    You've captured the nightmare scenario of atrocity aptly...and it even keeps a beat.

    I'm writing a folk war protest song, just me and an acoustic guitar and maybe some harmonica...who do I think I am, Bob Dylan? Perhaps I'll record it using just one mic.

    Maybe it's not "we are the hollow men, we are…" for everyone, but to me, as a conveniently negligible fragment of all of us end-consumers of this so-called collective reality, it's getting harder and harder to miss the moment we're in. A moment where, we're told, global warming isn't just a concern anymore but an urgent, existential crisis, where by 2030 it’s not optional but mandatory to convert every last polluting car into a clean, virtuous electric one, where the magickal AI bubble casually gulps down obscene amounts of electricity, memory, water… where, in the name of progress and global betterment, we keep torching oil and gas (fields) like there's no tomorrow, while simultaneously assuring ourselves there absolutely is one, just slightly greener, where... and somehow, right in the middle of all that, "Headpieces filled with straw — ALAS!" Maybe that's the point. "The absurd is the essential concept and the first truth." Maybe there isn't a piece of graffiti out there that could compress this whole spectacle into something readable, something that could sketch the trajectory of this unstoppable, self-congratulatory march forward we all, as end-consumers, are already neatly packaged inside of.

    It is much more complicated than it looks. This wall is in my hometown, car(opel manta) has plates too..

    The shift here in the last 5 years is wild, characters from the GTA game are everywhere i kid you not, but also more Ferraris and "hypo" cars than ever, i´m the culprit too considering i timed mself how quickly can i get to work with my rat style rocket back in the day but anyway, like an alternate reality, everyone is in some kind of a character. Highschool kids jacked on steroids, adidas slavic tracksuits, wanna be mafia rolling in their cars in 2 in the morning strolling around, cop asking me for an id 300m from home and wont let go.

    War genes sparked by the coronus virus TI.

    No amount of new age literature can eat thru this apple.

    Flying on a huge rock in the great deep and calling a fish as an ancestor, no wonder nobody can transcend.

    Finally someone who posts a track audiosex and the sistersite has enough members but no one participating in the contest I used to smoke weed all day long too, but after a while I became more and more paranoid from that stuff I quit in 2008 I never touched it again after that

    I also stopped, but I try to hold on to the good feelings and forget the negative.

    Cool, hold onto the good vibes!!

    How does your song relate to the Banksy art of a plane dropping a sortie of musical instruments?

    Expression through graffiti. If I saw correctly, it was painted on a wall.

    My doubt about my interpretation stems from the fact that I'm French and my English is limited to written form. I used a ragga sample simply for its rhythm, without fully understanding it...

    Specifically what about expression through graffiti is exemplified in your song? Is there any reflection on the subject of the art itself in your work?

    I don't go that far. Cannabis is illegal where I live. It's a form of rebellion. Banksy is a rebel to me.

    I sampled a clip from the Iranian war where a c-ram is attempting to shoot incoming missiles down. It sounded cool as hell. Stretched it a little, looped it, put some techno drums under it, used zynaptics color map to alter the original sample to something that was in key, added some more bullshit.

    Anyway it turned out pretty bad. So ill skip submitting anything this time.

    This is a difficult time.

    @macros mk2 why not post the samples you made? Somebody might use them to put something together. There is still time!!
