JOHN FOXX & JORI HULKKONEN - EVANGELINE (DAVID LYNCH REMIX)

The city has been taken over by the corrupt and powerful. The streets run riot with violent criminals. Only one Police force can potentially stop the city's devastation. Can they do it or will they run OUT OF TIME!?!?

Out of Time

Be With Me 2009

CROW FREESTYLE (prod slite)

As a reference to the rolling paper brand of the same name, Jake Major uses 'Blazy Suzan' as a metaphor for a person one has a euphoric connection with.
This idea is tied in with altered consciousness and how this can enhance one's connections with others, or possibly diminish them.
'Blazy Suzan' could be a real person one values deeply, or it could be an imagined, ideal character in one's head, who does not exist in the real world, but is still endlessly searched for, despite the futility of the matter, inadvertently plunging them into a lonelier state.
Think of a modernised 'Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds' in terms of the chorus and psychedelic production techniques, plus The Weeknd and Gesaffelstein's collaborative works in terms of overall sound, and you're envisaging 'Blazy Suzan' pretty well. The song has a luscious summer vibe going on, make sure you blast it in the blazing sun!
Jake collaborated with fellow upcoming Newcastle upon Tyne artist Kaycee on this track, incorporating lead vocal verses and backing vocals from him to further the genre-spanning nature of the song. Kaycee's styles range from Afro-soul, to rap, to jazz, so Major was thrilled to have him on board to spice up the tune.

Lyrics:

The way she looks into me deeply,
The way she understands my soul,
The way she makes me feel content with myself,
The way she understands I'm healing

Blazy Suzan,
You make me feel high in the sky

Out in the universe,
Stepping out hope it works,
Take me to another place,
Hot like LA,
Luck and I don't separate,
We're blazy, hop on the wave,
She wanna drive away,
Out in the sunset,
I don't wanna know

We're drifting away,
We're drifting away,
Out of the place,
I'm making it rain,
Carrying pain,
We're drifting away,
We're drifting so far away,
The way that you make me think about who I am,
In my heart, I carry the man,
The weight on my shoulders,
Burning,
Yeah, it's burning,
Yeah, it's burning bight,
Yeah, it's burning bright,
She sees inside,
She sees beyond the sheet of one way glass

Where did you go?

Blazy Suzan

Tame Impala - The Less I Know The Better Vinyl

Whipped this up in about 2 hours cause I wanted to see how it sounded like, pretty good if you ask me. The only song that's a bit effy is Past life but it's not that noticeable (or maybe it is[ it still sounds great is what I mean]).

Summary:

The remarkable story of rising to the top of the music charts, a second act as a tech pioneer, and the sustaining power of creativity and art.

Thomas Dolby's hit songs "She Blinded Me with Science" and "Hyperactive!" catapulted him to international fame in the early '80s. A pioneer of New Wave and Electronica, Thomas combined a love for invention with a passion for music, and the result was a new sound that defined an era of revolutionary music. But as record company politics overshadow the joy of performing, Thomas finds a surprising second act.

Starting out in a rat-infested London bedsit, a teenage Thomas Dolby stacks boxes by day at the grocery and tinkers with a homemade synthesizer at night while catching the Police at a local dive bar, swinging by the pub to see the unknown Elvis Costello, and starting the weekend with a Clash show at a small nightclub. London on the eve of the 1980s is a hotbed for music and culture, and a new sound is beginning to take shape, merging technology with the musical energy of punk rock. Thomas plays keyboards in other bands' shows and, with a bit of luck, finds his own style, quickly establishing himself on the scene and recording breakout hits that take radio, MTV, and dance clubs by storm. The world is now his oyster, and sold out arenas, world tours, even a friendship with Michael Jackson become the fabric of his life.

But as the record industry flounders and disillusionment sets in, Thomas turns his attention to Hollywood. Scoring films and computer games eventually leads him to Silicon Valley and a software start-up that turns up the volume on the digital music revolution. His company barely survives the dot-com bubble, but finally even the mavericks at Apple, Microsoft, Netscape, and Nokia see the light. By 2005 two thirds of the world's mobile phones embed his Beatnik software. Life at the zenith of a tech empire proves to be just as full of big personalities, battling egos, and roller-coaster success as his days spent at the top of the charts.

The Speed of Sound is the story of an extraordinary man living an extraordinary life, a single-handed quest to make peace between art and the digital world.

Let Me Be Your Fantasy EP

Let Me Be Your Fantasy

Tame Impala - Let It Happen

Jake Major is a young, emerging artist from Newcastle upon Tyne, England. He channels 1980s synth influences from Jean-Michel Jarre, Giorgio Moroder, Vangelis, John Foxx and more, into a modern, totally unique blend of a mass of electronic genres and styles, whilst still evoking this unexplainable nostalgic sound that, if you're Jake's age, reminds you of a past you never knew, and then blasts you into the retrospective vision of the future that was so prevalent in pop culture back then. In live situations, Jake's synthesizers, one of those being a keytar, mannerisms, persona, and aesthetic, thoroughly project the 1980s, whilst simultaneously evoking glimpses into the future we all imagined.
