STANK IN HERE feat. Mofak

Heh KONT*L (ft. aefka)

[Verse 1]
You look bored when he talks that way
I see sparks that he can’t contain
You laugh soft but your eyes say “stay”
You don’t even know you give it away

[Pre-Chorus]
I can tell you miss that thrill
He don’t move you, I know the deal

[Chorus]
He ain’t right, you know that’s true
Why you stay when he don’t move you?
You need heat, I got that groove
He ain’t right, but I might be you

(He ain’t right — nah nah)
(He ain’t right — nah nah)

[Verse 2]
Every night same old call, same fight
You scroll your phone just to feel alive
I can give you what he denies
You don’t need love, you need the vibe

[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t say stop if you lean like that
One more look, and you can’t go back

[Chorus]
He ain’t right, you know that’s true
Why you stay when he don’t move you?
You need heat, I got that groove
He ain’t right, but I might be you

[Bridge]
Lights down low, don’t fake it now
Heart says go, don’t break it now
He ain’t right, no, he ain’t you
Tonight’s the night you make your move

[Outro Loop]
He ain’t right — nah nah
He ain’t right — nah nah

He Ain’t Right

12. SONRIELE A LA VIDA (PROD SUBELOJAVI) Ciudad Electro

Suboptimal is all about shrugging off the pressure to be flawless. It’s a wry, witty take on what it means to never quite measure up — and being totally okay with it. From school struggles to chaotic relationships, the song celebrates embracing imperfection with a grin and a middle finger to expectations. With a healthy dose of irony and swagger, it flips the script on failure and finds freedom in not giving a damn.

Suboptimal erzählt mit einem Augenzwinkern davon, wie es ist, einfach nie ganz reinzupassen – und wie befreiend das sein kann. Ob Mathe-Stress, Beziehungschaos oder gut gemeinte Kritik: Hier geht’s darum, all das nicht mehr so ernst zu nehmen. Der Song feiert das Unperfekte, das Unbequeme – und das Selbstbewusstsein, seinen eigenen Weg zu gehen, auch wenn der nicht “perfekt” ist. Ironisch, ehrlich und herrlich gelassen.

Suboptimal

Der alte Seidel hält mir mal wieder 
Die Matheklausur direkt vors Gesicht
Mensch Junge!
So geht das doch nicht...

Was soll bloß mal aus dir werden?

Das ist suboptimal
Sagt er, weit entfernt von perfekt
Suboptimal
Ist mir doch egal
Denk ich
So was von egal
Juckt mich nicht

Susie hat die Nase voll von meinem Chaos
Und sagt mir mitten ins Gesicht
Ehrlich Süßer
So geht das nicht...

Wie soll so jemals was aus uns werden?

Das ist suboptimal
Meint sie, ganz und gar nicht perfekt
Suboptimal
Mir doch egal
Denk ich
Echt egal
Du verstehst mich nicht

Immer dasselbe
Schon mein ganzes Leben
Irgendwer hat was dagegen
Und motzt
„Ganz sicher nicht mit meinem Segen“

Ist schließlich suboptimal
Und weit weg von perfekt
Ich hätt‘s aber gern wie geleckt
Wie gemalt, schick
Halt einfach perfekt

Heute sitz ich am Strand
Die Füße im Sand
Meine Songs gehen durch die Decke
Weil ich in den großen Hallen einchecke

Wie gefällt Euch das?
Ein Genie beherrscht das Chaos

Suboptimal
Scheißegal

Little Hats is a ball of energy behind the booth — a community organiser and long-standing member of the Sisu Crew. She’s spent years shaping dancefloors and creative spaces. We’re thrilled to welcome her to Vinyl Souk this Saturday for an eclectic, feel-good set swaying from italo to disco to breaks.

