Food Chain feat. Itos Ledesma

This track is a little under produced (completely by choice) to stress the point that the music lies within the, well, music. Also I've been listening to In Utero so the timbre that you hear might have been inspired by that. Probably the first song that I ever write in this genre, hope you enjoy. 

No Filter, Whatsoever

Inamorata soundcloud.m4a

This song I wrote as part of the whole "book music" theme I've been working on. Along with Catch-22 and Seen Jasmine (about Perfume), this new track pays tribute to the author of one of my favorite books right now; Albert Camus, The Stranger. It isn't however strictly adherent  to the book by any means, the song has no real meaning (as most of the songs). It does, however, have some essence of the book it was inspired by and hopefully, ultimately; it will encourage people to read (which would be one of my goals in creating music).

A Little Sadness

(c) Hannah Pira for the picturee

Your house
I’ve been counting days and hours
I've tripped and tumbled in your nights out
"Of all the things that you’re about"
Weak,
I’ve been climbing in your sheets
Nightly walking in your city streets
And all the things that you would keep
She moves in a nervous kind of way
She knew all the different things I’d say
She’s cool in a surreal kind of way
Sounds
Cut your corners go around
Having trouble south of downton
And all the place you have found
Made
I haven’t found a decent way
To piece together what I’d say
There is no topic out of place
She moves in a nervous kind of way
She knew all the different things I’d say
She’s cool in a surreal kind of way
She broke down all my open doors
She sounds like she’s dying just for more
She found all the pieces on her broken flooooooooor

Surreal Kind of Way

Listen to the full track on FOUR EP to be released online on APRIL 27, 2017

This is also something new were trying; we don't have songs that sound anything like this one. It's quiet, its soft, but it can also be kind of powerful in some sense. These are the kinds of songs that come out when one is inspired, be it a girl, a dude, an event, whatever it may be... The lyrics is also kind of deep which is not very often in our music. Please enjoy this little number; hope it succeeds in being a catchy one! 

P.S. we'd love to have this on the radio even though it's not totally finished.

Carousal

mini-album soon

years ago when i had a chance
i couldve held your hand
but i was young and then i blew every circumstance
yet i still think
i dream of

dancing, dancing
ohh with you, with you
and maybe even share a drink or two while i tell you the truth
that i dont even care what this is for
as long as i get to share the floor
with you with you
with you

in my thoughts and dreams
i do a lil swayin away with you
even if i know it'll never realize

maybe one day i'll wake up
maybe someday it'll be true
maybe that day i'll be
i will be

dancing, dancing
ohh with you, with you
and maybe even love you a little more
while we tango across the floor
and i dont even know when i'll see you again
but i'll just keep living this dream til the end
with you with you
with you

dancing

We are all slaves to our darkest desires

'THE MANGO BRAVO REAL'
Music and lyrics by Andy Chlau
Produced, Mixed, and Mastered by Patrick Palomares

Lyrics:
I'll tell you
though you're the clumsy one
I'm fumbling
I'm out of beat when you're gone
It's put me out the mango mood and bravo it crumbles to song

Where has my focus gone?

Oh it's gone, when you're gone, I'm gone
It's no fun, when you're gone, it's no fun
Do you think you can throw a wish in the well and your luck will find you

Though, you know I'm the only one
I'm struggling
I can't strum up my guitar
I'm jammed into a berry blue
One moment I'm loving you next moment you're gone

Where has my focus gone now?

Oh it's gone, when you're gone, I'm gone
It's no fun, when you're gone, it's no fun
Do you think you can throw a wish in the well and your luck will find you another one?

Though I know I'm the only one
I'm struggling
I'm out of beat when you're gone

Oh it's gone, when you're gone, I'm gone
It's no fun, when you're gone, it's no fun
Do you think you can throw a wish in the well and your luck will find you another one?

'THE MANGO BRAVO REAL'

Johnny don't you be afraid
Johnny don't you be afraid
Everything is crumbling down
But you have to stick around

Johnny don't you be afraid
Things are never too late
Life is always touch and go
Boy you have to take it slow

Tomorrow's always a brand new day
Or so they say
Don't let your demons come out to play hey hey hey

Johnny don't you be afraid
Johnny don't you be afraid
Everybody's still around
So pick yourself up off the ground

Johnny don't you be afraid
Things are never too late
The sadness just comes and goes
Just remember to be on your toes

Tomorrow's always a brand new day
Or so they say 
Don't let your demons come out to play hey hey hey

