feel 03:31
so you drew happiness out of my little smile i kept my fears neatly tucked away just for a while frozen in wonders i tie an intricate dream thought you could tell me what happened in between the moment we met and the moment we parted i think some scary shit has just been started all of a sudden i feel my head falling silent, my armor falls apart smooth like a thief you´re sneaking into my heart lost in mystical meaning i´m thrown into a twirl of dread and desire, i was in love with you, girl, the moment we met and then the moment we parted i knew the life of mine has just been started all of a sudden i feel

gloom 03:12
yet another night slowly fading away and the morning kindly wakens in grey yet another day in my wonderland of boredom with my head in the sand yet another way for my blues to bloom it is what i do, i am king of the gloom yet another gnome sitting in my head telling me seven ways to make gold from lead yet another hug from eternity, and wisdom will descend upon me yet another yawn from the time passing by i am the king of gloom, i fall but don't fly dreaming up futures, feeling kind of enlightened in a possible past i have never been frightened of striking a pose too dandy to be decoded with a cup of gin i get my matrix reloaded but my colorful present does not know what was meant with the secondhand past that must have been dreamt by someone kind of enlightened, thinking in circles striking a pose, with my head in the sand in my wonderland

about

hons is a Vienna-based electroacoustic musician with a knack for experimental sounds and gritty trip-hop grooves. His latest full length album necessities both brims with industrial sounds and creepy psychedelic rants and encompasses all of the elements of a great down-tempo/trip-hop album that shines in a very dark way.
Necessities is not for the faint of heart, but the album wouldn’t be as sonically uncompromising or convincing if hons tried to be all things to all people - an audio excavator, plunging deeper into the harmonic regions of darkness in order to extract the hope and sensitivity buried far beneath the surface.
For trip-hop fans looking for a little more ‘space’ in their diet, Necessities should satisfy that taste hands-down.


Enjoy, Yours truly,
hons
