MICROAGGRESSIVE (lyric video)
Since Youtube has put my new video on "limited state" I thought i may as well have a go here where speech is less censored, which I hope remains the case.
Even though I mention no specific groups and point out nothing that isnt obvious to anyone with a brain.
I always make music inspired by whatever I happen to be thinking about, and recently, increasingly I see a lot of irritating news and stories about people who may have said something, that some other person or group doesn’t like.
People seem to get thrown under the bus or otherwise denigrated for going against the current accepted narrative given by the media or perhaps other more powerful and nefarious forces.
Microaggression seems to be a phenomenon where people choose to be very upset about minor slights or misunderstandings.
Huge importance is given to a passing comments ,such as “where are you from?” Which used to be a question you would ask a stranger by way of striking up a conversation.
Lots of other nonsense is amplified by fragile insecure people who have issues they want to inflict on the rest of us.
Also the human characteristic of pattern recognition seems to be somewhat taboo, you may notice who is responsible for a certain behaviour, but you better not say it out loud or you become tarred with the “ist” or “phobe” label.
I see things are changing as people become tired of walking on eggshells, so there is still hope !
The Overton window is moving again…it better hurry before we live in Orwells world , or perhaps we already arrived.
I recorded this in the midst of a horrible cold and cough so experimented with some filters and effects more than usual !

The Abandoned Pet Shop
The short story of perhaps a kid discovering a spooky abandoned pet shop.
Inspired by my childhood adventures and imagination, and musically electro and possibly a bit eighties pet shop boys vibes.

Because it seems its becoming so.
Orwellian times we live it , bad is now good, and its a crime to tell the truth about many things ..ukraine, covid, israel..etc..
"Conspiracy theory" is often just truth you arent allowed to speak of.
Things seem a bit .. unsettled and chaotic and dark around the world all at once , my recent new sketches always seem to come out dark and foreboding sounding, perhaps subconsciously expressing how I feel about current events and problems like the attacks on freedom of speech ,things that affect me directly and pretty much everyone else as well.
Any constructive feedback is welcome !!
(I'm teaching myself production.)

SlowTime
Inspired by thoughts of people who are perhaps waiting to be released , kept against their will, and the feeling of tension building contrasted with long periods of uneasy boredom.
I think many people who should be free are experiencing this right now.

Unpersoned (freedom of speech)
UNPERSONED :
Better be careful
What you say
Or we can make you "go away "
ah-ha
Unpersoned.
Don't express a point of view
Unless its the one that's "approved"
ah-ha.
WE get to choose
Because we know what's best for you
We're always watching what you do.
ah-ha.
Unpersoned.
If we have to silence you
Remember it's for " The Common Good "
Ah-ha
We know whats best .

Crying for the Damned
Crying for the Damned
.
I posted this on my youtube where it was flagged as "negative events and imagery" Despite there being no gore or faces or political bias to any side shown in it.
I'm just making a simple and obvious connection between Money and War.
On both sides of any war there are people who are mourning their dead as heroes or martyrs, however,the opposing sides hating each other means their feelings for those people lost are totally opposite.
That’s why I chose this title.
Particularly religious leaders - claiming that their side is the holy one, so those opposing them are “the damned” to suffer in whatever hell their religion describes, when in fact they are all humans, who were loved by someone .
I never set out to make a war themed song, this just sort of happened like this .
The video is a compilation of clips from loads of different sources and at one point some game footage as out of respect I didn’t want to show any actual people.
It’s a visualiser more than an actual video in that sense, just using symbolism to express the music.
