Saucool wie immer:)! Ich finde den Text und Vocals von Anna sensationell, geile performance!

of course i was sooooo blown away by the intro....

real fresh throbbing electronic bass and dark grimy city vibe, love the spoken work and awesome layers of textures, real fresh creative collaborative work!

Bitzone: Hello This is Bitzone: Thanks for making The Shrike Pt. 2 with us!

Five vocalists and the question of how they feel about the region in which they live, while they write their lines.
Plus a guitarist, bass, synths and drums and a bit of mixing.
Sounds simple, it is from the idea, but the time until such a project is really finished passes quickly ... from the beginning to the completion it took almost half a year. 
Now I am happy to have brought everything to a good end.

Many thanks to all involved for the commitment and friendship. 
Have fun listening - yours bitzone

Stoney

it doesn't matter if I tell you which sky I'm from

Couch 

Time often goes real slow
When the vitamin D starts to feel real low
From January to May 
Each meal got dough 
Cause the rain still flows  
As I stay in doors 
And my melanin foregoes any hope that it shows
In the summertime 
I’m just sitting and waiting 
Till we’ll get to grow
Sprout my head out and reveal from below
Hello this is Portland

Oven Fresh The Chef

From the mountains to the valleys from the lows to the peaks.
From the loudest to the calloused to your soul it will speak.
From the crowds to the alleys and we roll with the heat.
Never doubt it, grab the chalice and a bowl we will seek.

It's a festival of music. Keep your ear to the streets.
The sunsets are beautiful. It's almost like a dream.
The smokes in the air. Got 'em feeling my aroma.
I'm just another stoner kid here from Arizona. 

Stoney 

I am from the sky
I like to be high
& smile
I live, you should try
it's a real good time
it doesn't matter if I tell you what town I'm from
it doesn't matter if I tell you which place I'm from

Peter

I sit back and burn
think about past adventures
lessons that I learned
where my future may venture
I just let life do what it do
because no matter what I do
that's what it's gonna do
no need to let the stress level rise
I'd rather write raps wit the red chinky eyes
windows down as we ride
Atlanta representative that's where I write my rhymes

Lady Of Fire Poetry

Seattle is still a great place.There are a lot of people with
big heart here. It's still so soulful. People enjoy the artists and musicians.
And the real raw energy that lives here. It brings people together.
Not to mention its natural green beauty and oh yeah I forgot, the rain.

Stoney

I am from the sky
I like to be high
& smile
I live, you should try
it's a real good time
it doesn't matter if I tell you which place I'm from

I am from that place 
one more star in space
I feel pluto's pain
I live, you should try
it's a real good time
it doesn't matter if I tell you which place I'm from

Hi Guys:), another track with the cello inspired by the artwork from Banksy. I love his works and when I saw this picture for the first time, I imagined how it would be if one would follow the balloon. If you're unfamiliar with his works, than have a look, its worthwhile:)

Hope you enjoy:)!

• May She Endure Forever

forever doesn't ever measure well....

take my eyes and let her see
give me her back now but keep my knees
and let her sleep so peacefully

may she endure forever more
she is the cure, more potent pure

take my eyes and let her see

may she endure forever more
she is the cure, more potent pure

take my dimes and mix her tea
grow gardens just to fight crime and disease
and let me live a thousand dreams

may she endure forever more
she is the cure, more potent pure

take my dimes and mix her tea

may she endure forever more
she is the cure, more potent pure

forever doesn't ever measure well....

• Mole
I'm high yet underground
the smoke's just pouring out
you thought you'd kill me, how?!
I tunnel inside out

down under, I'm thunder
I know what love's about
the devastating hating cloud

why won't you dig me out
why does this tunnel cave in
what is it all about
why am I destined to live

inside, I'm all about
I smoke and hug it out
it heals upon my brow
I'm loving underground

down under I'm thunder
the stars are the wonder
I give my body out
the penetrating agent now

why won't you dig me out
why does this tunnel cave in
what is it all about
why am I destined to live

oh, follow me in
if you can
slow, Unearthly grin
medicine
Zoned, just a Bit
music man
ode to happenstance
we begin


Mole

Il est une vie, terrible, horrible
Où chaque seconde, plus moribonde
Ressasse l'instant, présent, absent
Du sombre monde.
Notre valet, sage et dévoué
Proposa son aide, humble remède
Pour chasser l'ennui, peindre la nuit
La porte cède.

