rise up! o mother of all pains

lyrics:

~ verse 1 ~
pressure building spitting steam from the vents
you caught me in the middle of a fix of the lens
the portrait on the wall will show you what you protect
ironically you are the very lord you resent
tell me again about your mountain of men
i heard a little rumor you belittle your friends
i heard that every soul can lose a chance to repent
admonish me again and ill make war for the spent

~ chorus ~
my head is spinning
im moving sideways 
no chance of winning
its just like always 
the sky is all grey 
torment of all days
cant eat cant sleep cant just stop thinking bout it

my heart is lost now
so much for trying
given up hope now
reign on you tyrant
rusted my lifeline
no use in crying 
cant bleed cant sleep cant just stop thinking bout it

~ verse 2 ~
Rise up! 
O mother of all pains 
to the altar of my verses!
no god 
or hell can make up 
the pitiful misery you wrought thee 

[chorus]

~ verse 3 ~

pressure spent look at the mess you created
when all is said and done theyll only groan at your name 
no pride behind a legend full of nothing but shame
100 years of silence broken only in vain 

[chorus x2]

Skee Mask is one of dance music's greatest crossover stories of the past decade, with new albums greeted with the attention usually reserved for an Aphex Twin or a Caribou. ("Loved seeing this on r/indieheads," said one Reddit user, on the release of the 2021 LP Pool.) It's not hard to understand why: albums like Compro, he blends well-worn dance music tropes with incredible, detailed soundscapes and spine-tingling melodies. And on his 12-inches, he brings that sensibility to the dance floor, with an approach probably best described as articulate. Even on his most ambient of tracks, everything is in its right place. Along with founders the Zenker Brothers, his music outlines everything that makes Munich outfit Ilian Tape one of the best techno labels going.

On the decks, it's kind of a different story. It might surprise you if you only know his albums, but Skee Mask is an incredible DJ, balancing his predilection for hip-hop and UK-informed sounds with laser-focused techno. He can adapt to all sorts of situations—there's an incredible recording of him DJing with four of the best grime and drum & bass MCs in the business—and on his RA Podcast he focuses on the techno side of things, with nearly two hours of pacey techno and creative mixing, with dips into acid, electro, garage and more. It's a party-starting mix from a genuine star, perfect for getting through the holiday doldrums or pre-gaming your NYE plans. Like Skee Mask's best records, it's something to enjoy in any number of settings.

As @actress1 says, “chaos can be good” — and his next-level Cover Mix proves it

“This mix represents where I’m at musically right now. A mix which rubs early-to-mid-’90s German hard house and trance with Chicago jack the box acid zingers, moving into some Actress Ambi-bleep heaters and coming down with some warped, choral passages towards the end of the mix. At its heart, it's a reflection of what I’ve been listening to and playing out in clubs and at festivals over the past few months that also connects to my practice R&B Concrete that is at the core of the architecture behind my new album ‘LXXXVIIII’.”

Hi all,

Heart Somersault Radio is a new personal mix series from me ft unreleased music, club tracks, new productions, and DJ sets I’ve recorded live at shows.   I’ve been in more of a dance floor headspace for a while, so decided to do something with that energy.

Enjoy,

Tom
