about

A big part of our tastes and preferences are coined by youth. In 1984, the ominous year Orwell christianed his novel after, the songwriter's youth was a chilled and compared to today's standards, a very small world. There where only three channels on tv, before later that year the first private station went on air. The programme was still finished around midnight, by the testcard scheme. The songs people listened to where more or less coined by radio and record buying customers, in short, it did not feel nightmarish like Orwell's dystopian book suggested. The tones, Markus 'Fred' Scholl choses are also very pensive and traditional campfire guitar, before the switch to heavily modified shoegazery territory.

Scenes from 84


Quietly sitting on a sidewalk
Like ant parade the rush sets in

Street cleaners suck the waste
from day-long
Flipping butts while poking bins

Bag ladies and some back-street creatures
fighting over junk and booze

The passengers are not amused

Please, please just take me to a scene,
I haven't seen since 84
When channels three, two, one, no more
were finnished by the test card scheme

A white noise, kids can't comprehend,
Was all there left to see
The constant stream of images
Accompany My Dreams


The colony of office goers
The students and apprentices

Assistants and those they assist in
Whatever trade or business

They're driven by their daily routines
To get up early, stay up late

Bag ladies and some back-street creatures
fighting over junk and booze

The passengers are not amused
