HOTEP - Instrumental Rock for Keyboard, Guitar and Bass | AsteriskedMusic.Com
"Hotep" is an Egyptian word meaning "peace."
This is an instrumental rock song for electric keyboard, guitar and bass. From a technical standpoint, the piece takes the form of a theme and variation.
The stories told in Egypt, and the forms, laws, and totems they revered are all the same ones revered by the Western world today. "The Book of the Dead" has become "The Books of the Law." The ankh has become a cross. The "Ark of the Covenant" was the "Ark of the Contract." We turn to Sol-Om-On, and end our prayers with a dedication to The Hidden One. All cultures in the West have been variation on the themes handed down by Egypt. Even now, behind our facade of city skylines, corporate headquarters, and places of law-making, the heart of the Father beats, reconstituted and reborn.
