  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    A ‘paranoia of sound’ surrounds spoken word performer Johny Brown on this deep dive into the 21st Century splintering of consensus, the explosion of extremist politics, and the havoc wrought by Covid-19.

    Spoken word / sound art / drone

    12" lathe-cut record produced in-house on a valve-driven RCA studio-quality lathe from the rock n’ roll-era. Recorded and mixed to open reel, and mastered to 12” disc by Dog Tunnel, Slurred Words 2 has the feel of an artefact from a more coherent past. It is also a warning to be on guard against misdirection as we drift towards fragmentary and intangible digital futures.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Slurred Words, Volume 2: Detrimental Connotations via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

GHOST DISEASE
Jets are grounded at airports with fuselage broke and fucked
Boats are stranded in harbour with all commerce stuck
The palace has been abandoned it is filled with refugees
The politicians humbled naked on their knees
And the city is now silent and empty
Its office blocks and commerce banks a potential playground for the likes of you and me
Imagine that, the art we’ll make, the fun we’ll have
The freaky joyous return of the temporary autonomous zone
Space to create madness again
All constrained spirits set free
Another chance once more to indulge in the thing that is me
Well a misbegotten soul can but dream
Me and my spook cultural shadow, my ever-present ghost disease
I am aware now of my needs though
I am aware of who I am and this other person I’ve always wanted to be
It is time to leave the past in the past and move towards a fully conscious state
It is 4am
And I am gazing past the clock
To the moon that hangs
Outside my window
Soon it will be dawn
And the moon shall disappear
A piano will fall in the distance
I’ve been here before
I will go to work
Again…
