*Milky*
aye aye aye … listen up …

What were you conditioned to believe in?
Is a woman and a man equal are they even?
Love is unconditional then does it need a reason?
If a man loves a man is he a heathen?

If we both love girls have a threesome
bring her cousin, get our freak on
I don’t really care who I put meat on 
you can turn the lights off, baby leave the beat on

I be like …

Love who you wanna love.
fuck who you wanna fuck, suck who you wanna suck.
Love who you wanna love.
Plus you can never love too much

yeah and really though:

See I don’t fuck with the requirements
and I don’t chime in when the choir sings
Hose you down like the firemen
I think the patriarchy needs retirement, so I’m denying them.

• Are you under the rainbow looking up or on a high-horse looking down?

*Malu*
Gay pride wants you to fall, why don't you want that pot of gold. 

*Peter*
You do you I'ma do me
we don't gotta be enemies
jus because we disagree
everyone is entitled to their own opinion
not hurtin anyone continue livin how you livin
be who you are don't hide yoself
if you do then you'll always feel by yoself
I'm not gay but if I was
what other people thought I wouldn't give a fuck
so nothin against anybody that is
it's your choice to live the life you live
live it
people fear what they don't understand
it's double bad if you're a gay Black Man
some men love to see Women kiss
but not 2 men yo that don't make sense
but again people like what they like
but what what you likes not a reason to take yo life

• Are you under the rainbow looking up or on a high-horse looking down?

*Malu*
Misogyny and hate, your mother would be so ashamed. 
Within your lyrics, there beats a second pulse. 
But you don't care as long as you wear gold. 

*Couch*
Looking up not giving up
Sure footing not secure enough 
Thru signaling escape rebuff  
Still limiting by law will snuff

Ya think ya finna stand right up
Until ya bout to loose ya stuff 
Ya medals and your trophy cups
Your devils that a cause stir up

Your chance to be the best in club
Your stance that causes mass erupt
Societal division ta
Keep the power that is stuck  

This ain’t disorderly conduct   
When independence disrupts they don’t give a fuck 
When it comes down to it will I give it up 
Step down from looking down and start looking up

*Malu*
Gay pride wants you to fall, why don't you want that pot of gold. 
Within your lyrics, there beats a second pulse. 
But you don't care as long as you wear gold. 

• Are you under the rainbow looking up?

Silent Island

stranded on islands
controlled by my silence
stranded on islands alone

don't feed the hand that bites
when you try to help
cause this life is too short 
that it hurts just to think of it

brought up on violence,
poverty, whining
stranded on silence alone

don't slap the mouth that tries
slap the mouth that lies
cause this life is too short 

staple my eyelids
come here and try it
stranded with violence to cope

don't feed the hand that bites
when you try to help
cause this life is too short 
that it hurts just to think of it

glad to survive it
my ego and my id
stranded to silence, engulfed

don't feed hands, don't tell lies
don't slap mouths, don't bite
cause this life is too short

silence island is mine
there is no one in sight
only sunlight for miles
I do not have to fight
silence island is mine

Silent Island

It begins with a heartbeat and ends with it. 
Let's enjoy the life we have.

Big thanks!

*Symphony Of Silence*

In the quiet of the twilight, shadows dance with memories.
The echoes of your laughter, the whispers of your name, expanded in this silence, forever changed.

The void you left, a chasm deep, a requiem for love we used to keep.
The realm of shadows, where you reside - can't navigate the echoes, on this lonely ride.

Symphony of silence, a sound of voices.
An echo fades to grey, fades to grey, a distant waning sound.
Symphony of silence, the sound of voices, the try on minds.
The echo of emotion.

A symphony of silence, a funeral of grace,
A tapestry of longing, I etched upon my face.
The void, I'm drifting, lost at sea, an elegy for you - a requiem for me.

Symphony of silence, a sound of voices.
An echo fades to grey, fades to grey, a distant waning sound.
Symphony of silence, the sound of voices, the try on minds.
The echo of emotion.

NOISE LAUNDRY is a collaborative album consisting of 17 tracks composed by various international artists. All the tracks are based on stems provided from a lo-fi noise recording session I held in the summer of 2014 while waiting for my laundry to wash.

NOISE LAUNDRY is released by Dhatura Records as a free digital download at https://dhaturarecords.bandcamp.com/album/noise-laundry .

This is a promotional mix quickly highlighting some threads of the noise within. We would be more than happy if you shared this mix to as many fellow noise-lovers as possible to gain a wide audience for this unique project. 

The album is mastered by Steffen Lilie aka https://soundcloud.com/bitzone. 
Artwork by Utu Lautturi. 

Original stems used can be found below. They are still free to download and use as you please, only hoping you'll link the original project on your track.

Huge thanks to all the artists involved for making a quirky idea into fantastic reality. Stay creative, and experiment endlessly!

"It was a funky record - it's one of my favorite Beatles tracks, or, one of my favourite Lennon tracks, let's say that. It's funky, it's bluesy, and I'm singing it pretty well. I like the sound of the record. You can dance to it. I'd buy it!"

*Come Together*

Here come old flattop he come grooving up slowly
He got joo-joo eyeball he one holy roller
He got hair down to his knee
Got to be a joker he just do what he please

He wear no shoeshine he got toe-jam football
He got monkey finger he shoot coca-cola
He say "I know you, you know me"
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free
Come together right now over me

He bag production he got walrus gumboot
He got Ono sideboard he one spinal cracker
He got feet down below his knee
Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease
Come together right now over me

He roller-coaster he got early warning
He got muddy water he one mojo filter
He say "One and one and one is three"
Got to be good-looking 'cause he's so hard to see
Come together right now over me

* As Beautiful *

You have that look in your eye
let's waste the time

& I hear the words that you say to me
& I fear your face has way more to say

you have that sound in your voice
I had no choice

& I'm fine, 'til you smile & look my way
& I pine, 'less you show it with your face

so you've got to know
assume, fake the glow

the view from the hull
there's few as beautiful

*Free Parking*

I'm sorry more
I stare, for sure
you see

wait, I don't know your name
strange, memories can change
escape's illegal in most states
be brave and lead your own damn way

I'm sorry for conditioned folks
who dream
I'm sorry for your broken soul
that screams

straight, in case you all fear change
hate because you're so afraid
be brave and leave the dead their graves
insane is a commodity these days

*Twilight Holidays*

I hear night-owls, wolf howls and barks scatter
Just a couple trees that lit up between dark matter
A bottle Henny and a story by the campfire
That little lamb's blood save it from the vampires

There's excitement in this new enticement
And temptations have you tip-toing 'round what's wrong and righteous
Virgin Mary ran off due to a past indictment
And bad desires, and bad advice by bad girl MIA

She went stray off the path and now she lack enlightenment
But there is ways to get higher and you can bet she'll find 'em
She saw the weed, she saw the shrooms, voices told her to try 'em
And now there ain't no way to get to her, she took off flyin'

She saw the make-belief, she saw the story biased 
So she bid defiance towards her confinement
What if Mary and Lucy had an alliance
And heaven and hell had an alignment..

 Yeah, find yourself something to do
 Find a way to alter you
 Pop in the cap of a 'shroom and chew
 Yeah find yourself something to do
 Waste away all of those moods
 Expand, love and alter your view

She went stray off the path and now she lack enlightenment
But there is ways to get higher and you can bet she'll find 'em
She saw the weed, she saw the shrooms, voices told her to try 'em
And now there ain't no way to get to her, she took off flyin'

She saw the make-belief, she saw the story biased 
So she bid defiance towards her confinement
What if Mary and Lucy had an alliance
And heaven and hell had an alignment..

 Yeah, find yourself something to do
 Let this smoke fill up your room
 Holiday (molly-day) out on the moon, with 'shrooms
 Yeah, find yourself something to do
 Waste away, smoke, drink or chew
 Expand, love and pass on the mood

*Woebegone*

woebegone, it hurts so long
woebegone, I bleed in song

now you know, now you all can just say that you know
now you don't, because who ever does, really, though
now you're sold, buying into what they're selling you
now you're owned by the same feelings you once controlled
feelings that you once controlled

woebegone, just move along
woebegone, thought I was strong

now you know, now you all can just say that you know
now you don't, because who ever does, really, though
now you're sold, buying into what they're selling you
now you're owned by the same feelings you once controlled

woebegone, parallelopipedon
woebegone, this pain don't belong
woebegone, it hurts so long
woebegone, it feels so wrong

now you know, now you all can just say that you know
now you're sold

• Zeit genug •

Auf und stürzen,
hin zu all dem,
weiter wünschen, wo bist du?
Vorn im Schiff schlägt
Gold nach mir.

Vorn nach vorne,
Griff an Griff,
in die Seile und an Bord.
Brandgeruch -
das Leuchten lockt
mich weiter,
immer weiter.

Eingezogen
in die Ferne,
an den Rand die Hand gepresst.
Schieb’ mich weiter
fort zum Glück

Auf nach Norden,
auf der Welle,
eingekeilt und keiner sieht:
still und starrer
wirkt der Rumpf -
er schwankt
und steht.

Zeit genug, immer mehr,
immer sehr bestimmt,
niemand hält sie fest,
niemand der gewinnt.
Zeit genug, immer mehr,
immer sehr bestimmt,
niemand hält sie fest!

Jetzt ist hiersein,
hier ist greifbar,
was die ganze Nacht gelacht.
Meine Hand streckt
hin zum Lohn.

Endlich Sterne,
Ganz weit vorne,
spür ich den Gewinn,
doch, fühl ich, dass
längst Asche fliegt.
Flieh, das Segel brennt!

Zeit genug, immer mehr,
immer sehr bestimmt,
niemand hält sie fest,
niemand der gewinnt.
Zeit genug, immer mehr,
immer sehr bestimmt,
niemand hält sie fest!

Zeit genug

Zeit Genug

Great big thanks to Bitzone for reaching out and inspiring me to make music with him. He has been very patient with my process and generous with his creativity. He is a real cool guy and I am lucky to get to know him better. Lyrics and vocals only come out of me if the music's and my muses can make love with each other. 

The cold long overcast winters of the Pacific Northwest Portland Oregon area and the current nature of my work have affected me differently than the Sunny California positive vibing Bay Area. Therefor, I see life differently and my soul says different things. But the late spring and summer is alive with color and joyous with energy over here, making me more well rounded.

Blessings to the many experiences, dimensions, and moods of life.

Lyrics:

I’m sick of this world
I’m quick to unfurl
I light up the wick
And picture myself 
In the underworld

There’s many ways to die 
And I give ‘em a try
Each time that I lie
And close up my eyes 
Kapow 
Bak bak

Nobody cares
No one hears my prayers 
All I bear is unfair
I swear that I’ll tear
Your hair out if you speak 
Shut the fuck up

It ain’t just my fault
How I’m under assault 
Blaming is your default 
You pour salt on mistakes 
To try and validate
Your perceived superiority

A piece of advice
And you move on with you life 
I don’t owe ya
A thanks
I don’t owe ya

Get me to see 
My responsibility 
I don’t owe ya
A sorry
I don’t owe ya

This is my demise
Don’t tell me bout my life 
I don’t care if you think 
That you care
I’m aware
That I’m a fuck up

This is how my dream dies 
Don’t tell me to realize 
Who I am 
Cause you think that I am
Someone
That’s not a fuck up

Cause I am fuck up just a fuck up
I am fuck up
A real fuck

Telling me to shut up 
Always telling me to shut up

Bitzone and the Couch King - I Don't Owe Ya

It's hot and dry here since months, the fields are scorched and the grass is brown - we need rain!
Russ' song is a perfect plead - what else can we do? Let's sing and perform his rain dance in a new robe - umm ma da, umm ma da ...

Lyrics:
Sneekie San Salvador 
Sneekie as it gets 
Always trying to make the little kids upset 
Loves it when they cry and they eyes get all wet 
Never lies in fear and has no regrets 
Never sheds a tear when a lady trips down the steps 
Probably sawed her heals, got the skills of a vet 
Master of the trip wire sire sneak attack 
Watched home alone a million times and knows how to make a trap 
Lurking in the shadows, tip towing like a cat 
Whiling humming the Ramones, singing beat on the brat 
Beat on the brat with a baseball bat 
Oh yea he is despicable, lives in an unlivable room that’s a mess 
Leaves his clothes on the ground, picks it up just to get dressed 
A little depressed and has a hard time sleeping, leaves the tv on at night 
When he sees a baby dreaming, coughs to give ‘em a fright 

Likes to get even and always takes the last cookie 
When told to turn around, always takes a lookie lookie 
Got the parenting skills of a young rookie 
Always sends the kids to bed with out brushing 
And when they get it in their head that it’s time to brush their teeth 
Rushes to the fridge and looks inside for some OJ to make them drink 
He’s a master (Hot Damn) of the slight of hand with a knack to make you think 
Sneekie San Salvador 
Turn the other way he’ll take a sip of your drink 

Don’t hate i’m deeper than you think 
Don’t hate i play dumb with a wink 
My snap comes from on the brink 
My bite goes beneath the pink 
Don’t hate i’m deeper than you think

It's like the world just doesn’t know how let it go 
It's like this feeling that i’m just supposed go and blow 
Your big egos just wants me to shrink 
Like I never have belonged here 
i’m spinning my wheels around the rink 
Doing my best not to disappear 
Doing my best not to disappear 
All you think i’m trying to do is interfere but there’s no other way out of here 

Don’t hate i’m deeper than you think 
Don’t hate i play dumb with a wink 
My snap comes from on the brink 
My bite goes beneath the pink 
Don’t hate i’m deeper than you think

Respect is something earned
Not given
Live and learn 
Stop tripping 
What would your mama say, huh?
Just gotta keep it real
How ya living?
the same thing you are living your life for
would you be willing to die for?
do you have it in you to try more?

——

how should I start this? 
well first I'm a lifelong artist 
who obviously ain't the smartest about it 
I'm honest at least though 
lots of cats out here are high on thy ego 
second I'm a simple man I see y'all as equals 
each an individual and all y'all my peoples 
free will is principle three because we hold 
the potential to know things if only we could bring ourselves to think 
and let's see what number four is 
I don't know - please I just came here to flow 
not to talk about me - let's go 
should I talk about you? I don't know 
spark of genius the gears they’re a’turning
my mind’s a machine which appears to be working 
if I am to get anywhere near where I am destined to go
then one thing is for certain
it’s all up to me the one and only person
upon whom my future depends this is perfect
because no one other than I and I 
will share the same primary concern kid
as the center of my inner circle
I understand the importance of my purpose
a controversial public service
should I do some soul searching?

Respect is something earned

Just gotta keep it real
How ya living?
the same thing you are living your life for

do you have it in you to try more?

——

speaking to the people them ain't keeping any secrets 
I'm just reaching to achieve something that no one can believe 
I can feel it in the deepest of depths of my spirit 
I'm frequently thinking out loud you can hear it you can see 
make nothing but progress follow my own lead 
acquiring knowledge fulfilling my needs 
I either win or I learn - because I take the time to read between the lines indeed 
speaking to the people them I keep on sending messages 
no secret it's intended for the people them so let's begin 
again enter the next dimension with the way that I get it in 
the people them they digging it the wickedness 
if this isn't enough then stay tuned to bear witness when 
whatever turn of events it is that will happen hits 
the rhythm of life
this is it
time space continuum type

Eight Soundcloud musicians together, what an experience!
I wet my pants and at the same time I am incredibly proud. This song is one of the most exciting I've ever done. 
I am really grateful for the encouragement from all sides during the process, thank you very much!

I hope to speak for all involved - may you, esteemed listeners, enjoy the song!

*Black Into Blue*
(Frawstakwa)
we’ve dreamt in the darkness ending with dawn
opening upon vast expanses beyond
the shadows of structures we’re stretching across
intersections of our systems of thought
which should serve to strengthen us all
awakening the sleeping dragon c’mon
I take it we might need to break down some walls
to let in some light clear the air knock it off

(Couch)
I’ve been holdin’ on vision goin’ strong
Days are long not looking forward to the dawn
When the rays are gone sleep can linger on
Eternal rest I’d be blessed ain’t saying sinners wrong 
I can confess but god be my witness 
I never did much harm so why do I feel forlorn 
Manifest the stress of the station I was born
You gave me hope but I was torn pessimistic 
Fellin’ the pressure to be realistic 
That’s a whole lotta haters talking
That’s my inner mocking 
That’s the life generations have been walking
That’s the future for my kids I’ve been hopping I’ve been stopping
You say it’s just me who’s been blocking
Ain’t knocking the pursuit but startin’ negative on the loot
Got me resolute this dream was never true 
For me 
Still heading black into blue 
We’ll see

(Frawstakwa)
if not that then let us pause 
in silent reflection a song
somehow inspiring awe 
black into blue and I yawn
as the eastern pearl of blonde
rises and fires a shot
from where the horizon was born
that single line on the dot
signed sealed delivered and hot
get up give it all you’ve got
we’re only here on this rock
to do what we need to so what do you want?
time for me to stop

(Stoney)
keep your head strong, when light comes, I will meet you where 

the sky will brighten up my dear, 
your eyes will finally see clear, 
outside it's too cold for this fear, 
black into blue, this bruise will heal

is the dream ending here, goodbye to the fear, from cave I appear

the sky will brighten up my dear, 
your eyes will finally see clear, 
outside it's too cold for this fear, 
black into blue, this bruise will heal

*Troof*

(PS)
You think you know people and hope people know you
and hope and pray
for a mate
to help you with what you go thru
but not everyone gets that
some people by themselves gotta race like a rat
but sometimes that's the best route to take
because too many people now days too fake
too snake
make
you feel safe
all the watchin ya moves while they contemplate
I still have my Mother but many have lost theirs
I hate to say or hear it but life is not fair
you'll go many things that'll make ya heart tear
too late for appreciation when the people not there
you learn every day of ya life ya pay attention
someone tell you that they been thru sumn you should listen
you might have it bad but somebody else is worse off
no food no roof in the rain wit they shirt off

