All Systems Failure, the third single from Picture One’s upcoming full length Hearts of the Terminus, thematically explores the idea of the failing social systems around us and our roles within them. The song focuses on our inability to fully view the moving parts of current complex structures as we move through them, and our ultimate ability to more clearly view older power structures and their failings.

Written and performed by Thomas Barnwell. Mixing assistance by Ian Deaton. Front cover painting by Jessica Jean Kauzmann. Graphic layout by Todd Briner. Mastered by Jessica Thompson.

All Systems Failure

You are a little bit of heaven, 
and I'm just coming down. 
It's six I guess I got til seven, 
to turn you back around. 

My love nothing's permanent, 
Can't get a cure for it, 
but I would try, I would try. 

In the air I breathe again, feel again and you...
You disappear indifferent, flying there in the blue. 
The blue. 

And were they perfect moments?
Cos I'm so different now. 
You get kicked, get tough, get up, get over, 
the dream you hadn't found. 

My love nothing's permanent, 
Can't get a cure for it, 
but I would try, I would try. 

In the air I breathe again, feel again and you...
You disappear indifferent, flying there in the blue. 
The blue, the blue, flying there in the blue. 
In the air I breathe again, feel again and you...
The blue, the blue, flying there in the blue.

Josefin Öhrn + The Liberation - Rainbow Lollipop (Cherrystones Remix)

The Path of the Clouds, Marissa Nadler’s ninth solo album, is the most stylistically adventurous, lyrically transfixing, and melodically sophisticated collection of songs in her already rich discography. Gripped by wanderlust while suddenly housebound at the start of the pandemic in 2020, Nadler escaped into writing, and came back with a stunning set of songs about metamorphosis, love, mysticism, and murder. Blurring the line between reality and fantasy and moving freely between past and present, these 11 deeply personal, self-produced songs find Nadler exploring new landscapes, both sonic and emotional.

Selected by British DJ and vinyl hunter Paul Hillery, new BBE Music compilation ‘We Are The Children Of The Sun’ showcases a shimmering collection of rare folk funk and AOR with a distinctly Balearic feel.

Former tour DJ for Polyphonic Spree and the man behind YouTube channel and mix series ‘Folk Funk & Trippy Troubadours’, Paul Hillery’s lovingly handpicked musical assembly takes in strummed soft rock, blissful beach beats, the soft fizz of electronica, all carried to your ears by a gentle summer breeze.

The music on ‘We Are The Children Of The Sun’ ranges from hazy, long-forgotten early 70s tapes, right through to digital compositions recorded during lockdown in 2020.

“Tune in” says Paul, “and ruminate while consciousness is awoken with transmissions dropping out from the fringes of psyche tranquillity, holding hands with folk-funk that runs deep and hazy, as the bejewelled turquoise waters lap gently at the ocean’s shore.”
