Lyrics:

Always try to keep up 
Always fall behind 
Belly pains 
And headaches 
Inside you  

Isn’t it quite the same 
And isn’t it such a shame 
Too heavy for the lightness 
But weightless in the rain 
All our words are wasted  

Never fails to fail me 
Never say never 
Loathing phase 
Self-inflicted pain 
I’d never 
Oh, I’d never 

Order

NOTHING - The Dead Are Dumb

This is the first single off Mandy's 'Universe'.

MANDY is the the moniker of Mel and Andy Fung. Their album ‘Universe’,  was written and recorded in the lead up to Mel’s passing from cancer in October 2014, it marks her final profound and beautiful musical statement.

Both MANDY’s members pedigree in the Welsh music scene is well-established, performing with the likes of Derrero, Richard James, Pink Assassin, The MeMeMe’s, No Thee No Ess and many, many more. ‘Universe’ marks a departure both from these previous projects, as well as MANDY’s anarchic approach to music-making itself, demonstrating even greater maturity and songwriting depth. More than this, the album is testament to its creator’s restless creativity. Mel’s close friend, Mared Lenny, says it better than we could:

“The beautiful thing about music making is that it transcends mortality. It outlives us. And for someone with such a distinctive voice and spirit it’s comforting to know she’ll be on record for all time, forever immortal through her incredible creativity”

CASSETTE OUT ON SACRED PHRASES APRIL 22 2016. 
PRE-SALE: http://sacredphrases.com/product/phork-k/

After a kaleidoscopic trail of releases on Orange Milk, Opal Tapes, NNA Tapes, and Noumenal Loom, Phork now brings his latest foray into throbbing, kinetic dance music to the Sacred Phrases family. With 'K,' Neal Reinalda (also known as People’s Higher Order of Royal Kinship) veers his careening, psychotropic grooves into the infinite. Opener "SWiM (OBE1)" is a 15-minute run of Blondes-like pulsing, hitting bliss point after bliss point with complete elegance. The Los Angeles-based producer carves his way deep underground on "Ride p," a subversive set of tectonic low-ends and skittering, blipping textures that emit washes of magma-like heat and aural sediment. B-side opener "Know What Im Sayin'?" maintains a rolling simmer of bass-heavy tones and murmered dementia that plays out like a dubby, dancefloor-ready version musique concrete. Closer "SWiY (OBE2)" returns to the cool, rhythmic hysteria of 'K's' opening moments. Things take a turn for more mechanical, Chris + Cosey or mid era-Cabaret Voltaire, examining tripped-out sets of poppy industrialism that can't help but move its hips in the slightest way.

Gira Music Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95sHC9h5O00

“Gira” (a portuguese word meaning to change or turn around) is Batuk’s third single from their forthcoming debut album 'Musica da Terra' to be released on May 27th 2016, on Teka Recordings. 

Batuk’s latest single, is a hard hitting song of protest, calling for change. Addressing the constant war and fighting in Africa, the song is born of dance floor culture, but not of it’s typical hedonistic nature. Gira is a loud call for change from the youth of Africa. There are currently fifteen African countries involved in war, or are experiencing post-war conflict and tension. The statistics are not only shocking/frightening…the time has come for CHANGE. 

The beautiful music video was submitted to Batuk, by a fan who was touched by the song at a live show, and dug through his trove of documentaries and stock footage to create a powerful montage. 

On the EP, the Gira original version is accompanied by two stunning South African house remixes, one by the Ggom stalwarts, Rudeboyz, and another by prolific Johannesburg producer/DJ Eltonnick.
