The universal has a path to lead,
Just tell it what you really need
and do it again.”

In an increasingly divided world Safetalk’s stunning debut single, ‘Universal’, arrives like an unexpected but much needed radio transmission from the cosmos, the sound of distant galaxies colliding, their spiral arms embracing in an ecstatic pre-ordained dance of birth, death and rebirth.
 
From Paris and Berlin with love, Safetalk marry dreamy psychedelic soul to the entrancing clockwork rhythms of electronica, reaching for the same ‘teenage symphonies to God’ that Brian Wilson once strove for. 
 
Like music appearing from the static of a detuned television the result is suffused with a nimbus like inner light, a soft power that transforms a humble pop song into a hymn of submission to a greater force, of love under will.

Universal

Huge thanks to @iamtenere for this very special interpretation.


---------------------------------------------------------

Back in March Anglo-French trio Safetalk broke radio silence with their debut release, a cosmic hymn to the ’Universal’. Space is a big place but sometimes when you send a transmission out into the stars you get something unexpected in return, and now 2 months later the cosmos has replied with 3 wildly imaginative remixes.
 
First to make contact are Greco-Roman signings JeanGa and George. The duo have already made a name for themselves releasing a stunning debut album this year and their remix, a heady psychedelic brew of analogue squelches and trippy vocals, shows just why so many people have tipped them as ones to watch in 2017.
 
Posthuman, the British duo behind the riotous I Love Acid parties and label, are next to offer their interpretation. Transforming the track into a 10-minute long 98bpm Acid-Trance reworking that gradually unfolds to reveal its secrets and is sure to hypnotise open-minded dance floors.
 
Finally French artist Ténéré takes a more meditative approach with his reworking, delivering an atmospheric take on the track suitable for both late nights in smoky Parisian cellars and early mornings watching new suns rise above alien horizons.

Universal (Single)

Universal (Ténéré Remix)

Released September 15

Having made their debut in March this year with their hymn to the cosmos, ‘Universal’, Anglo-French trio Safetalk return in September with their second transmission, ‘Gold of the Highest’, a light in the darkness celebrating humanity’s potential.

Fusing psychedelic soul to intricate, pulsating electronic rhythms and radiant synths, Safetalk want us to look beyond our weak flesh and, with ‘Gold of the Highest’, open our hearts and minds to the strength we all possess within ourselves.

In an age when our worst instincts are being fed back to ourselves with a passionate intensity ‘Gold of the Highest’ shines like a beacon, an electronic sigil glowing in the darkness, a reminder that even as things fall apart the power is within us to rebuild both our world and our spirits.

Gold of the Highest

Royer takes our single Gold of the Highest and transforms it into the perfect soundtrack to wind down from our summer,a back to work meditation to aid your organisations with serenity as we refocus our to do lists. 

@royeeeer has celebrated releases on LobsterTheremin, Class II and Chicago based heavyweights Argots internationally focused sub label - Tasteful Nudes.

Gold Of The Highest Royer Remix

‘Static’ is the debut EP from Safetalk, aka Berlin based British singer David Harks and Parisian producers Hugues Tonnet & Thomas Desnoyers. Featuring the brand new single, ‘Static’, previous releases ‘Universal’, ‘Gold of the Highest’ and ‘Mimic’ plus a new remix by Parisian producer Royer, the EP sees the band continue to explore the point in space where hypnagogic soul collides with psychedelic electronic music and interstellar RnB-inspired rhythms.

Where the band’s previous releases have offered some respite from the maelstrom of sound and fury that’s engulfed us the past few years, ‘Static’ sees the band confront the injustices of the 21st Century, and the refugee crisis that has swept over Europe, head-on.

In an age when our worst instincts are constantly fed back to ourselves with a passionate intensity, when our societies continue to atomise and fragment Safetalk offer us an alternative, a protest song that demands inclusion, that wants to lift up the nameless and unknown.

Alongside ‘Static’ the EP features the band’s previous singles that saw them tipped by the likes of Clash, Vice’s Creators Platform and the Ransom Note. From the uplifting, transcendental ‘Universal’ through to the mechanical hymn of ‘Mimic’ and ‘G.O.T.H’s ode to human potential, Safetalks fusion of pulsating electronic rhythms, radiant synths and tender vocals combine to create machine music made with heart and soul.

Finally acting as a coda to the EP the band asked their friend, Parisian producer Royer to remix ‘Gold of the Highest’. The result is a stunning ambient reworking that distils the track to a lambent wash of serene synths and provides a perfect meditative ending to the band’s debut EP.

LAYBACK

Safetalk return this 2019 to follow sharply on their debut EP Static - an entry that proved a glorious glimpse into the Safetalk world of deeply inspired electronic avant-pop, the first EP’s finale no less a uniquely video of the single Static shot entirely on the IPhone X released only this past March 2019.

The act have been taking their time to lay the groundwork to become a mainstay in the world of electronica, as slow fashion has become relative in the world of digital music, each track has laid the pathway to resist the tides and breath its own life, the act serves to deliver quality at its own pace.

Safetalks "LAYBACK" reveals the acts rhythmical solace that learns to dance between the otherworldly..organic and electronic elements all combined, to prepare a new journey for us all into fantasy. The songs is lead by a focus on traditional rhythmic sampling, pit against a more classic melodious synthesis, detailed modular instrumentation summons the start of a new era for this Berlin - Parisian act.

Bursting onto the electronic music scene in 2017 with the gloriously optimised songs Universal, Mimic and Gold of the Highest, charged on altruistic connections, the act has served as a nexus of inspirational lyrics and shimmering synthesis that has retained from the very start a core following.

