Bad Guy (Mazerunner)

Badguy prod by 6tracks

"Pull My Finger" is a whimsical musical romp that my mother loves. True story. She is partly responsible for my sense of humor. So is Frank Zappa. There are synth horns, Borg-enhanced piano shenanigans, guitar antics, bass-tastic loopiness, a sick groove, whacky lead tones, and (subliminal?) squeaky farts. What more do you want? Pull my finger. No, really, it's a surprise...

Pull My Finger

From the moment they released their debut record Genus Equus back in 2017, the duo of Mark Christianson and John P. Kline, entered into an entire realm of inventive instrumental sound with limitless potential and possibilities.  As The Music Therapy Experiment, they’ve gone on to release a brand-new record like clockwork each and every year ever since, making their latest entry – Art and Science – the fifth audibly adventurous album they’ve put out for the world to enjoy in the process of building a legacy of innovative and imaginative sound of their own design.  You are cordially invited to join the fun! 

Over the course of eleven stunning new tunes, The Music Therapy Experiment dives deep into Art and Science on every conceivable level.  Through the wildly artistic & ambitious structuring of their instrumentation, to the use of advanced technological gear in the studio, The Music Therapy Experiment proudly blurs the line between Art and Science, and proves how effective they can be when combined in tandem.  From blissfully serene melodies, to the intensity of their most supercharged moments, Mark & John surge with passion in their performances, and display how powerfully effective they are as a cohesive unit as they passionately morph through complex time-signatures, intricately played instrumentation, and genuinely unique ideas that take them enthusiastically into an unexplored universe of sound & style – real hybrid fusion guaranteed to stimulate serious brainwaves & generate good times. 

With both players competently & capably trading instruments & lead songwriting duties along the way, the latest album by The Music Therapy Experiment speaks volumes on behalf of what Mark and John are able to achieve on their own, DIY, together.  Art and Science features a spectacular wealth of professionalism from the production to their performances, yet also retains the inspired attitude, original authenticity, and spirited fun that fans around the globe know & love The Music Therapy Experiment for.  As ambitious & challenging as it was to create, the end results reveal an album that is as equally compelling as it is entertaining – Art and Science is a thought-provoking, evocative, all-out gripping record from start to finish that is filled with sensory songs & unforgettable experiences. 

From endearing & heartwarming atmospheres, to unapologetically fierce musical expressionism, Art and Science contains something uniquely special for everybody listening, and shines a bright light on their evolution in sound.  Through their remarkable talents combined in an array of dazzling instrumentation, and the infusion of both Art and Science within their songs, The Music Therapy Experiment has created a collage of style that celebrates vibes found from the east to the west in a set-list that knows no borders or limitations when it comes to entertainment.

"Sk8" by Kainen, produced by UrbanProducer4L, is a mellow yet introspective track that captures the essence of urban nightlife, the thrill of freedom, and the complex dynamics of spending money and energy on women when you’re in a position to do so. The song’s smooth, laid-back vibe takes listeners through the pulse of the city, blending atmospheric sounds with reflective lyricism that explores both the highs and deeper emotions of living in the fast lane.
The track speaks to the allure of the nightlife—those late-night encounters where money flows freely and the stakes feel higher. Kainen reflects on the experience of enjoying the company of women who carry an edge, women who stand out not just for their beauty, but for the confidence and authenticity they bring. There’s an appreciation for women who are unapologetically themselves, embracing their individuality while navigating the same urban landscape. The song also touches on the freedom that comes with success and how, with that success, there's an inclination to spend lavishly, whether it's on women or experiences that heighten the thrill of living in the moment.
Kainen’s vocal delivery is smooth and confident, yet introspective, balancing the excitement of the urban lifestyle with a deeper reflection on what it means to be connected to those around you. The lyrics explore the contrast between the rush of indulgence and the genuine admiration for women who embody strength, independence, and edge. It’s not just about the surface-level attraction, but about finding value in the raw, unfiltered nature of people who aren’t afraid to show who they truly are.
UrbanProducer4L’s production provides the perfect backdrop, with a chilled-out beat that carries a sense of motion and space. Soft synths, subtle basslines, and hypnotic percussion give the track a fluid, almost dreamlike quality, as if skating through the night and allowing the city to wash over you. The beat mirrors the laid-back yet ever-moving nature of the track, creating a vibe that’s both relaxed and full of energy.
"Sk8" is an anthem for those who enjoy the rush of urban living, who appreciate the freedom that comes with success, and who have a deep admiration for women who own their edge. It’s a celebration of the city, the women who define it, and the luxurious thrill of being in a place where anything feels possible.

Brother!  What do you know?  You feel the walls are closing in on you?Oh
You say, up is down, and down is up.  What goes around comes around

You can say it again, the walls are closing in. Again

Mother!   Where did you go?  I feel my heart beneath my feet, oh
I say! Did we just win? Or lose?  Again?  The walls are closing in again.

You can say it again, the walls are closing in. Again

Father!  What do I know?  Will we refuse to feed the malice?  Oh
They say, “what does he know?”  

You can say it again, the walls are closing in.   Again
