prod me

oooh it'll be hard to let u go but
im tryin to move on and
i know u dont love me so
ill write it in this song
i know that i did like everything wrong
but i tried my best to not see u gone

run n hit the ground i fall so hard
baby tell me why u had to break my heart
know its nothin personal u just played ur part
but i rlly wish that we could just restart
x3

break my heart

infinity

here's a preview of what's to come! i'm planning to record an album of 10 songs and will distribute it intimately to friends. mixing and mastering still need a lot of tweaking thus this is not the very final version of this song. this is a passion project of mine which i've wanted to do ever since and hopefully i'll be able to finish everything and distribute the material around early 2016.

lyrics:
sometimes i can’t ask you why
maybe it’s just a matter of time
why can’t we just talk this out 
but i’d be lying if i said let’s stop

the waves were pulling us together
despite the walls that we’ve built
can’t we just stay a bit longer
until the sun comes up
until i know you a little better

why do these things happen in life
i want you, you want me, but fuck that
i feel like i’m julian and you’re courtney love
“meet me in the bathroom," that’s what she said.

but i mind, it’s true i mind
you’re not trashy, which is why i fear giving in 
‘cause loving you is not part of the plan
        
maybe this is for the best 
timing, circumstances, situations
have a funny way of presenting themselves
we didn’t want to ruin it
but we can’t say we didn’t want it

can i know you a little better?





Until

honey go to sleep
it's getting late
do you intend to wait
for the sun
'cause if you're scared of the dark
you can tell me
and i can hold your hand
til you're dreaming

don't be so scared or i'll be too
i'm only tough when i'm with you

honey go to sleep
it's for your health
be good to yourself
once in a while
and if you shake at the thought of tomorrow
i can hold your hand
til it's alright

don't be so scared or i'll be too
i'm only tough when i'm with you

go to sleep

Lyrics by Mariah Reodica and Paolo Arciga

What am I to do when I want nothing new
And all I wanted was you in different shades of blue

But things don’t go that way
In every shade of grey
And I belong on this side of the sea

We’re tired and all we ever wanted
All we ever needed was to shed a bit of light

What am I to do when I can’t get through to you
Try to paint you off in black when you left me just with shades of blue

Different Shades of Blue (Album Version)

Taste Of Time

Hey Buddy

Happy Cassette Store Day! We’ve decided to celebrate by giving one of our favourite EP’s of recent times a proper physical release, it is of course Comfortably Swell, the debut EP from Brighton brother and sister duo Penelope Isles.

Originally self released on their own Wavey Head label, Comfortably Swell is seven tracks of wonderfully varied melodic beach pop. I often find it quite a struggle to write about music that I love so dearly, but thankfully our pal Ross has already done a pretty great job of describing what makes this release so special.

"Opening slowly with each listen, the way the group engage is in their apparent ease in writing such compelling melodies. Each chorus swells with emotional value; the gentle delivery of their vocals producing the most stirring effect. Lily sings with an innate ability to evoke child-like curiosity, ‘Apple Juice‘ full of wonderment in it’s loose and adventurous moments, ‘The Loop‘ dwells on love’s disorientating nature as guitars sweep and mingle in swelling distortion, while ‘Tea‘ dreams nostalgically of the coast, patters of synth topped with another heart-wrenching chord progression through it’s chorus.

It all builds around an empathetic belief in the reminiscent romance of growing up and it’s influence on what’s happening in the very present. ‘Bad Head‘s introduction is of wishful thinking and a proactive need for change; “I’m trying to act my real self / but I don’t think it’s working.”. A plea for difference and positivity opens the record to the colourful remembrance of youth, ‘Apple Juice‘s comfort and buoyancy in simplicity is the complete antithesis; “I think I’m the better swimmer / after only two weeks” Lily’s lyrics are convivial in their simplest form, yet are penned by an irrepressible melancholy, trying to hold onto the happiest of memories that allow at least a moment of escape, “grab your bucket and spade / before the memory fades“. "

If it had been left to me I would’ve just gone for the much less eloquent description of “Comfortably Swell is the sound of your favourite Beach House and Deerhunter records spinning round inside a tumble dryer full of glitter and that one good Melody’s Echo Chamber album.

As anyone who arrived early at our Label Mates party in March or our 6th Birthday in August will attest, live, these songs take on a new form as they soar and swell. Despite their early billing both times, I think I can honestly say both times they have been my favourite band I’ve seen that day. We’re really excited for whatever they come up with next, but in the meantime we thought giving this amazing EP a bit more attention served as a nice stick in the ground.

Comfortably Swell

gloomy song released on a gloomy day 

featuring one of my fav artists: the hidden shelf
https://minjikongmusic.bandcamp.com/

guitars and vocals: high sunn (justin cheromiah)
drums and vocals: the hidden shelf (minji kong)


LYRICS: 
intro x2

verse (my verse) 
- looking out the window
- faces buried by the pillow 
- holding my breath in
- oh the line is so thin
- the terrors speak loud
- i dont wanna hear this sound
- it haunts me everyday
- that you're slipping away

chorus
- our days could reach the end
- the idea seems to suspend
- dropping at any moment 
- will the words be spoken

intro x2

verse (minji) x8
- do you hear them falling down
- it used to be pleasant but now i block the sound
- my head hurts from these thunderous shouts
- mmhm
- our journal soaked in cold raindrops
- words of promises disappear with their touch
- and so does the faith in us
- mmhm

chorus 

intro x2

raindrops (feat. the hidden shelf)

another tale of love
more like a lack there of
I hadn't done enough
the time again has come
the way I think of how we
have just parted our ways
at the end of the day
I didn't make a move on you
so I'll have to move on from you

don't really have a clue
the space I'll move on to
maybe the odds will cue
my number rolls to you
but chances are we will change
and the changes we've made
classify us as strange
by then I'll have moved on from you
unless I make a move on you
a move to start something new

Move On

Don't pretend to be my friend
Don't hurt me 
Pleased to meet kind sir
Assert thee 
Wait for ever on the phone 
Distracting Jeeves

Can we meet half way
Will you give me the time of day

I wouldn't stab you in the back of a pickup truck
I wouldn't talk behind your back you vindictive fuck

This is not fun and games
There is no one to blame

Distracting Jeeves

self control
