movement in a direction (deluxe edition)

♵M╔u𝓃𝓃e╔  - "movement in a direction"

Lyrics:

uh
sometimes, sometimes
i think in my room
i try to hide, just me in my room
my eye still shut, im waking up soon
my high so high
aint coming down soon
the speaker beat, boom
my music cocoon
and they knock three times
they gettin out of tune
and i rhyme my lines
they get an attitude
man my room so chill
3 in the afternoon
shawty dont disturb
my music cocoon
all the notes hit right
my music entice
and i write all night
u see me not quite
music all around
hearing all the different sound
my melody keep on going
i surround me with amounts of
the luxury singing serendipity
peace for eternity
song of highest quality

my music cocoon
my music cocoon
my music cocoon
my music cocoon

one time, two times
a couple more times
i try to hide, just me in my room
my eye still shut
im waking up soon
my high so high
aint coming down soon
my music cocoon
my music cocoon
my music cocoon
my music cocoon


do N O T disturb
i found the four letter word
my love for music absurd
in beats i connect, i heard
reflect on my own, matured
dont chase i attract, allure
in songs im never unsure 
i strip my own soul, rebirth

my music cocoon
just me in my room
my music cocoon
just me in my room

im gonna be a butterfly soon

Cocoon

Lyrics:

this aint no bryson tiller madafuckin love song i dont i dont chase 
wanna keep it real 
tell it to my face
not a drake dont cha call me up
this is not a phase
pull the brakes
imma swerve and flake
end it now today
tell it now tell it tell it now
if you came to play
u say hey
say im on the way
ask me bout my day
pullin up then u pullin up
u ready to play
aint no weekend

but you make me
wanna play ya

aint no player
but you make me
wanna play ya

i aint no player
but you make me
wanna play ya

i aint no player
but you make me
wanna play ya

wanna wanna wanna wanna play


lace berry panties in the air
cherry poppin
with them sneakers
nobody dare to compare
making out while kehlani playin
rhythm and the snare
u can shout whatever
promise you right after i dont care
i dont got to care
after you cause u ms independent
im the highest value u dont given the risky investment
we dont have to argue 
cause we livin in the present
worry no tommorow
cause u aint really consistent
in an instant
——

i swear to god my neighbors know your name
they askin all about you tellin me i shouldnt play ya
baby i know bout it pourin gas into the flame
yuh
love the way i hide it felt alive 
i have no shame yuh

5am and she gone
she dont stay until dawn
i maybe just a pawn
man i love when she use me
and i feel nothing none
just when we come undone
this the game
that we play

aint no player
but you make me
wanna play ya

aint no player
but you make me
wanna play ya


i aint no player
but you make me
wanna play ya

i aint no player
but you make me
wanna play ya

wanna wanna wanna wanna play

Peel Dream Magazine is the musical vehicle for NYC's Joe Stevens, who launched the band in 2018 with the critically acclaimed album "Modern Meta Physic." With it Stevens created a mysterious, liminal tribute to the hazy end of ‘90s dream-pop – a masterful mix of first-class songwriting precision and train-window sonic impressionism that duly found its place on numerous "Best of 2018" lists.

After 18 months of writing and live shows with a shifting cast of band members, Peel Dream are back with "Agitprop Alterna," an album that pushes the group's dreamy, motorik-heavy sound to a deeply melodic and beautifully discordant place. The album pays homage to a strain of mod-ish U.K. pop that spans early My Bloody Valentine and Talulah Gosh, up through early Stereolab, Belle & Sebastian, and even Broadcast. It's also indebted to stateside pop bands that were cut from a similar cloth -- Rocketship, Lilys, Yo La Tengo, and even "Nevermind"-era Nirvana.

Where the creation of "Modern Meta Physic" was a solitary pursuit, "Agitprop Alterna" found Stevens channeling the collaborative spirit of the band's ever-rotating live incarnation in the studio. The album is ultimately defined by the tension of difference: between itself and its predecessor; intertwined male-female vocals; the music's languid dreaminess and concrete sonic immediacy.

Deeply rooted in the Brechtian ideas of art as a tool to spur action, "Agitprop Alterna" deepens the connection between the existential and the interpretive first explored on "Modern Meta Physic," giving the listener space to find their own meaning in shimmering guitars, fuzzed-out synths, and buzzing organ drones. It is a rejection of manipulation in all its forms and a buzzsaw against complacency – soft-focus pop whose clear-cut message is that you get to decide the message. It's a rare trick to agitate without being obvious: perhaps that makes "Agitprop Alterna" the most Peel Dream Magazine-like statement yet.
