about
Dedicated to all of our human and non-human friends!
lyrics
Everywhere my friends are all around me
And it’s my guess that they are with you too
If you want to keep them being friendly
Treat your friends as you’d like them to treat you
'Well, who are all these friends?' I hear you asking
Right now it feels like I am all alone
But friends are always right there when you need them
Making up this place that we call home
Well, let introduce you to some of my good friends
And you may recognise them as some on whom you depend
There’s the trees
The Trees!
And the bees
The Bees!
The rivers
The Rivers!
You and them and me
You’ll find friends in unexpected places
Plants, animals and other people too
In real life, more than in cyberspaces
And friends don’t always look or think like you
To be a good friend, here are some things that you need
Honesty and loyalty and all the cups of tea!
With the trees
The Trees!
And the bees
The Bees!
The rivers
The Rivers!
And everything you see
We’re all friends
Bacteria
We’re all friends
Eukarya
We’re all friends
Archaea
We’re all friends. Yeah!
You! And You! And what about you!
And that thing over there!
It’s not even really a thing! It’s my friend! Yeah!
Well, we’re all friends.
And it’s my guess that they are with you too
If you want to keep them being friendly
Treat your friends as you’d like them to treat you
'Well, who are all these friends?' I hear you asking
Right now it feels like I am all alone
But friends are always right there when you need them
Making up this place that we call home
Well, let introduce you to some of my good friends
And you may recognise them as some on whom you depend
There’s the trees
The Trees!
And the bees
The Bees!
The rivers
The Rivers!
You and them and me
You’ll find friends in unexpected places
Plants, animals and other people too
In real life, more than in cyberspaces
And friends don’t always look or think like you
To be a good friend, here are some things that you need
Honesty and loyalty and all the cups of tea!
With the trees
The Trees!
And the bees
The Bees!
The rivers
The Rivers!
And everything you see
We’re all friends
Bacteria
We’re all friends
Eukarya
We’re all friends
Archaea
We’re all friends. Yeah!
You! And You! And what about you!
And that thing over there!
It’s not even really a thing! It’s my friend! Yeah!
Well, we’re all friends.

Each piece on this album is like a separate tincture -- and so many different effects rendered. I'm obsessed with every single song on this album.

Wedding modern electronic beats to 1930's musical styles like jazz and big band, this Belgian band put a unique spin on nostalgic escapism.

The latest from UK producer Kemper Norton is a haunting LP full of delicate ambient textures inspired by Cornish children's dances.
