Recorded the sound of a strange percolator I stumbled upon in the Martian Palace, when looking for a secret exit route. It's a labyrinthine building. Grown like a plant, but a plant with a plan.
It's corridors shifting in time.

This perculator got it's power from piezoelectric cells placed under the dancefloors. Brilliant. 
The coffee it produced was strong enough to break on through the veil of drowsiness brought on by the fumes inside the palace. 

I must away...

This was made with a Korg SAS-20 and a whole lot of effects.

Hope And Empowerment At The End Of A Long Day

A sentimental country-ish ballad with a big sad finish.
Dedicated to anyone suffering from memory loss. Thanks for listening.
Lyrics:
I can still remember
Felicia in December
Outside in the cold
Smoking Swisher Sweet Cigarettes
But she would always forget
If you're gonna inhale that shit
You know she always got sick
She'd chewed down the tip

It's like I told you on the phone
My mind is not all my own
All my memories are dissolving
Our nights in Arroyo Park
Out feeling that spark
That Datsun that would never start
My bad Cure haircut (disaster!)
My heart was beating faster
A sketch of a love scene
Painted behind
A gothic old master

I was selfish with my time
And now I seem to lead my life
Conducting orchestras in my mind
Oh, I don't know how this sounds
But sometimes I listen to the ground
To hear and feel the rumblings
I think that you're coming around

All my memories are dissolving
Soon, I'll have no memories of this world
I'll have no memories of this world
So let's go out tonight
And shoot out the lights!
Let's break our hearts tonight
I'll have no memories of this world

I wanted to drop you this line
To thank you for the time
And thank you for being in my life
Thank you for being my life

Let's Break Our Hearts Tonight

this is southern style Blues.

One misspoken word, one wrong look mistimed 

Law enforcement agents will charge you with thought crime

You’re in violation, you flaunted the guide lines

It’s time for vaporisation, it’s time to say good bye yeah!


It’s time to say good bye

It’s time to say good bye

It’s time to say good bye

It’s time to say good bye


The gas lighting government at the ministry of love

Monitor your every move they watch you from above

Citizens do as you’re told, no thinking for yourself

The tele screen instructs you how if you value your good health.


Propaganda

It’s time to say good bye

Propaganda

It’s time to say good bye

Propaganda

It’s time to say good bye

Propaganda

It’s time to say good bye


The thought Police are in your head or are you double thinking

Don’t dare say what’s on your mind or you’ll get vaporised 

There signs are there you know it’s true

Don’t look up they’re watching you

Keep your head down, walk the line

Look straight ahead, you’ll be fine.


It’s time to say good bye  

Propaganda

It’s time to say good bye

Lyrics

What do I have to say
To make you stay
The world is turning now
Without me

Why do you have to keep
Just letting me retreat
This worldly learning is
So lonely

Take my hand, dear
Help me to stand, dear
It thaws my heart, just
To have you near

Cos times are changing, so fast
Can we find the energy to last
This price we paid was it worth the cost
Or will we feel that all is lost

On the horizon
Sunset or sunrise
Facing death, or saving lives
Losing our faith
Or finally arrive

You used to bring me
Coffee in the morning
You used to kiss me in the rain
I remember times so full of yearning
Oh will we ever feel that way again

Cos times are changing, so fast
Can we find the energy to last
This price we paid was it worth the cost
Or will we feel that all is lost

On the horizon
Sunset or sunrise
Facing death, or saving lives
Losing our faith
Or finally arrive

Collab with Martin Reed

This is a new year —-the outlook is fair
 Start a brand new chapter I killed it last year 
A force to be reckon with ——this much is clear 
Writing futures not histories a real pioneer 
yo ——-it’s IPG1——— I’m still off the chain 
turn up the music ——- this ——-the heat I maintain 

*******for Part 2 ***Freestyle—-not written

OK here we go ——set it off like a boss
I—-Paid the price ——-paid the cost—-there’s —no love loss
Call it what you want ——but ——call it—-pure pleasure 
——skillzzz gained——- from every bar —- every measure 
treasure the moments —the performance—the key
I deliver it right ——-Come on vibe with me 
————it’s an—-emcees delight ——when I lock it down —-
I lock it down tight——-Slamming bars ——like it’s Devine right
authorized to excite—-Sight beyond sight
and I keep it cool ———-like my name was frostbite 

Caught up in the same struggle —-on the daily 
one common interest in mind ——who’s gonna pay me 
——Let’s take some time —-to acknowledge each other
because it’s the same struggle——only change is the weather
different rule —-same game —-we’re all ——in it together
We Position ourselves ——with the things we’ve earned 
And the knowledge ——we’ve collected ——from the lessons learned

my space of existence ———is-in the mix 
Acknowledge—-the persistence ——a hip-hop fix
Real sounds—— real memories—-why resist
so profound ———in harmony ——as I transmit
different vibes —— and melodies —do exist 
But I’m the source—- and the remedy ——you must admit
——worded ——-artistry —as—-I transmit
doing —-what comes naturally——so I just spit

Mysteries Of The Blim Part 3

Solitary manipulator of soundproducing stuff. Mostly improvising in some way or many. 

You're free to download and use this music as you please. Sample,mix, fix or mangle it into unrecognisableness, but I want to hear the result. That's the only catch.
Can send you stems etc if wanted... 

Interested in collaborations/remixing/stuff.
Give feedback and hints as you see fit. Peer review is important in this kind of endeavour. I have no charts for these territories, no boundaries are in view, no limits.

Mixed with and mostly for headphones, not sure how it'll sound on sound systems. For some tracks it's advisable to turn the sound up, but some tracks are quite loud. I don't know what I'm doing half(or more of) the time.
Time is elusive and opportunities for spending time on my music comes and goes fast. An hour here and two hours there...I need coffee...
