It's the first time I've heard your music but i have to admit that your work is great❤.

This is really cool love the vibe 👌👌

Found this by accident, reminds me of a coffee shop during a slow hour, with passive agressive staff... The kind of coffee shop you stumble upon in the corner of a street with the appearence of a rundown house with overgrown vines on one side, 

but when you enter the shop you find it to be oddly comforting. In a moment perserved in time, time has passed kind of way. 

I love how real your work is; I don't often listen to music and think, "Wow, yeah this is so spot on. Real talk." Also, I really dig the beat on this.

To Be Loved

To Be Loved (feat. AURORA)

written and recorded in two days - demo, unreleased, unmastered, etcetera.
lyrics below

Broke a heart to the rythm of a highway
flew up high to the beat of a heart
oh, just like television showed me
in this kingdom of boys my rules don't apply anymore

and of all the wisdom in the atmosphere
how much should i breathe in?
"don't eat food that needs a television commercial"
and "teach your kids not to hate"
or: "don't expose your thighs if they're how your life made them"
and "here's a thing that costs the world
and it will slowly take you apart."

i wanna rely on myself not to hate me
i wanna rely on you not to hate yourself
i wanna rely on not dying at the hands of another
i want a bed, no poisoned food, love and a library card.

Last time i checked i was still fine and breathing
there is a world of money that wants me to feel bad
turns out they have all of the pretty solutions
and they'd rather have me crying and buying than happily laughing in their face.
Sunshine, i'm glad for you it's all nice and dandy.
Congratulations, you are living in the future, son.
Until i get there you won't find me first row waving when the king comes
i'll be somewhere in the back cutting the flagpoles down.

i wanna rely on disney not to fuck with my expectations
i wanna rely on my teachers to tell me the ugly truth
i wanna rely on not dying at the hands of another
i want a bed, no poisoned food, love and a library card.

I truly think you'd have better orgasms
if once for all you'd leave your sarcasm at home
and i heard that they say home is where the heart is
I know nothing makes sense anymore until you make your own.

I wanna rely on the so-called kindness of strangers
i wanna rely on us to see through the fog
i wanna rely on not dying at the hands of another
i want a bed, no poisoned food, love and a library card.

Squalloscope is Anna Kohlweis, who exists as a multimedia artist, illustrator, music producer, composer, singer, and songwriter based in Vienna. Between 2006 and 2011 she was known as Paper Bird, a name under which she released three full-length albums. Squalloscope was born in 2012, marking a new era, because she can. Anna Kohlweis works as a solitary force on songwriting, production, recording, artwork, and music videos, lyric books and stage outfits. This is an intimate endeavour, music that wants to be sung right into your face, bubbling over with imagery and politics, every record a bridge to the audience, an exercise in communication and community. What else are we here for? After five albums on Seayou Records and lately also on Fake Four Inc., Squalloscope is currently working on a handful of solo- and collaborative records, generous with words, until it all bursts at the seams.
