“Number one, competition is none!”
(https://go.meaningwave.com/EscapeCompetition)
The opening anthem from How To Get Rich Vol. 3 (https://go.meaningwave.com/HowToGetRich3) gets a single release! This was the first track I recorded for the album, a joyful, sun-drenched superbop replete with strings and synths and scratches and some squiggly sfx, with Nivi, me, and a chopped-up Rakim on the chorus. The video drops next week and it’s got Patrick McGoohan in it…
The instrumental is on the B side, and speaking of which, the full instrumentals album, PRESENT 3: THE NAVAL INSTRUMENTALS drops next week. After which we venture into BRAND NEW SINGLE TERRITORY. THASSRIGHT! The weekly Meaningnukes keep on coming ALL YEAR LONG BABY!
LOVE! TO! YOU! AND! YOUR! FAMILY!

“THE SLEEPER HAS AWAKENED…”
At last! It is time!
DUNEWAVE: ODYSSEY!

Crystalizing the wisdom of Frank Herbert’s Duniverse into a single-hour-long, sixteen-track epic musical explosion…
Four years in the making!
Recorded on multiple continents!
With vocals from beloved personality and Dune authority Danika XIX, and vocals and production from I, Akira The Don.
DUNEWAVE: ODYSSEY is both a diamond-hard distillation of the wisdom of the ages, a timeless and futuristic cosmic space trap rock opera, and a summing up of the first 5 years of Meaningwave, as concise as it is anthemic.

CREATE PATTERNED BEHAVIOR.
ALL PATTERNED BEHAVIOR
TENDS TO GO UNQUESTIONED,
GATHERING DESTRUCTIVE MOMENTUM.”
