It's the cyber world that is gonna take over.  What goes on there will be anybody's guess.

GRAY GOO

Triple D a bad little virus
Triple D it’s wrath is upon us
Triple D sneaks right up behind us
Triple D will easily blind us

Triple D a smart little virus
Triple D knows right where to bite us
Triple D call me an alarmist
But triple D ain’t no sweet Miley Cyrus

Gray Goo coming to get ya
Gray Goo gonna infect ya
Gray Goo is sure to up set ya
And knock the techno world on it’s ass
Gray Goo a Hannibal Lecta - patient like a time bomb

Triple D a bad little virus
Triple D knows right where to find us
Triple D it’s wrath is upon us
Triple D call me an alarmist
But triple D ain’t no sweet Miley Cyrus

Gray Goo coming to get ya
Gray Goo gonna infect ya
Gray Goo is sure to up set ya
‘Cause everything you did ya gonna lose
Gray Goo a Hannibal Lecta... gonna eat another drive!

Save yourself the trouble of roundin’ up ya bubbles
Can’t you see the cleansing banquet’s too late?
Shoulda thought it sooner before it spread the tumor,
which is looking more and more like our fate
We were told many years ago
not to put all our eggs in one place
Behold, there’s no solution
We reach the one conclusion that life...
may not escape cyber space

Triple D Virus & Gray Goo Comin' to Getcha

You can only make suggestions to people. But what do I know?

TEN YEARS LATER

So you like to talk about love
Yeah, you make believe there’s a romance brewin’
But when it comes to love
You’re and empty shell

Now I’ve seen you worry - in such a hurry
to always please the ones you love
And though you satisfy their selfish needs
you still go to bed feeling unfed

Well ten years later you’ll still feel the same
Stick this in your jumper and tell me that I’m wrong
10 years later you’re deeper in the grave
Don’t miss out before that gravel rolls

So you like to think about God
It’s a paradox and a real time waster
It’s hard enough with a job in a cubicle with the flat screen busted
With lawyers and doctors and beta-teen blockers nipping at your paycheck heels
When the day is done and you’re in your bed – get’em out of your head
before you are dead


Or ten years later you’ll still feel the same
Stick this in your jumper and tell me that I’m wrong
10 years later you’re deeper in the stage
Don’t miss out before the curtain falls


Why do you stand in line
The world is turning with such indifference
As if you need this line
You can leave it - take a path to greater times


Well ten years later you’ll still feel the same
Stick this in your jumper and tell me that I’m wrong
10 years later you’re deeper in the grave
Don’t miss out before the gravel rolls

Ten Years Later

You hold it in long enough something's going to explode.  You're point being?...

SILENT JUNKIE

You never moved,
Always took the safest route to please your soul
Selling your groove
Meant to keep a quiet eye and play a roll

Safe thoughts inside your tears when you'd over load
Safe thoughts to hide your fears and keep you cold...

Silent junkie in a tin can
(make electrical impulses arc)
Silent junkie in a tin can
(if you "open" it never grows dark)
And it's ok to be alive and spit at the sun

You always won,
Always pleasing daddy at the drop of three
Having some fun, meant a reminiscing of the family tree

Safe thoughts to cool your tongue over daddy's rules
Safe thoughts the day you hung in daddy's shoes...

Silent junkie in a tin can
(make electrical impulses arc)
Silent junkie in a tin can
(if you "open" it never grows dark)
And it's ok to be alive and spit at the sun

Silent junkie in a tin can
(make electrical impulses arc)
Silent junkie in a tin can
(if you move on it never grows dark )
And it's Ok to be alive
Yeah, and spit at the sun

Silent Junkie

I speak from experience.  Not always a good thing but hey, it's a life.

FANTASIES ARE SAFER

Just when your thoughts are clear and your goals are all abreast Unexpectedly unfolds a reason to digress
It's a falling for a smile
It's a winking of an eye
It's a body made in heaven
But more than that it's just a lie'
Cause:

FANTASIES ARE SAFER WHEN YOU'RE ALONE IN THE STREETS
FANTASIES ARE SAFER IF YA JUST LOOKIN' FOR SWEETS

The sheltered thoughts of someone whom you’ve placed up on a shelf
Might seem disturbing if your fed up with yourself
But a falling for a smile
Like a winking of an eye
Can be momentary heaven that can later make you cry
That’s why:

FANTASIES ARE SAFER WHEN YOU'RE ALONE IN THE STREETS
FANTASIES ARE SAFER IF YA JUST LOOKIN' FOR SWEETS

But sometimes when love is blind it's in your head
You give up your precious time but they leave instead
And that's why:

FANTASIES ARE SAFER
(No heavy trips to go through)
I said that's why:
FANTASIES ARE SAFER
(No expectations to lower and let you feeling down)

I once cheated a friend
She was a true companion
Hurt the faith and washed out our family parade

And that’s why I say:

FANTASIES ARE SAFER WHEN YOU'RE ALONE IN THE STREETS
FANTASIES ARE SAFER IF YA JUST LOOKIN' FOR SWEETS.......................”solo”

But sometimes when love is blind it's in your brain
You give up your precious time but they don’t feel the same
And that's why:

FANTASIES ARE SAFER
(no heavy trips to go through)
I said That's why:
FANTASIES ARE SAFER
(no expectation to lower)

Brilliant Minds, Tragic Ends: Inventors Killed by Their Own Creations

WASH THE BLOOD WITH THE RAIN

Renda felt empty
Renda felt worse than her shoes
Renda remembers
The day when she heard the sad news

They had to play over it
They had to play "chicken-shit"
Now all that's left is on the train

Wash the blood with the rain

Just like the movies
Renda and I saw the change
Matching the photographs
Everyone looked rather strange

They had to play over it
They couldn't re-write the script
So young, so cold, so free of pain

Wash the blood with the rain

Now doncha know ya sucha winner when you play those baby games?
You can mollify regrets about the future and get your name....
Your name, in the papers where the general population will skim you by
Nothing new about some drunken kinda fools who now reside
On the other side...
On the other side!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We all play over it
There is no benefit but a life (a long and fruitful game)

Wash the blood with the rain

Wash The Blood With The Rain

ambichous

MEASURED” is a reflective boom-bap/trap fusion that delivers conviction without condemnation. Jazzy piano loops and crisp drums back a slick, conversational flow that warns against hypocrisy and judgment. With biblical insight and lived experience, the track urges grace over pride, and wisdom over ego. Soulful, smooth, and sonically rich, “MEASURED” reminds listeners that the scales we use will one day weigh us too.

MEASURED

A dark atmospheric rock song about temptation, fear, and curiosity. A gothic symphonic rock vibe with haunting vocals, moody guitars, and cinematic tension. This track explores that uneasy moment when you know you shouldn’t do something, but you can’t resist. Inspired by gothic horror, psychological tension, and that creeping dread in a dimly lit room. Perfect for fans of symphonic rock, darkwave, and eerie storytelling in music. Emotional, suspenseful, and unsettling — like pressing a button you were warned not to touch.

Don't Press It

"City Pastures" sees JJ mustering his modular synthesizer devices to rework an idea Inspekta Rootsman and he originally recorded in 2009 in Nairobi. 
City Pastures is a cautionary tale about how the illusions of greener pastures in the city of Nairobi can quickly become a nightmarish situation for those unacquainted with the insidious nature of the dog eat dog society of the city.
