Ikarus EP

by Jay Woser

/
  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Ikarus is the debut-EP by Jay Woser and uses its title as a creed. The five tracks and two remixes are formed by and lost in strong feelings and desires, which concentrate all efforts for any length of time towards a definite goal which may never be fully satisfied. Ikarus takes flight when Jay Woser channel that energy into compositions of vintage farfisa, deep synth-chords and psychedelic guitar sounds backed up with raw drum grooves that perfectly mirror the lyrics and enrich the beautiful, warm and soulful voice of lead singer Nadine Demetrio.

    The band leaves an open question to emphasize the process of flying itself, to focus on their musical journey through an endless space in between the blurring lines of their old roots and a new modern sound. Ikarus is as statement to a single mood that gives hope in the darkest hours that we all have been through.

You say a bird in a hand Is worth two in a bush You say a shoe too large Trips one up You say I should put my feet Back on the ground I say I got to leave Can’t stick around ’cause I Never get enough and I say Where there’s a will there is a way Never get enough and I say Where there’s a will there is a way You think my head ́s in the clouds Ya-ah miles out Just keep it above the crowd To find my way out I rather prize the doubt Than exist without Faith needs a doubt Like a freeway out ’cause I Never get enough and I say Where there’s a will there is a way Never get enough and I say Where there’s a will there is a way I say everything I see Looks like an open door to me Yeah, life is a train And I make sure I won ́t be late You say a bird in a hand Is worth two in a bush You say a shoe too large Trips one up ’cause I Never get enough and I say Where there’s a will there is a way Never get enough and I say Where there’s a will there is a way Never get enough and I say Where there’s a will there is a way Never get enough and I say Where there’s a will there is a way

The Level 03:58
This is a new level Nobody ́s been here before System’s crushed from an error New chords come to the fore ’Cause it’s a universe without order and law Lost in the deep blue space we hope to run ashore Flying through the stratosphere There ́s danger in the atmosphere Flying through the stratosphere Flying through the stratosphere My hands feel no grip I’m on a magic swirling trip Weightlessly I take a ride In the face of logic I fly Yeah, I fly This is a new era Nothing has been as it ́s now I ́m about to leave my footprints In the sweat of my brow ’Cause it’s a universe without order and law Lost in the deep blue space we hope to run ashore Flying through the stratosphere Without a destination There ́s danger in the atmosphere There is no gravitation Flying through the stratosphere Yeah I am loosing ground Flying through the stratosphere I am loosing ground My hands feel no grip I’m on a magic swirling trip Weightlessly I take a ride In the face of logic I fly Yeah, I fly A new universe Without order and law Lost in the deep blue space We hope to run ashore Flying through the stratosphere There ́s danger in the atmosphere Flying through the stratosphere Flying through the stratosphere Flying through the stratosphere Without a destination There ́s danger in the atmosphere There is no gravitation Flying through the stratosphere Yeah I am loosing ground Flying through the stratosphere Yeah, I am loosing... Flying through the stratosphere Without a destination There ́s danger in the atmosphere There is no gravitation Flying through the stratosphere Yeah I am loosing ground Flying through the stratosphere Oh, I am loosing ground (I am loosing ground)

Ikarus 03:28
My heart’s pounding though it would burst I am yearning to assuage my thirst I linger over dreams By all available means I build castles in the air But I’m failing to climb the stairs I shoot for the moon But the break of dawn always sets too soon so All I do is Follow my (follow my) Follow the sun in me Maybe I could fall Maybe I could fail Maybe I ain’t right But at least I have to try Maybe I could fall Maybe I could fail Maybe I ain’t right But at least I have to try Maybe I could fall Maybe I could fail Maybe I ain’t right (I ain’t right) But at least I have to try (have to try)

The Streets 04:48
I go out for a stroll Urban dwellers feed my soul Still warm but the trees cast red leaves People bustle about What a gaudily crowd I smell the last whiff of a summery breeze An old man ́s staring on the ground Mumsy words calm a baby down A boy shoots a sly glance on me This town is a source of life Strangers soothe me every time In the streets I seek and find My peace of mind In the streets In the streets of this town In the streets I find my peace of mind In the streets In the streets of this town In the streets I find my peace of mind Sun ́s slowly sinking down Sheds a red light on the town The wind plays a paperbag around A drunk tramp staggers past His dreams might not have last Hope falls like leaves so fast See the gaudy neon lights Dispel the darkness of the night All around is strange and bright This town is a source of life Strangers soothe me every time In the streets I seek and find My peace of mind In the streets In the streets of this town In the streets I find my peace of mind In the streets In the streets of this town In the streets I find my peace of mind [Guitar solo] In the streets In the streets of this town In the streets I find my peace of mind In the streets In the streets of this town In the streets I find my peace of mind
