Listen to "Mark Devlin guests on Michael Joseph's Proud 2 Be Profane podcast" on Spreaker.
Michael Joseph is one of the most incisive and thorough researchers into occult influence on entertainment, and has just started a new, good-humoured podcast. I was very happy to be the second featured guest, as we took the opportunity for a conversation of almost two hours, getting into the whole area of hip-hop culture.
The chat kicks off examining the colossal influence that the teachings of the 5 Per Cent Nation, also known as Gods and Earths, have had on the scene since its inception. The 5 Per Cent Nation is a spin-off of the Nation of Islam, and there are mystical, metaphysical and spiritual overtones throughout. These have coloured the output of so many of hip-hop’s most prominent MCs, from Big Daddy Kane and Rakim, through Jay-Z and Nas, to Jay Electronica and Immortal Technique. We go places few researchers have ever gone, in asking why the doctrines of this group have become almost a de facto requirement towards success in the game.
Other subject areas discussed include the Afrika Bambaataa scandal, the Universal Zulu Nation, KRS One, the suspicious death of Prodigy, Biggie, Tupac and the East Coast/ West Coast beef of the mid-90s and much more. A part two of this conversation, taking things even further, is planned for very soon.
Mark Devlin is a UK-based club and radio DJ and music journalist. In more recent years he has begun speaking on radio and at events about the dark forces that have been manipulating the music industry for decades. This has led to the publication of his books, 'Musical Truth,' Vols 1 and 2, available on Amazon, or direct via markdevlinuk@gmail.com The one-stop shop for all audio output is: https://www.spreaker.com/user/markdevlin.

Listen to "MD guests on The World You Don't Know, Liffey Sound FM, 29/1/18" on Spreaker.

Subjects covered include: The suspicious (despite what police say) death of Dolores O’Riordan; Death By Hotel syndrome; Occult symbols in pop music videos from the 1980s; Lifetime Actors and their role in cultural manipulation; The subversive hijacking of Consent and Free Will; the true meaning of 'satanic.'

MUSICAL TRUTH 2 COPIES NOW AVAILABLE
OK. I’m happy to announce that Musical Truth 2 is finally on the streets!
The paperback is available via Amazon on the link below. For anyone who prefers to cut the not-overly-ethical Amazon out of the picture, meanwhile, I’m able to send out signed copies from my own personal stash to anyone who can pay by Paypal. If you wish to grab one via this method, please drop me an e-mail to markdevlinuk@gmail and we can arrange it. (This method of buying ensures the cut that would otherwise go to Amazon comes to me instead, helping me recoup some of the large personal outlay I’ve had to make to get this book out. Anyone who thinks I do any of this “for the money” is woefully ignorant of the realities of this game.)
If, after reading, anyone feels compelled to post a constructive review to the Amazon page, this would be much appreciated, as these reviews are hugely instrumental to the overall impact a book ends up having.
A hardback version and a Kindle version of the title will be forthcoming in the next week. I’ll post an update on those as soon as they’re available.
In the meantime, I also have hoodies and T-shirts emblazoned with the book’s logo available. Further information on all that here - http://musicaltruthbook.blogspot.com/2018/01/musical-truth-2-t-shirts-hoodies-now.html?spref=tw

GOOD VIBRATIONS PODCAST, VOL. 122: MARK DEVLIN - MUSICAL TRUTH VOLUME 2
Listen to "GVP#122 - Mark Devlin: Musical Truth 2" on Spreaker.
Everything’s inverted this episode, as Ivan From Phoenix returns as guest host, interviewing Mark Devlin upon the release of his new book, Volume 2 of Musical Truth.
Musical Truth Volume 2 is available in paperback now via Amazon. Hardback and Kindle versions will be available shortly. The author is also able to send out signed copies to anyone who can pay by Paypal. Please e-mail markdevlinuk@gmail.com to arrange this.
Ivan asks Mark to run through the book’s contents chapter-by-chapter, and the following subject areas get discussed:

CHAPTER 3. FOOL ME ONCE…
Social Engineering, Culture Creation, and Lifetime Actors.
CHAPTER 4. EVER GET THE FEELING YOU’VE BEEN CHEATED? GOODNIGHT!
How Punk and New Wave kept the counter-culture control grid going strong.
CHAPTER 5. HEAVY VIBES
How justified is Heavy Metal’s perceived association with Satanism and the dark occult? And why should there be any connection between these elements and the music scene in the first place?
CHAPTER 6: CYMATICS AND THE SCIENCE OF SOUND
How the science of sound frequencies - the building blocks of this ‘physical’ reality - lies at the root of music and mind-control.
CHAPTER 7. IS NOTHING SACRED?
Reflections on apparent cult influence from the earliest days of hip-hop culture, and the systematic toxification of what remains.
CHAPTER 8. IS ‘PAUL’ PAUL?
Further reflections on the replacement of Paul McCartney. Otherwise known as ‘The McCartney Mindfuck.’
CHAPTER 9. SO IT’S GOODNIGHT FROM ME, AND IT’S GOODNIGHT FROM HIM
Navigating the labyrinth of Prince and George Michael death clues.
CHAPTER 10. SAME SHIT, DIFFERENT DECADE
Decoding 1980s pop videos through a new set of lens.
THE FINAL CHAPTER … IS WAITING TO BE WRITTEN

GOOD VIBRATIONS, VOL. 119: CHARLIE FREEK - 150 CLASSIC ALBUMS, PART ONE
Listen to "Good Vibrations podcast, Vol. 119_ Charlie Freak - 150 Classic Albums, Part 1" on Spreaker.
In what is likely to be the first in an ongoing series, Canadian-born, Mexico-based researcher and serious music fan, Charlie Freek, guests to tell us about his gargantuan undertaking by the name of Lightning in a Bottle.
This is a series of 150 e-books, each analysing what Charlie considers to be an outstanding compendium of music that has stood the test of time, and whose messages remain as relevant today as they did on day one. Such landmarks are largely the product of the 1960s and ‘70s, he observes, since beyond those times, the music corporations put a systematic stranglehold on the creativity and innovation of their artists, instead introducing bland and lifeless templates, as reflected in the distinct lack of ANY truly meaningful message music in the mainstream today.
It has to be acknowledged that recent research has shown many of the artists on the list to have dubious backgrounds and questionable associations. We acknowledge this fact, and question whether empowering music delivered by such artists is merely cynical manipulation, or whether it represented these acts imparting knowledge that they had been privy to through their affiliations, and getting away with it at a time when such stances were still allowed to be taken.
We get down to discussing six albums in detail - titles by Frank Zappa & The Mothers of Invention, Stevie Wonder, Pink Floyd, Supertramp, the Police and Carole King.
Many message music songs of the kind discussed in this chat are available in this latest Truth Trip edition of the Sound of Freedom podcast, which can be streamed and downloaded from here:
