Kendrick - Espirito Rico (Sango Mix)

As a band, our primary focus is the live performance; and with Two Rooms - EP, we aimed to create an honest portrayal of our music just as we play it. On a small budget, we committed ourselves to recording Two Rooms in two days at Big Orange Studio, and to tracking all of the songs live. 

Perhaps unconventional, the ten song EP is comprised of five improvised sketches (Chautauqua, Rhombus, Movements, and Two Rooms), one soundscape (Wild Senna), and four live-recorded songs (Scout, Riverburn, Amarillo and Headrush). Thus Two Rooms - EP paints a genuine picture. It is an introductory glimpse into both who we are and what we want to do together as musicians. 

Riley Engemoen, a great friend of ours and an incredible filmmaker, filmed us in the studio and made a video that premiered via Pop Press International (www.poppressinternational.com/2014/04/16/post-rock-band-chipper-jones-video-premiere-amarilloheadrush/) and can be viewed here: vimeo.com/91907041.

Cash Cobain X Aaliyah - Are You That Fisherrr (Sango Mix) (Original Pitch)

messing around with some MIDI keyboard at work and came up with a fun song that reminded me of some Mother jam.

maybe it'll be a real chip song someday!

Lyrics:
I scare myself, that never scared you away
you want me back, I’m hostage by my shame
Through change I can finally say “goodbye”
To what I had become just to survive

A little alchemy of the self, transforming within
The catalyst reclaims everything I should’ve been
When chrysalis begins repentance sneaks in
And I can’t stop wondering if you think I’m cool yet

Do you think I’m cool yet?

Part of my sin was wondering when it ends
Part of my sin was wondering when it ends
Now I can’t stand the thought of going under
Knowin’ that you need me to hold you when it thunders
And now I can’t stand the thought of going under at all, at all

Now I can’t stand the thought of growing older
With the time I wasted when we were both younger
I think I’ll spend the rest of my life trying to make it right

A little alchemy of the self, transforming within
The catalyst reclaims everything I should’ve been
When chrysalis begins repentance sneaks in
And I can’t stop wondering if you think I’m cool yet

Do you think I’m cool yet?

Lyrics:
A dissonance, anomaly
Decode the furrows in your brow, await to speak

Different code, or inadequacy?
The flowered path I long for wasn’t meant for me

I can live without your touch
If you love when I’m a little too much
Don’t hold my hand
Just hold my gaze until it stops

I won’t even hold a grudge
Thinking of it makes my head rush
Don’t hold my hand
Just say my name until I calm

The beckoning electricity
A static stands between your fingertips and me

It plagues moral, my memory
My creator’s not as kind as you can be

I seek relief within a dream
But the thought alone has compromised my sleep

You reach out to me, and you were plush

If you could get away
I’m sure you would’ve by now
But no, you don’t care about it
And you’re mine

Bjork first influenced me to be an electronic producer, so it is only appropriate that I have remixed her track.

"All Neon Like" from her album 'Homogenic.'

Now a part of Sole Glow Collective's Compilation 2!
