Through Entheogen (Storm), Buttlesmoker Emphasizes Music Direction In New Albums

Bottlesmoker (Doc. Bottlesmoker)

JAKARTA - After releasing Tortuga II in October last year, Buttlesmoker launched its second single titled Entheogen (Storm) via Narumi Records, a label managed by Buttlesmoker itself.

Recorded at Parakut's East Recording Studio, the song, which involved Dissa Kamajaya (Nudin Amizah, Polyester Embassy) as producer and Kiivv as co-producer, strengthens the signal of how music in the sixth album of Buttlesmoker, Puraka, will be heard.

Entheogen (Storm) is a very important song on Puraka's album later. He is the main life, both in terms of music and message, said Bottlesmoker personnel, Angkuy in a statement received by VOI desk.

Entheogen itself is taken from the name of psychoactive substances that only exist in entertainment plants such as peyote cacti, psilocybe mushrooms, brugmansia flowers, aahuasca leaves and others that induce changes in perception, mood, awareness, cognition, or behavior for the purpose of producing spiritual development in a sacred context.

An anthropological study has determined that entheogeneity is used for religious, magical, controversal, or spiritual purposes in many parts of the world. Entheogen (Storm) was written in 2019 after Angkuy watched The Nepalese Honey That Makes People Hallucine on Vice.

Musically, this song still has the feel of the fourth album, Parakosmos. There is a typical global beat game pattern for Eastern Indonesia's percussion with the events of rituals which are one of the ideas of exploration. This song is the shortest song, but the writing process is the longest, especially in the research department. Songs that have become triggers for many things in the writing of the next song," concluded Nobie.
