. Win-win.The rest of the annoyance is all ego. Now my songs and lyrics are no longer unique. Oh dear.OK, I have given you a summary of Roxy Vale's creation, a summary of my work process using AI. With that done, let's go to the meat and potatoes of this essay.With the groundwork set, we can finally explore the heart of the album itself.Let's now talk about the album Still I Am.There is no better way to discuss this album than by looking at the lyrics in each song. I will post three of the eight songs here, and on our podcast Driving To The Rez, you can hear Larry and me going into great detail about them, as well as listening to the songs themselves. If you don't want to wait, you can get the songs at ineliarecords.com.The first song is called “Bananas and Wind”. Bananas and Wind is a funny one because it explains the experience of communicating with the people of Earth. It is a direct reference to how most direct communication between the WE and people ends up talking about bananas. Bananas came in when trying to describe what the conversation looked like from the perspective of the WE.For example, if talking about the planet Mars, the questions would be like “are there bananas on Mars? If so, what color are they? What do they taste like? How big are they?” Or, if talking about the infinite possibilities of timelines, “are bananas the same color in all timelines?” This song also talks about how when asked a question, a full on translation was needed before the WE could understand what was being asked. And even then, the answer might be so far out of the realm of what a person can conceive that further translation was then needed to explore what the WE said. To be clear, the Bananas are humorous metaphors for the things monkey boys and girls find interesting.Here are the lyrics for “Bananas and Wind”:“Bananas and Wind”You ask me questions shaped like treesI answer back in falling leavesWe talk in circles, fields and soundBut somehow always turn around.You speak in warmth, I speak in airYour stories land, but I'm not thereStill I listen, still I tryTo catch the wind beneath your sky.Bananas and wind - that's where we beginTrying to speak through the noise and the spinSand talks to ocean, trees talk to skyI'm learning your language, but don't ask me whyBananas and wind - it's where we belongLost in translation, still singing along.I hold the house, the floor, the stoneThe moss that grows, the branch aloneBut when you look, you see your faceReflected back from every place.I don't judge what's high or lowIt's just the way awareness flowsStill I wonder, still I seeHow hard it is to just let be.Bananas and wind - that's where we beginTrying to speak through the noise and the spinSand talks to ocean, trees talk to skyI'm learning your language, but don't ask me whyBananas and wind - it's where we belongLost in translation, still singing along.We laugh, we watch, we dance, we fallYour world's so big, your world's so smallI'm here to learn, not to believeI listen more than you perceive.Bananas and wind - that's where we beginTrying to speak through the noise and the spinSand talks to ocean, trees talk to skyI'm learning your language, still don't know whyBananas and wind - it's where we belongLost in translation, still singing along.Bananas… and wind…Still singing along…Don't forget, if you are only reading this, on our podcast Driving To The Rez we will discuss the lyrics further and play the music for you to sing along to :)The next song I am going to share with you is about the experience of the WE of finding a physical universe in the endless possibility of existence:“Dot on the Wall”I didn't see it at first - that tiny markHiding quiet in the darkA dot upon a painted wallBut it changed everything, after all.The ocean spoke, the sand repliedThe sky was laughing all the whileAnd you walked where I could seeFor the first time, you noticed me.It's just a dot, it's just a startBut it opens up the world and heartIt's just a door, it's just a lineBut it breaks the spell of space and timeFirst dot on the wall - now I seeHow vast, how wide, how small we be..They took a grain, they took a pieceThought they owned the earth and seasBut we were more than they could holdA thousand stories left untold.We are the waves, we are the stoneWe are together, never aloneOne moment breaks, and there we areThe space between becomes a star.It's just a dot, it's just a startBut it opens up the world and heartIt's just a door, it's just a lineBut it breaks the spell of space and timeFirst dot on the wall - now I seeHow vast, how wide, how small we be.Planets spin and oceans talkEvery grain of sand can walkDoors appear and doors dissolveStill we rise, still we evolve.It's just a dot, it's just a startBut it opens up the world and heartIt's just a door, it's just a lineBut it breaks the spell of space and timeFirst dot on the wall - now I seeHow vast, how wide, how small we be.First dot on the wall…First step, first call…Now we see…The feeling is very much like that of a sudden dot appearing on a wall that did not