Immobilisme et mouvement
Dans un terrible acharnement
S'affrontent avec fracas
Se dérobent devant moi.
Ils mélangent leurs humeurs
Et échangent leurs couleurs
Comme Chromosome et Datura
L'un trône dans de beaux draps
Attend ses proies perfidement
Et les piège en brillant.
Et puis l'autre valet
Toujours voulant aider
Se fraye un chemin
Parmi de cruelles mains
Écrit une symphonie
L'orchestre de la vie.

Qui a gagné, gloire et trophée
Un riche lendemain, sombre dessein
Et qui a perdu, déçu, vaincu
Un jeu en vain.
Devrais-je rester un prisonnier
Détacher mes bras, vil apparat
Nouer des ficelles, couper mes ailes
Pourquoi ?

Des loups-garous, des araignées
Et créatures endiablées
Leurs yeux qui brillent dans le noir
Chuchotent les ombres et les cauchemards.
Démystifie l'impondérable
Jusqu'à compter les grains de sable
Amène à lui l'étrange idée
D'avoir pu se tromper
Se rappelle de la chance
D'être entré dans la danse.
Et puis, l'autre valet
Qu'on avait oublié
Des souvenirs apporte
Cachés derrière la porte
Un monde de plaisirs
Le pire est à venir.

Qui aurait cru, souvenir déchu
Cette vision de rêve, ultime trêve
Afin d'oublier, se réveiller
Le vent se lève.
Il est une vie, terrible, possible
Remplie d'imprévu, inattendu
Où trône l'étrange, même le monde change
N'en parlons plus…

*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!

*Freedoom*

everybody says, "I'm goin' up in a minute"
I said listen now, don't tell me how
I know, I've been in it, I get it
I've been down and I've been clowned
I'm now pessimistic, so save it
shout out loud, pass it 'round
and mind my own bidness, listen

all I'm saying is if you like freedom
you're with me, I said,
tell me how the world's without
what makes us so different

and I step 'cause your freedom
ain't really so free, to me
and I sweat 'cause your money
is holier greed, in green

tell them why you don't want everybody
to see it, I see, everything is peachy-keen
without us a witness, I get it
reson why we see with eyes
can I get a witness, I'm bitchin'
reason why we still have sky
is not from one free nation
nope

I accept that you're freedom
ain't my cup o' tea to drink
and I bet if you try but a swallow,
you'll see, I think

reason why we still have sky
is not from one free nation
nope

and I step 'cause your freedom
ain't really so free to me
and I sweat 'cause your money
is holier greed, in green

I accept that you're freedom
ain't my cup o' tea to drink
and I bet if you try but a swallow,
you'll see, I think

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

I wrote this song in my teenage years with Russian translation of Robert Burns poetry. Some time back I revisited my song and adapted it using original language of the poem.

Behold The Hour, The Boat Arrive (adapted)
Poem by Robert Burns 

Behold the hour, the boat arrive;
You go, the darling of my heart;
Sever’d from you, can I survive,
But Fate has will’d and we must part.

We must part...

I’ll often greet the surging swell,
The distant Isle will often hail:
“Here I took the last farewell;
There, latest mark’d his vanish’d sail.”

We must part...

(spoken) 
Endless and deep shall be my grief;
Not ray of comfort shall I see,
But somehow, I belive
That you will still remember
Remember me...

We must part...

Along the solitary shore,
While flitting sea-gull round me cry,
Across the rolling, dashing roar,
I’ll westward turn my wistful eye...

• it Bit me

oh, it bit me. 

the pain endured
the shame
the hurt

and now I can't feel the pain and 
life's important as a bug

so tell me what do I do when I do what I do
convince me what I do is how I do what I do
the wincing from blue and bruised back to invincible
it bit me and it's teeth have sunk into

eyes and teeth, you scream, you see
the beastly beast

life is a monster, you can believe it
it will sink it's teeth into you
life's a tornado, wind out to weaken
it can most surely destroy you

life is a monster, oh how it bleeds you
deadened by what you've done to it
you can't escape it, oh how it finds you
once found, it will corner you - you're bit!

the pain endured
the shame
the hurt

Life Malfunkshunned.

so tell me what do I do when I do what I do
convince me what I do is how I do what I do
the wincing from blue and bruised back to invincible
it bit me and it's teeth have sunk into

life is a monster, you can believe it
it will sink it's teeth into you
life's a tornado, wind out to weaken
it can most surely destroy you

life is a monster, oh how it bleeds you
deadened by what you've done to it
you can't escape it, oh how it finds you
once found, it will corner you - you're bit!

It bit me

Hi Guys:), this is my first track created with Cubase. It was really a new experience and I love it.
I know only the basics and work here with a lot of free VST. Before I made all my stuff with my Korg m3 without a DAW software but in my collabs it was sometimes difficult to work with.
Hope you enjoy:)!
