Physical Genius

On the heels of their acclaimed 'Disco To Die To', OOFJ re-emerge with the mysterious "Snakehips". An unforeseen critical success, reviews of their debut LP spoke of "dark Badalamenti" and "Polanski terror with opaque floating vocals" - OOFJ's latest still exists in this darker, Lynchian sphere but their new single also seems to suggest the light of day-glo escaping through the cracks. The swivel-hipped "Snakehips" conjures the groovy anxiety of rubbing up against a stranger and pretending to be a stranger to someone you know. 

The duo met in New York while Jenno Bjørnkjær was working on music for Lars Von Trier's 'Melancholia'. OOFJ's distinctive, exotic sound is the perfect fusion of South African vocalist Katherine Mills-Rymer dark romanticism and Jenno's cool Danish precision - creating something simultaneously glamourous, nightmarish, and narcotic. 

The song "Snakehips" was conceived on a hot, late afternoon where the couple resides in Highland Park in East LA overlooking the mountains. Katherine sporadically started singing about ‘snakehips', Jenno was perplexed to what it meant. She explained it as, "smooth, slim and how you feel drunk. She continues, "Also my grandpa always used to call me that, "hey snakehips," when I got dressed up for something, and looked a bit provocative…a bit perverse.’ Jens made the track, making a sound of complexity to bliss out to and make out to.

OOFJ's second album will be out in the fall, which promises to sound like romance, existential fright, fantasy and intellectual abandon over a boozy brunch.

Marion Cotillard - "Snapshot in LA"

Don't Even Think

🧘‍♂️ INNER PEACE (by Accident) 🧘‍♀️

This song is a guided meditation for people who tried everything else and are now just… tired.

It starts as a warm hug and slowly turns into a passive-aggressive life coach whispering:
“Have you considered not caring anymore?”

✨ Topics covered include:
– quitting without officially quitting
– confusing calm with numbness
– lowering expectations until they trip over the floor
– and discovering that inner peace might just be emotional airplane mode

Perfect for:

people who once had dreams

people who still have dreams but would like a refund

late-night listeners staring at the ceiling thinking “maybe silence is enough”

⚠️ Side effects may include:

sudden stillness

ironic enlightenment

laughing uncomfortably because it hits too close

the urge to lie down and do absolutely nothing

Is inner peace freedom?
Is it resignation?
Is it just giving up… but with good posture?

Press play, stop wanting, and enjoy the calm.
Shhh… you’ve done enough.

Lyrics:

Come on…
You’ve done enough.
Inner peace is easy.
You just have to stop.

You’re tired of pushing
Tired of the noise
Every little choice
Every broken voice

Why keep wanting
What won’t stay?
Why keep hoping
It just hurts anyway

You call it fire
I call it strain
You call it living
I call it pain

Inner peace is giving up
Let it fall, don’t hold it tight
Lay your dreams down, nice and slow
Feel how light it feels tonight

Inner peace is stepping back
No more fight, no more flame
Nothing lost if nothing’s tried
That’s the trick of staying sane

Let it go… (let it go…)
That’s the way… (that’s the way…)
No resistance… (no resistance…)
Peace will stay… (peace will stay…)

Look around you
See the mess
Everyone’s tired
No one wins this

All that wanting
All that drive
Just keeps you hungry
Just keeps you alive

And alive is overrated
When calm feels clean
When numb is quiet
And quiet feels mean…less

Why stand out
Why feel too much
Why keep reaching
When you can touch… nothing

Inner peace is giving up
Lower your eyes, slow your breath
Trade your edge for something soft
Practice dying before death

Inner peace is staying small
Safe inside the middle lane
If you don’t expect a thing
You don’t have to feel the pain

No dreams, no fear
No highs, no fall
No loss, no love
No need at all

Just float
Just rest
Just blend in line
Peace is silence
Peace is fine

Inner peace is giving up
That’s what makes it work so well
Nothing pulls you, nothing hurts
Nothing rings the warning bell

Inner peace—no open doors
No reasons left to run
If you stop wanting more from life
Life is finally… done

Shhh…
You don’t need that fire.
Inner peace is easy.
Just… give up.

Lay It Down

Chapped Lips (featuring Samuel T Herring)

I’ve gone too far now 
In someone else’s clothes now
Someone else’s weight I’m carrying 

I’ve gone too far now 
All the trees overgrown now
The houses all turn into apartments 

Walk you to the station 
The cars all drive by so loud 
Your words in slow motion 
I check myself each step through the crowd

I don’t want to see you get on the train
This drifting is all I know 
Throw me from the water  
and I won’t know how to be
This drifting is all I know

I’ve gone too far now 
In someone else’s clothes now
Someone else’s weight I’m carrying 

I’ve gone too far now 
The grey all overgrown now
The city skyscrapers bend over us

Your hand is so heavy in mine 
I’ve learned to let it ground me 
Drift forward in routine
In this endless hangover hold me

I don’t want to see you get on the train
This drifting is all I know 
Throw me out of the water  
and I won’t know how to be
This drifting is all I know

I’ve fallen on my own regret,
Building towers from my love.
Your claws around my throat again,
All I am is not enough.
Tell me that there’s something left,
I’m a coward and a cub,
We try so hard but stay bereft,
Mm, I’m broken up.

I don’t know where you go,
But I know you so well,
When I’m alone with you, alone with you.
I don’t know who you are,
When you’re with your friends,
I can only lose.

It doesn’t matter what we said,
Leave the flowers in the dust, 
I can’t remember what it meant,
Only that I wrote for both of us.
I’ve fallen on my own regret,
Building towers from my love.
Your claws around my throat again,
All I am is not enough.

Won’t you tell me that I’m more than just my chemicals,
I’ve been thinking and it’s more than just electrical.