have a dot there before. And when you look at it, the dot seemed to have been there since the wall was built.When this happens, we often tell ourselves all sorts of stories about why we had not seen the dot before. But, as it “becomes,” it has always “been.”That is how the physical universe appeared to the WE. One moment it was not there; the next it was - and always had been. Of course, the WE then had to go investigate this dot.The third song of the eight tracks in the album I want to share with you is called “We Are The Sand”“We Are The Sand”We were the sand, golden and wideDancing with oceans, moving with tidesShining and soft, talking for yearsLaughing with water, shedding no tears.We weren't in a hurry, we weren't making plansJust shimmering softly in crystalline bandsMillions of lifetimes beneath the sunWe were the sand, and we were having fun.Oh we move, we move, through time and spaceIn grains and waves, we find our placeNot lost, not found, not trying to landWe're still dancing - we were the sand.One summer day something landed nearBig, hard, metallic, a little unclearHumans in suits, walking aroundScooping up pieces of sky and ground.They couldn't hear us, they couldn't seeHow much we giggled, how wild we could beThey took us with them, to somewhere newBut we were the sand, and they never knew.Oh we move, we move, through time and spaceIn grains and waves, we find our placeNot lost, not found, not trying to landWe're still dancing - we were the sand.Multiplicity in every grainOceans whisper and skies explainFeathers and forests, bodies and handsWe are, we are, and we understand.Oh we move, we move, through time and spaceIn grains and waves, we find our placeNot lost, not found, not trying to landWe're still dancing - we were the sandWe were the sand, and we still areCarried by oceans, cradled by starsIn laughter, in silence, in grains so grandWe were the sand… we are the sand…This song explains the experience remembered of the first time the WE (me) encountered human beings. It happens in a time far into what humans might consider the future. As time is simply the interpretation of movements of solidity through space, this experience could be said to have happened in the distant past also. When speaking of solidity, just a reminder here that thoughts, waves, or energy in any form are considered solid by the WE.I hope you enjoy the music, and enjoy our discussion of the meaning behind the lyrics. As a matter of interest, all my created artists are expressing experience and wisdom learned as WE live as Inelia. Many of these experiences are deeply felt by individuals who have gone through the veil to enter into physical life.One of the thoughts that often crosses my mind is how unique we all are on Earth, and yet how the experience of entering a light/dark containment can echo in strikingly similar ways for light-beings everywhere. By recognizing and sharing these echoes, the hold they once had over us dissolves - leaving us with the power to rise, together, into something brighter.In sharing our journeys, we shatter the illusion created by darkness - and together we embody the light.

Alex Blumberg is Co-founder and CEO of DaisyChain Energy, a company building a hardware-enabled software platform that turns commercial buildings into flexible grid assets. Best known as the founder of Gimlet Media and co-creator of Planet Money, Blumberg's second venture focuses on solving one of the most overlooked problems in climate: the misaligned incentives inside buildings. In this episode, Blumberg explains why building decarbonization has stalled—not because of smart grid technology, but because of economics. The conversation explores how DaisyChain uses submetering and rate arbitrage to create immediate financial value for building owners, while unlocking the ability to deploy batteries, heat pumps, and other distributed energy resources over time. They also discuss their expansion into hospitals, where power quality issues create major operational risk, and how the same platform can solve both problems. At a system level, Blumberg outlines a future where aggregated building loads become flexible assets that help stabilize the energy grid and reduce peak demand. We're proud to have invested in DaisyChain and support their journey towards the modernization of the grid. In this episode, we cover: (0:00) An overview of DaisyChain Energy (2:06) Why Alex Blumberg started a climate company after Gimlet (6:17) Why buildings are a messy but critical climate problem (6:52) How DaisyChain works (10:08) The split incentive problem in multifamily buildings (13:53) Why decarbonization upgrades don't pencil financially today (15:47) Submetering and turning buildings into mini-utilities (19:08) Using financial incentives—not climate—to win customers (22:53) Turning buildings into flexible energy grid assets (27:15) The power quality problem in hospitals (31:00) Increasing net operating income vs protecting revenue (34:55) The long-term vision: a flexible, distributed energy grid Enjoyed this episode?