This new instalment serves as an introduction for a series of follow up releases for 2019 - as the act prepares to lead us into a world of warped storytelling for our imaginations, creatures come out to play a nightmarish underworld to dance amongst the living.. to turn our worlds upside down.

The single artwork is produced by band member Thomas Desnoyers it boasts a colour spectrum of inversion our awkward realities, reminding us of the primitive spirits that dance with us, eternally.

Safetalk return this 2019 to follow sharply on their debut EP STATIC - an entry that proved a glorious glimpse into the Safetalk world of deeply inspired avant-pop, Static itself shot entirely on the IPhone X released only this past March 2019 to be premiered at the Apple flagship store on the Champs-Elysees.

I KNOW

I know is the second single for Safetalk in 2019 following up on the curiously composed single Layback self released through their own imprint Listentosafetalk Records, as featured on BBC Introducing and 1 Brighton.FM
The act are determined to walk a path that lead the listener into a world of unease and nightmarish tales, as they examine the darkness that resides in us all, not a pop act by any means. Safetalk are able to take control within a world of detailed sonic sculpture and deep heavy future R N B productions, coupled with a passion for surreal storytelling.

Choosing to no longer shine like a beacon of hope into the digital darkness Safetalk return with I KNOW and ode to the worlds digital information systems, a song that acknowledges the digital age is here with us eternally, no longer as humans but more as avatars, we are able to live forever on the servers & hyperframes of digitised curations. Death is no longer an option...

“In this second age, the archives strong...the world lacks its pages, the server burns the brightest with its morning interfaces, so you and I can just carry on..”


I KNOW lyrics summon to serve as an ode to remind us that we are no longer apart of the systems we have provided we are the nexus and it is us, in life and death. The digital religion has replaced the earth and the soil, cables and coils are the homes we sleep with at night as our imaginations require us to format within the waking hour of the 2 dimensional..

“Where I can go, in this second age..”
To be myself, to be alone, to be found and to be forgiven in digital peace.

Title; Creatures EP

Release Date; WEDNESDAY 13th NOVEMBER 2019
Listentosafetalk Records

Listentosafetalk Records proudly releases the third Installment of Safetalks 2019 trilogy of singles with the curious Creatures.

Following in the footsteps of I Know and Layback - candle lit Creatures refrains from the steeped shimmering productions of its 2019 predecessors.
A smooth pallet of classic french induced drum repetition, our story continues on with Safetalks defiance, honestly embracing the darkness that hides within us all. “Never Gonna Let the Creatures” - an ode to the demands of the neurosis within us - as the hyper channels reach ever further toward the keys of listeners extendedly long fingers deep inside the digital web - always watching, curations curtailed through an ever presence of censorship.
The “Digital dark age is upon us” Safetalk preach and yet Creatures manages to light a candle in the darkness to lead the way, a sombre lament from Safetalk. Somehow seeking refuge to comfort themselves in the shadowed passages of castles long forgotten in the history of time, irreverent rock it is.
Safetalk sound pallet on this single stands to repent, a monastic deliverance
set to acoustic guitars, surreal child like echoes, post psych influences,
and dubbed mysteries plucked through digital bass dysphoria.
One might say a true combination of franco - anglitarian infused pop that
heralds 60s inspiration, elements of Canterbury folk laments darned with an
electro Grecian Domo - Aphrodites Childs...666.

It is with this final offering that we understand that Safetalks aim has been to remind us of our foothold in the passages of time..weakly disenfranchised, bound by screens, unhealthy avatars and restless digestion of notifications are the banquets we feed nightly upon - as are the Creatures that demand our attention.
Safetalk reveal they are no
longer satisfied with raising our spirits holding successful releases including the cosmically Spirit Universal, but remain focused through to the socio politicised offering single Static and beyond.

Who are Safetalk ? - Safetalk is you and only you and you alone.

What do they want ? - To remind you.

Creatures

The year is 2020, the stores have closed, the world's economy is in crisis, all flights have been cancelled and there is a growing concern that a super virus is taking control of the airwaves with two thirds of the global population potentially at risk. A dark story unfolds. Except this is not the tale of a future focused dystopian illustrated novel, it's the present state of a global emergency that is facing the planet right now.

Worldtalk 

We stand apart
A billion eyes
Turning so slowly
Up toward the Sky

In the galaxies creation
In the play we conceive
Just an organism of motion
Voyeurs of discovery

The awesome accelerated survival
Dancing avatars of desire
To dream of acceptance
Through these spirits fibres…

We all so lost on each other
Through the eyes of one another
And the words we discover
The cosmic algorithm we seek

The algorithm 
We Seek..
To Desire..

For in this Communications race
To drive ourselves as one..
Endless unfinished infrastructure 
As we rise with the sun

So alone and left so far away
And I feel you so close..
Will you take me back again…

We used to talk to each other, you and I..

In this Worldtalk,
In the Worldtalk,
Worldtalk
Hear what you say…
In the Worldtalks…
Share the words again…

Video Line…
Come back to me
Video Line…
The frequencies..

In the World Talks 
Hear what you say
In the World Talks
Take me back again…





There is no fool that stands
Between our time
We Wish we all could sail away..
We open up the door Internalise..
Drift Away

Instrumental Break

Worldtalk
Share the love again
In the Worldtalk
I feel you next to me..

Audio Sample Skit

It's Just an Illusion
Of time
Slipping away in between these lines
Were just as confused to the reason why
We are here at all…..
