Lyrics:
Ever since I met you
I feel like I’ve understood
Everything that’s happened this far’s
Happened as it should

I’m not gonna rush you 
Tell you I love you today
I know that it’s better 
With all the stops along the way

Cause you know I have sometimes played the fool
When I thought I could break all the rules

When you say you love me
I will take you at your work
But if that word is broken
From me you will not be heard

Cause you know I have sometimes played the fool
When I thought I could break all the rules

Ever since I met you
I feel like I’ve understood
Everything that’s happened this far’s
Happened as it should

I’m not gonna rush you 
Tell you I love you today
I know that it’s better 
With all the stops along the way

Cause you know I have sometimes played the fool
When I thought I could break all the rules

Years

Inspired by Blade Runner & the TI-84 - this is the instrumental version of a track recorded last year. A slow unraveling. Synth textures and reverb-soaked guitars curling around each other like smoke. Best for driving alone, somewhere between the last gas station and the edge of the simulation. Bass by @zengazer

Visage (Lyrics/Paroles)

J'ai aperçu son visage, mais ce n'était qu'un mirage, 
Comme un reflet dans l'orage, une illusion de passage,
Son regard m’a fait naufrage, dans un monde sans rivage,
Où l’amour n’est qu’un langage, perdu dans le vent sauvage.

Elle danse dans mes pensées, comme une ombre sans visage, 
Chaque nuit je veux l’aimer, mais je n’ai que son mirage,
Un soupir, un doux présage, puis le vide en héritage, 
Je poursuis son doux sillage, prisonnier de son image.

Lyrics: 

The sphere is spinning
For you to see
You’re not winning
Or giving in

Take it off of me
Get it right
Cause this time it’s glowing
Much to bright

It shouldn’t be this way

I’ve been asking myself
In this circumstance
What does this look like to you
If not overdue

Only five of us cared
When the rest of us
And the best of us
What’s going on
We’re going home
Going home

So I say

I’ve been asking myself
In this circumstance
Would you do the same for me
Cause it’s now long overdue

Only five of us cared
When the rest of us
And the best of us
What’s going on
We’re going home
Going home
Going home

Only five of us heard
When the second wave
Came crashing down
Turning upside down
And no one ran
No one ran
No one ran

He's heard

When the second wave
Came crashing down
Turning upside down
Upside down
Upside down

No one ran

When the second wave

No one ran
No one ran

No one ran
No one ran

No one ran
No one ran
No one ran

Slate Horizons

Second Wave

03 Second Wave [Metalogue & Fluff]

"I'm not a good talker, so music becomes my voice." 

I'm an east London producer, song writer, sound designer and vocalist. 'Fluff' is my solo project. (I'm the other half of trip-hop duo www.soundcloud.com/silverstreaks). 

Fluff-music combines traditional songwriting, indie, electronic, goth, ethereal/synth pop and experimental/cinematic sound design into powerful, emotional sound scapes. Manipulated field recordings and audio textures add suggestive sounds to evoke raw and visceral emotions in the listener. 

Influences: 
Indie/art rock, darkwave and the electroclash scene in the mid 00s. 

Discography:

'Down the Rabbit Hole' (Album, 2023).
In stores since 19th September. https://open.spotify.com/album/4Iq21rBQvgXesED9Hv8GEc 
I will be uploading high res tracks here over time.
'Down the Rabbit Hole' is a reflection on our world as it is today. Greedy, destructive, homogenised, selfish and exploitative. But we're resilient creatures. There are some fun, light-hearted tongue-in-cheek stories of adaptation and survival by becoming pretty fabulous.

'Slate Horizons' (Album, 2018) - Collaboration with @metalogue, London producer and cinematic sound designer. fluffling.bandcamp.com/album/slate-horizons
Indie-electronica, industrial, ambient, cinematic and experimental sound design.
A dark, sonic post-apocalyptic nightmare vision, dealing with events of the recent past, present and not so distant future: Social apathy, lethargy and indifference, public obedience, compliance and conformity, social paranoia, genetic mutations, nuclear threat, post apocalypse and human extinction.

'Black Cats and Criminals' (Album, 2015). https://fluffling.bandcamp.com/album/black-cats-and-criminals
A mix of ethereal electro/synth, pop and piano. Exploration of various topics of complicated human emotions.
