You Should See Me in a Crown

Gather your horses
Round up your posse
Six shooters ready for the duel at dawn
You bring your heroes
Your corporate structure
And I'll drop an atomic bomb

I'm invisible
untraceable
I'll take down your empire
No defense
I do not exist
I'm the ghost in the wire

And like the emperor
I wear the crown
Your fate is mine now to decide
I put my hand out
Thumb up or down
Do I let you live or die

I'm invisible
untraceable
I'll take down your empire
No defense
I do not exist
I'm the ghost in the wire

I am the Ghost in the wires

Ghost In the Wires

Frankie Vertigo unveils his newest creation, "Desire," featuring the smoky vocals of Carolina. Arriving soon via My Secret Agenda, Vertigo draws us in with his intoxicating sound design. Ghostly arpeggios entwine with Carolina's echo-laden voice as punchy drums provide an irresistible groove. Electrifying ear candy and stylish synth motifs artfully pierce through the haze while a throbbing bassline beefs out the low end, perfectly counterbalancing Carolina's dark yet hypnotising tones. Under Sanctions adds a brighter twist to the moody, after-hours original; working in blissful pads and euphoric arpeggios while maintaining a sinister edge with a disturbing synth-line. Oozing with deft sound design and intricate FX, Frankie Vertigo & Under Sanctions combine forces to provide the perfect recipe for dance-floor domination!

The phrase "perfect is the enemy of good" is an aphorism commonly attributed to Voltaire in 1770, but even he was apparently quoting an Italian proverb that had been around for a while.  It seemed to me to be a good idea for a song.  

Verse 1:
There was that short descriptions on page 195
It wasn’t really what I had intended to describe
And after many hours of working on the text
I gave up and decided that it was hopeless to expect
That I’d ever have the talent to do better than ok
I tossed that novel in the bin, there’s nothing more to say
It will forever go unread, I did the best I could
Perfect is the enemy of good

Chorus:
Perfect is the enemy
Perfect is the enemy
Perfect is the enemy of good
If I could make it better don’t you think I would
If I say it’s not good enough, I hope it's understood
Perfect is the enemy of good

Verse 2:
Our partnership was based on love and trust and fun
But I was undecided, would she ever be the one
Was she what I wanted, was she a perfect fit
A goddess with golden hair and unrivalled wit
A libertine, a temptress, that lovely girl next door
I let her go, so I'd be free for whatever was in store
Learned a lot about loneliness, more than I really should
Perfect is the enemy of good

Bridge:
Nothing’s ever finished
Nothing’s ever done
Always trying, waiting
While the race is being run
Perfect is my enemy
It keeps me playing small
For all that I’ve attempted
There’s not much to show at all

Verse 3:
The novel I was writing spoke of sadness and regret
For a love I’d lost so long ago that I still can’t forget
With this song I’m hoping for some closure on my past
I’m trying hard - I hope I can redeem myself at last
You’ll probably never hear this song - it won’t pass the test
That just allows perfection - I give up on all the rest
But who knows maybe this time I’ll cut myself a break
And sing this song with all it’s flaws - it’s a chance that I should take
Not perfect but maybe the very best I could
Perfect is the enemy of good

Chorus:
Perfect is the enemy
Perfect is the enemy
Perfect is the enemy of good
If I could make it better don’t you think I would
If I say it’s not good enough, I hope it's understood
Perfect is the enemy of good
Perfect is the enemy of good

Perfect is the Enemy of Good

Perfect Is The Enemy

A returning artist to the Particles fold, Dave Leck opens 2024 with a brand-new track as "Opal" shines alongside remixes from Erdi Irmak and Izzet. Debuting on the label in August 2019, "Stardust" was the first of three original EPs that saw Dave Leck hit the ground running. "Primal Connection" followed in early 2020 before "Elevate" completed a trio of outstanding original releases in March 2022. Another two-year gap now sees "Opal" create a mesmerising percussive groove while trademark melodic phrasing sits elegantly above. Immaculately cadenced, open filters provide dancefloor vibrancy that waxes and wanes with subtle intensity. Pausing for breath at the mid-point, the track picks up the pace with a hypnotic arpeggio lighting up the second half atop elements built in earlier movements.

