FEEL MY BICEP PLAYLIST - part 2

Helsinki is a wreck
The cashier, the landlord, the tourist, the bystanders
sixteen varieties of insomnia
honestly, i'm dead,
dead tired

catch the once and for all, in your sleep at night
push through dark's canal
or what is the gate

Running 'Dead Tired'

⋰⋱ a response to the conditions of light and humidity, reacting to changes in temperature and pressure fields ⋰⋱ it is the channeling of the force beyond notes, that illuminates the imagined planes of Mugwort Prairie⋰⋱

I'm telling you now 
I'm telling you now 
I'm telling you now 
I'm telling you now 
I'm gonna let go
I'm gonna let go
I'm gonna let go
I'm gonna let go

I'm telling you now 
I'm telling you now 
I'm telling you now 
I'm telling you now 
I'm gonna let go
I'm gonna let go
I'm gonna let go
I'm gonna let go

Supposed to be a lifetime bond
In the heart shaped play, something's wrong
I'm telling you now 
I'm telling you now 
I'm gonna let go
I'm gonna let go

Thick air is solid, lick the drops
The mist will help me to get lost
I'm telling you now 
I'm telling you now 
I'm gonna let go
I'm gonna let go

There's something in the earth, I see
It shall give me eternal seeds
They're telling me now
They're telling me now
Pull it out pull it out
Pull the fucking blade out

The rapid's coming
Drown my metal
I Need Your Power
To pull it back up
You're telling me now 
You're telling me now
Pull it out, pull it out
Pull the fucking blade out

Pull it out, pull it out
Pull the fucking blade out

I Need Your Power

BLADE

FOREST

There's something about me not inviting
but it wants you in, it wants you in
I need you to be brave i cant take a breath
before you make up your mind and body
My body is dried up from waiting
The blood is hot from waiting
For all I know time has stopped
My body is dried up from waiting
The blood is hot from waiting
For all I know time has stopped...

hey would you play an animal if i say thats my way?

ANIMAL

I do not fear the darkness

God is in the bond

Do not fear the darkness

After the extensive “Uncanny Valley 20” compilation we go back to our classic 4- track-format for “Uncanny Valley 025”. Taking the chance to introduce 3 new artists to our roster, we warmly welcome Lake People, Philipp Triebel and RJ (who is also one half of Dürerstuben) to add their distinctive flavour to this record.

Lake People doesn’t need an introduction anymore as his smart and emotional productions are making rounds from Ibiza to your basement club around the corner. His “Unexpected End Of Archive” is another example for his knack to produce tracks that evokes an emotional maelstrom on the dance floor. Beautiful synth melodies are meandering throughout the tune while the slick drum arrangement provides just enough tension to keep your feet on the floor.

Philipp Triebel caught our ear with his live set when we played together at a party in his hometown Giessen. After handing in demos for some time he now contributes “Unity” to this compilation. Clocking in at just 4 and a half minutes it gets us moving with tight chords, tricky drums and a short but prominent synth melody that will be heavy on the dance floor.

The B-side features two tracks by RJ, a member of the 2014 edition of RBMA in Tokyo. “Leo” is an excellent piece of slowly rising House music that pushes the right buttons at just the right time. With melancholic robots on vocals duties and dreamy synth pads this track literally tells a story. Closing the record is “Nie” which rises the pace and takes a similar path like its predecessor with moony synths and a very catchy melody.

As always with the Various Artists EPs on Uncanny Valley, the artwork is by courtesy of illustrator Paul Waak, this time with a fresh new approach.

Recovery

Nothing Is Real

New York Is A Desert

After his second cardiac arrest where his heart was revived for the second time in Homerton Hospital (Hackney, London, UK), MR 28GRAMS decided to give life another chance. Upon recovery and returning to his routines, he coasted over to his neighbor’s to bum weed. Fellow Homerton resident, Finnish trans woman, rapper and producer Ville Valoton recently moved to London in search for refuge from the transphobia she experienced in her native country. As it happened, Ville was working on her first set of beats and MR 28GRAMS decided to stay for a smoke. Returned from the kitchen with cups of tea, Ville found him freestyling on her productions and pressed record. Soon they’d completed a collection of emotive, gloomy and raw experimental music.

Streams of the unconscious, Ville Valoton presents MR 28GRAMS: 28 GRAMS IN A JAR (FREESTYLES) reflects upon a collapsing contemporary society. MR 28GRAMS’ freestyled vocals are street prophecies latent with anarchist political satire. They are the lived experiences of an enlightened, battle-scarred black man with a massive heart: a heart that mirrors an ailing society.
