Hook: Applaud, applaud No I don’t take sugar in my coffee Applaud, applaud No my life’s not lacking in sweetness cos I’m home free Applaud, applaud I’m looking forwards If it’s ahead then I say let’s go I still slay in my Kitenge Not looking for you, don’t be offended I’m a giraffe and you a roach If you come for me your faith I will end it I’ll break it so you can’t mend it You won’t mend it Cos now I’m free now I’m free no you don’t get it Cos who are you next to me not my time you cannot spend it Don’t be offended Cos now I’m free now I’m free no you don’t get it My life’s a dream and it’s seems I’m finally contented Ive faced the worst without fear I’m a living legend So no my time’s not free please dont spend it Don’t be offended I see you try to be me please no It’s a myth if you think this was all easy life can be so cold, you gotta keep your wits about you Do I have to say it twice? Twice? Hook

about

"Hi there, I’m really happy to present my new EP « Kernel Panic » released on one of my favorite labels « Yuku ». I’ve been discovering a lot of great music and new artists thanks to Yuku and I’m really happy to join the family.

My first release ever was a footwork release 8 years ago, and I wanted to experiment with this 160 bpm vibe again and merge it with a lot of different personal influences. I’ve been experimenting a lot with crazy polyrhythm sequencers and Euclidean algorithms for this EP. It was a lot of fun but my laptop didn’t like it at all. During the whole process, I experimented a huge amount and experienced loads of bugs and laptop freezes, so I decided to dedicate this EP to "Kernel Panics".

It might be the most hybrid EP I've done. You can hear breaks, electro, footwork, grime, percussive, and dub ingredient within. I also had the pleasure to collaborate with the very talented Kenyan rapper, Nah Eeto, for Piga Makofi, and I can’t wait to play this one live with her.

I asked my friend Vica Pacheco to create the artwork and she built this psychedelic 3d world based on « the hypnotic and dynamic energy » of the EP.

Big thanks to Yuku for following me into these new areas of experimentation."
