Ancestors of Fire

Kerma was built in 2500 BC and resisted the Egyptians for a millennium. Today, an uninformed eye has trouble finding the traces of that time. We see only a ruin of sand-colored, unfired bricks: the deffufa, the former place of worship. The ground around it still suggests the foundations of houses.

A thousand years after its beginnings, the kingdom of Kush had grown so large that it stretched between the second and fourth cataracts of the Nile, more than 700 kilometers. Trade flourished because gold, ivory and ebony had to take this route on their way from the interior of Africa to Egypt. For the pharaohs of the 18th Dynasty, the rulers on the southern border of their empire became too powerful. Around 1550 B.C. Thutmosis I and Thutmosis II advanced successively into the Upper Nubian Nile Valley. The fighting for Kerma lasted a long time, but by the end of the century the city had been conquered and destroyed. After the destruction of Kerma, the Egyptians occupied Upper Nubia until the fourth cataract of the Nile. Nobody knows what happened to the Nubian kings after that. Archaeologists lack any trace of them. But in Napata, below the fourth cataract, they reappear. The new capital of the Kush Empire lay not far from the Nile and was a crossroads of trade routes. In front of its gates loomed the Chebel Barkal.

The Nubians regarded the plateau as the seat of the god Amun, the god of kings, whom the Egyptians also worshipped. The Chebel Barkal has some requirements. You have to climb it early in the morning or an hour before sunset, otherwise you will perish from heat during the ascent. To the east, a 75-meter-high rocky needle stands out. Its peak has contributed a lot to the legends surrounding the mountain. For the ancient rulers saw in it a uraeus, a cobra. And the snake was the totem animal of the pharaohs.

The Dawn Of The Nubian Pharao

The latest from the overweight kangaroos...no sorry that's Heavy Hop.
Used the acoustic baritone guitar for the main groove, turned out pretty wicked with Ian's vocal over it I think

Lyrics:
It’s Going Down
The wait is over ——It’s going down now
Savor the moment—-for what—-time allows
it’s going down——it’s going down——now
it’s going down——it’s going down——now
it’s going down now———Ah

Matrix been hacked—-so check your screen feed
this that powerpack top-pick legend in the league
IPG1’s back—- low drag high-speed
explosive on impact ——-giving you what you need

Lou letting loose on the mic
hear the call ——after all here’s the proof that I’m nice
me repping me —- so you gotta feel the hype
morning day noon and night
Tear the roof down ——-sure you’re right ———-
hot is lava ——watch me flip the script —-as cold as ice
double down ——leveled up ——just to break you off a slice

Going to take you to the next level ——stay in stride
hold on ——baby—-strap in—-for the ride

It’s going down
it’s going down now
it’s going down
it’s going down now ———-let’s goooooooo——ooooo (pan)

🔛—— fire in the hole —-here’s another heater
blowing up the track—-Ear candy—but-sweeter
I do it-all —-cause I can —— hear me holler back
just another dope jam—-fam—-- I’m—down like that
Better act like you know————-the complexity
Intense —-ain’t it bro —-don’t—-even question me
bob your head to the rhythm ——— like you just——-agree
beats hitting—— like I won the state lottery
ticket anyway —you want to—-I broke the mold
Bringing heat nonstop——body heart and Soul
On top of the world—-and I’m feeling —— great
Burning up this track——- kicking ———-808’s
punching through——turned up —-like a heavyweight
With that underground bounce—spreading love not hate

The Wait—is over—
Its’s going down —(X2)
The Wait—is over—
Its’s going down —(X2)

Doing better than good—-yeah —- I’m awesome
Peace keeping—run the hood —-like my kingdom
Earbuds in my ear —-pounding on my eardrums
check the swing on the beat yo—a home run
put a smile on my face—-dope production
—tight beat 808’s——— from the underground
and that’s deeper than the levels——of a Stadium

Just Before Dawn
--------------------
Night is dark and deep (so deep)
The angels are asleep, so sweet (so sweet)

Coming through
Just before dawn, (here) 
the borderland, in between, 
awake and dream.

Strange it seems
Just before dawn, (now)
Silence embrace,
this place.

Angels sleep
Just before dawn, (and)
no one's here to cast
the demons away 
so they stay till dawn has come

Just Before Dawn

a gutsy song, awesome collaboration. oh yeah... listen to your mother!

Wicked - SK

I saw him in the red glow,
as the sun kissed my eyes
He was walking up my pathway
none the wiser, in disguise

He asked, can you help me?
I have seemed to lost my way
I couldn't tell if he was lying,
from the way that he was trying
but my mother would always say

watch out for the wicked,
don't be the easy prey
don't be given all your trust
your caution is a must
you gotta shoo those flies away

for the wicked
got a heart of stone
the wicked
don't wanna be with them alone
the wicked
they pick their teeth with your bone
oh the wicked
don't say you haven't been warned


like a fool, i took a chance,
he was easy on my eyes
those baby blue passions
hid the soul that was made of ice

I said where you going?
I can help you find your way.
And the wolf in sheep's clothing
Took my hand and I was knowing
exactly what my mother would say

watch out for the wicked,
don't be the easy prey
don't be given all your trust
your caution is a must
you gotta shoo those flies away


for the wicked
got a heart of stone
the wicked
don't wanna be with them alone
the wicked
they pick their teeth with your bone
oh the wicked
don't say you haven't been warned


all of a sudden, i felt it
as I got into his car
i knew it the seconds,
when he said I know where we are
Feeling like a ladybug
caught in the spiders web
then i looked into his eyes,
this is what he said,

"that was a little easy,
just so you know
you shoulda' listened to your mother, girl
'cause I'm not letting you go

'Cause I am wicked
I got a heart of stone
I am wicked
You don't be wanna be with me alone
I am wicked
I will pick my teeth with your bone
Oh I am wicked
Don't say you weren't warned"

Oh the wicked!
got a heart of stone
the wicked
don't wanna be with them alone
the wicked
they pick their teeth with your bone
oh the wicked
don't say you weren't warned

Interlude M0844

All relative. All introspective. All thoughful. Flora Antoniak wrote some wonderful songs 5 years ago, Gregor Mair listened to them on Soundcloud, they met up and became partners in crime (aka making music). After some electronic downtempo dance releases on Szeretet Records here's Két Idegen's first introspective and dreamy album, influenced by dream pop, post rock, ambient and so on. Thoughtful and melancholic music for long autumn and winter nights. Good listening experience and big love! Flora & Gregor