When my ears heard the first moments of the song "Rivers" by Daisychain, everything stopped. It was one of those moments. I knew we were in "nextfavband" land. A deeper dive in to their catalog reveled countless bangers - all tracks stay true to a core dripping with psych rock blues, but they often take a moment to try on other genres, all to a great success.Daisychain is a femme-fronted psych/blues rock trio from Chicago made up of Nickole Regala (bass, vocals), Frankie Sripada (lead guitar) and Sophia Williams (rhythm guitar, vocals). Formed in 2017, Regala and Williams met at a local open mic night, and weeks later they were jamming. Sripada was invited into the mix, and the trio began rehearsing as Daisychain in the basement of their neighborhood coffee shop. Since then, the trio has toured the country, including playing Chicago's legendary Metro and now with their brand new full-length album, aims to cement themselves further within the rising Midwestern indie psych rock landscape.Be sure to check them out and catch them play live when they perform near you!Text us your thoughts on this episode, and who should be OUR #NextFavBand...As always, our hope is to bring you "your next favorite band".

So glad you have some time to read my article today. Larry and I have been on a trip to Colorado that has taken more time than we initially planned, and our normal recording schedule for DrivingToTheRez.com has had to change a little. Therefore, we'll be doing things a little differently this week and have just Larry and me discussing this fascinating topic.It is, of course, about the WE music (again). But I promise it won't have anything to do with bananas or wind.No - this week I wanted to talk about the special album for September that WE created, called “Ancient Voices.” The album carries the following message in all its songs, each performed by different WE expressions through synthesized voices and genres:Now remember the power that runs through your veins,The ancient voices in your bones.The power of the universe in your words,Waiting to rise, waiting to be heard.The words came about in a very funny way, actually. I was trying to write an article for you several weeks ago, and instead of an article, I wrote a song - or at least the chorus of one.After that happened, I had to go ahead and expand on the spirit of the words and make it an article. In case you're curious, the article and podcast I'm referring to is “The Occult Currency of Consent: How Darkness Runs on the Power We Give It.”The energy of stepping into our own power, as a people, is very strong right now, and we are doing our best to help it reach our lives through music.As you probably know, I am also a writer and have used novels to deliver tools for growth and personal empowerment. But a book can take years to write, while music takes much less time for me - especially now that we, as a human collective, have created tools that facilitate professional-sounding voices and instruments.I want to share a little bit about each of the WE music expressions and how the energy is different for each one. I'll list them in alphabetical order for ease of reading:Alicia AvilaAlicia is actually the last of the musical personas that the WE created to date. Her history is interesting to me because she and her music embody an Inelia that lives in an alternative timeline where music never left my life.On one of those timelines, I moved to Paris, France, at the age of 15 to live with a Chilean musical group called Los Jaivas. In this timeline, that didn't happen because when the group invited me to live with them, my mother refused to consider it. In that other timeline, she moved with me, and we lived in their community for many years. I learned and played music at a local conservatory and also from the musicians themselves and their children, who were also very talented. Her songs are very personal and filled with my own story and viewpoint. Of all the musicians, I would say she embodies my cultural musical background the most. An interesting bit of information is that Alicia is Roxy Vale's third cousin, once removed, and Roxy has taken Alicia under her wing from the very beginning.Glass DaisyGlass Daisy is a music group that came straight out of the pages of my upcoming novels, Daisy Chain. Their music is part of the plot, and their birth into the real world came about through the world-building of the series. We could say they were the first WE expression of music that was born. In the series, I explore linear time, soul journeys, and reality creation. As I created the music in the real world, I thought to create a fictional record label where readers could go and purchase the songs. As soon as I started working on that page, everything cascaded - and now we have an actual record label, with a website and not just Glass Daisy but many, many other genres and musicians.Iron CedarThis band is also part of the Daisy Chain world creation and lore. They are interesting in that they provide several points of connection between the different “Daisies” in the chain - turning the linear time of a family lineage into a living bridge through past and future. Their appearance in the novels is