Is it wise - lovin’ somebody?
back to the water we all swim
back to the fire we’re all in
you’ll just have to choose
or you’re bound to lose
kill me while you’ve still got the chance
kill me while you’ve still got the knife in your hand
kill me while you’ve still got the notion runnin’ ‘round in your little head
back to the place where we’ve all been
back to the choir we’re stuck in
you’ll just have to choose
or you’re bound to lose
kill me while you’ve still got the chance
kill me while you’ve still got the knife in your hand
kill me while you’ve still got the notion runnin’ ‘round in your little head

Not a fan of adverts, but I love this worldview.
Security camera clips that make the news usually show bad things, but Coke decided to “look at the world a little differently” in this heartwarming viral video. They found security camera footage from around the world showing happy moments: people stealing kisses instead of possessions, dealing potato chips instead of drugs, and offering car assistance rather than road rage.

I really enjoy this advert.
“You might as well be dead. Seriously, if you always put limits on what you can do, physically or anything else, it’ll spread over into the rest of your life. It’ll spread into your work, into your morality, into your entire being. There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level.”

At the time I wrote this song and the EP it’s a part of, I was doing nothing but working and then going home and pissing the shit out of my roommates because from the time I got home I would stay up into the early morning doing nothing but playing music. The tracks that eventually made it into the 5-song pool that became Hacktivist were part of an untold number of experiments, demos, songs, sounds, notes, notebooks, drawings…
I’m not entirely sure where I’m going with this, but mostly that lately I haven’t felt as connected to most things in my life as I was at the time of this collection’s writing. I still write a lot of music, but not as much as I’d like and not as heavily coupled with a other forms of art, a heavy influx of new ideas, people, events and actions. I know I can do this again, I can do this now - and not this, per se , but an equivalent to it in the time, effort, thought, and inspiration that it took to make it what it is - I’m just either spread too thin or the Universe is having me wait for another idea or group of ideas to come along so I can latch on and ride the beast.
Anyhow, if you’ve got some time, I’d greatly appreciate you giving this a listen and letting me know what you think of it and the other music I’ve made as of late. It’s all extremely varied, so if you happen to not really enjoy the sounds of this one, but do enjoy that bit of something you can just feel from it, jump around my discography a bit and I know you’ll find something you can dig.
That’s a long post.
