Ojai Ojai Mat Ward...you are a sonic genius. You create such beautiful and innovative music, and I get the sense that the world will catch up one day and hail you as the four-dimensional god that you undoubtedly are.

Thanks so much for sharing this with us mortals. You continue to push worldwide musical boundaries into new and terrifyingly warped directions. Long may you live!

about

A concept future drum n bass album about the media.

The deluxe Bandcamp version comes with two bonus tracks, liner notes, handwritten lyric sheets from the rappers and the M1 piano Ableton sampler instrument I built for track 11. If you want it for free just enter zero as the amount, but be quick as free downloads are limited.

"The artist mashes jungle with future bass to create an entirely unique genre that’s all his own... The music is edgy, daring and new. ★★★★" - CityHub

"We have been listening to the unreleased album and it is stellar." - Audio engineer and investigate journalist Halldór H Bjarnason. Read the interview I did with him about the album before it was released here:

Track Name: You've Got Eight Days (featuring Skase AK)
You've got eight days
You've got eight days to go
(Newsreader): Venezuela's embattled president, Nicolas Maduro, has rejected the European ultimatum that gave him eight days to call new elections. Pressure keeps piling on Maduro, but it appears pretty clear now that he's not going down without a fight.
You've got eight days
You've got eight days to go
(Skase AK): Man, this is Skase AK
No government ever has the right to tell another government
You have eight days to leave
Come on, now
It's for the oil and you don't know
You don't know
Hell
It's for the oil and you don't know
You don't know
Come on
It's for the oil and you don't know
You don't know
Yep
It's for the oil and you don't know
You don't know
Come on
We can stop the war
It's people power
The US can bang on its chest and welcome the last hours
But the internet is essential
And so is your daily speak
Promote the truth and the beast becomes weak
How many more wars do we need
Before we understand the pursuit of oil is only for greed
Come on
This is Skase AK
Now let me give you some truth
Let me give you some documents
Here's your proof, fuck
1965, Dominican Republic
After the aid came
8000 US Marines followed
This is not a game
The real boss of the Lima Group is Mike Pence
And I will not sit on the fence
Juan Guaido was groomed and trained
By the same devils wanting the people to be in chains
And fuck Stratfor
Teaching fake revolutionaries to plan fake revolutions, cos it's war
Come on
John Bolton and McCabe
You want their oil
Be honest instead of creating political puppets
Fuck you Marco Rubio
Stay the fluck out
Represent Florida properly
And then you can wag ya mouth
Maduro is not my friend
He is a politician
He lies daily
For the benefit of his own position
But it's nobody's business
Except the Venezuelan people's
Stay the fuck out Donald Trump
Or you will meet the people
Of Venezuela
You notice how they only ever want to invade and occupy people with fucking oil and fucking... rah
Wake the fuck up!
Peace!
Skase AK
Track Name: Just Ignore Them
Why has BBC News betrayed its own rules of impartiality?
Perhaps the BBC News Foreign Editor might like to respond, please?
Just ignore, ignore them
Just ignore, ignore them
We don't answer to you
Just ignore, ignore them
Just ignore, ignore them
We don't answer to you
Corporate journalists know that their propaganda promoting perpetual war and corporate control of politics cannot withstand rational challenge; they have learned that they lose less credibility by ignoring us
Track Name: The Less Information You Have, The Clearer The Story Is
The less information you have
The clearer the story is
Stick to one source that you know
Stick to one source that you know
Stick to one source that you know
Track Name: They Never See Us As Teachers (featuring MC Munk and Big Naz)
They always see us as a problem
They always see us as a problem to be solved
They never see us as teachers
They always see us as people to be taught

(MC Munk:)
We be living in a world where now the news is interactive
(Big Naz:)
This is the world where shocking news it is attractive
(MC Munk:)
Opinions they are formed and they be influencing the public
(Big Naz:)
Focusing on violence and rhetoric that's ugly
(MC Munk:)
Just stories about tragedy and misery is needed
No positivity and no reports on our achievements
(Big Naz:)
These negative stereotypes are never forgotten
(MC Munk:)
Why's that my brother?
(Big Naz:)
They always see us as a problem

They always see us as a problem
They always see us as a problem to be solved
They never see us as teachers
They always see us as people to be taught

(MC Munk:)
We're teachers
(Big Naz:)
And we're coppers
(MC Munk:)
And we're lawyers
(Big Naz:)
And we're doctors
(MC Munk:)
Successful in every field, we're deadly
They cannot stop us
(Big Naz:)
But we're still a problem to be solved
(MC Munk:)
Our trust in the government and the media's dissolved
(Big Naz:)
The right demonise us
(MC Munk:)
And spread their propaganda
(Big Naz:)
And the left victimise us
(MC Munk:)
And don't really understand us
(Big Naz:)
Then they argue with each other
(MC Munk:)
Over who is wrong or right
(Big Naz:)
Excluded from the conversation
(MC Munk:)
We're still being stereotyped
(Big Naz:)
Yeahhhhh!

They always see us as a problem
They always see us as a problem to be solved
They never see us as teachers
They always see us as people to be taught
Track Name: Two Plus Two Must Equal Seven
She says two plus two is six
Without a lie
He says two plus two is eight
No kidding
So the answer's in between
It's got to be
Two plus two must equal seven
Yeah seven
So the answer's in the middle
It's got to be
Two plus two, it equals seven
Yeah seven
Track Name: I'm Watching You (featuring Lucky Luke)
I'm watching you
What you click
What you love
Yeah

(Lucky Luke:)
They watching what we click on
Aye
Heaven forbid that we click wrong
Thumbs down say what we wanna say
Like a moth to the flame anyway
In real time check it when they switch up
Back by popular demand when they switch up
We all have our different point of views
But it’s not the popular views
So it’s not the news
Can’t hear my voice
Through the crashing waves
Built the sand castle to watch it fade
Never been the one for the clickbait
It’s the chartbeat that’s building up my heart rate
Never asked me to watch my keystrokes
Never asked me to watch my mouse though
See the little arrow on your screen
That’s my middle finger cursing everything
Track Name: Hit You With A Propaganda Blitz
If you're having doubts about me
If you're having second thoughts
If you're looking elsewhere I'll just hit you
(Ziggy Ward:)
Hit you with a propaganda blitz

If you're not believing what I say
Think you're getting over me
If you're looking elsewhere I'll just hit you
(Ziggy Ward:)
Hit you with a propaganda blitz