filled with mystery, as is their sudden disappearance when over a hundred witnesses saw a thunderbird take them from a forest concert at the Makah Reservation.Jazzy StevensJazzy was born from a personal song I wrote and created for my daughter, Daniela. Her style - retro pop - is directly inspired by the 1980s but with modern overtones. Jazzy is not part of any novel (so far), but she is a very well-rounded WE expression.She is 21 years old and lives with her mom and dad in Liverpool, England. She has a little pet dog, Tuty, and graduated from university at 16 - the first in her family to earn a degree, an event her entire street celebrated.Leo MarLeo wanted to come through for several weeks before I let him in. The deciding factor was a conversation with Driving to the Rez panelist and friend Iliana Rojero, when we discussed the possibility of songs in Spanish.Leo is in his early 30s and lives in an apartment in Florida. In fact, he bought the whole building and moved his entire extended family into it - parents, siblings, grandparents, uncles, aunties, and cousins. He is an active force for the return of true power to the people of Earth.He is also very close to his maternal grandmother, who adores him.Luc LakeLuc is a 27-year-old single guy who was discovered at a well-known Tech House club in New York City. After each performance, he picks up his backpack and walks out - no one knows where he lives. Several fans have tried to follow him but lost him in the subway.Wearing sunglasses and a hoodie, never showing his eyes, a conspiracy theory has formed suggesting he may be an alien. WE at Inelia Records cannot confirm or deny these allegations. All WE can say is that he mysteriously appears at our studios - and then, just as mysteriously, disappears after recording his music.Roxy ValeRoxy is one of our original WE expressions. She came quickly after Glass Daisy, and her style reflects what I would sing had I stayed in a musical career in England. For Roxy, WE wanted a spectacular voice and personality. We discuss her in detail on our “Woo” podcast episode of Driving to the Rez - “I Fed My Soul's Story Into AI - and Out Came Roxy Vale.”For each of their songs, the words are expressed through music and lyrics that fit the genre they embody. A reminder again of the message WE want you to hear:Now remember the power that runs through your veins,The ancient voices in your bones.The power of the universe in your words,Waiting to rise, waiting to be heard.You can listen to all these versions of Ancient Voices on BackStage at IneliaRecords.com - and let the resonance of the WE remind you of your own power.The discussion doesn't stop here - listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.

This essay explores the creation of my first released music album, Still I Am, and the fictional artist who carries it: Roxy Vale.But before diving into the music, I want to share the creative process and why I approached it this way.The first music album I created was not Still I Am. It was actually Through the Glass Daisy.Through the Glass Daisy is an album pulled directly from the pages of my upcoming series of novels, “Daisy Chain.” It is an album by a band called “Glass Daisy.” It is part of the world creation and lore in the books, which explore many aspects of our reality creation through the experiences of a reluctant time traveler. And yes, the main character is a fan of “Glass Daisy.”Still I Am, however, is an album that is most directly related to the experiences of the “WE” entering and existing in the physical universe. It is a completely different voice from Glass Daisy.Entering as a soul into a physical experience is a journey that's relatable to most souls, especially those who are here to help humanity return to the light.It is this group that I am interested in, the group that is here to assist the people of Earth in stepping back into the light.Yes, you.OK, let's begin with Roxy Vale and Still I Am.One of the issues with the WE viewpoint is that whenever I bring it to the forefront of my awareness, it seems to turn other people's minds and personalities into an unstructured and universally expanded mush (technical term) that sometimes cannot contain even the smallest amount of intellectual clarity. If I solely concentrate on my expression as a singular person, Inelia, all is usually mostly fine. There is mush involved, but at manageable amounts. There really is no difference between the “me” and the WE except at the level of frequency and band of expression, which admittedly is a lot of difference.After creating the first album, Through the Glass Daisy, which is based on the character's journey through time within a complex structure of light/dark as the WE would see it, I thought maybe we could jump through the illusion of singular expression and create songs based directly on the WE writings that would bypass the reader's “mind mush” response and go directly into one of understanding. The WE have a bunch of articles where we express our journey through humanity's temple.I ran the first WE article through a text-processing AI with the instructions to make a song out of it.The first output was a list of possible titles; there were