about

Escape From Brisbane is a concept album featuring instrumental compositions by Matt Kennedy (Kitchen's Floor, Eternal Soundcheck) and a variety of guest vocalists from the Brisbane music community.


Taking inspiration from low budget 80's sci-fi soundtracks, the album is intended as a warped time capsule to preserve the personality of independent Brisbane music circa 2014/2015. Recorded over a period of 6 months, Escape From Brisbane features vocal contributions from 14 of the cities most interesting and unique musicians. Gerald Keaney (Gerald Keaney & The Gerald Keaneys), Bek Moore (Clag, Scrabbled), Mark Spinks (Gravel Samwidge), Bobby Bot (Wonderfuls), Leighton Craig (Primitive Motion), Lizley (Bitchratch), Sean & Chris Campion (Multiple Man), Dan & Sarah Spencer (Blank Realm), Andrew McLellan (Cured Pink), Sandra Selig (Primitive Motion), Conwae Burrell (Extrafoxx), and Nicola Morton (Club Sound Witches, Equalizer 2K). The cover artwork was painted by Dusty Anastassiou (Dag, Scrabbled).

 LYRICS....
I used to live in Brisbane (ft. nicola morton) 
It started with seeing weird things in the sky
Travelling so fast in the blink of an eye
Then I’d wake up with weird things in my hand
One day I awoke with a wedding band
Scars on my skin that can’t be explained
Plus that feeling that id illegally detained
I tried all the time to contact them
But they’d only ever take me at a time that suits them

I used to live in Brisbane but now im fighting aliens (fighting aliens)
I used to live in Brisbane but now im fighting aliens (fighting aliens)
X2

Fighting rednecks was never good for me
Im not so strong and my reach isn’t long
Now how do I know whos the enemy
They’re green and got in for you and me
Century wars occur thru galaxies
I joined the universal light force to fight the baddies
My weapon is the light that was always inside me
Earths run by villians who’ve destroyed the light key.

I used to live in Brisbane but now Im fucking aliens (fucking aliens)
I used to live in Brisbane but now im fucking aliens (fucking aliens)
X2

It started with the wedding band I found on my hand
And continued with a kiss that took me from the land
The aliens have the key to the light inside of you
Once you’re unlocked, there’s a lot of good to do.
Some aliens are bad, some aliens are sad,
Some aliens are sexy, some aliens on dexy’s
Some aliens are supportive, some aliens are protective,
Some aliens can get u in bed, some aliens fuck with your head
But I still fuck the ones I love, that have taken me to the above.

I used to live in Brisbane but now I’m fighting aliens (fighting aliens)
I used to live in Brisbane but now I’m fighting aliens (fighting aliens)
I used to live in Brisbane but now I’m fucking aliens (fucking aliens)
I used to live in Brisbane but now I’m fucking aliens (fucking aliens)

I used to live in Brisbane but now I’m fucking alien.

Club Sound Witches - FREE DOWNLOADS

If you are a fan of the Uprok Video.. the extended recording of that session is available as a free download or cassette from Melbourne label, Junk Mnemonic


Fraans De Waard from Vital Weekly says CLUB SOUND WITCHES - UPROK (CDR by Junk Mnemonic)
Australia's JM reports again, and now I learned it stands for Junk Mnemonic, which means I now also have a website address for them. Behind Club Sound Witches (nice name! Makes you hungry, right?) we find Nicola Morton & Matt Earle and I am not sure if I ever heard of them before. Like the previous releases on this label, the cover indicates an A-side and a B-side, and again it's two pieces of ten minutes. Maybe there is a conceptual edge to this, which I miss out upon? The music is a kinda of vaguely industrial, rhythmic, revolving in loops of synthesized sounds, distorted radio sounds and all of that sounds bit formless. It moves and it moves but not necessarily has heads or tails. 'Uprok (B)' seems of the two the more coherent piece, with a stricter form of beats on top and noise below the decks. Maybe a bit like Astral Social Club once sounded. A kind of demented techno music at work here and it works quite well, better than the noisier and more chaotic  'Uprik (A)'. It had a
head nod groove, which was all right. I wouldn't mind a bit more of that… (FdW)
