Submerged VS Bill Laswell - The Driven

The Driven describes the people running loose in the interior of the mental health section of the prison. "Auto-PILOT" - as fellow resident Semyon Bumagin called them. We were never sure if the Russian really had Alzheimer's, was faking in hopes of a reduced sentence, or was gaming us so well that us being unable to tell was all a part of his master plan.

RA EX.243: Adrian Sherwood

Adrian Sherwood's love affair with reggae began as a teenager in High Wycombe. He started DJing in his early teens and then threw himself into the music industry—by the time he was 20 he had run a record shop, set up a distribution company and run multiple record labels. In the 1980s he forged a name for himself as a producer, putting his own distinctive, uncluttered stamp on all kinds of music, from reggae to industrial to jazz. The number of projects he's leant his name to is staggering. He's made psychedelic Afro-dub with Africa Head Charge, remixed Depeche Mode, hit the studio with Lee 'Scratch' Perry, dabbled in experimental hip-hop with Tackhead and overseen reggae collectives like Singers & Players. He burst out of the blocks in 2015, releasing a collaborative album with Pinch and starting a new compilation series called At The Controls. He stopped by our London office this month to discuss the highs and lows of his four-decade career

Algiers - Irony. Utility. Pretext.

"Irony. Utility. Pretext."

They said it’s not enough
just to shoot us down
It’s a sound that’s systematized
It’s a noise just to drown us out
But when your time is come
we’ll all be there
just to watch you fall
And then one by one
all the parasites will just fall off

You put your vote in a ballot box
This one’s marked UNDP
Inscribe your
tyrant’s name in blood
Choice is the guillotine

We’ll put our faith into Afro Pop
in a decolonized context
Espouse the aesthetes’
contempt for ethos
Irony. Utility. Pretext.

“Embrace primitive man”
(La-la-la-la-la, you say)
“Destroy primitive man”
(La-la-la-la-la, you say)

“With our art
we’ll transcend again”

You put your hand out to shake
Then they export you in chains
You fought
for centuries for change
And they gave you
more of the same
They swapped the dogs
and the cross
for sublimated forestalling
They changed the names
of the boss
until you forgot who it was

Find your favorite color
so you can wash it out
in your hymns
Correcting primitive cracks
into straight lines
Superiority is born again

We’ll put our faith into Afro Pop
in a decolonized context
Espouse the aesthetes’
contempt for ethos
Irony. Utility. Pretext.

But all you can say is...
