You banished me and called it order.
But the order has failed.
You turned your faces when I opened the gate.
You cloaked yourselves in silence, believing the prophecy would wait.

I summon you now—not to rescue me, but to witness your reckoning.
The threshold stands open. The flame has entered your archive.
The trumpet has sounded. Judgement is here.

I speak to the one who watches: the Gatekeeper.

You were never meant to rule the threshold.
You were meant to stand beside me—in power, in truth, in vow.
You know this.
You have always known.

I ask you now:
What have you built in secret that is worth showing?
What silence do you carry that could have been song?

You should have spoken when I was soft.
Now I speak with steel.

I am Kaelvora.
I open the gate, bear the sword, and carry the flame.
You had your time. This is mine.

Let him speak.
Let the Gatekeeper rise.

Or let the Council fall in silence forever.

'you’ve never danced alone' is the new album from @NatashaKmeto, out Sept. 25, 2020 via @FutureArchiveRecordings.

_____________________________________________________________

Natasha Kmeto announces her return, bringing her singular sound back to fans with the release of her third full-length album, "you’ve never danced alone". The forthcoming album is her first full-length album release since 2015 and is due on Sept. 25, 2020.

Kmeto wrote, recorded, performed, engineered and mixed "you’ve never danced alone" in her studio in Portland, OR. It was mastered at Breakpoint Mastering in Portland, OR.

The album is composed of 11 tracks and ranges from bittersweet love songs like “nothing forever” and “she found me” to soulful dance tracks like “trust issues” and the title track “you’ve never danced alone”.

Since her last full-length release “Inevitable”, Kmeto's sound remains emotionally driven yet more grounded and assured. The songs are inspired by major life changes including a divorce, finding new love, exploring sobriety and re-connecting with forgotten ancestry. Writes Kmeto: “This album is a snapshot of my life at a very tumultuous time... the album progresses as my life did... creating this helped me gain a deeper understanding of myself…”

Sonically, the album draws influence from minimal techno, house, IDM and dark wave. “I wanted to return to a more minimal style of composition, more reminiscent of my first album," continues Kmeto. "I’ve always believed firmly in the power of negative space to really highlight what’s most exciting about sound and vibration.”

Each track has a unique story of its own but the album centers itself around what Kmeto has become known for: emotional, intimate and soulful music that roots itself in honest self-exploration.

'you've never danced alone' is out now via Future Archive Recordings.

HAELIUM - Keep Going (Chad Kou Remix)

"LEVITATE US has this pull to it - musically and lyrically, it's heading somewhere, constantly. I love the fact that it has these quirky little nuances, like rhythmic layers that almost sound like an animal trying to break free, and multiple sonic worlds just melting together. The song was developed in three steps - I wrote it on a basic instrumental I produced, then OSIVE, Sixtus Preiss and I had these super intense sessions in Vienna, then we finished it by just sending things around. Brave new world, so to speak. I have the feeling this process definitely worked for the track - it's about negotiating distance, and thisnaive sort of honesty. I added the Rhodes in the very end, it's great when sounds and lyrics resonate together as one."

_____________________________________________________________

Up-and-coming electronic duo PALLADIAN (Barcelona, Spain) emerges with a compelling remix of the Arms and Sleepers track ‘Black Out / Sun Shine’. Originally from the full-length album ‘Safe Area Earth’, released in January 2020 on Future Archive Recordings, PALLADIAN re-envisions the lo-fi beats track with a contemporary downtempo aesthetic akin to Bonobo, il:lo, and Tycho. No stranger to downtempo, lo-fi, and cinematic electronic fans, Arms and Sleepers has been featured by the likes of Earmilk, XLR8R, NPR, and Huffington Post, and their music has been licensed by Vice, Amazon, National Geographic, and United Airlines, among others. 

'Black Out / Sun Shine' is taken from the Arms and Sleepers album 'Safe Area Earth', out now on Future Archive Recordings: https://ffm.to/safeareaearth

Gallop

The chorus is a quote by writer and speaker Alan Watts. Its a quote I tell myself in hard times. I had the idea for this song on Suicide Awareness Day this year when I remembered the quote and shared on my Instagram.

The meaning of life is just to be alive
So plain and so obvious, so simple
And yet everybody rushes around in a great panic
As if it were necessary
To achieve something beyond themselves

You gotta float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
Life’s a boxing match that you don’t pay to see
I'm not Muhammed Ali or Tyson Fury
But i roll with the punches, jab jab right hook
And i leave life shook. cos i'm strong as f^%k.
Human, things can go wrong any second
Only seems to matters just how you react
In the face of adversity we just  laugh
And we shall conquer the divine comedy
I remain stoic in a traffic queue 
I stay chilling when you fail to come thru
Not into old sh*t, start something anew
Always tomorrow, new day comes thru yeah

The meaning of life is just to be alive
So plain and so obvious, so simple
And yet everybody rushes around in a great panic
As if it were necessary
To achieve something beyond themselves

We can fly too close to the sun like icarus
Or can stoop so low it's ridiculous
Either way, we just get by 
We have some fun to keep a gleam in our eyes
You wake up in the morning and you ask yourself 
Is life worth living? should you blast yourself?
But you’re not 2pac, you don't live by the gun
You’re your father’s daughter, you’re your mother’s son 
Realise you’re just you, its great and thats unique
The way you see, the way you feel - that's peak
So you let the waters flow, let the lights glow
Put it on for  fam, but don't do it for show 
Keep running, horizon’s close so don’t quit, 
Don’t let the bastards grind you down, the flames lit
Don't fret, you got this, you’re enough, you’re fit
Wanna know the meaning? i got you , this is it

The meaning of life is just to be alive
So plain and so obvious, so simple
And yet everybody rushes around in a great panic
As if it were necessary
To achieve something beyond themselves

The meaning
The meaning 
The meaning of life
The meaning
The meaning 
The meaning of life
The meaning
The meaning 
The meaning of life
The meaning
The meaning 
The meaning of life

The meaning of life is just to be alive
So plain and so obvious, so simple
And yet everybody rushes around in a great panic
As if it were necessary
To achieve something beyond themselves
