Protagoras - Unused Hell Reborn V2 track (UNFINISHED)

Wake up in the morning with a headache
Hit the snooze button, but it don't take
Gotta rush, gotta get dressed, gotta comb my hair
Can't believe I'm stuck in this corporate nightmare (oh, no)

I hate my 9 to 5 job (job)
Sittin' in my cubicle, it feels like a mob
I wanna break free, be who I wanna be
But all I see is endless monotony (ooh-yeah)

9 To 5 Blues

Basstep

Do it all for you

[Verse 1]
Moonlight on our faces
Hand in hand
The night so sweet
Like sugar sand
Ice cream melts
You wipe my smile
My heart sings happy for a while

Tired feet
You lift me high
My worries vanish
In the sky
The rhythm plays
We dance so free
In this moment
It's you and me

[Verse 2]
Whispers soft
Like a gentle breeze
Your touch brings me comfort
Puts my mind at ease
Under the stars
We find our way
With every step
Our love will stay

Nearing a decade old and with a discography reaching deep into double figures across several different labels (Mexican Summer, Burger, Plastic Response Records) David Loca’s work under the Part Time moniker really shouldn’t require any introduction. Nonetheless, the release of what is officially his sixth album, fittingly titled Spell #6, does signal something of a re-birth and provides a compelling entry point for anyone new to Loca’s prolific output.

Whereas previous albums were notable for a charming lo-fi production, Spell #6 takes Part Time uptown. "I describe this album as 'my studio album', because it was entirely re-recorded at my drummer Walter Byer's studio, unlike most of my past releases being bedroom experimental pop recordings." Loca produced the record himself, impressively appropriating a classic 80s pop sound that recalls some of the more grand productions of that era - think Stephen Street’s expressive production on ‘Last Night I Dreamt Somebody Loved Me’, Crowded House and The Church’s widescreen interpolation of Paisley Underground jangle, and there's even traces Gerard McMann’s grandiose ‘Cry Little Sister’. In that sense, the record stands as an outlier in Loca’s catalogue, and in doing so sheds the sometimes limiting trappings of bedroom recording

Though it is Loca’s project, Spell #6 sees him joined by a consistent supporting cast of fellow writers and performers who add a poise and deftness to his vision, most notably Ariel Pink, who makes a guest appearance on lead single, ‘I Can Treat You Better’.

A lead single for its obvious earworm qualities, it also functions as an ideal snapshot of the lyrical themes that run through the entire record: romantic gestures and unrequited love, bad decisions on hot nights/hot decisions on bad nights, and unpinning it all, LA. For this is evidently a West Coast record, like a 2018 take on To Live and Die in LA: expansive, grand, and not a little crazy (in love) from the heat.