“Gravity Games” is a smooth, high-energy jazz-funk pop fusion track that lifts the spirit and keeps the groove alive. Crisp guitars, soulful vocals, and tight rhythm sections come together in a seamless blend of modern pop sensibility and vintage funk flavor. It’s a song about breaking free from limits — about turning life’s pull into momentum.

With a contagious hook and a bright, feel-good energy, Gravity Games captures that moment when everything clicks — when rhythm meets freedom, and the world starts to move in sync. Whether you’re cruising, creating, or just vibing out, this one’s built to keep you floating above the noise.

“Suboptimal” is a cool and confident celebration of imperfection. It’s about embracing your flaws, laughing at expectations, and owning your chaos with pride. Between wry humor and urban groove, it tells the story of someone who’s done trying to fit in — turning every mistake into part of their style. It’s not about getting it right, it’s about finding rhythm in what’s “wrong.” Smart, soulful, and self-aware, “Suboptimal” turns imperfection into art.

„Suboptimal“ ist eine lässige, selbstbewusste Hymne auf die Unvollkommenheit. Es geht darum, die eigenen Macken zu umarmen, über Erwartungen zu lachen und das Chaos mit Stolz zu tragen. Mit einem Augenzwinkern und urbanem Groove erzählt der Song von jemandem, der aufgehört hat, sich anzupassen – und stattdessen jeden Fehler zu seinem Stil macht. Es geht nicht darum, alles richtig zu machen, sondern darum, den Groove im „Falschen“ zu finden. Klug, soulig und charmant unperfekt – „Suboptimal“ macht Unvollkommenheit zur Kunst.

SUBOPTIMAL	

Old Mr. Jones holds up my test again
Says, “Kid, what’s wrong with your brain?”
Man, that’s just not right…
Yeah, story of my life

They all keep asking, “what’ll you be?”
Guess they’ll find out when they’re watching me

It’s kinda suboptimal – yeah, that’s the word
Not quite perfect, but haven’t you heard?
Suboptimal – I’ll take that call
I don’t need perfect, I like the fall

Lucy’s done with my chaos ways
Says straight up, “you’ll never change”
Sweet girl, but she don’t get
I’m not chasing perfect yet

She says, “this won’t end too well”
I laugh, “guess time will tell”

It’s kinda suboptimal – still, I’m fine
Half off-beat, but the groove is mine
Suboptimal – I love that flaw
Can’t you see it’s my encore?

Now I’m barefoot in the sand
My song’s blowing up across the land
They said, “you’ll never get it right”
Guess they missed the point that night

Still suboptimal – yeah, that’s my style
Never perfect, but worth your while
Call it luck or call it flaws
A genius hides in chaos
Suboptimal
And proud of it all

I’ve been making music and been in bands since I was in school. I’ve always loved watching people enjoy listening, dancing and singing to the music. I feel that music is first and foremost about enjoyment. It should evoke an emotion, whatever the artist is trying to convey. 

My musical tastes are quite eclectic and varied. I tend to enjoy a song rather than a specific group or genre. And I guess this is why what I produce goes along with that ethos of variety 

Recently I’ve felt compelled to focus my time on creativity. Loss and the brevity of life have made me understand life is too short. So here I am. I hope you enjoy!

Listen!, I have alot to say!

I have been transposing music in Black Desert Online for years now, I am taking a break and trying something new!

AI-ASSISTED, multi-genre producer from Australia. I co-write concepts with chatGPT (I use AI mostly sanity check, style guides etc. the motives and core lyrics are my own), guide a Suno pass, then rebuild: swap/overdub parts, arrange, add, remove, mix & master, sound effects etc. 

References run from Level 42 and Mike Oldfield to KLF-era rave, drill, garage to the demoscene, I am not much of a fan of country and that hard core stuff, but everything else I <3

Music as a mirror: stories, satire, ideas, thoughts and feelings, From wit to absurdity, from glitch to groove, every track is an experiment in bending AI into something tangible.

If it makes you happy, then thats all that matters!
