Love the detective intro. Perfectly atmospheric. :)

I honestly can't pick my favorite... between the rap moments, and the story-telling ones. It's all brilliant. Haha. :D

Seriously... one of your best (IMHO)... and that's saying something.

real fresh, production has that funky paul's boutique / amerikkka's most wanted vibe!

you and California have a great vibe and are a cool combination of styles, this is dope!

so damn gritty and mad funky got that old school head nod action

Still love this track🔥🥷🏻🤘🏻

Crow No. Two

1.
It must be an autumn day
There’s a clearing in the forest
The background suggests a hilly landscape
It might be early in the morning yet
I’d say it’s before nine, number two 
Is the one that gives a knowing smile
Not unlikely that, uninvolved politicians do…

At least it knows the secret about 
How the pink helium horse was torn apart
Maybe treason was involved
Or they were curiously looking for a heart

It’s the crows ! It’s the crows !
It’s the crows ! It’s the crows !

2.
Crow number two is the one in the middle of the crime scene
It is slightly in the foreground 
Compared to its two conspecifics, 
Which we may come back to later,
It’s the one that looks directly into your eyes
Even more, it seems to know something about you,
About you…

At least it knows the secret about 
How the pink helium horse was torn apart
Maybe treason was involved
Or they were looking curiously for a heart

It’s the crows ! It’s the crows !
It’s the crows ! It’s the crows !

3.
Its gaze is very slightly from below, 
We can see its right side 
And it seems to observe the observers directly, 
I mean it looks directly into your eyes
It’s the one that lurks straight into your brain 
That could be very embarassing for you and cause 
A lot of shame

At least it knows the secret about 
How the pink helium horse was torn apart
Maybe treason was involved
Or were they looking curiously for a heart ?

It’s the crows ! It’s the crows !
Tell me please, what did they do?
It’s the crows ! It’s the crows !
Finally i made my clue:
It’s the crow, it’s the crow !
It is the crow number two…

Life & The Local 

We can talk the same old shite for many hours
Our I could buy you some more petrol station flowers
Tell you that I’m sorry 
Then do the same shit tomorrow 
Our except it for what it is
And give up on the big fat quiz
We can walk down to the local
Join in the banter and get social 
Because that’s more fun 
If you wanna be my number 1

Life and the local


Glad to see you made the right decision 
And you kinda catching on to my vision 
Oh life is for living so now you gotta start giving 
I’m gonna get the first round in
And this were we begin 
To paper over all the crack’s 
And make sure it gonna last 
Well at least to the end of this session 
Don’t ask me another question 
Yes that’s my best mate Tommy 
And yes I find him rather funny 
I don’t think he meant to offend 
Oh the coats on is this the end

Life And The Local ~ Conscience Of Kings

dans un monde où l'abusé défend son agresseur, l'opprimé vénère son oppresseur, on ne peut que rire hystériquement et pleurer... en même temps.

Adieu Ma Belle Amie Altérée

Light In The Dark (Libby’s Dub)

Cowboy poets spare not
Their words nor their horses
As they follow the herds
And plot their courses
To Underworld.
Take the day but fail to hold
The night that falls and runs
To Underworld.
Guttersnipes
And pesky sprites
Head the procession
To Underworld.

Absolutely thrilled to be working once again with my good friend, the awesome Audiobake (https://soundcloud.com/audiobake) on our second collab - Crows.
My original idea of crows & Japanese taiko drums has been transformed, thanks to the master of percussion & sfx. 
This guy is just amazing to work with ♥

Thank you for listening ♥

MAKE ME SMILE (Come Up And See Me)
written by Steve Harley in 1975

You've done it all, you've broken every code
And pulled the rebel to the floor
You spoiled the game, no matter what you say
For only metal, what a bore

Blue eyes, blue eyes
How can you tell so many lies ?

Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild

There's nothing left, all gone and run away
Maybe you'll tarry for a while
It's just a test, a game for us to play
Win or lose, it's hard to smile

Resist, resist
It's from yourself you have to hide, oh

Come up and see me, to make a-me smile, oh
Or do what you want, run on wild

There ain't no more, you've taken everything
From my belief in Mother Earth
Can you ignore my faith in everything ?
'Cause I know what faith is and what it's worth

Away, away
And don't say maybe you'll try, oh oh oh

To come up and see me to make a-me smile
Or do what you want, just run on wild

Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild

Come up and see me, make me smile
Or do what you want, running wild