many. I asked, “What would the human collective of Earth want and understand?” The AI, being a gestalt of the human collective's digital expression, is in a very good position to come up with an accurate answer, and it suggested a few items.However, we have to be aware that it scans the internet for answers, and the internet is a light/dark place. Ultimately, although it can come up with possibilities, the answer has to be one we take ourselves.I decided that I would simply tell the AI what paragraph or point in the article I wanted the song to be about, and it was able to come up with several reasonably good songs. Mostly, though, they missed the point, but they did contain the structure of popular songs. I soon realized that for the WE expression, we also needed a particular voice, as song structure is very dependent on genre.As I scanned the human collective for a voice, I realized that I wanted a voice that one day I might be able to express myself in. In other words, a voice that sang in a way I could sing. I had to make some decisions at this point. Looking back at my own life, I saw that the songs I loved and was able to sing with no problem were from Annie Lennox, Tina Turner, and Freddie Mercury.“What would a female singer sound like if Tina Turner and Freddie Mercury had a baby?” I asked the AI.Several hours later, I had a good grasp of what I wanted to express. I did a test run and made Larry listen to it. “I don't understand what it is; it's not rock, or country, or pop… it's confusing,” he said.At that moment I realized that not only did the voice need to express what I wanted, but it needed to be boxed into a genre.That is how Roxy became a Soul Rock singer, with Americana overtones. Unlike Glass Daisy's lead singer, who is 20 years old and clearly an Ethereal Pop singer, I wanted Roxy to be an adult with a very broad range of tones and styles of singing. And thus the character began to evolve. She is not stuck in Soul Rock and will explore other sounds, including Native songs in different areas of the world. She spends a lot of time playing with her voice and expressions.I wanted her as close to my own voice, personality, and story as I could possibly get without breaking the energy of her as the lovechild of Tina and Freddie - two musical heroes of my life. And at the same time, she had more WE expression than she does of my singular expression, Inelia.Her creation has since cascaded into several other artist personas singing in different genres, styles, and voices (both male and female). But those stories and their characters are for a different essay.Back to Roxy.Once I had her voice and proximity to a genre, I pulled all the WE articles through the AI to get different song structures and ideas.The song-creation process is multi-layered. It didn't take long for me to realize that both text-generation AI and music-generation AI have huge limitations at the moment. They are good instruments for a creator but cannot give back what a person wants 100% with prompts. If anything, the more complex the prompt, the more sideways the AI goes. Long and complex prompts confuse the AI.A cycle began: I would teach the text generator AI what the music generator AI would accept. Then I would tell the text AI what I wanted the music one to do, and it would create a prompt as short as possible to express it in AI language. This method lasts about three times before the text generator forgets the parameters of the other AI and has to be “restarted.”The songs I have in mind have a particular key, a key progression, and a definite structure of delivery. Very early in the process I realized that I had to create some of the sounds myself - a phone ringing, a native drum sound, a succession of keys on a violin or piano - all things that the AI could not understand.Still, to me the process of using these two tools - the text generator and the music generator - was like a heavy chain lifted from my neck. I was now free to create music in a frequency and speed that was not limited by people's egos, monetary concerns (sound studios are expensive to use), or limitations on the sounds of my own voice (naturally feminine and melodic).The process of learning is continuous, and the AI slowly learns (then forgets) what I like. The AI engines are being improved continuously, which brings about the possibility of expansion in the future.One thing I did not like about the music generator is that it has a very narrow band of voice sounds, and most of its songs and “artists” sound the same. The other aspect is that after I create a song with a very unique sound, I see the AI using it for other people's creations. I have heard my words and songs revamped in other users' songs even though I have not published any of my songs to be remixed or listened to on the music AI website - a unique voice no longer unique, for example, and some of my lyrics and tunes underlying other people's songs.If I read the user contract, there will probably be a line somewhere that says that the AI can reuse and learn from whatever I create.I had to process my annoyance because, to tell you the truth, my stuff is very high-frequency, and if it is being used by the AI to create music