Building an Ocean:

I’m Building an Ocean 
in the corner of your eyes. 

The Forest is under water now, 
as we idly slip on by. 
The rose’s new host is Divine. 
Confined by 
your hindsight,
does not mean anything 
if you cannot look inside. 
We’ve already swallowed the hook 
that you used to hang your prom dress on, 
and I’m wondering, 
what took you so long 
to reel us all the way in?
Intrinsic value of what you can pull out, 
in regards to what you’re willing to give.

Is that what this whole life’s about?
  
Directionless progression:
this dexterous projectionist.
Un-aimed apples fall so much faster, 
with daft understanding. 
Branded a wounded soldier, stranded, 
land locked, and empty handed. 
These candid distorted images remain 
locked within these rusty crooked picture frames. 
Because anyone can play these shameless games, 
we’ve got twenty-one guns, but no names. 
Too many open casket masses have passed by virgin eyes.
The cannon blast’s “crack” masks the shrill sound of urgent cries. 
The Virgin dies,
diagnosis: suicide, 
and the verdict lies 
within a pair of dice.
Oh Christ, 
this Paradise is sinking under shrinking ice…
And there’s a doomsday eviction notice nailed to my chest,
it says, “You have six days to vacate and the seventh to rest.” 
I’m feeling pressed for time, 
trying to press rewind, 
and address the situation from a fresh state of mind. 
Like back before the plague of lying 
infected our kind 
and made us all more susceptible to step out of line. 
All these signs shift swiftly.
The situation’s sticky, 
but I don’t believe in pity, 
so don’t let me drown quickly. 
Please.

Don’t let me drown so quickly.
Please.

Let’s take this thing it higher. 

Anyone familiar with the Pimps of Joytime live experience knows the feeling—it’s that moment when a deep bluesy groove morphs into a full-on EDM explosion, or the sensation when the wide-eyed audience collectively elevates in sync with the band’s irresistible energy.

On Jukestone Paradise, the Pimps of Joytime raise the bar with swagger to spare, crafting ten cohesive songs that ring out like the soundtrack for a ride through the diverse Brooklyn neighborhood where their sound materialized.  Pulling from lead guitarist and singer Brian J’s deep discography of influences, the creation of Jukestone Paradise began a decade ago, when he penned anthems like “Sky” and “Freedom Dancer,” all the way up to the album’s studio recording sessions.

You might accurately call the Pimps of Joytime a ‘post-genre’ band; they’re a group whose sound—even within a single song—mirrors the diversity of our era’s musical tastes. “It’s a sonic tapestry that’s representative of this time and place that we live in,” says Brian J. 

That’s where the Pimps excel, by mashing up ‘70s funk tones with modern dance beats, mixed with original samples creating their mosaic sound. For listeners weary of today’s DJ culture but eager to dance with abandon, the Pimps of Joytime are the antidote. 

“At our core, the Pimps of Joytime are not just dance music,” says Brian J of the band’s three-part harmony attack. “My first vocal mentor was a doo-wop singer, so I have a long-time love affair with vocal harmonies.”

With the release of Jukestone Paradise, the band makes official their solid touring lineup, featuring dual female vocalists and percussionists Mayteana Morales and Cole WilliamsX. And they’re hitting the road hard, continuing a constant touring schedule that’s already left prominent sets at festivals like Voodoo, Outside Lands, Bonnaroo and High Sierra in their wake.

Behind the frontlines are bassist/keyboardist David Bailis and drummer John Staten, forming the rhythmic backbone of the Pimps’ audible collage. And for Jukestone Paradise, they called in a few friends to lend their talents, including Ivan Neville, who lends New Orleans flavor to “Sky,” and Rubblebucket’s Alex Toth, who co-wrote the quirky and infectious “Dance Cardia.” 

Just as Brooklyn has changed since the Pimps started, so has the band’s sound. But as Williamsburg gentrifies, the Pimps of Joytime’s diverse evolution keeps the neighborhood’s spirit alive. That spirit goes into the Pimps’ pot, over a soulful roux of rhythm and groove.
