The Bassstar Codex
The Lore
PREMISE
Funk is a substance.
Bottled, weaponized, scarce in the dead zones. D'YEA and crew hunt it across the galaxy.
THE VESSEL
I get my funk from a jar.
The Bassstar — a lowrider that is also a spaceship. The crew's hero object, logo, and engine.
THE KOAN
Life is a phase in phases.
The cosmic philosophy under the party. You don't have to solve the riddle — D'YEA sings on.
