@user-337510332: Very nice...I´ll have to repost this in my playlist!

I don't think it's depression
I'm just honest, feathered, gone
I got my work cut out
You got your work cut out

I ain't seen the sky in a few months
But I have been sober for a few days
Unless you count, well,
You can't count that drive down from Colorado
Through Utah
You know the beer there is a little weaker
Until you get down to Arizona
Did you hear? They don't like faggots there
Or black motherfuckers
They shot 'em dead
Faggot motherfucker
He painted his nails red
He can burn

Go to a town
From the highway by your house
Don't think about what you might do if you don't get this job
Giving money away to the things you thoughts you might get one day
But you didn't - you put it down on plastic
Put it down on plastic
You can cut your pretty powders with plastic

And fold your newspaper
There's not a goddamn thing you can do anyway
You know they're out on the streets
Oh, they're out on the streets
You know that black motherfucker is out on the streets
He ain't got your job because his name ain't right
My dad said he can't be trusted
And I'm white so I think maybe it isn't up to me

And I hate cops
But when I do, they don't kill me

But I sometimes wish they would kill me
Because you're all fake and you don't give a shit
Fuck you and your famous friends
And your voice ain't that good now anyway
If I'm honest you know
And have you cried listening to Lou Reed's Berlin?

Well I have
Well I have
Cause I left a piece of me up in Berghain
You know a straight motherfucker said my name
All these straight motherfuckers
All these straight motherfuckers
All these straight motherfuckers
All these straight motherfuckers

You know I just took your order
You could at least look me in the eye
You can say "hi" because I said, "hello"
I even smiled
I even smiled in the know
I am some other places I would like to go
I haven't called my mother in days
And my brother's been dead for years
And my dad and I are really starting to make some progress
But anyway would you like some fries and maybe a salad
And the juice bar is just across the street
It's just across the street
It's just across the street
You straight motherfucker
It's just across the street

My friends have been touring the world
Those straight motherfuckers
Their pictures doing things they wouldn't really ever do
Their pictures of doing things they really wouldn't ever do
Their pictures doing things they wouldn't really ever do
They are doing things they wouldn't really ever do
Doing things that straight motherfuckers do
Doing things that straight motherfuckers do
Doing things that straight motherfuckers
Don't be a straight motherfucker
Just be you

Straight Motherfuckers and Their Famous Friends

An improvised experimental electronic ambient minimalist mediation using eurorack synthesizers and processed vocals from Black Lodge & em.g. released by Blight Records in Washington, DC

Dip your toe into the pool of synth and human correspondence. Swim in the pulse and swallow the tonality. It may be a long exercise, but once you emerge, you can be rejuvenated and empowered. It’s just about how you choose to listen

Black Lodge & em.g - "Silencio"

4 tracks. 90 second previews.

Decon/Recon breaks the norm on 'remix'. Instead of the artist and the remixers, we are all artists and all remixers on equal footing. We shared our sounds to each other. We each made a track using those sounds. We now share with you as a collective without identifying who made which track. Enjoy guessing, no one will really know except the artists themselves.

Future Times is very juiced to announce a two-track 12" from one of DC's freshest, Sami, of the wonderful 1432 R crew! "Planing" cruises with morphing late night drums and blasted flutes through a gang of FX and synth wash, and "Sickos" is another all-nighter, a crispy bubbler that keeps swingin' and slammin', for body and mind. Deejays take heed, this is 1 u need!

Paperhaus' second LP "Are these the Questions that We Need to Ask"

Are These The Questions That We Need To Ask?

Go Cozy

Hilo (pron. hē-lō) is a soundtrack of transformation, of leaving who one is in order to become who one needs to be.

In 2014, my life was turned upside down when I learned I had been adopted. Everything I thought I knew about my origin was untrue, a fabrication. As an artist, I began to produce music that became an audio description of my life during this experience, from thoughts and feelings of levity and absurdity, to despair and prolapse. All the elevated emotions are documented here.

To make sense of this surprise life turn and thrive, I had to face the experience of dying while being alive, becoming reborn while trying to hold dearly to whom I'd been. All the while, I gave the experiences within my head a voice through music.

Hilo is named for the town and airport on the island of Hawaii where I first landed to meet my birth father's family. All of the tracks here were begun and edited on airplanes and trains, fitting the transformational aspects of this journey.

Art is identity. I couldn't release this album without giving the listener context for it. What you hear is the inner dialogue of adventure, illumination, anxiety, and facing a terrifying yet ultimately beautiful unknown. 

This is my story, but it is also a narrative--as old as Greek mythology--of anyone or group who has faced crisis and survived, emerging galvanized and more spiritually complete.

Allow me to take you on a ride.

Thank you: Nick Garcia for his excellent mixing and mastering assistance. Guest vocalist collaborators, John Thornley, Ameer Dyson, Bernard Farley, Rachel Wong, Patrick Baker, Brittany Sims, Alex Tebeleff, and Abbay Misganaw for giving voice to the yearning and searching aspects of these songs. My family and friends, especially Mallory, for priceless feedback and for standing with me throughout the highs and lows of this crazy experience that have came together to form this album.

Go Cozy
