Lyrics:
I misidentified
The one that cared
I am not afraid of the fire
It’s the smoke that kills
You’re entitled
And enraged
Don’t engage in the lies
Where’s the one that cares?
I misidentified
The one that cared
And was deceived by the lies
Don’t believe them
We are blinded 
By the flames
Don’t be afraid of the fire
It’s the smoke that kills
It’s the smoke that kills
It’s the smoke that kills
I misidentified
The one that cared
I misidentified 
The one that cared

Misidentified

words:

I froze at the podium
blinky blinky in my turtle shell
i got the hot wax anemia short circuit
i almost fell
she asked me how can you live without sunlight
we turned our heads and we agreed
you tell me now the weeds we pulled out were stuck in tight
i said the recent rains made them easy to pull
she pulled up in a quick way and rolled down her window
I dropped the flowered bag in there and then she was gone
there is a scrungie on that fish
there is a scrubber on that fish
you are delightful as a wish and I’m glad you’re gone
she asks how can you live without sunlight
we turned our heads and we agreed
frozen at the podium
blinky blinky in my turtle shell

Lyrics:
Say goodbye my love
One more time
Last goodbye
Close your eyes my love
Treasured friend
Near the end
One last sigh
Still you lie
Pain end, dark begin
Bye my love
Say goodbye my love
Dearest friend
It’s the end
Pain end, dark begin
Bye my love
Say goodbye
Say goodbye


Dedicated to Ronnie and Sophie

Escuchar a Low Blows conlleva un viaje a una época lejana donde el descubrimiento de las emociones necesitaba un tiempo de maduración. Un proceso que había que asimilar con los pocos recursos a nuestro alcance en cuestión de acceso.

Y realmente, las emociones hay que digerirlas de forma pausada para que tengan su efecto. Algo parecido ocurre con este nuevo single de Low Blows, un trío peculiar porque sus componentes viven entre Ibiza, Getxo y Mataró aunque afincados en Barcelona, y al que hay escuchar con la calma y atención necesaria como cuando comprábamos los primeros discos, porque así podremos encontrar el detalle.

«Normal» sugiere atmósferas dark que apuntan a la melodía entre guitarras y bajos penetrantes que se ajustan a la voz profunda y determinante de Carlos Vergara, líder del proyecto.

“Normal”, es su nuevo video single, grabado y mezclado por Lluis Cots en Estudi Nautilus y masterizado por Víctor García; el videoclip es también obra de Carlos Vergara y planta una desgarrada secuencia de imágenes corporales que quitan el sueño. La temática de la canción pone en valor la autenticidad y te incita a demarcarte de la cultura de las masas, las apariencias y el influjo de las modas.

Lyrics:
You’ve got a cold embrace
And I’m afraid to see you go
You’ve got a cold embrace
And I know, what I know
You’ve got a sullen face
And I’m afraid you’ve let it show
You’ve got a broken heart
And I know, and I know
You’ve escaped
You’ve got a distant gaze
And I’m afraid to let you go
You’ve got a distant gaze
And I know, what I know
You’ve got a sullen face
And I’m afraid you’ve let it show
You’ve got a broken heart
And I know, and I know
You’ve escaped
You’ve escaped

You've Escaped

Taken from the Album "Resist"
"Resist is a work of love, loss and the mental anguish derived thereof. In it we enter the twilight worlds of lovelorn protagonists, fighting to come to terms with existential wants and needs. We bare witness to the dark and sorrowful, the piteously deluded and the tentatively hopeful in a shadow realm of hopelessness. These lyrical themes form a dark counterpoint to the war siren synths, soaring, yet tortured, vocals and beats that drive harder and colder than an Arctic winter." - Mark E Moon

RESIST

Mark E Moon - Stay [COLD TRANSMISSION MUSIC]

Today, Black Asteroid shares a mesmerizing new single, 'Ashes and Dust feat. ACTORS', and announces a sophomore album, 'Infinite Darkness', which will see its global release on May 3rd, 2024 via Artoffact Records!

