I LIKE TURTLES (§AFE MASHUP)

Another song written by Paul Cook (Sade) and his Uncle Alistair Cook from the City of Hull, England. Paul sang the song with his Uncle on backing vocals. Paul created all the music parts on his trusty Korg M1 at the time of recording and produced the track in the Hull studio. Somewhere on Hedon Road,Hull? Alistair came up with the Lyrics and melody for the song. Again a battled ensued as to who was going to sing the lead vocal :) https://elasticstage.com/paulanthonycook

§AFE & §ØUND is the phoenix that rose from a life that should’ve broken her.

Born from heartbreak, addiction, grief, late-night prayers, and the kind of pain that rewires a soul, she didn’t step into music because it was easy — she stepped into it because it was the one thing that kept her alive. Music killed her and saved her. It tore her apart and stitched her back together. It gave her something no person ever could: a reason to stay.

This isn’t just an artist project.
It’s a story of rising.
A reminder that you can lose everything and still become something beautiful.
A heartbeat for the ones still trying.

I’m here to make people feel again — to remind them they’re not alone, and to leave the world a little better than I found it.

I started creating at 31 with nothing but a laptop, a pair of headphones, and a heart that refused to quit. No mentor. No roadmap. No “perfect conditions.” I learned the hard way — pounding on buttons, breaking DAWs, learning music theory on a cheap piano, trying to find a sound that felt like home. A sound that felt like survival.
