Wax Progressive (Intro​)​, with Bluz

from Wax Progressive: Equilibria Vol. 2 by Soulganic

lyrics

Say cool kids
Consumers and connoisseurs of cosmic far-out music
How does this groove do for your ear drums?

When the digital bang becomes too crisp to sip
When you need some of that analogue thick
Where do you go to get your fix?

That warm, heavy bass dropping anchors
And chords in your soul
Make you want to reach back for that eight-track
Miss the feel of the reel to reel
The heat of plastic casette tape ejected from the deck
That crackle in the vinyl
Like a fingerprint
It's distinctive

Like when the night wind learned to whisper tunes
Into the grooves of your grandfather's old dusty records
When you had to use those two buttons and two fingers
To get your tape to record
The radio jam spilling it's hot samples
From that volcano of a boom box

It's like the wind

Like the music never knew how to stop
Like it was waxing poetic
Seeking to touch the slim of the tape
To the wide of the magnetic
So you can listen to us now
Clear
Effective

So now we wax progressive
Rewinding our downloads to the streams
So they seem to have a message when we play them back
So they fall back into the crate
Into the case
Into the sleeve
Into our soul
Where they live

Because we
We here to push that vintage sound forward
Right here we
We wax progressive

(Hear our rhythm in our soul that's the way we live
Hear the language that we speak call it wax progressive)
