Happy Bandcamp Friday! I've been listening to a lot of old phonk and chopped & screwed stuff lately, inspiring me to make quick edits of my favorite songs for future shows. This is a particularly good one I thought I'd share. It's free to download, but if you feel like throwing me a buck to help with rent, today the whole payment goes directly to artists!

Keep an eye out for some upcoming livestreams with new art & videos, and hopefully the release of a couple more diverse records I've wanted to share with you in 2022. Follow me on Twitter (https://twitter.com/KaelinBougneit) or join the Subviolet Discord (https://discord.com/invite/PvE3JT5XSD) to stay informed. :D

Much love and stay safe out there <3

Wouldn't You Like To Be A Hoe Too (Zero Tep Flip)

https://zerotep.bandcamp.com/album/i-pray-2-me

If you're a fan, you may already know this as an @mcarchitecture song, however all my future vocal club music will be under this name: Zero Tep. As I continue to explore further fusions of ideas and genres, the lines between them only blur further. New voices are really one polyphonic voice.

Thanks for everyone that enjoyed and encouraged the @mcarchitecture project, including @wormhole-music-group which put out my last single under the name, "Demonstration". Kinda weird to think I've been "rapping" for five years now, though I've also been practicing a lot through my private poetry and my rock project, @psychicsex. There will be more. Plan is: e x p a n d and attack.

--------------------------------

I pray to Me, I pray I stay
I pray I wake up one more day
I pray to Me, I pray it pays
I pray I wake up one more day
Got one more life I might delay
Got one more beat I got to make
I pray to Me, he sends me heat
Sometimes I might forget to eat
And if I die before I wake
I pray I come back from the grave
AND FIND THE PASSWORD TO MY BEATS
AND SET THEM LOOSE INTO THE STREET

I PRAY TO GOD,
I PRAY TO ME
I PRAY TO GOD,
I PRAY TO ME

And if you {_P+)$&#@@# I might just snap
I see you *#@$::}"?% I don't take that
I don't want drugs, I don't want fame
Don't need no fakes
I pray I keep my head on straight
I PRAY I DON'T TAKE LABEL BAIT
And when I wake up I might see
It all came from a prayer to Me

I PRAY TO GOD,
I PRAY TO ME
I PRAY TO GOD,
I PRAY TO ME

I PRAY 2 ME

This shit so profound like damn yall really should stop talking more and think about the greater consequences of your words. In today's essay I will be covering the finer topics of why no one wants to hear you speak.

Basse Parfaite w/Strehlow

Setting this track free is a bittersweet moment. On one hand, it's simply a cover of Chemise's 1982 hit "She Can't Love You." It's a disco and boogie classic, done many times, many ways. I recorded it in November, and kept it around without really knowing what to do with it. I apologize for the shoddy mix (and the lyric I goofed). The cool thing is that as far as I know, a man has never recorded a cover. 

In light of the mass murder in Orlando, I wanted to show support for the people there, and LGBTQ people across the world. When I came out to my parents, I was a sophomore in high school. Even before acknowledging I was gay myself, I was bullied and mistreated into depression and denial. However, the support I received from my friends and family was unconditional and overwhelming.

Many aren't so lucky. Due to religion, politics, stigma, or law, millions of gay people are forced into the shadows, silenced, punished severely, or killed. Even in the United States, a country with a long history of granting unique rights to its citizens, there is still a great gap in equality.

Inside all of us is a capacity for violence. Our species is infamous for it. But in this age, the right sort of violence could destroy us completely. We must begin to construct instead of destroy. Wherever you see hatred, bigotry, or violence, stand up to it. Show that we are all the same frightened, fragile creatures. Show that we are not different at all. 

You can't imagine the good that vocal support does for young gay people and their families. The outpouring of love after this most recent tragedy has been just one example. Rumors of the gunman in Orlando visiting the club he subsequently targeted hint at something more tragic: the confused reaction of someone who was repressed himself. You never know whose life you may be affecting by expressing your support. 

Much love to everyone! Stand up for the dignity of your fellow humans! We are all we have. -K

Yoooo THIS is my baby. SILICON IDOLS is how I wish everyone could hear Zero Tep music. This musical aggression comes from hyperspecific visions of dancefloor utopias: flashing lights, glowing bodies, and cultural contact. It's a love letter to bass-heavy music of all kinds and the places it thrives. SILICON IDOLS is made up of tracks from 2019 and 2020 and most tracks are available individually from my label @subviolet.
