Asian Dub Foundation - Speed Of Light

Single from the band Asian Dub Foundation the great imponence of the mix of drum & bass and some punk with asiatic folklore music that makes a sense of nu school and strange good rythm. They're great musicians.This is from the disc Punkara released in 2008. I don't own ADF and their disc, i'm putting them because thy are good.

[@SKarlsson]

Excellent track. Brings me back a bit to the 90's and the Excursions In Ambience discs.

[@nicolabertoli5904]

For me it’s the best track of Punkara album.

[@andres706]

Something i love from this band is that they make real music

Resumo

[@LunaTricksTelevision]

LYRICS There's a devil on my shoulder making me dance There's a spring in my step but a heavy heart Appointments and deadlines sprout up like weeds Can't tell what I want from what I need Find a place in my head that's less wrong than right No more living, living at the speed of light It's been 10,000 years since we first walked upright Built a home, built a lamp that will tell day from night Take from this world that was made Before it's chewed up and spat up on the way In a world that's forever inventing the wheel Look for guilty and changing that's gotta stay real Find a place in my head that's less wrong than right No more living, no more living at the speed of light And if you follow the whims of the man at the top End up stealing and dealing and losing their blood Chasing and chasing a dream you once had it's mad See the circles you ran Gonna run to the city of permanent joy All deadlines fall victim and time is destroyed By the place in my head that's less wrong than right No more living, no more living at the speed of light You might also like Target Practice Asian Dub Foundation No Fun Asian Dub Foundation Flyover Asian Dub Foundation You sell the freedom at gunpoint I ain't gonna buy You shout in my ear i just stare at the sky From the place in my head that's less wrong than right I ain't living, I ain't living at the speed of light

"Place in my head that's less wrong than right..." Sometimes you just have to make choices that aren't easy.

[@SwiggleMcJiggle]

Every musician has some kind of influence. We grow up listening to music and decide what we like as we grow older and those of us who chose to make music have artists who have insipred and influenced them.

[@mugginsmonkeyboy]

some people appear to not hear the sitar in this?

[@GOLU971]

@koyunbaba73 The female vocalist part is pure Arabic I think. The music is from 1980s hindi films. But that's just me

[@ziedblel1298]

This is not Arabic she is Berber Amazigh from Tunisia she lives in France

[@paulrose]

Could anybody enlighten me on what the stringed instrument that plays the main hook is called? Im really interested in instruments from around the world and love the sound of the strings.

[@borednow]

just normal violins set to arabic style of tuning, look for arabic music on youtube and you will see they use normal violins, the audio here probably was modified in some software though i think, see kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6anZ6tjhp5rack

[@samuelbroudy9420]

Save for Australia, all land east of the Caucasian mtns = Asia, friend. God bless Dennis Prager!

[@anaatope]

^^ adf!!

[@koyunbaba73]

@prathik728 definitely some Hindu and Persian influences in the music; especially in the female vocalist's part.

[@prathik728]

@WolfangAurus oh ok. they are good

[@smokin_moses]

@prathik728 and I could swear I hear a little bit of Indian influence as well. ^^

[@danikung2204]

KZbin always makes stop and asks me if i want to continue listening is it possible to stop that?

[@Ak0tnik]

To be honest, I have no idea. It would be cool to do that, I have the same issue.

[@Ak0tnik]
