You say you work on weekends
At seven in the morning
You fuck me like an old friend
You say your ex was pretty boring, well me too

When we walk into bodegas
I thank God they’re open late-night
Maybe someday I could date you
We’ll play dress-up and I might need you

And I’ll still pretend that I’m your man
And you’ll never mind me staying out when you’re at home in bed
And it’s the fool who fell for you
No, it’s not me talking, don’t believe a word he says to you
Oh let’s pretend you’ll picture me too

So tell me what you’re into
And I can do you that way
Throw you back against the window
Leave your clothes all in the hallway with your shoes

Show me to your best friends
I’ll wear a brand-new t-shirt
So a better first impression
Is what I leave when it’s all over with you

And I’ll still pretend that I’m your man
And you’ll never mind me staying out when you’re at home in bed
Oh and it’s the fool who fell for you
No, it’s not me talking, don’t believe a word he says to you
Oh let’s pretend you’ll picture me too

Yeah ooh-sha-la-la, ooh-sha-la-la
Ooh-sha-la-la, ooh-sha-la-la
Ooh-sha-la-la, ooh-sha-la-la-ah

So let’s pretend that I’m your man
And you’ll never mind me staying out when you’re at home in bed
Oh and it’s the fool who fell for you
No, it’s not me talking, don’t believe a single word he says to you
Oh let’s pretend you’ll picture me too
Oh let’s pretend you’ll picture me too
Oh let’s pretend you’ll picture me too

LYRICS
Scrolling, watching life wasting mine
Scrolling, my favourite way to pass the time

All I want to do is scroll away with you
Scrolling down the pages, scrolling through the news
Scrolling in the morning, late into the night
Scroll until I die

Walking, looking down I don't see the sky
Talking to my friends with one eye

All I want to do is scroll away with you
Scrolling down the pages, scrolling through the news
Scrolling in the morning, late into the night
Scroll until I die

Scroll until I die
Scroll until I die
Scroll until I die

Dying, looking back on my life
Scrolling

Sean Redmond - Scroll Until I Die

The first single from Madeline Tasquin's new EP of the same name, "Future Telephone" is a lament to modern day (mis)communication and the loss of nuance to pixelation.

Future Telephone

Future Telephone - EP

ORDER NOW

Relationships are hard. These 2 high school sweethearts from Indiana have sonically plotted out a melody drenched tune for how to survive turmoil and uncertainty. "P.D.R" reflects on the duo's journey through the music industry, recent public snub by Hollywood, and overall rocky patch in a weathered relationship.

The song also marks a major milestone for The Bergamot working with world-renowned mixer and producer Matt Wiggins to mix the track (Glass Animals, London Grammar, The Horrors).

"P.D.R." is a forward-looking contemporary interpretation of The Beach Boys "Pet Sounds" stacked harmonies, strung out verb drenched Strats, and thick textured harpsichord and strings to round out this lush production. The hook is emphatic and grabbing with a distant synth hooking your ear at first listen.

The song is based on Playa del Rey, a romantic beach town nestled on the south-western tip of Los Angeles where the couple found themselves in their 312,000 mile old "Unity Car" with the window down and the rain falling on both of them. 

"Life just seemed so confusing at that particular point in time - it was all just hitting us as we sat in silence taking in the swells of the Pacific Ocean on our left and the arriving international flights at LGA over our heads." reflects Hoff. "Those planes lit up like fireballs falling from the sky."

"What were we doing there? Why had we come to L.A.? Our car was on the brink - WE were on the brink" relays Speece. "We put everything we had into that track... and everything WE DIDN'T!"

The song weaves the listener through the idea of "Holding on" in the beginning as being held back, yet reprieves with a optimistic turn by the bridge "With everything uncertain, I think we will be O.K." to bring the track back to a positive light and somehow reign in the dream track to inspire and strike an optimistic tone. 

