‘The Journey’ - The Octopus Division

  ‘The Journey’ - The Octopus Division In ‘The Journey,’ a sonic mosaic unfolds that—permeated by neon-soaked synth pads and a melody that feels like memory—is less a song than a spiritual compass. The time that relentlessly pursues us, according to ‘Time keeps chasing us every day’, is not portrayed as an enemy, but as a constant touchstone that we face with our heads held high: ‘ We won't let the rain wash us away’ . Photography, here metaphorically as a key to the past, opens doors to moments that seem long gone but live on within us. The chorus – a kind of collective mantra – describes not just a journey, but an intertwining of stories that support each other. The garden in which hopes take root becomes a symbol of what must be nurtured in order to flourish. And when ‘ our songs have lost a note or two ’, it is not a flaw, but proof of lived depth.

"Generation Chaos" by River Huxley

River Huxley


For NYC-based songwriter and film director River Huxley, the adaptation of this moniker has become the next phase in his career to express his philosophy and ruminations on current events and culture. 
He does this through anxiety-inducing electropunk songs that verge in between the aggression and intensity of industrial and punk rock combined with the sensitivity and emotional insight of synth-based pop songs of the new wave era. 
Pondering the preoccupations of the human condition and other themes through his lyrics, River Huxley aims to engage his audience through introspection rather than exploitation.

Generation Chaos

River Huxley meldet sich zurück und beschert uns eine großartige Zeitreise in die 80er, mit im Gepäck hat er ein wenig Industrial und Glitch. In dieser musikalischen Dekade trifft seine Kreativität dann auf Dark, Cold und Synth Wave Elemente, dank seiner Affinität zu diesen Genres und seiner Begabung gelingt ihm eine exzellente Symbiose in Form seines neuen Tracks, welcher sich "Generation Chaos" nennt und seit einigen Tagen auf dem Markt ist. 
Metaphorisch beschreibt er seinen Song bzw. seine Musik als "Dystopian Synthpop", mit dem Ziel, eine introspektive Hymne für jüngere Generationen zu liefern, die in Zeiten des Aufruhrs aufwachsen. Älteren Generationen rät er zur Entspannung. Gemeinsam soll das Chaos angenommen und im Zuge des Tanzens überwunden werden. Seine Inspiration gefällt mir, sein Song ebenfalls und in diesem Sinne, Generation Chaos by River Huxley or come together to dance the chaos away!
