[MP3] Audego – Side Effects

The rattle in my chest reminds me
Of my mistakes
Cigarettes to my burnt lips
Take my breath away
No one remembers much these days
Ruptured memories
It’s all a haze
All the things we lose along the way
Our glitched moral arithmetic
Is too cryptic too grasp
We got so lit we caught aflame
And now we’re dusted
Dusted ash
No one remembers much these days
Ruptured memories
It’s all a haze
All the things we lose along the way

After the party comes the after party low. Australian Kitchen favorites (and alums of the #DK11 album), Audego are back with their first new music in a while about that low. Stellar production as usual by Paso and equally excellent vocal by Aroly that shows a subtle evolution in their trademark off-kilter, blue-note electronic soul sound and has us excited for their next full length project, an EP set for release in Jan. 2016. The “Side Effects” track is available for sale now, video to follow in November. Don’t sleep, we love these guys!
