The First Song
title: Naked White Noise
Originally written, but never released, in the 90's and completely 're-written' recorded and produced in 2018 by Joseph Lowe. The song features the stand out lead vocalist for indifferentMonKeY Juanna La Cubbana and some lovely guitar work from Luke Wilding.
Tiny Rant
As mentioned a song can be interpreted in many ways. "You left me Naked" could be about love lost, love gone wrong....a bad Stag night experience.... a migrant being left adrift at sea, a soldier left with PTSD or , as in this interpretation, about finding yourself homeless. Nobody should be left homeless in our society but for some reason Governments seem unable to help people who find themselves in this situation. There are countless reasons why somebody may be homeless and the figures are rising. Finding yourself living out on the street is not a rational choice. It appears to be, in the majority of cases, a catastrophic breakdown of personal structure (financial, emotional or other) leading to irrational decision making and these people need help! I'm no expert but it could happen to you. OK Rant over.

The Lyrics:
NaKeD
Like a razor blade, cutting through my mind
Like a shadow, swallowed by the Sun
Like a flower, about to be trampled on
You left me open...open,
Cold and open...cold...and open
Like a a swallow, held in the sights of a gun
You left me NaKeD x6
If you can't find a match to light your cigarette
And you can't find the fire, to burn your desire,
You're feeling innocent, you feel a little sick
About the way we live life, about the sea and the sky
Well alright, alright, alright, alright...
You left me NaKeD
Like a satellite lost in the sky
Like you've entered my mind
You left me NaKeD
The Project
This project is by indifferentMonKeY. The music is a mixture of old school trip hop/funk (A sort of Funked up Trip Hop) with a feel for a futuristic vibe. The lyrics are mostly social comment, quite often between the lines. A perfect start for dazyRecords. We have an E.P. Ready and will release it for digital download. However we would like to release approx three 12" singles, an E.P. (Human Diamond) and Album (American Sunrise) ( both on Vinyl and Cassette as this medium fits so well with indifferentMonKeY. The cost of pressing vinyl and the cost of promotion is a little inhibiting right now so please look out for updates at www.indifferentmonkey.com
