A Trillion Neurons

Story

“Flawed Soteriology” already has a gnurled origin story. So it’s funny to me that it not only got another lease on life but that it also turned into the lead single.

The backing vocals were made in Little AlterBoy off his rap. I controlled some of the pitch “live” to give it a touch of humanity.

For the songs made for this album, this is the one where I touched the vocals underneath the least. That sounds silly once I’ve told you the backing vocals note, I realize. But he was so in flow that I barely touched up any of the rhythms. Volume, sibilance, and the like are done up to usual standards, but that’s about it.

Lyrics (by Declaime; they’re chiastic!)

Yeah, huh, yeah, huh

It’s the power of the brain
Something that you can’t explain

Neuron network number one
Called up neuron network number two
Said, “we have this bright idea, so we are emailing you
And it came to us last night as clear a photo”

Diverted my attention from super lotto
A message in the email that you’ve never heard before
But it is very important, and one you can’t ignore

In every human chromosome of every human kind
There is a genetic specimen that you must look and find
That genetic is in the slow-witted and the brightest of the bright
Stored knowledge of all humanity, of what is wrong or right

An electrochemical process is now underway
A trillion neurons buzzing like crazy all throughout the day
All throughout the day like crazy, yeah

A trillion neurons buzzing like crazy is now underway
An electrochemical process of what is right or right
Stored knowledge of all humanity and the brightest of the bright
That genetic is shown in the slow and the witted

There is a genetic specimen that you must look and find
In every human chromosome of every human kind
A message in the email that you never heard before
But it is very important, and one you can’t ignore

It came to us last night as clear as a photo
Diverted my attention from super lotto
Said, “we have this bright idea, so we are emailing you”
Neuron network number one called up neuron network number two

It’s the power of the brain that you can’t explain
You can’t explain – you can’t explain

“Hello – I am emailing you to download this
To all frequencies that exist
One light, one love, one God
And so it be
And so it is said”

The power of the brain
It’s the power of your brain

Some press about it

Pending! (I hope.)