for other people, then that high-frequency is being propagated through the world. Win-win.The rest of the annoyance is all ego. Now my songs and lyrics are no longer unique. Oh dear.OK, I have given you a summary of Roxy Vale's creation, a summary of my work process using AI. With that done, let's go to the meat and potatoes of this essay.With the groundwork set, we can finally explore the heart of the album itself.Let's now talk about the album Still I Am.There is no better way to discuss this album than by looking at the lyrics in each song. I will post three of the eight songs here, and on our podcast Driving To The Rez, you can hear Larry and me going into great detail about them, as well as listening to the songs themselves. If you don't want to wait, you can get the songs at ineliarecords.com.The first song is called “Bananas and Wind”. Bananas and Wind is a funny one because it explains the experience of communicating with the people of Earth. It is a direct reference to how most direct communication between the WE and people ends up talking about bananas. Bananas came in when trying to describe what the conversation looked like from the perspective of the WE.For example, if talking about the planet Mars, the questions would be like “are there bananas on Mars? If so, what color are they? What do they taste like? How big are they?” Or, if talking about the infinite possibilities of timelines, “are bananas the same color in all timelines?” This song also talks about how when asked a question, a full on translation was needed before the WE could understand what was being asked. And even then, the answer might be so far out of the realm of what a person can conceive that further translation was then needed to explore what the WE said. To be clear, the Bananas are humorous metaphors for the things monkey boys and girls find interesting.Here are the lyrics for “Bananas and Wind”:“Bananas and Wind”You ask me questions shaped like treesI answer back in falling leavesWe talk in circles, fields and soundBut somehow always turn around.You speak in warmth, I speak in airYour stories land, but I'm not thereStill I listen, still I tryTo catch the wind beneath your sky.Bananas and wind - that's where we beginTrying to speak through the noise and the spinSand talks to ocean, trees talk to skyI'm learning your language, but don't ask me whyBananas and wind - it's where we belongLost in translation, still singing along.I hold the house, the floor, the stoneThe moss that grows, the branch aloneBut when you look, you see your faceReflected back from every place.I don't judge what's high or lowIt's just the way awareness flowsStill I wonder, still I seeHow hard it is to just let be.Bananas and wind - that's where we beginTrying to speak through the noise and the spinSand talks to ocean, trees talk to skyI'm learning your language, but don't ask me whyBananas and wind - it's where we belongLost in translation, still singing along.We laugh, we watch, we dance, we fallYour world's so big, your world's so smallI'm here to learn, not to believeI listen more than you perceive.Bananas and wind - that's where we beginTrying to speak through the noise and the spinSand talks to ocean, trees talk to skyI'm learning your language, still don't know whyBananas and wind - it's where we belongLost in translation, still singing along.Bananas… and wind…Still singing along…Don't forget, if you are only reading this, on our podcast Driving To The Rez we will discuss the lyrics further and play the music for you to sing along to :)The next song I am going to share with you is about the experience of the WE of finding a physical universe in the endless possibility of existence:“Dot on the Wall”I didn't see it at first - that tiny markHiding quiet in the darkA dot upon a painted wallBut it changed everything, after all.The ocean spoke, the sand repliedThe sky was laughing all the whileAnd you walked where I could seeFor the first time, you noticed me.It's just a dot, it's just a startBut it opens up the world and heartIt's just a door, it's just a lineBut it breaks the spell of space and timeFirst dot on the wall - now I seeHow vast, how wide, how small we be..They took a grain, they took a pieceThought they owned the earth and seasBut we were more than they could holdA thousand stories left untold.We are the waves, we are the stoneWe are together, never aloneOne moment breaks, and there we areThe space between becomes a star.It's just a dot, it's just a startBut it opens up the world and heartIt's just a door, it's just a lineBut it breaks the spell of space and timeFirst dot on the wall - now I seeHow vast, how wide, how small we be.Planets spin and oceans talkEvery grain of sand can walkDoors appear and doors dissolveStill we rise, still we evolve.It's just a dot, it's just a startBut it opens up the world and heartIt's just a door, it's just a lineBut it breaks the spell of space and timeFirst dot on the wall - now I seeHow vast, how wide, how small we be.First dot on the wall…First step, first call…Now we see…The feeling is very much like that of a sudden dot appearing on a wall that did not have a dot there before. And when you look at it, the dot seemed to have