Everybody Loves You, Johnny

I wanted you to know
It was never all for show
Every thing I did and every word I said
They felt so right 

I wanted you to know
Since a long long time ago
Every thing I ever said kept running through my head
everytime

You probably don't know how I feel
You probably don't think that it's real
But if I get another chance I would try to hold your hand
But heartbreaks take a long time to heal

I wanted you to know
It was never all for show
Every thing I did and every word I said
They felt so right

Guy and Pip

LYRICS

Conversing words of freedom 
Can you tell me how?
How to fight them all
Young man with so much reason
What's it all about? 
The money you say

Said oh we're in the middle of it all
Take me for a spin now 
I say oh we're in the middle of it all 
Take me far away
Far away 

Love, the time for sleep is now 
Your mind has been chosen 
But how do you see clearly now 
If your eyes are open?
And in the larger scheme of things, 
I seldom react 
I'll wait for what the story brings cause my demons are back 
(Oh they're back) 

Some amount of time 
You will see 
That the piece of mind 
Is best left out at sea 
And oh don't you know how the leaves grow 
Slowly 
And you light the fire baby 
You breathe in deeply

Oh we're in the middle of it all 
Take me far away
Far away

What's That Driving Song?

A single for the upcoming album "Everything Was Beautiful, and Nothing Hurt", coming out someday.

This track was recorded by Paga Manikan at Easy Audio Recording Studio (EARS), mixed and mastered by Raphael Pulgar at Saturnine Audio.

Track/Album art by Shazafras Jeremy De Guzman, additional work by Jan Peter Nery. 

Lyrics:

If this is where it's come to, well I guess that I want out
This whole thing has lost its meaning and everyone is having doubts
I tried so hard to think that we're just going through a phase
But I can see it in your eyes, you're green with envy and red with hate

Now I see it's too late
If it wasn't would you do it all again?
I'm letting go of this day old hate
I don't want to write about it anymore

But we feel obligated to stay here even though no one wants us around

No one listens to punk anymore
What we're doing's not punk anymore

Green with envy and red with hate, I guess it's already too late

Space Course: Horse To Horse

"Camels/Poinsettia" by Dante & Amigo feat. Olympia (Prod. by tea shirt)

Deathwish playa nice to know ya,
Leaning back in peace among these vultures, 
A verbal burglar sick of jumping hurdles
I'm sure deep inside we all music connoisseurs, right?

We got nothing else but time and perspective
But any given day you might fall down
Pen your thoughts before ya turn into dust
"Do some people still say they haven't heard of us?"

Stupid!
It doesn't matter
It's just music brotha, talk is cheap
There's nothing to abhor or read into deeply
Really it's nothing more than a rhyme on a beat, ugh

Listen, we got good intentions
Spread the word to the internations
That we on one vibration
Or something like that

So raise your hands up high as if ya touching the sky tonight
And raise your head as high as I’m feeling alright? Aye
Now bring ‘em down to ya waist as if y’all wasted youth, to tell you the truth
All I'm tryna say is if you're digging the groove, then keep movin

Keep movin' 

Don’t speak unless it’s more beautiful than silence
So I hopped on this track it’s accurate, immaculate 
Top 1 and we back with ski masks and shit (attacking it)
Late nights we was passionate
Early morning we be back to it, stackin’ it to the maximum
I put my foot down playa I ain’t backin’ up
I heard my words ain’t black enough? (I don’t really know what that means man)
I guess I’m off-white
I set it off right
I’m kinda odd like future kids
I’m looking for a woman I can have future kids and eat sushi with
and treat her Gucci man, aye! (When it’s all Gucci man)
Let me tell ya, ’sall Gucci
So do your thing girl
Just do your thing (Do you feel it?)

Early morn’ we gon’ go to the shore
Get your feet wet, take deep breath (Do you feel it?)
Late night when the lights kinda bright while we listening to Keith Sweat 
Singin' like, singin' like

Can you taste the moonlight vibe? (Waves crashing, time passin’)
Warmin’ up the summer night (Why won’t you feel the vibe, feel the vibe?)
Feel the water crashing right into your soul (She got me feelin’ high, feelin’ high)
Go and leave it all behind (Don’t you feel alive, feel alive?)

Poinsettia, poinsettia
You a flower child, poinsettia
They gettin’ jealous now, they wanna set us up
Don’t let ‘em break us down, we keep building up
We getting relish now, finna spend it all
Tryna ketchup now, they can smell the blood
When I talk to God it’s like we catching up 
Under that ultralight beam I hope they send us up
Feel me?