The guitar swells, the dreamy vocals and harmonies - this piece would be a visual accompaniment to Claude Monet's "Rough Sea". The song attempts to create a sonic seascape of lyrical imagery and instrumental precision. 

PLAYA DEL REY (PDR)
Lyrics Written by Nathaniel Paul © 2017
-
Down on the coastline
Airplanes and street signs
West of the 405
While we were waiting
I wish you'd just say it
Those words 
Tied up in your head

We were hopeless
The windows were open
Watching the planes fly by
The clouds were rolling
The salty air from the ocean
Those lights
Burning up in the sky

I'm worried
About the words you said
About the words you said
About the words you said

I feel like I've waited all my life
Holding on, holding on
Holding on, holding on

I feel like I have waited all my life
Holding on, holding on
Holding on, holding on

We were alone now
When we let our guards down
Taught ourselves to be free
The thin winter moonlight
Our hands held tight
Our lives drift off to sea

I'm worried
About the words you said
About the words you said
About the words you said

I feel like I've waited all my life
Holding on, holding on
Holding on, holding on

With everything uncertain
I think we will be O.K. 

I feel like I've waited all my life
Holding on, holding on
Holding on, holding on

I feel like I've waited all my life
Holding on, holding on
Holding on, holding on

P.D.R.

Lyrics:

[v1]
We made a mess, but I don’t mind
It made sense to be friends for a long time, but
Here we are so what do we do now
Maybe we’re afraid cause we got something to lose now
Good enough, but it looks like we shot it
So if we’ve already given up
Do we stop it?

[v2]
We’ve been in the same cycle for a while
Swimming up against the current and we wonder why we struggle
When we stop saying what we mean when we mean it
Stop having any hope when we know we believe it
And we repeat it ‘til we drop it
If we’re gonna fall apart
Do we stop it?

[bridge]
Stop saying that we weren’t enough
Stop saying that I wasn’t enough
Stop thinking you can call my bluff
Stop thinking that you’re calling my bluff
You’re not cause
I’ve gotten good at getting over you
You gave me plenty of practice
“We can’t be mad about it if we laugh about it”
And you can’t stop laughing

Stop It (Stripped)

Amsterdam-based Pip Blom has shared the second song on her recent AA-side 7”, listen to ‘School’ here. The song follows the recently aired ‘Babies Are A Lie’ with the vinyl now available on Nice Swan Records (Dead Pretties, Queen Zee & The Sasstones).

Since first airing her angst-ridden brand of lo-fi indie last year, Pip Blom hasn’t been one to hang around. Four singles released in quick succession introduced her music to listeners far wider than her native Netherlands, with airplay across the likes of American radio station KCRW, BBC Radio One and 6 Music ensuring songs Pip had simply uploaded to the Internet hit hundreds of thousands of streams.

Are We There Yet? followed, a three-track EP showcasing the 21-year-old musician’s art for subtle, yet effortlessly catchy melodies. Self-recorded, each track across the release occupies a different headspace and is packed with rough-edged charm; whetting the appetite for what may lie in wait for Pip’s debut full-length.

‘School’ and its flipside ‘Babies Are A Lie’ are next in a growing catalogue of notable releases. Warming guitars and string accompaniment throughout highlights ‘Babies…’, which is centred on Pip’s undeniable gift for a standout chorus. On the flip, ‘School’ is a fuzzier, raucous showcasing of her ability writing great, hooky rock songs.

Pip and band are fresh from a recent UK tour, including a sell-out London show at The Sebright Arms, following a EU festival run, including much-talked about appearances at The Great Escape Festival and On Blackheath Festival, amongst others, along with support slots to the likes of Interpol and The Districts.

See Pip on the following dates:

NOVEMBER
29 – Peer Hat, Manchester
30 – Shacklewell Arms, London

DECEMBER
01 – Sticky Mike’s, Brighton

Pip Blom and Band are: Pip Blom, Tender Blom, Camiel Muiser & Casper van der Lans.
