A mesmerizing track that combines elements of electronic music with a hypnotic and sluggish vibe. From the squelchy, pumping bass arpeggio that drives the rhythm to the plucked electronic instruments crafting a subtle and melancholic melody, this composition takes listeners on a captivating sonic journey.

As the track progresses, it transitions into a passage where a big analogue synth takes the spotlight, delivering an anthem-like melody that soars above a warm and melodic bassline. This section creates a sense of depth and emotion, inviting the listener to immerse themselves in the atmospheric soundscape.

Adding to the drive and energy of the track is the snappy snare, which injects a rhythmic intensity and further propels the music forward. The combination of these carefully crafted elements results in a dynamic and engaging composition that captivates the listener from start to finish.

"Pressure Valve" is a must-listen for electronic music enthusiasts, offering a fusion of fat basslines, melancholic melodies, and uplifting anthems. Get ready to be transported to a world where hypnotic rhythms and immersive soundscapes collide.

Pressure Valve

Oh, you're chained round your middle.
and you've no way of breaking.
Stare in the mirror and decide to keep faking. 
Perhaps you'd care more if you'd a much bigger stake in.
How did you end up owned?

You're like a pound shop fagin, sending others to take for.
Hardly ever get the things that you wouldn't pay for
A string of hankies with nothing on the end of.
Consider yourself well done.

Oh, you need a little something a break from the revelry. 
What you were lacking weren't  attached to a family.
Trap door open up with every man's name on.
Son, you can fall down low.

Oh, there's no escaping, it's all bought and paid for.
What would you even want to escape for?
It's not like anybody is waiting to hear from.
There's nothing to overthrow. 

You're a pound shop fagin. look what you have created.
The thing with women is they're greedy for babies.
Keep your head or you'll get caught if your lazy.
It's not like you didn't know.

Lyrics

I guess I'm all out of heroes.
I tried to make one of you.
In the confusion of youth
I met guards I could not get through.

Your useless defense is.
To be quite offended.
And not look me in the eye. 
Yeah. 

There isn't such a thing as heroes.
It's all a little white lie.
We tell ourselves to feel better 
They're all just trying to get by.

It's just circumstances
Them people took chances.
So bring them down from the sky. 
Yeah

I only had simple heroes.
The type you see every day. 
A normal man or a woman.
Turns out to be quite two faced.

When it comes to the crunch, 
then you just come out punching.
And find no one by your side. 
Yeah. 

Heroes fly away. 
Heroes come to play. 
Heroes for a day. 

No invite to come out to play.
A betrayal not to your face.
A pedestal no longer on.
They don't know the words to your songs.
An excuse instead of a face. 
Not even aware of the race.
A blanket ban on the children.
And they've never spent very long.

Missing You

Missing You (Dub Version)

The spring was here 
Clouds were away
Birds were singing 
You went away

You felt yourself 
Useless and vain
You smashed yourself 
Against a train

Easter was sad 
This year, my friend
I hope Christmas 
Will make the deal

You felt yourself 
Useless and vain
You smashed yourself 
Against a train

I'd lost your track 
For a little while
I found you back 
In a coffin

You left them all
Sad and empty
They loved you so
You didn't see

Easter was sad 
This year, my friend
I hope Christmas 
Will make the deal

You felt yourself 
Useless and vain
You smashed yourself 
Against a train

Easter was sad 
This year, my friend
I hope Christmas 
Will make the deal

You felt yourself 
Useless and vain
You smashed yourself 
Against a train
