Out West ( UnVerified) Thomas Schoenberger Composer

[@Alexandre-h9l8c]

What you do as a composer and musician is pretty astounding. Marcia did a great edit job on the video. May 2025 bring more amazing works of art from the brilliant Sophia Musik team!

[@SophiaMusik]

Thank you Alexandre.Merry Christmas.

[@Agatha-k3r]

I recognize Turkish soldiers from 1916 in some of the footage.The Senator is a quick change artist.He can't seem to shake his costumes.This is a very clever work of art & the music is mind blowing!

[@SophiaMusik]

Good eye Agatha.Yes, it is a nod towards events happening as we speak in the Middle East and other parts of Asia. As the world spins, only we perceive it's out of control.I think the actual planet barely notices us ;)

[@sinaminika]

Merry Christmas everyone! Stay safe. 🎄✨ Thank you again for the adventure. ☕

[@SophiaMusik]

Merry Christmas to you as well Sinaminika. My family traditions are to celebrate on Christmas Eve. ( Danish) I wish you a wonderful holiday !

[@sinaminika]

Thank you. Unfortunately we haven't celebrated anything for a very long time. When I was little I lived mostly with my grandparents and I always knew the holiday was near cause my grandmother would show off her marzipan pigs. 🐖

[@SophiaMusik]

@@sinaminika You are Danish? Yes, the tradition we followed was to put a single almond in a large bowl of porridge. The one who got the cup of porrige with the almond in it was gifted with a Marzipan pig. I am guessing you are Danish.

[@anacouper]

[@orion3874]

Merry Christmas, Thomas! 🎄🎄🎄Now correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like the final number was the prototype for one of the Cicada songs. Is that right?

[@SophiaMusik]

Yup you have a good ear.

[@Henry-j3y]

Buon Natale a te Tomaso. Che tu possa regalarci altre canzoni per il nuovo anno. Presto, la festa dell'Epifania!

[@SophiaMusik]

@@Henry-j3y grazie.

[@dd-xc1li]

That first one, you play so fast, and no mistakes. I like the old west AI. It works

[@SophiaMusik]

Thanks. Yes, AI for visuals can be interesting, but not for a whole movie...and I will never use AI in music...ever

[@James-w2n2t]

Did you also compose netherworld? And you came out with a CD called Heaven? Plus, I found an old KZbin channels with two videos, one called heaven and one called hell. Fits perfectly into a William Blake themes puzzle.Yet, you know nothing lulz.

[@SophiaMusik]

Yes, that was an additional clue... Like the instar, tunneling to the surface We must shed our own circumferences; Find the divinity within and emerge...This was a simple reference to shedding the exoskeleton, but more importantly, emerging from the underworld changed. I guess only a few solvers understood the reference was to Dante's pilgrimage into hell, .i.e The Inferno. The solver Ghosted realized this and then was able to go to the next step.Remember, it's just a puzzle and not a person. Virgil is the guide. There is your hint.

[@Arjun-j3t9q]

I know the puzzle from pursuing various Reddit links, and so forth.What happens next? You said Remember the Future. Merry Christmas. Can you offer this pilgrim a Christmas Day hint?

[@SophiaMusik]

Maybe St Germain lost a song ...

[@hectorl.walters1672]

Hmm.You had 3 songs in one song with Instar.But there is a part of this that seems like a 4th song. I can't put my finger on it. A rock song from the 60s/70s?

[@SophiaMusik]

68. Monkey man..written by tge Rolling Stones for www.finestresullarte.info/en/ab-art-base/mario-schifano-life-and-works-of-the-cougar-painter

[@SophiaMusik]

Mario was one of the first cipherpunks..and was a musician artist visionary

[@James-w2n2t]

So you were recording in a home studio setup.How were you recording the piano tracks? As far as the guitar, what was your set up? Sounds like you were in a pace with wood floors/natural reverb.

[@SophiaMusik]

@James-w2n2t Two Shure mics and my ovation guitar .It was not exactly a professional setup, lol. On the technics keyboard,I used floppy disks directly inserted into the keyboard. I have a much better set up these days The idea came from a song I grew up with called "Who's Crying Now " by Journey Get it?Journey =pilgrimage

[@SophiaMusik]

Simple masking. We did this one in the same session.kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGHdgpehj7CAr5Y

[@James-w2n2t]

@@SophiaMusik Thanks

[@SophiaMusik]

@@James-w2n2t My pleasure. My memory is not what to use to be lol

[@addison6548]

Ok, so now that you are answering questions, did you have a hand in creating the Pi Mobi 2016 puzzle?

[@SophiaMusik]

Does it matter? Its better to concentrate on the sitter, not the hand.

[@LangIeyLarper]

🐎👽 🤠

[@SophiaMusik]

In the old west, it was never about love, but about fear...fearful retributions, fastest draw in the west, fear of damnation was not so big a fear...fear of Indian raids, plagues and illness were...Love, well that was a temporary saloon thing ..or so say the spaghetti westerns...;) The most perfect example, we loved seeing Clint Eastwood take down bad guys but felt queasy if he had a love interest...

[@musicianJames]

You are Cicada 3301. Deny it all you want. The last song is a protos ample of Instar emergence. This is played on a Technics SX model. PR602? .On the original, who played drums? That's what I want to know. You played with the rhythm as well. What is the purpose of all this? You had a 20 beat divergence from 145-125 in the guitar version. Fits exactly what you do with your music Please please please , answer my questions and do not delete this.

[@SophiaMusik]

1. 3301 is a series of puzzles, not one person. 2. Yes, its an old technics 602, but its long gone, abandoned in a storage unit in Venice beach lol....Who played drums? It was one drum, a guy named Barry..he is actually more of a flutist..I just took my 4 track stuff to his studio, but all this stuff was recorded in 2005. Barry owns a studio...so I would record stuff at home and take it to Barrys studio for post edits..sometimes we had Marnie come in to sing....Here is a song from one of those sessions...kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYOZZpJ7qa-jjbc 3. I always change up rhythm...it's one of my signatures. To be succinct, As far as 3301, it was never a person, so calling me cicada 3301 is incorrect. Even the name is wrong.There was a cicada image used, but the puzzle has always been 3301, not Cicada 3301. Cheers James.
