I've come unstuck.

Brexit diptych part one.

The first year at the University of Glamorgan, probably late 2002. I only attended 3 lectures or so my entire career, preferring instead to plumb the depths of my soul and examine my mind from both micro and macro viewpoints, like a man standing between 2 parallel mirrors. After doing something that tends to keep you awake for too long, then doing it again, again, & then again. A marathon. 3 days later and still no sleep, a spider absailed down the curtains in my Halls cell-like box room. For some reason this produced an intense few hours of nightmarish arachnids lurking on ceiliings, chasing me down corridors, webs thick across the common room. God knows what I looked like, tearing wild-eyed past the silent doored & slumbering student rooms. Eventually managing to wake Matt, Apprentice Green's drummer, multi-instrumentalist & all round good egg. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the spider invasion had not occurred & I had not, in fact, been whisked off as the Devil's plaything to the caverns of Hell. Even the original rappelling spider was actually a bit of fluff suspended on a thread of curtain material. Ah well. Stay in school kids. 

The song was written a year or so later, morphing through a few forms. Special mention goes to Brummy's loping bassline & Matt's guitar overdubs. All recreated here. I have no idea how I wrote the piano riff. Probably just mashed the keys until it sounded good. Much like I do now.

I like the 9 to 5
Putting it all on the hard drive
I like the 6 to 10
I watch a movie and then
I goto bed at 11
Pray to the folks who art in heaven
From midnight till 3
I pray for those in purgatory
From 4 o'clock to 8
I pray for those for whom prayers came too late

"Sugar Rush" is the brand new indie-pop anthem by Porcelain Moon that offers a tongue-in-cheek perspective on the exhilarating thrill of a first kiss and new infatuation. A cool mix of indie, bedroom pop, and a touch of jazz, funk and soul - all topped off with honeyed vocals over a groovy beat. 

Written by Emma de Goede and Petrus Gerrit Matthee.
Produced and mixed by Gerry Matthee
Mastered by Mike Zietsman
Cover artwork by Emma de Goede
