DigitalRacket 2016 Ep 1

***

I'm a human being 
not a machine
I eventually will tire
of this silly maze 
I've been walking through
so cleverly disguised
As a pretty house
as a handsome man
With his hand moving 
up my thigh
A college degree
a job with salary
That'll keep me 
from the thing 
I ought'a know
That you ought'a know

It's a shame about this mud
This money, money rut
What if love just ain't enough?
This money, money rut

It's not unusual 
to be curious 
About the meaning 
of your life
When you lay in bed
and you toss and turn
Constantly wonder why
Why the world is
Wet and beautiful
but you're all 
dried up inside
When you fall asleep
only in your dreams
Is it possible to cry
It's not unusual
to dream of waterfalls 
of oceans ripped
from the sky
Cause they quench your thirst
And they fill your soul 
Like a burning, pink sunrise
And then all is calm 
In your little boat
Float into the horizon
You float on and on and on...

***

There is a constant pull between two very different worlds. This song is about feeling stuck somewhere in the middle, dealing with the frustrations of money while maintaining an awareness of the fact that we are privileged to even be conscious of the choices. In the end, passion and the desire to lead a meaningful life prevail. It’s all about trusting your intuition and going through a lot shit to get where you want to be, and getting to know yourself in the process.

"I Dream and the World Trembles" by High School Sweetheart

Everybody dreams
but not everyone can bring that heat.
Me? I bring weight underneath my teeth.
See? Your boys shake when I walk up the street.

I never buy my beats.
Me and my peoples keep providin'.
Your shit's sick, but I'm a deadly virus.
Can't you see? I wrote that shit while I was asleep...

And everyone competes,
but not everyone can triumph.
You're just a rat testing luck with a lion.
Fuck with me, you'll end up in a mortuary.

And I'mma tell ya,
"Hold up! Don't go there!
'cuz I might just get too big and explode there.
It ain't a fear of fame or poverty inside of me,
inside of me is a side that I'm afraid to see..."

Every time I dream
the world trembles underneath my feet.
Breathe a fire hotter than a dragon could keep.
You crave it like the blind crave to see.

It happens naturally,
you'd love a chance to even try it.
I'm breaking out like a window in a riot. Best retreat. 
Abuse you like the rich do the meek.

And I'mma tell ya,
"Hold up! Don't go there!
'cuz I might just get too big and explode there.
It ain't a fear of fame or poverty inside of me,
inside of me is a side that I'm afraid to see..."

Available on LP, CD, cassette, and digital formats

“I HAD TO WORK, I HAD TO PAY. BUT THEN I FOUND, A NEW DRIVEWAY”
 
Rolling out of LA with wind in their hair and sweat in the synths, ready to set the skate parks on fire come Cobra Man's Andy Harry and Sarah Rayne. When the two crossed paths, their aim was to push their sound past the point of being comfortable. “Instead of filtering out the ideas some people might consider cheesy or too catchy we wanted to own them and go with it,” explains Andy. “We've carved out a little space for ourselves to embrace whatever fun stuff we want. There was a process between Sarah and I about choosing vibes and pacing, so in a sense the whole thing was written in different characters but under the umbrella of our personalities.”

It's a lo-fo punk journey through bastardized arpeggiated italo disco for the Thrasher generation, you'll hear that in tracks like "Magic Hour". Whereas "Weekend Special" conjures up a pixilated streets of rage style call to arms, busting your way through the jocks with the Skatt Bros blasting in your headphones. "Lazyman" turns the guitars up to 11 and lays on the thick Goner sound we all know and love, but never strays from the disco and punk infused soul of Cobra Man.

The debut album is inspired by and written for The Worble Collective and skateboarding videos, with bass lines being laid down on a battered old 80's Diamond bass, soaring synth melodies, Daft Punk strings and euphoric vocal hooks. It's rammed with influence ranging from Sister Sledge to Devo, Stereolab to Black Moth Super Rainbow, Ariel Pink to William Onyearbor, ELO to The Kinks.

New Driveway Soundtrack pushes across genres as frequently as it does environments. This infectious neon celebration will surely freshen your spirits and loosen your hips, satisfying your innate need for classic innovation and fun...