The highly-anticipated and truly original crossover record goes where techno has never gone before. Guitars and vocals are featured prominently, alongside a wall of modular synths to create solid machine-driven grooves and atmospheres that coalesce with the live performances – a sound that is uniquely Black Asteroid. Produced over the span of five years, the album features incredible talent, including Ian Astbury of The Cult, ACTORS, Louisahhh, Michele Lamy, Front Line Assembly, Blush Response, and Speedy J.

On today's new track and the collaboration with ACTORS, Bryan Black (aka Black Asteroid) shares: "During Covid, I went back to my love and passion for songs. For vocals. For danger. For soul. I discovered ACTORS around this time, and sent the singer an instrumental I had been picking at for a few years. He sent it back, and with a guitar too!"

Lyrics:
Strange communication
A cryptic vision
A truth untold
Strange communication
A new beginning
An endless road
Lost – forever
Strange communication
An unclear message
The way unknown
Strange communication
A sudden ending
A dead-end road
Lost – forever
Forever

Ghastly and hallucinatory – Last Liasse is a sign of the times, alternative pop record by Helen Island. Within this debut album, the artist captures the saccharine gaze of digital escapism through characteristic filtered high notes, cut-up genres, and processed vocals. Providing a comprehensive overview of Helen Island’s self-distributed initiatives, with the ethos of the Parisian Simple Music Experience collective, the twelve tracks set a solid musical score that resonates with the age to come.

A X6402 collaboration:

STEPAN
TaNezha x Six Four Zero Two

–
THE COLLABORATION
This X6402 Collaboration is with 'TaNezha'  (Tetyana Nizhynska) who is a singer based in Kyiv, Ukraine.
The lyrics were written and sung by TaNezHa, a capella, in the style of a traditional Folk song. 'Six Four Zero Two' created the music, responding emotionally to the story and mood: "I wanted the music to soar and weave fluidly around the constant that is the voice".

THE TRACK
‘Stepan’ is a story about the strength of a young girl whose partner goes off to war and is lost for some time. When the people eventually gather to hail the Cossacks triumphant return, he is not with them. The girl is forlorn and returns home where, she finds him waiting in the courtyard. A joyful return to love, peace and their homeland.

CREDITS:
Lyrics and Vocal: Tetyana Nizhynska.
Music, Instrumentation and Production: Six Four Zero Two.
Design: 6402.

LYRICS:
Translation from Ukrainian.

There, in the meadow at the edge of the forest, a girl was walking,
looking for healing thyme, mint and roses.
She was singing as she walked "I am collecting the potion for Stepan,
so he can stay strong and defeat the enemies".

When she went to the valley she saw Cossacks,
returning home to Nenka (homeland) in a big crowd.
"Oh, you men, you dear fellows, how happy I am to see you.
Where is my beloved Stepan? I yearn to see him".

"Oh my dear, we do not know, he did not follow.
We know not of his fate, we have not seen him".
The sweet girl burst into tears and went home.
“Where have you gone, my Stepan? My eternal love".

"Oh, you dear man, if only you all would come back home.
Let all of our enemies be gone!", the sweet girl cried.
Then, as she entered the yard she saw Stepan,
waiting there, to joyfully meet his beloved girl.

Started as bass groove after going to a Thundercat gig, needed something else so came up with the 11 note repeating figure on guitar which was then doubled on keys to give an almost Steve Reich type effect. 

One to check out start to finish if you have the time, thanks for listening. For the guitar geeks there's a wee solo at the end.

Drums: NI Karriem Riggins.
Bass: Warwick 5-string Corvette through NI Guitar Rig and during the 11 note sequence section sustained notes on NI Monark synth bass.
Guitars: Suhr Custom Classic and Strandberg Salen Jazz through a few instances of NI Guitar Rig. Short solo at the end is the Suhr.
Keys: various NI, Arturia and Spitfire.
Mastering: Ozone 10 Standard.
DAW: Ableton 12.
