4 e and a is about the infinite spaces between. As a classically trained percussionist, Raffa sat in front of a metronome for the majority of their life. And in their mind, they would play with the spaces between those clicks. In especially challenging times, Ryan would attempt to expand and stretch those spaces into forever. Just existing in the between. This record is about these moments (and places) when we are living in those infinite spaces.

That time of intense musical focus was also Ryan's first introduction to an analog synthesizer. As a teenager, their drum teacher was Herb Flower, an incredible human with light beams of creative energy pouring out of him and his musical family at all times. A parent of another student of Mr. Flower’s was an electrical engineer who had recently been laid off during large cutbacks at Carrier, one of the major employers at that time in Syracuse where Raffa grew up. This parent, with their newly acquired free time, hand-built a drum machine, housed in a large wooden cabinet with 8 or so unmarked knobs, and they gave this synthesizer to Mr. Flower. The sound from that machine was glorious. And Mr. Flower, their drum teacher, would turn a few knobs, make a pattern and have me play along with it during rehearsal. These moments were such a gift, and I know those moments are still reverberating today. Raffa thinks about that time of experimentation, of exploration, of shared love of sound and music as a place that they can go to, a place we can all go to, whenever we choose.

Damn. That’s pretty suspicious.
You’re the man, feeding the fishes.
When I got gas in the tank I head to the city.
I don’t wanna look back, I just wanna look pretty.
I just want to look pretty.

And you, you ask for a pay cheque,
Well this month maybe I, I just couldn’t make it.
Cos you’re the man in black, you think you own me,
But as a matter of fact you barely know me,
Oh thou most holy.

I could have got there faster,
I could have found the answer,
But I don’t have the answer,
No I don’t have the answer.

Damn. That’s pretty suspicious
You’re the man, preying on the fishes.
When I got gas in the tank I head to the city
I don’t wanna look back, I just wanna look pretty
I just wanna look ...
Pretty suspicious.

Mesdames, Damoiseau, Messieurs, Demoiselles et autres Gueux (c'est mes préférés) 
J'ai l'immense bonheur de vous présenter "Cool is Watching You"!!
Le Nouvel EP de M'Z - la version "concept en musique" de mes travaux de composition.
C'est une critique du cool social par le cool musical...

Dans cet album je m'exerce à adopter un positionnement musical "cool" et souhaite mettre en perspective les limites de cette 'posture', qu'on s'impose, socialement nous même, plus ou moins volontairement et que les réseaux sociaux favorisent largement. 
Posture qui, semble bien plus nous nuire que nous servir. 
"Cool is Watching You" est aussi un point de rencontre en musique entre Orwell et Huxley qui espère guérir le cool par le cool.

7 morceaux que je définirai plus en détails avec des mots dans les jours à suivre, pour favoriser la transe, en attendant je vous laisse le découvrir en sons avec les seuls gros titres comme pistes.

Je remercie Anesthetize Productions et Guillaume Beringer
De m'aider à la diffusion de cet album, n'hésitez pas à les suivre et allez découvrir les divers travaux qu'ils défendent.

Je remercie ma femme Sam Clou qui m'offre un environnement tellement gorgé d'amour, que je peux avoir le loisir de faire toutes mes conneries et qui m'aide avec ces mots ces artefacts et sa présence à encaisser tous les chocs.

Je remercie Pedro Coelho pour m'avoir accompagné avec grand brio sur le morceau Palais plastique et je vous conseille de le suivre également c'est un excellent guitariste et musicien et une très belle personne.

Je remercie Sociopark et Steph Artaud Films #dirtinthewind et tout le collectif #DIRTINTHEWIND avec qui on s'octroie des espaces de réflexions salvateurs pour théoriser sur la place de l'Art dans une société a la dérive et de permettre de donner corps a une véritable notion de coopération et de solidarité.

Je remercie les familles, la physique, comme celle de coeur qui sont pour chacune des particules qui composent cet ensemble, des phares quand je suis dans les ténèbres, qui me guident même en silence. 
Du panache quand je suis dans l'adversité et qui m'aident a me confronter au monde. 
Un regard chaleureux quand ma critique s'attaque au moi et le gèle sur place.
Un espace ou nos folies sont amies, jouent, s'expriment et ne se jugent pas outre mesure.
Et bien d'autres angles dont chacun pourraient définir une des facette d'un amour violet du nil

Merci également a la rue on se retrouve a 18h en attendant voilà un cadeau qui j'espère nous donnera de la force !!

Cool is watching you
