Tetelestai is an ancient greek word which according to the Gospel of John was the last thing that Jesus uttered before his death. It means “It is finished”.

It was also the basic meaning of the suite I’ve been writing over the past few months.

It has also been great for me, both as a musician and as a person, my skills have grown and many of the darker elements of my soul have been able to be poured out through my music.

Since those two areas of growth were the reason I started this insanity in the first place, and with the time I spent on it needing to be reallocated to my studies, it is time to stop the weekly song schedule.

Not that ChaotiMusic.com is completely finished. I will return, but only when a song is ready.
