LYRICS
Goodnight to planet earth
Goodnight to loyal serfs
Keep up the noble work
We’ll get what we deserve
Although we’re really hurt
Although we’ve been coerced
We shall be reimbursed
 
For what we can for what we did
 
They build improvements on the ground
It’s 50% faster now
The neighbors children can’t be found
They’re meeting stars inside the cloud
They’re lying down to face the ground
Akashic records onward bound
The weight of 20,000 towns
Above the planet spinning round
 
Goodnight to planet earth
Goodnight to all who served
And please don’t be disturbed
We’ll get what we deserve

Lyrics:

I remember your tail lights, and the nondescript conversations, 
Trails of jet engines and walking to my door,
Would you be dead, if I’d said two words more? 

I remember the debris, and your faces lit like a rave,
Patterns of glass reflecting in the crescent moon,
A fine rain dripping down like a wound

And I don’t know what I’d do, if that truck had taken all of you,
I think the moon may disappear
But a fraction of a second kept you here

Well my little brother told me time is stolen,
And the wolves come for everyone,
But I wonder if the wreckage was an omen,
When it’s time, I think I, 
When it's time, I think I 

And I don’t know what I’d do, if that truck had taken all of you,
I think the moon may disappear,
But a fraction of a second,
But a fraction of a second,
Kept you here

Fraction of a Second

"Let's hope that our dreams turn out alright"

My incredibly talented wife is releasing a mystery-horror fiction novel called “Evergreen Peaks” this year and it’s beautiful and terrifying and thought provoking and she asked me to help her produce an original soundtrack for the book. “Wine Witch” is the first single from the EP- the chapter where times are good, drinks are flowing, and the party’s on... Until Martha goes missing. We made it into a song that you can dance or surf or eat pizza to.

Wine Witch

Sylvia Lily & Calm Canopy - Wine Witch

We are not music snobs. We prefer music connoisseurs.

Cape Town-based trio, Matthew Field (vocals and guitar), Robin Brink (drums) and Ross Dorkin (bass) deliver a unique  sound that effortlessly owns mainstream South African pop. Moved by poetry and art, Matthew took inspiration from a sketch of the Swiss town of  Beatenberg, in a book of lectures by expressionist Paul Klee. Classically trained and locally inspired, they formed in 2008 with the express desire to introduce us all to something new.

On the release of their debut, The Hanging Gardens of Beatenberg in 2014 the album became a showcase for the possibilities of pop music, exploring Kwaito, House and Mbaqanga. Beatenberg has broken radio chart records and won numerous awards as a result, including a sweep of the South African Music Awards including Album of the Year, Duo or Group of the Year, Newcomer of the Year, Best Pop Album and four awards for the riveting single “Pluto (Remember You)”.

Now joining Island Records in the Spring of their international musical journey, they're set to release 12 Views of Beatenberg at the close of 2018. There’s every reason to believe that Field, Dorkin and Brink will be South Africa’s first global pop success – and that they will do this on the back of a sound that is rooted in their home country’s indigenous styles, unfailingly moving forward to the future.
