You Got It Goin On

I Am Man Insanity Edition

My Love Is Electric

Resonance (album version)

The Great Insanity and Will Anderson (white robot) present
an animated musical metamorphisis 'Another Day'.

Another Day is a multi award winning music video extravaganza.
Nominated for the experimental section of the prestigious 2011 Scottish BAFTA awards. 
FLIP animation awards winner, experimental section, same year. 

Its an amalgamation of minds and creativity. 
Drawing from the inspiration of the music, the song was born. 
Drawing from the inspiration of the song, the animation manifested.  

Its about the drudgery and futility of day after day life and the unshifting 
overwhelming feeling that there is no other way out, except for the 'easy' way
out, except that when you are in that moment of choosing a way out (i.e. jumping from 
a tall building) you find its not so easy.

There is no other more fundamental basic human right than self-determination.
One's own choice to live or die. Why must one suffer? Why prolong a person's suffering 
for the sake of another, or the state, or the fear of divine judgement.
Another Day is about being hyper aware of this choice.

Its about the struggle and sickness that has become the world's leading pandemic, depression.
The all consuming weight on one's shoulders and the devestaing realisation that 
change is an empty hope that will not come in one's lifetime.
Its about the awareness of what is wrong individually and globally, and the desperation
and powerlessness of not being able to change the conditions and environment which cause it
(i.e. 'the system'), and ultimately taking it all too personally.

The music is a grinding, industrial, electronic epic monster, set against a more conventional human
touch with multi tracked vocals (with elements of Scottish rap) and a composed orchestral score.
The song reaches a crescendo and is met with a sample from the 1976 satirical film, Network. 
You have probably never heard anything like it in any imagined genre.

A Moment in Time

Don't want to rinse and repeat the same mistakes again. This is a fitting place to echo that sentence. Or a shitting place, whichever you feel more appropriate. The artwork is the Berlin wall. Rinsing, urinals, same shit over and over. 

Rinse & Repeat

For people who never change no matter what they do in life, there is nothing learnt from their own mistakes and nothing ever changes...

Faces (Album Version)

please take a moment to sit back and darken down your room, mood and mind.

Darken Down

A demo we made for something that we helped make music and sound design for. Nope, I will say no more, yet...

Time is a Killer Demo

Our music is about -
Inner truths and social dangers.
Tangled webs of human deceit that cut too close to home.
Love and passion for all things creative.
Old habits dying hard etched into our faces from years of pain, progress and doubt.
Infliction from the self and human nature. 
Growling and angry with electrical menace.
The transformation and reflection that comes from hope and redemption.
The entaglement of life and death in a desensitised western world. 
Mundane days that mesh into a routine that may as well be a slow death.
Hate for all things contained,
Love for all things set free.
Lost feelings and people who come and go.
Emotionally discharged from what is right or wrong, fair or unjust.
Trivial lives in our own self-centred spiritual universe.
The ride to be, the ride that has been.
Influenced and influential.
Urging others to create, maintain and fulfill their dreams.
Or to at least try, without letting those who would stand in your way in or win.
Drawing out feelings people are not use to or have long suppressed.
Creating deflection or attraction.
The understanding of ones imagination, soulful illusions and downright confusions.
Draining yet persuading you to listen again,
to take what you can and learn about your boundaries, achievements and aspirations.
Encouraging you away from servitude and slavery and the credit system.
To stretch yourself ever thinly over what little an unsustainable and superficial modern society can offer.
A communication of the culmination of the human condition
and what it is to exist on earth on every conceivable level. 
An expedition into the depths of ones consciousness to study the sickness that eats at it.
Doubting and fearful.
Its a weight that must be carried and processed and thrown back into the midst as concern and vanity would have it,
there is no other way.
a vent, a dream, a best guess.
There is hope and wisdom and every chance every day to redeem oneself.
This is our attempt to wash our hands clean,
to set the record straight and to encourage change.
To question who would lead us and why and if it is no longer required.
It is vision but it is no conclusion.
A learning experience,
a blip in time and space. 
(please buy it)
