Hold The Sugar

Stay

Codify depicts the gradual loss of self and identity; the control that we have over our own decisions, choices and lives ultimately. It speaks to how the sort of tech based society that we live in is not even hiding the fact that it's manipulating and controlling representation of ourselves and what we should find important so that our own autonomy is blatantly and unashamedly diminished.

Codify, 
Codify,
my decisions,
so I may not, I do not, 
rely, 
on myself, 
integrity, 
my breath, 
judgment, 
my breath,

pick the through the patterns, flick,
away, 
irrelevance, experiment,

potential, 
you may crawl, through,
the intimate, 

fought tongue hiding,
no longer, 
beneath, 
the flower,
you have the power,

knowledge, 

penetrate, 
once private
disregard, 

intuition, 

please do

A dark but glorious tale of the emotional dangers of seeking new love too soon.

LYRICS

You should see the lights this evening
But you won’t know what I mean
I’m not stopping at the crossroad
Signals my side they all on green
Getting over you was so hard
Maybe it’s all a little soon
City moves in tighter spaces
This is what I gotta do

I’m wasting my time
If I can’t get you
Out of my mind

I’m here to dance with a beautiful stranger
Here to dance in a beautiful world
I’m here to dance with a beautiful stranger
Here to dance in beautiful world

Hear the sound get in closer
Fantasies are kicking in
Bass is up and shaking the body
Join the crowd’s adrenaline

And these are the signs
That I will get you
Out of my mind

I’m here to dance with a beautiful stranger
Here to dance in a beautiful world
I’m here to dance with a beautiful stranger
Here to dance in a beautiful world

I’m here to dance with a beautiful stranger 
Here to dance in a beautiful world
I'm well aware of the emotional danger
Here’s to dance in a beautiful world

Beautiful Stranger (Beautiful World)

‘Ambition Is Your Friend’ is the fourth single to be taken from the upcoming twelve track album ‘Ticking Haze’ landing in March 2025. It was a firm favourite at a recent Bandcamp listening party - jangling guitars likened to R.E.M at their catchiest, soaring layered vocals, and lyrics that encourage ambition as a quality we can all chase if we choose to.

Ambition is Your Friend

Gutter Priestess

Trash Classic

Higher Than High (Release Date 11th April)

This track encapsulates the endless times I have been haunted by sleep paralysis. I've often woken up to a lifeless body, unable to move, speak or scream combined with the sensation that something horrible and otherworldly is lurking over me.
On occasions the room has turned blood red and I've felt like I've been dragged down the side of my bed. Or, I've seen shadow-like figures in the crevices of my room.
When it happens I feel this force trying to pull me back into a slumber, however I fear that if I fall back to sleep I will die and so I just try to keep calm and stay awake.
Sometimes I have to get into bed with my mum because of how terrified I am, which is a bit embarrassing to admit to at 25 years old...

We wait and see how it goes by Nova J

(Ooh-ooh, ahhh, ahhh, ahhh)

How do kids connect these days?
When screens are always in the way?
What’s the point of outdoor play
When you swipe the sun away?

Glad I grew up without the net
Millennial child with some regrets 
I was young n’ dumb without SnapChat
Nude selfies, there was none of that!

(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
We wait and see how it goes
(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
Soak up the sun, roll down the windows 
(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
You never really know
(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
So we wait and see how it goes

Library cards and DVDs
Monty Python, midnight cheese
Pizza’s hot, ice cream pops
Two-for-one at the local shop

Nostalgia, yes. I messed up too.
When it comes to regrets I’ve paid my dues.
Demons came, I shared my room
20 years of impending doom

(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
We wait and see how it goes
(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
Chasing highs, crashing lows
(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
You never really know
(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
So we wait and see how it goes

I used to stay up high all nights 
Now I sleep and wake up nice
Used to play with thieves and tricks
Now I crave my baby’s kiss

I’ve been a mess, I’ve played the fool
But all my scars became my tools
Every failure, every mistake
Built the life I have today

(Oh today)
Today is a gift 
(Oh today)
That’s why they call it
(Oh today)
The present 
I live in the now
(Oh today)
Oh, who knows what tomorrow will bring?
(Oh today)
But today it’s time to sing!

(Laaaa la la laaaaa la la laaaa la la laaaa la la laaaa la la laaaaa Laaaa la la laaaaa la la laaaa la la laaaa la la laaaa la la laaaaa
Laaaa la la laaaaa la la laaaa la la laaaa la la laaaa la la laaaaa)

I built a home
(Don’t wanna burn it down)
I found some peace
(Don’t wanna lose it now)
I rebuilt me
(Don’t wanna fade away)
So I keep trying today
(Yeah, I keep trying today)

(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
We wait and see how it goes
(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
Yeah, we wait and see how it goes
(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
You never really know
(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
So we wait and see how it goes
(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
We wait and see how it goes
(Ooh-ooh, la-la, ohhh)
Yeah, we wait and see how it goes

We wait and see how it goes

After turning heads with their Pisces EP, Archil & Leon are back with “I See”, a vibrant new
single bursting with energy, warmth, and optimism.

A soulful track with a forward-looking spirit, “I See” blends crisp drums, a groovy bassline,
and sunlit vocals with the signature textures of Archil & Leon’s unique homemade instruments.
The result is a warm, upbeat sound with surreal undertones — an uplifting anthem for
uncertain times.

As always, the duo blurs the lines between electronic innovation and heartfelt songwriting. “I
See” captures the feeling of hope and clarity breaking through chaos, continuing Archil &
Leon’s exploration of human emotion through imaginative sound design.

Following the dreamy tones of ‘Pisces’, this new single shows another side of Archil & Leon’s
sound: fresh, bright, and forward-looking — while still staying true to their experimental and
creative spirit."

I See
