Rating: The beauty of machines is that you can do whatever the heck you want with them, if you know how to push them to the limit. Dj Shadow has Valfrutta as a last name, there isn’t a pink grapefruit that can withstand him, he squeezes relentlessly.
Of course, always in the same glass, the juice can get a bit tiresome.
That’s why Valfrutta is in cahoots with James Lavelle, aka Pozzi Ginori, who, quietly, has a ton of glasses and jars.
There's the Mike D model, there’s the Richard Ashcroft model, there’s the Tommaso what a pain model, in short, he’s got a ton.
In the morning, we’re always hungry, but, in the summer, there are usually wild nights, and in the morning, you always wake up with a different craving. But Valfrutta & Pozzi Ginori are there just for that, their motto is: “tell me whatchuwant, and grab it on the go”, they’re real jokesters.
Yesterday you got drunk, and in the peak of your buzz, you saw Concetta giving it to Gianpy, while you’ve been dry for two years; it bothered you, you’re sad, life sucks, you want to die? No problem, Valfrutta hits you with a bitter honey juice beatNONbeat, and PozziGinori pours it into the Tommaso what a pain, here you go, get bummed with Rabbit in your Headlights.
Yesterday you spent the whole evening building little walls with Jeppo the quick and as it turns out his woman slept with you; You’re happy, you’ve always disliked Jeppo the quick, so drum n bass juice in Mike D cups, here you go, now you can step out with the face of someone who knows the ropes, blast The Knock.
The juice doesn’t count and neither does the glass, they’re complementary, because you don't drink from the bottle, it goes down wrong.
Too obsessive beats mummify your scrotum, if not tempered by the voice of a PozziFriend. You can hear the PozziFriends in their albums, but not with Dj Shadow's fruit. In short, a nice breakfast of modern music, visited in every corner, and turned with the citrus juicing machines of these two gourmands.
Recommended for those who like everything and are not disgusted by anything, not recommended for those who want just one thing from an album, in short, not recommended for punk & brutal & whine addicts (guys change genre), here there’s a bit of everything, choose what you like, and then go out because this damn breakfast will make you late for work, and try telling your boss “No look, a mess happened because Valfrutta harassed me with the Ashcroft model of the PozziFriend,” and see how long they’ll still be your boss, you ugly nerd, shut up and work, and save 15€ for this cd!
Tracklist Lyrics and Videos
04 Unreal (05:10)
[Blade Runner sample:]
Maybe I can help you?
How should you feel
When you've felt everything you can feel
And you still feel unreal?
How should you feel
When you've felt everything you can feel
And you still feel unreal?
You're unreal
How do you feel?
05 Lonely Soul (08:57)
God knows you're lonely souls
God knows you're lonely souls
God knows you're lonely souls
Yeah, yeah
I believe there's a time and a place
To let your mind drift and get out of this place
I believe there's a day and a place
That we will go to, and I know you wanna share.
There's no secret to living (There's no secret to living)
Just keep on walking
There's no secret to dying (There's no secret to dying)
Just keep on flying.
I'm gonna die in a place that don't know my name
I'm gonna die in a space that don't hold my fame.
God knows you're lonely souls
God knows you're lonely souls.
I believe there's a time when the cord of life
Should be cut, my friends (Cut the cord, my friend)
I believe there's a time when the cord can be cut
And this vision ends (Let this vision end).
But I'm gonna die in a place that don't know my name
And I'm gonna cry in a space that don't hold my fame.
Walking in the cold
Just keep on flying
There'll be a searchlight
On the mountain high
God knows you're lonely souls
God knows you're lonely souls
God knows you're lonely souls
God knows you're lonely souls
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I'm a lonely soul
I'm gonna die in a place that don't know my name
I'm gonna die in a place that don't know my name.
God knows you are lonely souls
Lonely souls
Lonely souls
Lonely souls
I'm a lonely soul.
So long, little chapel
???
Pack up your light
Pack up your light
Say goodbye to the holy water life
Ohhh.....???
???
Ahhh.....
06 Getting Ahead in the Lucrative Field of Artist Management (00:54)
Ballbuster commercial sample :
The name of the game is Ballbuster!
It's a family game, fun for children,
And for adults, it's exciting!
You make strategic offensive and defensive moves
Then try to bust your opponent's balls!
It's as easy as checkers, but exacting like pool!
You're a ballbuster!
Ballbuster, a great new game from Mego!
08 Celestial Annihilation (04:46)
3-2-1 fire
Now check this out (Let's go....let's go)
Now check this out (Let's go....let's go)
Now check this out (Let's go....let's go)
We came here to rock
Annihilating
Annihilating
3-2-1 fire!
10 Chaos (04:42)
Order out of chaos and the idea is that, uh, with the
influence of powerful forces behind the scene, you can bring order out of the
chaos that we see. We know, for instance, that much of the....
-...an eerie order underneath even chaos, as if the finger of God,, in order
and disorder, is always there....
-...I think he has nothing to support this. Y-you're so full of it!
Aliens....Protecting society how? Chaos happens. There's too many people here...
Atlantique :
Gotta learn the way to turn
Hat over eye
Feeling dead more than alive
Give her something to rely on
One more time.
No one hears the sound
Fear is all around
Turn the music loud
No more lullaby.
No way in, no way out
Empty talk and TV shouts
Got to find the way around
No, you ain't no lifer
In this town.
No one hears the sound
Fear is all around
Turn the music loud
No more lullaby.
Stop the beat, hear the sound
Time has come for you to speak
Your mind
Can't you hear the sound?
Chaos all around
Turn the music loud
No more lullaby
Dee-dee-dee X2
Learn to fly.
11 Rabbit in Your Headlights (06:21)
I'm a rabbit in your headlights
Scared of the spotlight
You don't come to visit
I'm stuck on this bed
Thin rubber gloves
She laughs when she's crying
She cries when she's laughing
Fat bloody fingers are sucking your soul away
I'm a rabbit in your headlights
Christian suburbanite
Washed down the toilet
Money to burn
Fat bloody fingers are sucking your soul away
Sample from Jacobs Ladder:
'If you're frightened of dying and then you hold on
You'll see devils tearing your life away
But, if you've made your peace
Then the devils are really angels
Freeing you from the Earth... from the Earth'
White worms on the underground
Caught between stations
Butter fingers
I'm losing my patience
I'm a rabbit in your headlights
Christian suburbanite
You got money to burn
Fat bloody fingers are sucking your soul away... away... away..
12 Outro (Mandatory) (01:07)
Uh, I feel that this has given me the msot incredible and woonderful thing
that I have ever been given, and also, the worst. It's a mixed bag. Uh, I
have been taken to the, absolutely, to the depths of extreme terror by this.
I've had my whole soul undermined by it, on the one hand. On the other hand,
Uh, in one sense, my experience has been about finding
joy...joy...joy....joy....joy...joy....joy....joy...joy...
