EMBRACE THE BASS EP

An audial exploration of the underground water aquifer deep beneath Whatitiri Mountain. He karanga aroha tenei ki nga hapu o Te Uriroroi, Te Mahurehure me Te Parawhau, nga kaitiaki tuturu o Poroti. He Wai Mana, He Wai Ora, He Wai Maori.

WHATITIRI

DOCTRINE OF RECOVERY is the fourth track on my new EP, check it out here:

DOCTRINE OF RECOVERY

How do we recover from the Doctrine of Discovery?

(Translation)

Speak your Indigenous language 
Hold tight to your values and traditions
Sing your ancestral songs
Chant your ancestral prayers

The land is sacred
Water is a treasure
Pay heed to the Gods
On land and at sea

Take care of your elders
Cherish the children
Support your kin
Do not denigrate them

Fight for truth and justice
Hold firm to the treasures of ancient times
Protect the environment
Empower the people

TATAU O TE PŌ 

(Translation)

I turn to the dark womb
Of the Dawn Goddess
Who fled to the door of the world of death
To become a welcoming gateway
To her children destroyed by the harsh light of day
Grow in the intense darkness
Sharpen like the black obsidian
Rise above
As a dark star

TATAU O TE PŌ

TATAU O TE PO

(Translation)

Te Auaunga weeps
Mangere Mountain bows its head
I did not foresee
That this most treasured of feathers would be plucked
The eldest grandchild
Swept away in the first freshet
Of a cruel spring
The lone Totara on One Tree Hill
Stands in isolation
I weep for this most cherished treasure

LOSE YOUR MIND

I GOT NEXT

(Translation)
ANCIENT ONES 

Come forth the ancient ones
Come forth the ancestors
Come forth the gods of the ancient world
From the great homeland
From the distant homeland
From the great night
From the long night
Guide us your descendants
That sit confused in this new world
The survivors, the sufferers 
Cry out to you

Guiding Star (Mokotron Remix)

RUBI DU - GUIDING STAR [MOKOTRON REMIX]

Monotribe + Phaser + Delay + Distortion Pedal. Laptops and VSTs are boring, I'm going back to the 90s, anyone coming?

I MISS THE 90s

Shoulda shelled out for the good stuff. Just ride it out bro. 


SLUNKY F*CK

Written in 1998 and rescued from DAT tape. Pretty much just a Roland JX8P Analog synth, a Boss Delay and a line mixer. Big up all the Cromwell Street massive. 

This was a track from an EP I wrote in 1998, but never released cause I didn't have any confidence. I burned one copy of the EP and gave it to Eon Cafe in Kinglsand and they played it. I'm putting this online so people can finally hear these tunes, even though they are grossly outdated and aesthetically irrelevant.
