Kit Sebastian - Durma
You might have missed the release of the Kit Sebastian debut album “Mantra Moderne'“ earlier this year, since French-Turkish-English psychedelica and lo-fi pop is not exactly something the algorithms tend to pick up. Most critics who have heard it, sprinkled it with plenty of stars, and rightfully so. In any case, be sure to check out this video for “DURMA”: you might discover this is something you need in your life.
English translation of the Turkish lyrics:
DON'T STOP / A new day starts and yet / Your mind dyes itself dark again. / When you wake glumly to a life In thrall of drabness and routine / Where are the dreams that used to be your vine? / Where are your interests, fewer every day? / Stale songs even your grief would sing, / And your deluded libido / Would but rotten desires proffer. / That dream from which you woke / As you walked, dark-souled, in a forest alone, / As trees stirred calling to a hidden mine – / That never-ending dream – / Could it end here? / Awake! Awake! Awake! Awake! / You still recall the melody / That as a child you closed your eyes to hear. / Break away, wake up, escape, / Act now / Don’t stop, don’t stop, don’t stop.