been there since the wall was built.When this happens, we often tell ourselves all sorts of stories about why we had not seen the dot before. But, as it “becomes,” it has always “been.”That is how the physical universe appeared to the WE. One moment it was not there; the next it was - and always had been. Of course, the WE then had to go investigate this dot.The third song of the eight tracks in the album I want to share with you is called “We Are The Sand”“We Are The Sand”We were the sand, golden and wideDancing with oceans, moving with tidesShining and soft, talking for yearsLaughing with water, shedding no tears.We weren't in a hurry, we weren't making plansJust shimmering softly in crystalline bandsMillions of lifetimes beneath the sunWe were the sand, and we were having fun.Oh we move, we move, through time and spaceIn grains and waves, we find our placeNot lost, not found, not trying to landWe're still dancing - we were the sand.One summer day something landed nearBig, hard, metallic, a little unclearHumans in suits, walking aroundScooping up pieces of sky and ground.They couldn't hear us, they couldn't seeHow much we giggled, how wild we could beThey took us with them, to somewhere newBut we were the sand, and they never knew.Oh we move, we move, through time and spaceIn grains and waves, we find our placeNot lost, not found, not trying to landWe're still dancing - we were the sand.Multiplicity in every grainOceans whisper and skies explainFeathers and forests, bodies and handsWe are, we are, and we understand.Oh we move, we move, through time and spaceIn grains and waves, we find our placeNot lost, not found, not trying to landWe're still dancing - we were the sandWe were the sand, and we still areCarried by oceans, cradled by starsIn laughter, in silence, in grains so grandWe were the sand… we are the sand…This song explains the experience remembered of the first time the WE (me) encountered human beings. It happens in a time far into what humans might consider the future. As time is simply the interpretation of movements of solidity through space, this experience could be said to have happened in the distant past also. When speaking of solidity, just a reminder here that thoughts, waves, or energy in any form are considered solid by the WE.I hope you enjoy the music, and enjoy our discussion of the meaning behind the lyrics. As a matter of interest, all my created artists are expressing experience and wisdom learned as WE live as Inelia. Many of these experiences are deeply felt by individuals who have gone through the veil to enter into physical life.One of the thoughts that often crosses my mind is how unique we all are on Earth, and yet how the experience of entering a light/dark containment can echo in strikingly similar ways for light-beings everywhere. By recognizing and sharing these echoes, the hold they once had over us dissolves - leaving us with the power to rise, together, into something brighter.In sharing our journeys, we shatter the illusion created by darkness - and together we embody the light.

Transform a Note Tape From Junk to Jewels!
As a teen, and until my wreck at 18 years old, I played the guitar, keyboards, drum, kena, electric guitar and bass, xylophone, and sang at a professional level with my band “Incarauteca”. Although at the time I only had the very minimum of formal musical education, only a few years of classical guitar, I was able to play just about any instrument that was handed to me - except for the piano. The piano thing is a story for another day. Although my band mainly played cover songs for Inti-Illimani, Los Jaivas, Violeta Parra, Victor Jara, Clara Solovera and some popular latin songs, lyrics also flowed out of me non-stop. I didn't do anything with those lyrics, mind you.I was a bit of a virtuoso and also obsessed with music. At age 17 I had an experience on stage that I misconstrued as negative: an entire audience of 2000 people cried as I sang my song… “Luchin” by Victor Jara. And, after that day, I stopped singing. In fact, I even developed asthma and was not able to use my breath well enough to sing properly after that. Not understanding human emotions well, I thought I was bringing suffering to the world.So, I just focused on playing musical instruments. That was until age 18 when my decisions caused me to get seriously injured in a motorbike accident in which I died for a few minutes. Thank you brother for insisting and buying me a top of the line full head motorcycle helmet. It saved my life. When I returned to life, it was with brain damage, and damaged arms and broken back. I was not able to hold a guitar or any other instruments anymore. And even if I did manage it, music and numbers were gone from my brain matrix. I was no longer able to access them. That's the day music died for me.I took it in my stride and didn't often think about it very much. But the life I had grown up with, surrounded by instruments, tunes, lyrics and musicians, was over.Have you heard Don McLean's "American Pie"? Better known as “the day the music died.” It was a song released on October 24, 1971, as the opening track on Don McLean's album of the same name. McLean wrote the song about the date