about

R&B/neosoul meets drum and bass meets balade. "Follow Moi" frames the infatuation with the digital self, the likes and the followers in our digital sphere.
Here an extended edition with two poetic sessions, a piano interlude, and a rather chaotic percussive ending.
Created as a part of a project research: www.wearethebots.net

Lyrics

Fall - Fall - Follow - Follow Me - Follow Moi

Why
Why don’t you follow moi
I want you to follow me
Why
Why don’t you like my pics?
I want you

This virtual love affair
ain't nothing but unfair
The real tangible me or
what it appears to be
will take any kind of affection
that huge emoticon's collection
with horns, wings, and bad Sundays
with fear and tears in all three monkeys
don’t role model me but
follow me, re-post me, silicon me valley me,

If I fall...,would you follow me

Why
Why don’t you follow me, don’t you follow moi
I want you to follow me
Why
Why don’t you like my page?
I want you

As capitalist entanglements evolve
And the taste of things devolves
Frustration appears as a controllable feeling
While the next self-sale is already appealing

Promoting yourself online is a suck up job
Success tricks you through a brief heartthrob
Faking interest to get some attention
and believing in a subjective virtual ascension

Algorithms giving you a shallow sense of self
You barely liking yourself nor anybody's else
Un-downloadable experiences are waiting to be gained
Offline, full of trouble and with some joy to be maintained

Questioning without proper intention
In this no one is going to listen intervention
Deepening the curvature of your spine
Here is a slave to the posting shit online

I create to the cloud, to A.I. aliens to come
to upset the stablished order of some
my poetry - out of selections
commercial irrelevance is my biggest transgression

Fall - Fall - Follow - Follow Me - Follow Moi
