Trippin' on a 4-Track Blues 05:55
lyrics

It's an overdriven war Outside your house, beyond your door Like nothing you've ever seen before I'm making magic on a 424 It never lets you down Above all things you've wrapped your mind around Cutting deep inside And it ain't nothing but a sound So, turn off the tele You get so anxious when you watch the news You can't stand it So you go trippin' on a 4-track blues It's running through your veins Breaks down what your mind contains Repeats 'till only you remain Repeats 'till only you remain The groove is cutting deep Bouncing down from cheek to cheek It ain't nothing but a trip It ain't nothing but a trick So, turn off the tele You get so anxious when you watch the news You can't stand it And you've got nothing to lose So, turn off the tele You get so anxious when you watch the news You can't stand it So you go trippin' on a 4-track blues So, turn off the tele You get so anxious when you watch the news You can't stand it And you've got nothing to lose So, turn off the tele You get so anxious when you watch the news You can't stand it So you go trippin' on a 4-track blues Oh, you go trippin' You go trippin' on a 4-track blues Oh, you go trippin' You go trippin' on a 4-track blues

Hit 'em till they bleed I gotta kill the elderly I gotta kill the elderly God knows it's meant to be Working day and night I'll put up a fight You know I'm not alright I'm gonna shoot 'em down on sight 'Cause they drag me down And they've been around They drag me down They've got a price to pay Let the children play Take 'em all away Don't you let 'em stay You'd I wouldn't budge But I'm holding on a grudge I keep bodies in my garage 'Cause they drag me down And they've been around They drag me down But they'll hunt me down at night They're gonna hunt me down at night They'll take me down at night Drag my aching body with so much delight They're gonna hunt me down at night, they're gonna hunt me

When It's Time to Say Goodbye 06:06
lyrics

When the ocean takes me away I'll have nothing left to say And when emotion takes me away It doesn't matter anyway When it's time to say goodbye You better run off and hide For when the motion takes us away You better get on your knees and pray So you think of it and cry And it makes you wanna die And it feels like the end of the world When it's time to say goodbye Mama's gone away And daddy's outta town Life grows tough on baby Boe When reality's so out of bounds And disproportion came out to play Peace of mind, it cannot stay And he's almost taken away Can he make it through another day So he thinks of it and cries And it makes him wanna die And it feels like the end of the world When it's time to say goodbye Oh lonely old me I've got to break free Something's wrong with me Oh lonely old me I've got to break free Something's wrong with me Oh lonely old me I've got to break free Something's wrong with me

about

Vol. 1... my very first baby. This EP is the opening chapter to my romantic and passionate affair with art, creation and music specifically. Born out of a pure need to create, I recorded the EP on my TASCAM 424 (hence the name ehm ehm..) in midst of the Coronavirus epidemic and after a 3 year rough mandatory service in the IDF's artillery forces. I barely knew what I was doing, I just wanted to create something... anything...
Help came from an old friend, Erez, he saw the potential in my work and mentored me throughout the recording process.

And eventually I made it.. It's here, it exists, it lives and it breathes.
424 Vol. 1, is the brainchild of everything I was feeling for a brief moment, when I discovered life again. Free of anything that can stop me. Me in my purest form. The first steps of Alexander Boe.

Thank you for your time and now..

Dark & Stormy:
60ml (2oz) Gosling rum
