So many influences and surprising shifts, I just listened to "Summer is gone, hail the sun", which starts like a dreamy 60s song, perfect Hippie-atmosphere with beautiful vocals and acoustic guitar. And suddenly the presence comes in with the King's fluid Rap and unmistakable voice. Hurry to get one of the two remainig cassettes, I already have one

one sunday morning I skipped into the sea
but then i cut me on a clam
i cut me on a clam
infused by a salty injection, i went back up again
and i opened up the clam, but it was empty
and i opened up the clam, but it was empty
this, this one, it wasn't empty
no, it was filled up to the brim with a salty goo
one sunday morning i cut me on a clam
i made another try, but i cut me again
one clam, two clams, three clams, four
Calebass and Sneekie San Salvador
A hard shell, soft shell, razor clam score
Mix 'em all together for a funky chowder
and so i threw it into the sea
and i throw myself into it too
and then the albatross, he sat upon my shoulder
and then it lead me to a cave that was filled up to the brim with empty shells
and i said, hey, what's with all the shells,
it replied...
a peace of mind, yea
Human:
My doggy dug a great big hole
She dug it in the ground
She was digging for a rabbit
For she made that rabbit sound
How'd it go?
Woofa Woofa Digga Digga
Woofa Woofa Digga Dig
My doggy dug a great big hole
She dug it in the ground
She was digging for a rabbit
For she made that rabbit sound
That Rabbit Sound
Woofa Woofa Digga Digga
Dog came flying through the air
In my socks and down my gumboots
In my teeth and in my hair
Dog:
And this one goes out to all the fine furry creatures out there
hear me now!
I dig in deep with the claws of fury
I get the passion and I'm off in a scurry
Off me to catch me a fine piece of furry
You never know when your gonna get a lucky
I got no worries
I got no worries
Gonna dig me some deep deep holes
Live life simply
Rabbit:
You
You can't catch me
Digga digga
You can't catch me
Canine fang
You can't catch me
Ya ain't gonna snatch me
I am going, I am going to run
I am going, I am going to run
You can't catch me
You can't snatch me
You can't reach me
You can't reach down the rabbit hole
Human:
My doggy dug a great big hole
She dug it in the ground
She's digging for a rabbit
For she made a rabbit sound
(based off the old poem)
Cross my heart and hope to die
Stick a needle in my eye
Wait a moment, I spoke a lie
I never really wanted to die
But if I may and if I might
My heart is open for tonight
Though my lips are sealed
And my promise is true
I won't break my word
My word to you
A needle in a haystack
A fennel in my pocket
A lock on my heart
A cardiac arrest
Esta noche la luna no sale
Esta noche la luna no sale
Va a estar oscuro, va a estar oscuro
Va a estaar oscuro, va a estar oscuro
Esta noche la luna no sale
Esta noche la noche esta oscura
No puedes ver, no puedes ver
No puedes ver, no puedes verme
Esta noche la luna no sale
Esta noche la noche esta oscura
Voy a encender un camino con velas
Voy a encender un camino con velas
Pa que veas, pa que veas, pa que veas
Pa que veas
Uhhhh uhhhh uhhh uhhhh....
Esta noche la luna no sale
Esta noche la noche esta oscura
Y el viento sopla y el camino se apaga
The Moon
On this night the moon will not be seen
On this night the moon will not be seen
There will be darkness, there will be darkness
There will be darkness, there will be darkness
On this night the moon will not be seen
On this night the moon will not shine
You will not see, you will not see
You cannot see, you cannot see me
On this night the moon will not be seen
On this night the moon will not shine
I will light your way with trail of candles
I will light you way with a trail of candles
So that you may see, so that you may see
So that that you may see me
Oooohhh oooohhhh oooooohh. . .
On this night the moon will not be seen
On this night the moon will not shine
The wind will blow and make your path disapear!

This album was born from the inspiration and creative contribution of many talented artists active within the SoundCloud and Bandcamp community. Calebass and the Couch King first worked together on "The Clam Collectors Society" in 2015. Since then, the global independent music scene has gotten tighter and individual musical ideas have become further interwoven. Fusion is the norm and collaboration between enamored musicians is the fertile mixing ground for sonic fertilization. New music offspring are born on the regular. This 5 song EP contains five of those music babies.
All songs mastered by Ill Dub. Album final master by Russell Sinfield