(SC)
spitting truth at you
facts don't matter to you
truth just loves getting used

lies upside your head
as if words weren't dead
as truth just spreads it's legs

(PS)
Young people take heed and listen to older people
and don't take this the wrong way but we are not equal
stop thinkin that you know everything
because in reality you really haven't been thru anything
yet nor do I know it all
but I've been through enough that I can give advice to y'all
like
if you pay attention you'll realize you learn every day of ya life
and alot of y'all got a strong sense of entitlement
like you should be handed everything and not work for it
pssh fuck outta here
most of you will learn the hard way it's tough out here
don't think that I'm sayin I did everything right
I made a ton of bad decesions throughout my life
don't do the same thing and expect different results
and listen ta ya elders when they tryin to get you taught

(SC)
slapping you with truth
brass knuckles to boot rubes
you best not test my mood

lies upside your head
as if words weren't dead
truth just makes too much sense

Trendsetting keeps within the spirt of “It Ain’t Looking Good” by taking it’s inspiration from people I meet at work and the neighborhood I work in. Two youth I know were really proud of having fake Yeezy Boost 350s. I have never been into sneaker culture but have had friends at various points in time that were. I had never seen Yeezys before, and don’t like Kanye's personality, but I had to find out more about these shoes. I eventually went down the rabbit hole and learned more about counterfeit shoes. It reminded me of a scene from the movie “I’m Gonna Get You Sucka,” where they were talking about fake gold necklaces making your skin green (at least I think it was a scene in that movie, lol). It also reminded me of a time I went to Malaysia and someone I knew was following lead after lead, into alley after alley, to get the highest quality imitation purses and watches. Capitalism. Consumerism. Well whatever. lol

Huge shout out to Bitzone, DeeP, and Frawstakwa for regularly reaching out to make music with me. I am grateful to have so many collaborators and online musical friendships. You are all the best. Having friends to make music with and a community to share creations with is what matters the most. 

This song goes out to being in nature instead of a store.

Lyrics

Couch King

Got cheap knock offs all the way to that good shit 
Looking so fly even though it’s all counterfeit  
What you wanna buy if you wanna it i can get it
Bet it looks so real its a steal, don’t forget it
I’m on this hustle fo sheezy, breezy
Duffle full of kicks on the shoulder cause it’s easy
Russell what you think of that
I don’t know
Bro don’t knock it cause it’s cheesy 
Yo yo wez be slanging 
Hanging on the corner  
With that 90 beeper ranging 
We be trend settin’

Doesn’t matter if it is the real thing 
As long as photos looking just like magazines
Still coppin’ that lifestyle without the means
Ya still jockin’ my lifestyle like I got the cream  

Movin’ luxury hoax at hyper speed
We lootin’ big money folks cause you got them needs
These black market sneaks legit they don’t mislead 
Flexin’ dem bootleg fits with that bargain price greed 
You see it’s all about making impressions, flexin’ 
Who be first wearing what’s next n,’ vexin’
Haters commentators disrespectin’  
Fakers gettin’ caught catchin’ wreck’n 
Next time bettin’ you learn your lesson 
Upgrade fool 
We be trend settin’ 

Heart click gold

Doesn’t matter if it is the real thing 
As long as photos looking just like magazines
Still coppin’ that lifestyle without the means
Ya still jockin’ my lifestyle like I got the cream

Frawstakwa

Suckas swear they’ve got style
I sit back and smile
Kick my feet up
We might be here for a while
You see the thing about style
That is so worthwhile
Is it’s a feeling
Not a product that you buy

Nonetheless fools will try
Like it ain’t no lie
You won’t believe what
They’d do so you’d think they’re fly
And fit the image prescribed
Fashion designed
It all to keep the
Bottom line in mind
But, um
Does it pay to advertise
Or pay to play the part
Pay attention to the price
You pay they say that time
Is money but to treasure life
Can’t be measured by
User metrics influencers provide
Virtually unreal ventures capitalized
On the findings
Black Friday good tidings
Gift wrapped you’re welcome
But, you are not that fly

Switch

and then a switch goes off in my head
fuck seeing red, I'm talking losing losing my shit
how have you been? what a stupid question
make me some sense, I'm sure I'll lose it again

I'm a calm and zen ocean
would you care for a swim
I'm a bomb without a tick
don't hit my switch

well, I've been robbed
and stabbed and then
forgotten

and then a switch goes off, like I said
fuck seeing red, I'm talking raising the dead
where to begin? - what a fucking stupid question
switch up your stance, let's try and lose it against

Switch

Thanks for listening!
Thanks to all collaborators!
