Rafael - A Problem

no blood pressure, im coming home shaking
nothing feels safe here, im coming home baby
too fast lately, getting home early
no one will save me

my wheels are burning 
i’m going on my own
nothing shall disturb me
only victory alone 

my soul is one fire
shining the most
i grow with my desire for a golden coast
gasoline is floating in my veins 
and bold decision is my name

Semper Primus ll

Lyrics:
Born a hero a moonless night
destroyed and ignored lost heart in a fight
did not complain was healthy and sane
maintained his game
covered in shame
a mind of solid rock laughing with guilt
a fine round curve
yet another soul thrilled
trembling forward assembling disorder
menacing adrenalin beating anything

a conqueror
getting stronger
living with honour
in a bright new order

money and power
the man of the hour
a villain to cowards so take your cover
faster than a shadow aiming the arrow
empires shaking whispering raging

seizing victory gainning glory
semper primus, tandem mortem

bullseye 
not fragile 
not afraid 
not shy

seizing victory gainning glory
semper primus, tandem mortem

Tandem Mortem ll

Lyrics:
rome is dancing
for lonely hearts
standing on the shoulders 
of decades torn apart
getting along
strolling the streets
pretty sweet
pretty neat
make them a deal
you’re runner up
ignore how you feel
sweet boy
forget your dream
no joy
just failure scream, failure scream

rome is dancing for lonely hearts

substance through rituals
won’t make you exceptional
fly like a pigeon
deny your ambition

rome is dancing for lonely hearts


Tandem Mortem l

lyrics:

for tonight
all is desired
in the stillness
life is delight

on the shores 
the sea roares
on the countryside 
life is delight 
in the sunlight 
we fight 

i tell you i promise you we fight 

for tonight 
all is required 
composure
force in motion
on the shore
oh the sea roar
on the countryside 
leave all behind 
in the sunlight 
we fight 

i tell you i promise you we fight 

for tonight 
show me your king 
and i will show you an army 
it's evening desire increasing it's binding
whatever you do lets leave us two 
whatever you decide never hide never hide
a yell through the heat men are wolves the kill and eat 
leave us celebrating or with defeat 
a yell through the night that never gets dark
cause afraid we 
never get this far 
afraid we 
never get this far

Les Particules - Original Soundtrack - Particles

R. Elizabeth is the recording name of London-based artist and academic Rachael Finney. Every And All We Voyage On is her
solo recording project’s second full length and is a focused distillation of her practice in sound art and her knack for pop
minimalism. It follows a long sold out release on Where To Now? Records and a prolonged period in which she concentrated
on artist residencies exploring her interest in recorded sound and voice. Immediate and natural, Every And All We Voyage On
manages to sound joyful while tackling complex themes, handling everything with an improvisatory touch. The songs are full of
air and light; infectious, melodic and off-the-cuff.
Recorded using a single 80s Casio keyboard, reel-to-reel tape manipulation, piano and vocal, Finney’s practice with R. Elizabeth
belies a studious attention to detail. Her academic work is often focused on analysing sounds – particularly voice and language –
divorced from meaning and R. Elizabeth challenges the listener with overtly emotional tropes: sweeping portmento lap-steel
guitar keyboard tones on Back From Ten suggest a nostalgic melancholy when it intersects with the narrator closing her eyes,
realising she has nothing left to give. The lilting vocal cloaked in reverb is disarming, with an almost child-like surrender to the
undertow of the song. On Tragedy And Trade there’s a rough grace to the mixing with visceral, manipulated tape sounding like
the artists’ hands are literally in the speakers wrenching the melodies in mid-air. When it intersects with chants about the “gaps
and the silences” it has an eerie, hauntological effect. R. Elizabeth is constantly playing with sound and song: a Wonderland of
perceived emotion, the listener’s perception of what they’re hearing constantly in flux, it’s deceptively simple and deserving of
repetitive listening.
Cut Piano opens the album and introduces a documentary-feel which the album upholds through-out. It’s the sound of the artist
mangling a tape of her own piano recording, twisting it out of shape and suggesting a bend in reality. We’re listening to the artist
becoming a ghost in her own machine, a 3rd or 4th generation copy of an emotion rendered a long time ago, chilling and playful at
the same time. An Image Is Different bursts out of this with a sunny Casiotone beat, a melodic contrast that also introduces
Finney’s vocal. It flitters between a gorgeous repetitive melody ruminating about the nature of reality and a seemingly careless,
conversational tone. The effect is joyful, but you don’t really know why. The lyrics instruct someone (you? The artist?) to “go
outside and break someone’s neck, make it feel so real” before ending with R. Elizabeth nonchalantly stating “I dunno, to be
honest I don’t really care” as if on the phone to someone they’re bored with. It would be jarring if it wasn’t so catchy and uplifting.
The title track is a slow-tempo meditation with droning synths providing the background to slow, dragging tape sounds and
grounding, just-out-of-focus vocals bunkering down in the mix. The methodology suggests the work of Broadcast: there’s a
loping bassline that propels the track forward but the duet/duel between Finney’s haunted vocal and the soloing tape warble
provides aural snakes for the listener’s ear to follow.

R. Elizabeth - SPIRITUAL TO SYMPHONY (from Every And All We Voyage On)

Nightlife

we’re walking home hand in hand
nightlife’s no mans land
we left joy and vague sadness
left champagne and madness
remove my heart of stone 
give me one of flesh 
let me take you home 
ease the pain alone

and to war
fighting on endless shores
blue blood in our veins
were spilled and filled 
with modern pain
but i want an immortal name
be free be blessed be caressed
by a holy hand
leave destiny
in command

build a sky of silver
a ground of iron
but please deliver
a world of ours
where we’re alone with our souls

with the ecstasy
with the destiny 
let me into your heart 
a call to arms 
this night is torn apart

with our enemies
and our secrecies
let me into your heart
a call to arms 
this night is torn apart

we’re walking home hand in hand
give me daylight if you can 
leave joy leave sadness
euphoria, god bless this
and remove my
heart of stone 
give me one of flesh
let me take you home 
ease the pain alone
and to war
fighting on endless shores
blue blood in the veins
were spilled and filled 
with modern pain
but i want an immortal name

but we can therefore we are
its not mistakes that took os far
it’s not death 
but die sacrifice entertain
