song descriptions:

Cracks – Living Room
It’s a lazy afternoon and you find yourself eating a marmalade toast at the train station, waiting to pick up a good old friend. What has changed over time? Will things still be the same?
Teimer – SAndD
A protective suit is covering your body, although you feel it is unnecessary. You are ready to begin. It’s another day’s work. The beehives look brilliant from a distance the way the sun gently glows upon them. You open the top and look inside. A tiny larva starts to pulsate and beat. He’s one of many. Your eyes scatter around lost in a sea of moving larvae. You have become part of their ritual dance.
My Sweet Bomb – Let’s go chopping!
With 10 pieces of bright neon pink bubblegum in your mouth you start to blow an amazing, gigantic bubble. It fills the entire street where you live. Children and adults alike run out into the street and stop to stare. We start to climb on top of it. We jump up & down like on a neon pink trampoline and float up to the deep blue evening sky. You capture a couple midnight stars and I’ll sit on the moon.
Telefonica – Hearing but never understanding
You’re sitting behind the wheel of a futuristic car which seems to be moving extremely fast, but you are not the driver. Has this already happened before? You have no sense of direction or reality at all anymore. Lost and captive, there’s no way back.
Lumenlab – Baila y rie no deprime
Slinky legged machine beings (known as Slink-o-bots) have taken over the world. They have absorbed all air on the planet earth through their rubber-like skin. The collapse of human civilization has forced us into a new existence. To be able to breath, you must cut the skin of the Slink-o-bot and crawl into it’s living body with all the other trapped people inside. We live captured inside their appendages and framework like we normally would work in skyscrapers, we will never have to go outside again.
Wolkenmaschinen Ensemble – Wellen der Liebe
Shiny glossy lips on a wide screen TV tell you about your new environment. You now live in a glass box a division of the government’s isolation and confinement experimentation program. You are here to be protected!
Love of life – Hard attack
Party people, party places. Here you are again feeling rather high. Your eyes dart around the club in a claustrophobic spasm. You are overwhelmed by laughter and flashing lights, glowing plastic-like bodies and the light scent of perfume and sweat filling the smoky air. How hot is it?
Sunstroke Militia – Cold ice first
The candy isle in this grocery store never looked so good. It’s like I’ve never been here before. These packages look amazing with their ecstatic shapes and colors, using words like sweet and irresistible. I am seduced into trying one kind after the other. Many others join me. We are a sweet-toothed army, taking over and gorging ourselves in a consumption of bliss. Overstuffed and happy, we all lay together not able to move and smile. Heaven is sweet, jail isn’t!
Schrumpfschlauch – Strap-ons of mass distraction
Ready for take off? Oh yes it’s time. The lights flash making patterns. So how high do you wanna fly? It’s only straight up from here on out. Above the feathered clouds, we ride in our jet plane. We dive like a bomb almost touching the body of water below, to shoot back up like an exploding volcano. My head is light and starts to fill with hallucinations, like singing natives celebrating their glorious human sacrifice.
Lipstick – Struck by lightning
Shortly after midnight, the idea of an adventure in the warm, wet air has lured you outside. Wandering alone down a dark, deserted street in the pouring rain, you seem to have gone quite a distance from your familiar surroundings. The storm has become drastically worse than when you left. You hastily decide to seek shelter in a nearby cozy looking dive on the corner. The atmosphere is quite lively. As you take a seat at the crowded bar, you notice the people absorbed in their own realities. You’re a one man audience in the film of life.
Voice – Once I met a girl with the sun in her head
The nice and neat handwriting on the mystery package lead me to believe a woman had to be behind all this manipulation. She’s pulling exactly the right strings whoever it might be. The woman who moved in next door just a few weeks ago seemed so innocent and delicate. I had watched her come and go on many occasions. It couldn’t be her, could it? Who could this be? I must be going mad.
Heimatland – Dear Columbus
Walking through the corridors of an empty apartment with wooden floors, you discover a golden key covered in dust lying in the corner. You see the windows have been left wide open. It’s windy. The curtains of white lace gently flow back and forth. You look out into the street. A dead man with a grin on his face stares directly into your eyes as if he’s trying to tell you something.
Les garcons de la plage – Wonderboy
You’ve packed your bag and on your way. Second thoughts race constantly through your head, but things cannot be any different. A new life someway, somehow awaits you. The letter she wrote is still crumpled in your pocket. Time and time again, you take it out looking carefully over every detail. You can’t stop reading it word for word, over & over.
Israel M – Nardaham in problems
Your TV is not working. You change the channel. A blurred image of a man with huge eyes appears on your screen. He’s moving is lips as if he’s talking but you make out anything. His message seems important, it’s as if he needs your help. There’s no way to understand him with the static distorting the picture. The situation drives you to start pacing back & forth in the room. You fall onto the floor in a frenzy and start to chew the electric cable.

a distorted beginning – cicadas buzz in the trees standing on the edge of an industry landscape. breakbeats crawl out to introduce themselves. just the beginning of a very nice surprise.

your hands – uh oh. a serious groove combined with rebellious male/female vocals and playful melodies. meaningful and gorgeous. “how are you gonna change the world?”

sounding it out – lights out, strobo on. melt like lava to these vibes. just take me where you want!

go to b.ed – “sing to me sweet sirens”

st valentine – sunset at the oasis, dip your feet into the luke warm water. Evening stars slowly come out to shine. A satisfying smile blossoms across your face.

all songs written by telafonica: adrian elmer, david hughes, marcella hughes.
rebecca elmer (lyric co-writer your hands).
sarah ledley (clarinet on go to bed).
mastered by florian malicke.

colder – outside, falling snowflakes cover the meadow in white, the wind blows, and piles of glittering ice crystals reunite to tell their secrets.
steamy sounding drums with beautiful chimes, fat bass and whispering male vocals.

different cities – late at night, you stand at a bus station in big city you don’t know. everything seems way too quiet…then some dark looking man, with a hat and serious look, drives up in a black ford 1960 galaxie town sedan and tells you to get in or else…
this whipping snare and hypnotic beat pull you on the dancefloor.

resolver – there’s a whispering in your ear coming from nowhere. you stop and listen, this distraction becomes a delight, unfolding a rhythm, a transparent beat formation. wake up…

vhs duplication blues – you find a video cassette you’d love to copy. on the back there’s a short description about the film but somehow half way through reading it you start to feel dizzy and your vision starts to blur.
breakbeats play with a melody madness, strings and fuzzy sounds.

capture – you are diving, seeing the vast subterraneous surface deep in the ocean for the first time, time stands still. you feel surrounded but you are not afraid and suddenly the voice of your subconscious speaks…what did you say?

all songs written, recorded, mixed by brad crowe at the dubb refinery, ottawa, canada between february and september, 2005.
mastered by ron schneider at mdz studios, berlin.

elyt02 as .zip file: telafonica/lipstick – one & one

lipstick – air is sweet…a sparkling oasis in the middle of a vast desert on a 120 degrees Fahrenheit day…this is where i find myself when i hear air is sweet. soft and tender female vocals from over a crispy driven beat. set up your hammock under the palm trees and enjoy the whispering wind. i can stay forever.

air is sweet – telafonica mix…when atoms explode…this remix is an explosion of excitement! a breakbeat firecracker version of air is sweet.

telafonica – one and one…like a snake charmer hypnotizing his snake out of a basket…with rough and housy elements this song takes a wild twist toward the end! simply seductive, a burner.

one and one – lipstick mix…woah! hold on, gotta listen to that again. very surreal & definitely hypnotic with a building drive. a real tease!