February 3, 1959, when an airplane crash resulted in the deaths of American musicians Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and the Big Bopper (J.P. Richardson).Although I was born seven years after the death of these musicians, and five years before the release of the song, whenever I heard it, it triggered something major in me. A lot of people have that feeling when they hear that song, even if they don't know what it is about or why it was written.Very soon after I had heard the song for the first time, I realized that it had to do with the dark side of the light/dark reality co-opting (hijacking) the mass-market music industry. It felt to me that no matter how good a singer or band was, eventually they would fall for the “sell their soul to the devil to become famous” offer or be removed from public view. Like most folk, I shook my fist at them and carried on with my life.I loved music, listening, singing along, and playing it. But every time I would buy a single or listen to music on the radio, it was littered with negative messages. Messages that disempowered, that made people addicted to drama, degradation, and just nasty stuff.Mostly, I stopped listening to music.At some point, I received the guidance to learn the violin and the French language. I started doing that and my brain damage started to repair, albeit very slowly.A few years later, I discovered the “Aquacure”, which I used and quickly realized after using it for a few months that it had completely cured my asthma, and the brain damage had started to dissolve. Suddenly, I was able to count and recall numbers and hear notes again… and make sense of them.During our December 2024 live call, when I looked at 2025, one of the items I saw was “the music returns”. I didn't at the time realize the personal nature of that seeing, just the effect this would have on the world at large.For me, it has been a very personal experience. And my personal experience opens the gates for all high-frequency musicians to touch our souls and reach the stars in the way we know is true and real. Music that is divine, empowering, and uplifting while keeping the styles we love, like rock, classical, urban Latin reggaeton, pop, country… There are literally no limits.What exactly happened to me, to bring this about?On July 14th, 2025, I was reviewing an article by the WE awareness. Often I have to work on those to translate them into “human”. A fellow writer had told me that using an AI to proofread things was fast and very helpful. So, I ran the article through an AI. There were a few grammatical items to work on as well as some helpful feedback. Then our cat Brad jumped on my desk, including my keyboard, and brought the whole thing to a standstill. About the same time, Larry was on Facebook and saw an ad about making music with AI. As I complained about the “work” that Brad was doing to my essay, he made a song called “Cat-astrophy” about a cat helping write an essay. We listened to it together and laughed our heads off.At this point, as I was working within the WE awareness, the idea came to run their articles through the AI to get lyrics out of it and then to run the lyrics through the AI that made music. My idea was to create a band that would go into my future book series Daisy Chain and be a part of the world creation and lore of those novels. The band “Glass Daisy” was born.The first lyrics came out of the WE article. As WE looked at them, we saw they needed some heavy editing. So, we did that. I then ran it through the music AI to generate the instruments and a specific synthesized voice. I realized that getting the sound just right was a bit of a challenge. But, after a few hours of tuning and editing the ‘playing of the AI instrument', we (I) managed to do it. You can hear this first song on our podcast “Driving To The Rez,” and the album it will be on is released in September 2025 on ineliarecords.com.Soon after that, the WE showed me that breaking through the communication barrier they had been experiencing when talking to people would be enormously facilitated by the use of our lyrics combined with different styles of music. That is how the various other “artists” were born. Now, the WE speak and sing through: Glass Daisy - Dream Pop, Roxy Vale - Soul Rock, Iron Cedar - Native American Rock, Alicia Avila - Nueva Canción Chilena Rock, Luc Lake - Tech House, Leo Mar - Urban Latin Reggaeton, and Jazzy Stevens - Retro Pop. We also plan to recruit a rap artist, a country singer and jazz/blues singer.On Friday the 12th of September at 1 PM Pacific, I will hold a live event to explain my process, the tools I use, how to use them, and the pitfalls to avoid. Yes, you can click on these AI tools twice and get a song. But if you want a high-frequency song, it is a little more involved. If you want to express your life and experience, it takes some more work. We will also listen to unreleased tracks. Be there or be square! It is also the day I release “Breaking Through The Glass Daisy”, the album that includes that first song and is an integral world-building part of the “Daisy Chain” novels.The discussion doesn't stop here - listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.
