    We were just in love with this music so much that I needed it to be even more real, so we made a CD :) Of this run, there are going to be about 150 of these available to the general public. The rest are going to every willing non-commercial radio station in the country, because I'm old school like that.

    For the CD we did all the good stuff - it comes in a jewel case, with a 4 page booklet. Inside the booklet features the hands, eyes, and heart of Mell Picco who did the records design work. This CD is everything you'd expect from an electronic music release of the early 90's ;)

about

Thesia spent most of its existence near Pyrrhic. Thesia was the sister planet to the originally named, Muladhara. For thousands of cycles, Muladhara and Thesia, and their associated races, the Artos and Rhy Mi', lived as family supporting each other in daily lives, as well as any two planets can do. Through their mutual exchange, creatives of the 2nd and 4th consciousnesses, collaborated and thrived.

Eventually, as the color of Muladhara began to fade, during the darks infestation, the Rhy Mi' noticed. They reached out, many times, increasingly desperate. Repeatedly the Artos assured them no change was happening to their beloved Muladhara, as they did not notice the shifting colors beneath their feat. Something about their connection ritual had blinded them, causing them all to see the same color and see that color as correct.

As the Artos descended and devolved, trust between the two creatives dissolved. Regularly the Artos would deceive and eventually grew hostile. The Rhy Mi', a particularly evolved creative race, was particularly old and no longer prepared to defend themselves in the physio and audium planes of existence. Within the pulse things had been perfect for so long, what need would they have for defense? Alas, the Artos were sick and unreachable, the Rhy Mi' needed to do something, should they all fade into the dark streams of the 7th great consciousness.

When all seemed lost, well before the burden, the vt100 came across the Rhy Mi' observing their plight. Luckily, vt100's sequence had just begun and their space folders were at maximum capacity. In dire situations, a sequence may be aborted in order to resolve a witnessed timornucleus. In this case, vt100 was sure a pulse break had happened and felt but gratitude they could save a planet that still understood love.

With the timornuclues well in progress, the vt100 decided to move Thesia to the protected Van nebula. In an instant, Thesia and the Rhy Mi' were safe to pulse and play leaving the Artos to burn out as it seemed they so longed for. For a peta cycle, the Artos devolved and fought, until they were archived by the vt100 inside the 5th consciousness itself.

To this day Thesia remains in the van nebula, protected by the vt100. And, though the vt100 rarely stops in, they often reflect upon Thesia and the Rhy Mi', particularly when they're about to speak with a burden.
