Sometimes tracks are built-up from practically nothing and grow out to banging danceable scratch-music. The visuals which are done by VJ collective Subliminal Mess make the show complete. C-Mon & Kypski have already done a long tour for the promotion of their debut album ‘Vinyl Voodoo’ and are now on the road for the promotion of their new album ‘Static Traveller’.
They made a big impression at the South By Southwest Festival in Texas, during their first American tour.
With the record ‘Static Traveller’ the band has become musically even more extreme. The boundaries (if there are any) are being pushed forward. Where Vinyl Voodoo was a real studio album, Static traveller goes further; this album has been recorded with the whole band.
In 2005, C-mon & Kypski are involved in the Dutch version of the famous Rare Groove series. There is a cd included in the cd-pack, 'Dutch Rare Food', containing remixes of the originals, done by C-mon & Kypski. On this record, they co-operate with Pete Philly, Colin Benders (trumpet player of Relax), U-Gene, Oscar Harris and DJ Git Hyper. The songs on this cd all are about fast food snacks.
October 2006, the third official studio album is released, 'Where the wild things are'. On this album, they're pushing their boundaries even more. Again performing tracks with guest artists, such as the Amsterdam Klezmer Band,Voicst and Sadat X. In 2007, their explosive live show is one of the highlights of major Dutch festivals Noorderslag, Pinkpop and Lowlands.
Shalom
C-Mon & Kypski Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And life seems not alright
Keep moving on
Moving on
The fire will be your light
When people say you can't
Never ask em why
Keep moving on
The blocks are part of life
When dreams get faded
Disfigured and unaccepted
Shattered downgraded and stomped on
And become a laughing stock
Of the people
Like a circus show
Underrated and spat at like a dirty wall
It ain't time for you to quit if you strongly believe
It ain't time for you to grieve
It ain't time for you to leave
And watch em waste away
It's time for you to plead to the Father to craft and make a way
Raise them pillars of water on the red sea
So you can take a stroll on that dry ground
No time for back down
You ain't done fam
Until the fruits appear to freeze the crappy fear
You need not to adhere
To the pressure
Cause where the battle is tough victory is almost near
So don't focus on the rear
And get stuck on past defeats
Visualize your win and work towards attaining it
Work towards being King or Queen
When grey clouds turn to black
And life seems not alright
Keep moving on
Moving on
The fire will be your light
When people say you can't
Never ask em why
Keep moving on
Moving on
The blocks are part of life
Keep moving like a Jedi coming at a Darth Vader
A ship in stormy weather
A knight in shiny armor
Hoping to defeat that that deadly beast
Success is earned
Progress requires dedication and work
vision needs hope and faith
Determination despite the stinging pain
Turning a deaf ear to songs of shame
Never mind folks throwing dirt on your name
Focus on getting those goals done
let em keep that fame
Never front, never curse
Never hate,
When life seems like an empty treasure chest
Never waste time feasting on regrets
Setbacks occur homie I can relate
No lie, the pain is great
Feeling like calling it quit
I pray you never do it
Patience until your hard work bears fruit
Maintain your wit
Visualize your win and work towards attaining it
Work towards being King or Queen
When grey clouds turn to black
And life seems not alright
Keep Moving on
Moving on
The fire will be your light
When people say you can't
Never ask em why
Keep moving on
Moving on
The blocks are part of life
