Grey in all its contrasts
Source of consumption
An ever active cathode
A welcome in re//verse
Negation is all… o freezing cold
Reproach as invention
One creative cess-pool of ill pride
Feeding the black hole.
Inverted starlight flashed
Masked passports reveal
While the antagonist approached
Success came as a matter
A crime made from everything
It‘s the open gate
A vast blackness behind
A final travel into an endless void

Locked in the Login
Our omniscent pixel farm‘s got a new toy
Framing your outer windows
You porn the dandy inside of you.
Recycling the self to market.
Users vie for attention
The counter reveals the count
Insignificance matters most in clicks
Oh, made up so elegantly
For the very first impression
Not lasting for too long
In the confessional
With the screens lit up so brightly
Displaying all that‘s left:
The omnipresent threat
Minding the pad. Linked to the pod.
»How is your IP?«
You get your sense for the need
of what is not needed
Exhibiting the physical remains
What‘s after digital dissolvement?
Club vanity networks invisibly
Our likeness so openly
Oh, made up so elegantly
For the very first impression
Not lasting for too long
In the confessional
With the screens lit up so brightly
Displaying all that‘s left:
The omnipresent threat

From grain, molecules and atoms
Ferments come forming
Extracting your essence
Duplicating what‘s been sent
The rush numbs the notion of that
Something must be wrong in here…
This weary kissed out file
Lifeless fragments merged
Swimming through the stream
In gossiped overdose
This lonely kissed out file
Fragments form the mosaic
The other side decides
What you might have to hide
Warming the bones in virtual sheets of disemboddied desires
Your community‘s fleet of harmful gossip stumps further into the black hole
Hopelessly delving for codes, your unpaid virtual show, electric fire washes the brain
Turned to dust as the static attracts and comes cracking the spine of your network
Flat minded screens lighting the cells
of mundane lifes at night
This weary kissed out file
It‘s got your name cleared
Drowning in the stream
Disect the self-respect
This lonesome kissed out file
This life lived off line
The other side decides
This is what you‘ve left to hide:
DENIED…

This vagrant‘s holiday.
Tried so hard to escape the catechism
Of growth and efficiency
With no doubt allowed.
Mock transparency in numbers
This face still has a name
Bearing an idealess ID
Now who‘s the profiteer?
Whitening the coffee, mousing the dice
All keys to the board!
Cheaper trick mails, allergy bytes
Monitor the plague
Scrape off the icon,
maroon the mpeg
The digital fatigue
Shipwreck the upload, Carcass the profile
An Unperson‘s ID
Void-y-void mingles
Irrelevance stirs
The pool of vomited thoughts
So spiteful
Milden the core
News for news‘ sake
Spine-tingling blogs
So oblivious
Flesh rotten data
Inedible binary grain
Fire-wired brain
revolts in vain
Whitening the coffee, mousing the dice
All keys to the board!
Cheaper trick mails, allergy bytes
Monitor the plague
Scrape off the icon,
maroon the mpeg
The digital fatigue
Shipwreck the upload, Carcass the profile
An Unperson‘s ID

I - Seek - You!
Read in your face like in a book
Composing the most trivial phrase
As you occupy your place on my space
While the messanger reveals
It‘s saving those supected headlines
Partying the Red Files
From uploaded open codes
Ego-craving the dark sides
Denounce the universally deviant
That‘s how you enjoy your part
In this playpen of Egomania
Unlived life twittered daily
Put on display for your iStore
Hard-wired partied concentration camps
Devoid of networked content
Fuming the soundcloud
As you live your lifejournal
As you tube a blank screen
Feeding the diffused hatred
Blog the verbal warfare:
Dull votes the thumbs down
Highly rated gossip kills
Erased you from their memory banks
It‘s all in there
code
cells
bones
skin
DNA
Uploaded
Then
Dissolved

Property of machine
No higher value given
Silicon washed veins
Command »C«, Command »V«
It‘s in the winds
Dimensions of design
Functionality in perfection
Command »C«, Command »V«
Ciphered and barcoded
An evolutionist‘s wet dream
Momentum versus stalemate
Command »C«, Command »V«
The Ampères and Volts
The final format chosen
Stored away for future reference
Command »C«, Command »V«
With the finest desire rumbling
From media created media
From machine created you
Still you think it‘s all yours
What‘s finally become
The binary you inside you
Arbituaryly
Life‘s Grinding Halt
Worshiping their finest creation
Rolling out the virtual stock
Tingling the machinist‘s spine
Command »C«, Command »V«
Now flooding the cities
Milding the core
Streamlined in efficiency
Command »C«, Command »V«
With the finest desire rumbling
From media created media
From machine created you
Still you think it‘s all yours
What‘s finally become
The binary you inside you
Arbituaryly
Life‘s Grinding Halt

Originally released October 2014 on CD only, this new remaster was created from the original production files & mixes. The original production was executed from 2009 through 2013 utilizing Logic 8 and various outboard. Heavy use was made of the Ensoniq DP/4 which could also be utilized during the re-creation of the new remasters.
This remaster was done in ProTools importing the original information from Logic 8 and, in part, re-create the original mixes using the original effects and outboard.
