Brage Egil Herlofsen Another one of those world music binge albums. This one I've listened to a little more than the No-Nation Orchestra one, or the Ariya Astrobeat Arkestra one, but I still can't find anything clever or meaningful to say about it. Favorite track: Paper Tigers: Ballad of the Office Worker.

Elena Pereira A great combination I didn't realize existed before: traditional Arab music and rock. It's pretty goddamn chill. Favorite track: Paper Tigers: Ballad of the Office Worker.

Dylan Kuhn Very groovy mantras that manage to be inspiring without feeling too religious or preachy.
Kevin Johnston

Kevin Johnston Most of the tracks have lyrics (spare, and poignant), but one of the most mesmerizing tracks is this self-titled one, one of two instrumentals. The whole album is a kaleidoscopic blend of arabian guitars/rhythms and indie rock. Favorite track: Painted Caves.

Ali Oolaywa, tharabay Zoomayra, Ali ya Ali, Tharabay Zoomayra (childhood rhyme in Arabic for child named Ali) Next time we say to see a brighter day And time we sell: we spend our time in hell Ooow The life we make no time to play the fake And rules unlearned can't you see my fingers burned Oow... Hey watanee (my country) Next time we say to see a brighter day and time we sell: we spend our time in hell Don't spend your time in hell

Underneath the water deep Shark is waiting sound asleep In a way your just like her: say to swim but I'm unsure And if there's a change of heart Would you go break mine apart And if there's a change of mind: would you mislead the blind Underneath the water deep shark is waiting sound asleep In a way your just like her say to swim but I'm Sure Unsure Sure Unsure Sure

Lamentations/ yearning of the humanoid variety ( Aman (safety in Arabic)

Half-Human 03:48
Where there's a will, there's a way Make time for love in your day Don't say as I do, Do as I say Make time for me in your way The wolves are at bay: youth drives them away, youth drives them away If you feed and keep me warm, I will go away If you tell me you don't care I will try to make you change your way I will try to make you change ways Cause we all want what we can't get, and swear we don't want much But underneath our nose i'll bet, there is peace of mind and such, Peace of mind and such This feels like the Ice-Age, maybe it's the last page The dinosaurs are gone: they never learned to sing along Sing along...sing along

The Ocean 06:18
The Satellite, begins to stray It's on its own, It's on its way The Satellite begins to stray There will never be another you Is this the end, were we begin Is going out, like going in Is this the end where we begin There will never be another you There will be another you / There will never be another you There will be another you / There will never be another you There will be another you / There will never be another you There will be another you / There will never be another you

Morse Code 04:21
This life is like a wave that moves to you and then away This life is like a wave Or maybe it's a star that burns to move you from afar? This life, is like a star Wave and star, that's what you are, a gentle breeze And seas of stars will flow along in streams Seas of stars will flow along in streams This life is like the rain that washes down to rise again This life, is like the rain Or maybe it's the sun that's burning out for everyone? This life, is like the sun Sun and rain, are like your pain, make the water rush and run To lift the load and pick you up again Lift the load and pick you up again This life is like the rain that washes down to rise again This life is like the rain This life is like a wave that moves to you and then away This life is like a wave This life is like a wave This life is like a wave This life is like a wave

Peace Bear 04:08
Life is but a dream, real as it may seem It's only a dream: of images we've seen When I was a boy, I played as children play I wanted to win, i wanted my way It's alright.... It's alright... It's all right with me There is a narrow line that no-one ever see's It separates the dream from our reality And when somebody dies it's beautiful you see They wake up from the dream we call reality It's alright.... It's alright... It's all right with me
