Jaguar Strategies by Thirsting Quench and the Captains of Industry
"And you'll find that - your ether - from the inside out. Your etheric field is balancing you without you having to go out into the world and monkey around with things out there. You don't have to fix anything, correct anything, or change anything in the environment, the world, the planet, the cosmos at all. If you balance your ego by giving it the etheric yumminess." - Laraaji
audio mysticism recorded feb. 7-22, 2025 in lansing, mi. released 8.29.25, with Mercury going direct, symbolizing a return to normalcy and balance.
1. a more etheric ego: slow dissolve of interior tensions; a deep sigh fed through crystal glass.
2. transcendental, transparent, omnispatial, ultra, low density, super luminosity: a setting you briefly forget you turned on.
3. hidden behind the blindspot: field recordings from within a self-reflective hallucination.
4. four strategies: each strategy gets its own stereo channel. None of them compete.
5. repurposed ii: is it anything?
6. the law of return: built around an inverted chord progression from a yoga VHS intro.
7. cosmic phrygian manifestation at 120 bpm in 3 parts occurring simultaneously: there’s no climax—just a sense that you’ve been aligned with something vast and off-center.
the blind spot (bonus): the same as track 3, but everything is somewhere behind you.
Tracklist

This album will not ask you to do anything. It is already doing it for you. And you didn't even have to ask.
Jaguar Strategies (strategic disembodiment) is a transmission from the etheric perimeter—a liminal zone between sonic architecture and pure intent. Inspired by hyperdimensional business retreats, forgotten self-help infomercials, and the teachings of Laraaji, the album is a shimmering set of minimal, long-form contemplations.
Here, Quench trades malfunctioning tech for soft cosmology. These aren’t songs—they’re strategies: quiet initiations that ripple gently through your perceptual OS.
No climax. No drop. No resolution. Just ambient techniques for sublimating the self into tasteful gradients of light.
Recorded entirely in a repurposed glass conference room inside an abandoned high-rise wellness startup, the tracks on Jaguar Strategies arrive like passive downloads from a spiritual SaaS product no longer supported by its omniscient developer.
