lyrics

Welcome to the Break Beat Underground-we hope you'll like the sound.
If you don't care to know what it's like, then take a hike.

We got a new direction in music technology, and sonic psychology, as well as it oughta be. With a lo-fi electro-rocking underground sound, it's no wonder we'll never be found. We can take it to the world, or let it unfurl, or give it to the legions of lawyers and corporate labels backing all of the million-dollar players and takers-awayers with the whole world on the outside, all looking inside.

Got to know that the heroes of this story ain't sound in our thoughts (we're banking naught). Thus we're keeping up as well as we can to be the man. While lately we've been trying to grab the slice of life that's given in the limelight - mouthing out pieces of mind, and always in time, by design. But nevertheless, we look at the rest, and think that we're coming out trump above all of this musical junk.

Welcome to the Break Beat Underground - in here the future is now.
We open up the doors to explore this indie sound.

This musical scene, it ain't no dream. We're getting tired of this anti-genre-crossing and dropping of famous nom-de-plumes that feature the remixes by the P Daddy Diddys of the Benjamin music world. Never seeing what's been advertised, to pairs of eyes, is like living with a lock on your mind. It's no wonder that the sole sound is always around - it's pounded until it's dead in the ground.

Welcome to the Break Beat Underground - where the time is right.
Once you hear us you'll stay and groove 'till the dawn of light.

They live musical lies that you seem to take as real. You don't think for yourself, you take from the shelves of fashion and famine. You're looting and grabbing whenever someone you see, on TV, tells you who to be. We're Boulder Style Makers, movers and shakers. We're making a statement every mile for mile. When we pick up a groove, or change a tune, suddenly everyone who's no one is doing it too.

Welcome to the Break Beat Underground-know that there's nothing to fear.
Leave your posers and players home, they're not welcome here.

Welcome to the Break Beat Underground - this party lasts until dawn.
Come back whenever you want to, baby, we're always on.

Over the years of listening to Emancipator, this album has grown to be my favourite. The melancholy and mysticism in it is so captivating. Amazing orchestration of all the different layers. And just lately I’ve come to realize how strongly it’s a guitar-based album. Antti Kailio
