André Baum - Real Feel @ Refuge Worldwide (June 2021)

1:

Playing for the soft
and working for the loud.
Playing for the lost
and working for the crowd.

Playing on the corner,
working for the cause.
Playing for nothing,
yea nothing at all.
	
So, come on.
Yea, come on.

2:

Working for the wonder,
playing on the wheel.
Working through the ways
that we always used to feel.

Playing for the fun of it,
working for the light.
Playing 'til the sun knows
I’m working for the night.

So, come on.
Yea, come on.

Chorus:

I, I, 
wanna liberate myself.
And I, I, 
wanna liberate.
I’m, I’m 
gonna liberate myself.
So I’m making friends, 
I’m making friends
with hell.	

3:

Working for the dollar,
playing in the game.
Am I working so that everybody
won’t forget my name?

I am playing for the power
working for a dream.
Am I playing with your mind
or am I coming clean?

Oh, come on.
Yea, come on.

4:

Breaking down the vision
that’s trying to delude
that everybody wants to be
someone else’s fool.

Any way you want it, 
I gotta disagree.
But what we gonna make of it
is what we gonna see.

So, come on.
Yea, come on.

Chorus: 

I, I 
wanna liberate myself.
and I, I 
wanna liberate.
I’m, I’m 
gonna liberate myself.
So I’m making friends, 
I’m making friends
with hell.


I’m, I’m 
gonna liberate myself.
and I, I
wanna liberate.
I’m, I’m 
gonna liberate myself.
So I'm making friends,
I'm making friends
I'm making friends,
yea, I'm making friends,
I'm making friends,
I'm making friends,
with hell.

André Baum - Making Friends (With Hell)

Opening Track on Beyondré Is Born EP.
https://open.spotify.com/album/6vO4Vzf7qognyKEXtWVkzi?si=uW5cGZxTQAids7Qg9BI75A 

LYRICS:

Show me what it's like to be a star:
bursting open right from here to Mars.

I know I'm not a man, 
I know no top, I am a Sun.
Ain't no one gonna break my soul, 
ain't no one gonna break my flow, oh oh oh.

Show me what it's like to be a black hole in the sky.
come up, rising, bring it on,
ain't nobody gonna quell this fire.

I got myself up high and flying, need no ride,
bring it up and move aside, or
bring it up and bring the light, hey hey.

Oh God, oh God, I hear the ring, I hear the call:
gotta heed this birthing 'fore I go down with the fall,
alright, alright, alright, I gotta thank it all,
yes the world's on fire, but even so, here we go…

Alright, alright, alright...

Beyondré - The Rattle Up

Closing song from Beyondré Is Born EP.

LYRICS:

Something in the way it goes,
something in the ocean flow
tells me, "hold on,"
tells me, "hold on."

Something in the way you move,
something in the ocean blue
tells me, "let go."
tells me, "let go."

Even when I wanna get right off of it,
even when I can't stand the sight of it,
even when i don't wanna be here
but I wanna:

get back on track,
get back on track,
get back into the beat...

So we wrote all our stories down,
but we left behind the light.
So we wrote all our stories down,
but we traded in our sight.

Something in the way you move,
something in the ocean blue,
tells me, "let go,"
tells me, "let go."


Something in the way it goes,
something in the ocean flow,
tells me, "hold on,"
tells me, "hold on."

Beyondré - Ocean Flow

André Baum is a writer, singer, musician, and producer from NYC. The Berlin-based artist creates at the intersection of sound, image, and word. Classically trained in piano, Baum’s early love of electronic music, hip-hop, and 2000’s New York bands helped shape his unique style. For the past 15 years of composition and performance, Baum’s multimedia practice has covered a broad spectrum of music, artwork, and film for stage, gallery, and recorded formats.
As a solo recording artist, Baum debuted as Beyondré in 2014 with an EP of alternative-electronic songs titled “Beyondré is Born.” As a conceptual sound artist, Baum crafts installations and improvised performances using voice, live electronics, and field recordings. These most notably include a series of works with iconic German artist Rebecca Horn. Frequently drawn to collaboration, Baum’s first producer credit was with Vanessa Daou’s “One Thing I’m Missing”, which he composed around Daou’s acappella vocals using sounds from an apartment in Lower East Side, NY and debuted on BBC 6. As one-half of electronic duo People People, Baum released his first 12” on Discobar in 2020. It featured a club remix by techno legend Ricardo Villalobos.
In 2021, Baum released a series of singles and music videos as an introduction to songs under his own name. He also premiered live at Berlin’s Club der Visionaere, both solo and with duo People People. In 2022, Baum continued his live streak and hosted People People Things in Berlin. So far, 2023 saw Baum release “Forgive the Night” EP with Chris Korda, debut People People live at NYC’s Resolute/Can You Jigit party, release LPs from Beyondré and People People with Yoyaku, and contribute a song for Seth Troxler’s new label Slacker 85.