Erdi Irmak is no stranger to Proton catalogues with a raft of original and remix production work on both labels. Over 75 production credits include 7 volumes of the "Hidden Arcadia" series on Proton Music and a raft of original work en route. The full-length album, "You're Either Guilty or Not Guilty" was a Particles highlight in 2014 followed by 2017's "Zero" and remixes for Aeron Aether, Mio & His Flute and Stories Of Others. Now returning to the label for the first time in nearly three years, Erdi Irmak takes "Opal" in a typically majestic direction. Anchored by a heavy beat and vibrant bassline, the cadenced feel of the original is reinterpreted to create a deliciously smooth new groove that intelligently reworks elements from Dave Leck's track. Full of dancefloor energy, spellbinding melodic phrases coruscate over each other in shimmering, interlaced patterns to create an impressive tour de force from the Istanbul-based star.

The final track sees the return of Particles favourite, Izzet. Centred around 2019's "Summer Goodbye", 2021's "Abstract Distortion" and March 2022's "Puncher" EPs, remixes for the likes of Rafa'EL, Pole Folder and Petar Dundov have shown the multiple facets of the Russian's artistry as he now adds to his catalogue with a driving reworking of "Opal". Founded upon a cone-melting sub-bassline, a heavy kick and ticking hi-hats create a heavy-duty groove. Simultaneously, elements from Dave Leck's original are re-envisioned to provide an innovative melodic arrangement. The familiar arpeggio, central to the original makes its presence felt as the track develops, with a delicate tension played out as the melodic and bass phrases pull subtly against each other.

Refracted in multi-coloured arrays with remixes from Erdi Irmak and Izzet, Dave Leck has unearthed another jewel with his "Opal".

This song represents a person who prioritizes money over the girl he loves.

My Unlimited km

I saw you in a dream
i was you and i was me
you were there but you couldnt see
sitting on the couch next to Gigi
I only dream when I sleep next to my baby

so you can thank her for me even being here maybe
I forgive you
but you've lost your privilege lately
40 years in the desert
and we would all do it 
for love
so who am i to judge? 

its of this earth
but who the hell are you?

I am the same
I just got split into two

now ive past the test of trust
and have become one
of this earth
if its all about love
then just take me

Here I am
Here I am
Here I am


Im of this earth baby
youre not gonna save me
i save me

Here I am

Here I am

Of This Earth

oh, that wasn't what i expected (prod. GAXILLIC) 

A Metallica-charged thrash anthem with modern clarity: palm-muted downpicks, galloping bass, and precision double-kick power the verses before a halftime, chant-ready chorus. The lyric sketches survival and rebirth—embers to ignition—while the bridge throws to a triplet-picked solo over modulating riffs. Target for metal and workout editorial, mosh pit moments, and gaming playlists.

(NOTE for RepostEx users: I don't repost AI if I can detect it, and I only repost songs I like or show some level of competence or promise...and they usually don't involve an 808, misogyny, Autotune or singing off key over a prerecorded track...and at my age I'm FAR more interested in quality connections with listeners than going "viral". ALSO: mostly an aging rock/folk/prog/indie guy...can't really judge or really relate to Hip-Hop, Auto-Tune and other more modern styles...sorry.)

John Ludi is a musician/singer-songwriter/cultural relic with a diverse and "arty" array of influences and lyrical interests who was "Indie" before the term even existed. Working outside of the music industry by choice has given Ludi the ability to release songs of a level of lyrical depth that are anathema to the current culture.  Ludi lives off-grid in a yurt in the woods of WI and finds the materialistic priorities of our civilization incredibly wrong and destructive.
