    The world of tomorrow… shaped and informed by the people, places and things from our past. Backwards glances at a sepia life. Who we thought we’d be, where we thought we’d end up and the things we did in the innocence (and often stupidity) of youth are a large part of this release. In the post-punk landscape of the very late 70’s into the new wave of the early 80’s, analog synths, 808 drum machines, vocoders, futuristic noises from another dimension were a part of the sonic landscape. Nights (and days) spent in San Francisco in pursuit of the elusive high of new music, friendship and love, from various indie record stores (and the much beloved and missed Tower Records), to small clubs, ballrooms, bars and a former ice rink (Winterland), are part of the DNA that led to this point in time. The world of tomorrow is here today…

about

Recalling a blazingly bright free spirit, who lived life on the edge until it all became too much...

lyrics

Underneath the high-rise buildings
Bathed in the neon glow
The trains pass overhead
Cars cruise by so slow

The mood is taut, with pent up tension
The roar of your bike, catches attention
Furtive glances, the edge of danger
Putting trust in a total stranger

Everyone was mesmerized
Whenever you entered a room
Were you a boy or a girl?
Everyone would just assume

A toss of your hair, a meaningful stare
Suggestions of what could be
If the price was right, you’d stay the night
And make it ecstasy

Chorus
Let’s look into the future, by burning up the past
We thought we could dance forever, but knew it couldn’t last

- Let’s live, live too fast
- We know, it won’t last
- Let’s erase the past
- and let the moment catch fire...

Evenings spent in leather bars
To penthouse parties and expensive cars
Any kind of drug, just to numb the pain
A line or three, or a spike in a vein

But it all unravelled
Too hard to pretend
On that fateful evening
Slit writs and a happy end

Chorus
Let’s look into the future, by burning up the past
We thought we could dance forever, but knew it couldn’t last
