(The following has been added to the Liturgical Practice section.)
Not hymns for worship. Not exactly.
Liturgical music for entering altered spaces. For ritual, embodiment, surrender, confrontation, devotion, desire, and the strange territory where the sacred and profane stop pretending they are opposites.
The Hedonic Canticles: A Hymnal for Blasphemous Rites is an evolving collection of musical rites, each assembled around a particular journey, scene, or state of being.
Some are explicitly structured for kink and ritual. Some are mythic. Some are theatrical. Some are simply meant to accompany the moment when the ordinary world falls away and something more deliberate takes its place.
