In order to take action, one must first take a moment to reflect and understand what is happening around oneself. And this is why we’ve divided our playlist into 2 main acts, the first is aimed at giving you the chance to look inward, maybe sob a bit, maybe set fire to your belongings in a cleansing ritual.
The second act will help you channel your new found clarity in a constructive way, maybe start a riot, maybe infiltrate the system from the inside and after years of undercover work, tear it down.
Mayaline and Marc.
