The Meaning Behind My New Song "Open Your Eyes"

[@flowpoi5864]

I love your music man. We met in Ashville not that long ago and I was able to finally tell you in person. I have had so many beautiful moments in my life to the soundtrack of your imagination over the last 10 years and I just wanna say that I am glad that you and your prior partner were able to remain friends. Things change, but that's ok ❤

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

Thank you for reminding me of our conversation. 🙏🏼 Hearing how my music plays a part in people’s lives is one of my favorite parts of being a musician. And so true… change is inevitable. ❤️

I see beauty everywhere and in everything. I see it in nature and in the 2 feet of snow that just buried our cars here in Colorado. I see beauty in you brother.

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

Ooooof, Thanks brother. Beauty is al around! I miss you man. Will be seeing you here soon. So much snow back home!!!

[@sarahhongerloot9322]

I certainly recall the volatile Colorado weather when I used to reside there. I MISS Colorado… it has a unique energy, incredible beauty and vibe … enjoy the snow!! ❄️ most of all I miss hiking it’s rough terrain…

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

@@sarahhongerloot9322 It's my first time not living somewhere on the west coast in my entire life and I LOVE it. Also my first time living Ian a place that has 4 distinct seasons. I don't mind the snow at all, myself. And yes, the abundance of nature is absolutely incredible here. SO MUCH EPIC NATURE ALL AROUND!

[@sarahhongerloot9322]

Your transparency is refreshing and I highly admire your courage to put yourself out there…😊 I’m sorry for your recent loss… and I can relate, actually. love is eternal even when the “form” of it shifts… I’m here for you… merci… your French is good… lol I appreciate the effort… 😘

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

Thanks Sarah. It felt really good to share some of my internal landscape publicly. The sharing of it becomes part of the transmutation process. It’s also amazing to hear that it inspires others… becomes like a positive feedback loop. ♾️ ❤️ Thank you for your support. Hahaha Le français est une si belle langue. Si seulement je pouvais encore le parler couramment. 🙃

The meaning behind your song is a song in itself. If everyone were to see the beauty in this world, as you put into words and in your music, this world would be a much better place. Your description is so simple but yet so profound. Your video behind the song is life changing for many who listen to it! ♥️🎶👨🏻👩🏻

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

Wow. Thanks for such a great response. Your kindness means a lot to me. ❤️ I miss you guys and will be seeing you soon!!!

[@MattRid]

This is really exiting stuff! I Always enjoy and love your sound. Looking forward to hearing the new single man! 😃

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

Thanks Matt! I hope you like it. 🙂 kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3zXqmmti86mnM0

If more people looked at the world through a camera lens (not a phone camera) I think more people would marvel at the beauty surrounding us every moment we are alive. It saved me from the dispair and I proselytize the healing power of photography to anyone who will listen. The creative process is so inherently therapeutic and is why I believe "the arts" are so important. It's hard to imagine a world without music, art, or photography.

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

Man I couldn’t agree more. And I love how much of a positive impact photography has had with you. There are so many things I noticed, and appreciate now that I’ve been studying photography and cinematography. You’re literally and figuratively seeing the world through a new lens and it’s so pleasurable.

[@sarahhongerloot9322]

Thank you for your brilliant expression! I hike the local woods frequently… it is healing and regrounding; a meditative and invigorating art 🖼️

[@Chris696418]

so grateful for your music and your authenticity! Saw you live at CoSM Winter Solstice and it was really special. Thanks for making it happen

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

Thank you, Chris! 🙏🏼

[@seanbrady8302]

Hey Rain. As a fan, we collectively see you as someone on a different level bc if your talent and success. And you did something in this video that I feel makes you so relatable and bridges the gap from you to us viewers/fans. You showed us your vulnerable side with touching on your break up and feelings that came with it. Thank you for that. To go on camera and show us that takes courage. ❤

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

Thanks Sean. It means a lot to hear this. It actually felt really good to share some of my experience publicly like this. Vulnerability is such an attractive trait to me. And I’m learning to lean into it more myself. It feels amazing, knowing that it can inspire others and become a positive feedback loop. ♾️ 🙏🏼

[@sarahhongerloot9322]

Very well said 👍!!

[@joanqpublic592]

Beauty is everywhere, in this giant miracle we call life.

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

YES!!! 🙌🏼

[@chickenmonger123]

I’ve heard it said there are three unifying concepts that undergird all meaning. Truth, beauty, and good. Funny how if you’ve ever experienced awe, it is one or more of those things. This stuff isn’t a joke, or a primitive(haha) flight of fancy. The truth shows you the scope of existence and your place in it. Beauty shows you the forms and alignment with those things. Good is what relevance a life finds in that, and it’s relation to all life. Good, beauty, or truth unobserved, is not really any of those things. See how that meaning is instilled in the union of our soul. Our breath. The immaterial network that constitutes us? That is what those old teachings mean when the speak of spirit. And it is not imaginary. The conceptual and coherent identity found in the self directed building of circuit and synapse is as real as any data stored anywhere. Be it words or images scribed in stone and wood. Or transmitted constructs on silicon. That stuff isn’t imaginary or unscientific. It’s not woo woo. It is only everything that matters, and pre exists all other notions regarding any aspect of existence. “I am that I am.” he said. So to are we. Choose wisely

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

Beautiful share… Thank you. Truth and beauty are things. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about. It’s ironic to me that things spoken in the name of truth can so often be divisive, as it is so frequently a very subjective thing. Truth is often something people cling to, and are willing to kill or die.for. At the same time, it can also give us confidence or act as a rudder on our journey through life. Something I appreciate about beauty is how often it can lead to connection and enjoy when it is shared.

[@sarahhongerloot9322]

Excellent commentary!! Your words are crafted magnificently!

[@kyleeaton2717]

I'm desperate to hear an album with your music and Sadistik's lyrics. It would be absolutely mind blowing.

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

Thanks for that. I’ve never heard of him, but I’ll check them out.

[@kyleeaton2717]

@PhutureprimitiveMusic Thank you. I let Sadistik himself know of you to.

[@Aretworow]

Yes sir. Amen. Relate to every word you speak.

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

Right on. Thank you. 🙏🏼

I LOVE this quote!

[@israelbahena4482]

I love your music. Are we gonna get a full album soon like sub-conscious and kinetik. I saw you back in Chicago in 2014

[@PhutureprimitiveMusic]

Thank you. 🙏🏼 I plan on doing mostly singles this year, but far more frequently than before.
