Lyrics:

Someday I'll be weightless
I'll be waterfalls and mountain ranges
Someday I won't be afraid to leave this space that we made

I remember what she said, everything is relative
I believe we'll meet again, I believe in everything

And in some way we'll stay
Like fault-lines and I
I don't really mind

Cause now I know this is how it goes
Round and round 'til something blows
You didn't believe me when I told you though
That often in the night I fuss and fight
And find that nothing's right
So I will fold the words and open up my eyes
And I'll look outside more
And I'll talk with strangers 
And I'll tell their stories
And I'll paint their faces 
I'll be everything you want
Everything you need
Just hold onto that thought

Everything you want 
Everything you need
Hold onto that thought

[I remember what she said, everything is relative
I believe we'll meet again, I believe in everything
I believe in animals, mythical and magical
I believe in stupid dreams, angels and Hesperides]

Hesperides

Maybe in Love (Maybe Not)

I Still Love Him

'I don’t have a proper job, I'm a metamodern skank'
Varrick Zed's insouciant introduction sets the tone for 'Very', a taut new assault on the dancefloor from NYC avant-pop miscreants, Strange Flesh.

Taking aim at societal expectations as to how a life ‘ought’ to be lived, ‘Very’ is an anthem for those on their own deliciously precarious path, the soundtrack to beloved but ill-paying employment, affordable decadence, no children, and a healthy disregard for the future. 

Underpinned by a pulsating bassline and minimal electro-funk beat, the track’s wickedly catchy sonic palate is peppered with deconstructed synth hooks and subtle ambient flourishes, which, together with Varrick’s ice cool sprechgesang vocals, turn ‘Very’ into a full-blown pop leviathan. 

While we're feeling nebulous, 'Very' is backed by the darker, galloping strains of 'Sugoku', an accelerated club belter that complements its predecessor very well, before the EP's title track is hacked to pieces and rehewn by Digital Equipment Co. into a dementedly hiccupping new beast.

Last of all, legendary New Zealand DJ Stinky Jim elongates 'Very' into a jawdropping eight minute dub extravaganza, closing out this sizzling EP with aplomb.

For the as-yet-uninitiated, Strange Flesh comprises native New Yorker Varrick Zed, and London expatriate Ed Zed. The duo is based in Brooklyn, where they craft left field pop music out of whatever they find lying around in their apartment and their ravaged minds.

Very

‘Just a Little’ is a collaboration between NI songwriters Rory Nellis & Kris Marsden. Engineered & produced by Kris Marsden in his lo-fi studio, where he’s recording the third Kippysmuse album.
Drums by Stephen Leacock (General Fiasco, Nathan
Connolly).
Mixed & mastered by Phillip Watts d'Alton.
