Recorded 2012

I Remember featuring Ru CL (Melbourne) was written and produced by Motley. The song is a reflection of childhood, hardship and family.  It is a statement that calls to realize that distance between family doesn’t mean they are not in your thoughts. Motley describes it as;

“Even though you can live through hard times, happiness can still be all around you.”

I Remember is an illustration through words to describe this. It pays tribute to the love and respect he holds for his family even though they live on other sides of the world.

Deal Or No Deal features many of Motley’s adolescent inspirations such as Camp Lo, Heltah Skeltah (Ruck & Rock) Nottz, Rah Digga and Billy Danze (M.O.P.) The album will be released digitally from October.

I Remember (Feat. Ru CL)

nana is very important to me and i think of her often, i miss my nana so much lately, the distance kills me. i want to introduce her to my baby, her great granddaughter, Qualia but travel restrictions and my family's anxiety around travel at these times has made it look unlikely. i hope to fly to england this year so that i can kiss her and squeeze her. even if Qualia doesn't make it in the physical it is important that i do x love you nana x

Recorded 2015

I grew a plant at home on the balcony.
The plant was beautiful and taught me a lot about myself and the world.
I recorded some of what I learned.
This song is the result.

Turn it Round

Turn It Round (unreleased demo featuring Daniel Merriweather 2012)

I started experimenting with different vocal styles and made an EP in 2012. Unfortunately the videos were never completed and therefor promotion didn't take place. I still think these songs are worth sharing so I just uploaded them from the archives.

1979

It's Cool

I Get It In

Daddy

This song was written together with the young person that lived the experience documented in the lyrical content. This recording was intended as a vocal guide. The young person insisted that the song was executed exactly the way he intended and thus this demo has remained untouched since its recording in 2015.

TIME (DEMO) #FAMILYTHERAPY

Who Am I?

My sister and I haven't been as close as I would like to be.
I made this vibration to put out some love, healing and light.
Forgiving myself for hurting her in the past, and forgiving her for hurting me in the present.

Sibling (DEMO)

these demos might not get the full release promotion that they deserve, but they deserve to get off my hard drive and see the digital light of this digital day. Enjoy and don't watch the mix.. i've been busy with other aspects of life to care more.. one day i shall return with more musical mastery.. thats a promise to myself x love yas all for tuning in x will try to get stuff on spotify/apple/etc..
