Spin out daemons
outsider angels
tantra and glamour
cracks in the stone
Vanishing eternal tomorrow
Asphalt wants the earth
they hide underground
tearing stars
out of fashion
Know your place
Angel wish
All the dead guys
haunting this room
scars frame
her fatalistic grace
Eternal undoing reflection
Vanishing eternal tomorrow
Skylines play games
with the shadows
tantra and glamour
spin out daemons
stars out of fashion
Know your place
Angel wish

Hang on circle
movement
did you see it
fade away
This line turns
out to be
on diagonal
off parallel
Figure it turning
curving
light-burn stripes
react
Make out
stretch of chance
new designs
changing space
Reveal
Reflect
monochrome silhouette
asymmetry plays out
Hang in circle
movement
on diagonal
off parallel

Hey Shungite
the meteorite kid
you’re so deep
you made your own history
do you wanna go somewhere
somewhere way out
you’re staring me out!
smash a window
like a ritual
electromagnetic field
can we go on a journey
in outer space
Hey Shungite

Buy a ticket for astral projection something shiny
like a trickster flood of fuchsia balance and a woman
with moony headgear sun drops this way and that
Z i g Z a g s
You tell me they’re Easter Island heads well I see
five leaf clovers on citrine geometry turn a corner
mysterious aqua maniacs spiral but edgy these days
Z i g Z a g s
I refuse to say the word god
scary frangipani fathom it out flat-earthers
the queen of swords got carried away
zig zag mechanism just when you think
gimme your October ammonite

Full Body Ghost

Skeletal abandon arachnid burlesque
adornment and primal finesse
dust has a story
switch on switch off vision
seen on velvet
blink
now denim
scene on fire
seen to freeze
memory distorting the light
as ghost lets go
switch on switch off vision scene on fire seen to freeze

Jump the maze
make-up artist
card number 79
ask the occupation question
and she says, “I do human”
she carries face paint
in a see through bag
graffiti kiss off
blood fruit pout
screaming la lune
Thursday’s girl is an arrow
aiming her honey gun
so not now, babe
I’m hanging out with penny royalty
sweet dreams little mystery
Chase me
escapism rap
cover her tracks
Vixy Arcana
the only excuse for orange
nomad on an island
she’s a bird
a fan tail’d shapeshifter
arch lemonade
slow down like that
and you’ll fall out the sky
and I feel like
I feel like
I’m wearing a storm
of geisha panache
lotus street flowers
as black swans glide by
That frequency told me
to go to the edge
dancing
in a graphic novel story
call that a flag
I call it a T-shirt
can we live again
in pink, black ‘n’ yellow
Vixy Arcana
low priestess of the juice bar
sucking tannis root crush
through bamboo
she’s tipsy with trinkets
just like a Wodaabe
twist of a pin-up corn dolly
taking them on
for pop shots

Aerial eyes
vivid as you like
flaring the rays
Lucid eyes
disarm as you like
blades of rain
Imagination eyes
flash as you like
living the neon
Silver spy craze

Shadows flashing fast in every direction then slow in reverse. The taste of clay and chalk. Like the addiction to oblivion in a game of solitaire with sanity and a voyeur. Cut me out of your trailback

MAP 71 Brighton, UK
Hypnotic drum rhythms build an environment for stories told by a restless observer. Ritual pulses, angular grooves and metallic clatter woven with a dialogue of Pagan surrealism, existential social comment and abstract sparse verse. Map 71 make haunting, darkly engaging music which is still danceable. Based in Brighton, Lisa Jayne (words/voice) and Andy Pyne (drums/synths) became Map 71 in 2013. ... more

Amazing split release featuring Map 71 (stream-of-consciousness drums, instant poetry, intuitive electronics) and Stillsuit (experimental noise rock with punk politics)

Brain-frying psyche-kraut-noise improv, but with elements of dubbed-out spaciousness. Hints of Lightning Bolt, Black Dice, Sightings, Heldon, Fushitsusha...

Full Fracture EP
by Ugly Animal
Jay-walking drums steer round obstinate post-punk percussion while the electronics both over-heat and under-heat, hints of early Cabaret Voltaire, On-U-Sound, Liquid Liquid etc etc.

Two punishing (in a good way!) side-long pieces that explore the shadows of drone, industrial music, and dark ambient.
