about
An ultra-lofi piece, attempting a "sound collage" effect to underpin vocal melodies loaded with bit-crusher. Lyrically the song recalls happy times working in and around the Wallonian city of Charleroi.
lyrics
I've been so happy - you might never guess if I told you where
more than contentment,
arose, juxtaposed with an air of despair.
Smoke-stained the stigma, from the Cockerill's choking of Charleroi.
Degeneration, so evident from Monsieur Fontaine's Citroen car.
All hail to the sorrow,
That the sombre Sambre knows
All hail to a tomorrow
When the sombre Sambre flows, with a joie de vivre I propose.
Head north to Brussels, for we are to fly the gravy plane
Regeneration - no romantic notion when I return
to rearrange that sad refrain
All hail...

The great Cat Temper does it again! 10 more synthpop bangers with titles like “Growls on Film” and “Electric Pawpurrella.” Instant classic. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 11, 2023
A pair of beautifully ghostly songs from this Philly group that set haunting and mysterious melodies amidst drifting rivers of electronics. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 25, 2022
