Insufficient funds no way are you getting in Card just declined no way are you getting in You ain't on the guest list not tonight you ain't getting in Insufficient funds no way are you getting in I can feel the future falling in Fuck sake man I need to quit Feel the city rain melt my skin Stop ya playing get away with it Machines make my throat burn Any little thing you got to help me Drone strike on home turf I ain't out tonight can't nobody tempt me Getting No replies get away with them Cut teeth like a cheap gem How'd u stop the burn under ya Eyelids Stuff my pockets till I'm leaving Sideways Stopped smoking 6 months on and I'm still prang Shook a boy down n i say shukran Bossman Knew I was a thief from a glance I owe too much why I'm low too much Nowadays these guys know too much Aint got much so I Burn that clutch Ain't pay for much my fingers touch Wanna get past and a man don't budge What's the fuss man I'm tryna buss Gotta dash stush love Adrenaline rush Dash that legs that can't get touched Drag me back instore I won't open up my coat Pack of cheese ready meal and a kettle cos mine broke I was just tryna cope Without the roads or suit n coat Then no lie I realised Real eyes had me scoped Visas, passports n papers Chatting bout Lemme see your ID Security policy Tryna break me Run your pockets if you tryna leave Give a fake address I only carry keys Let me go tho they knew I was trying it Put it on front Street do as I please Insufficient funds

Make sure u keep it locked through the lockdown Cos I got the medicine On my last legs Bust a violent step Wanna come around me what’s your status Isolation OCD what’s your status UK run by crusaders Barely hiding that they hate us Wanna come around me what’s your status Isolation OCD what’s your status I'm alive I don't feel alive Chest getting tight like bomb pesticide Got me stressin no more lessons wanna override Fear is the killer I don't let em Inside Where the rats at where the rats I hear the rats in the walls Lookin at my body wanna feast on it all I don't frett crowds Just scared of being in em Till the get down Get round ere no crease in em What a let down Bin out here since street rhythm Was the best crowd LF Shalt combine kill em Bring ya mask round Like them teeth in your dreams Get tooken out got me splittin at the seams What's the verdict now Still ain't matching up the themes Guess its in n out I ain't in to that tryna fix up my features Like I'm C list And I'm stricken out Got me second guessing Feel infected Guess I'm sitting down Yeah you can take it home with you I don't need it now Keep it in your test vial mutate suttin that could reconcile Peel off the skin Say we ain’t no kin Take a deep breath now can you keep it sucked in This the death of now So could you let me rest out Stay inside sitting upside my own head Tone deaf cold flesh getting old don't guilt me can’t let it tilt me Anything to feel less filthy Washing on my hands till they melting Silence in the city got me wishing it was built in I’m feeling fine but my skin is dry ima moisturise time pass me by When we come outside shine like the skies tell a ruling class to get acclimatised.

White devil with a skin fade Set levels we don't talk about the sins mate coat looks posh but it's holding back a cheap blade Sick made never really mattered what the lick made Always needed more Wanna come around You better sekkle like a score Didn't hear a sound but my boys bang doors I'm a tall drink of water so the drip is more a pour I don't give a fuck about couture Gully every season Keep you shooketh to the core My name in your mouth like a sore Looking for me tryna cook me couldn't swallow man raw Don't Pause A lotta man chatty hit the stand and start a podcast I don't need your views let’s just see who will and won't last Handle this like gentleman or do a what what lad I .Sever .ties. I'm never paralysed I'ma type a guy to check your Nike size Ferry weather tides tuggy step aside One touch divide think it's suttin I don't recognise Corner kids bored so quick to bore up Get em on a clover for their poor luck grey biddy British streets nothing to get but caught up It's not complicated just blame us for how we brought up It's awful Like try blame me for bringing fisticuffs Only time I been touched is Thorns in the snickets cut If you ever find a future for us shout me innit bruv Since trevor caught first blood in kidulthood I been nicking stuff head down in bear markets Odds stacked on my back paint a fair target I stare past it You said money is a game we’re forced to play Can't blame me when I found some ways round it Grandma asking if I still believe in god Told her I can’t see em in this inner city smog lad

about

Having recently released a collaboration between Endgame & DÆMON (London and Oakland, respectively) and a wealth of cross-continental remixes, Infinite Machine has always championed the internet as a place that can foster unlikely musical alliances online. This is more true than ever with their newest signee, Gressive, who met via Twitter. The duo, comprised of vocalist lloydfears and avant-club producer SHALT, quickly found common ground in a desire to create texturally rich music that’s full of physicality. Both could see the potency of the human voice and it’s unique ability to create organic feedback within digital compositions. The initial fruits of their collaborative project is a self-titled EP that’ll grab you by the throat.

Gressive EP vehemently announces it’s arrival with the Insufficient Funds. SHALT weaves intense bass snarls and crescendos of mallet hits in the refrain, contrasted with an arpeggiated, grime-inflected B part. lloydfears’ vocals are urgent and enraged as he delivers lyrical nods to the late Mark Fisher, (“I can feel the future falling in”). It’s not hard to read lloyd’s lyrics on a more macroeconomic level than simple denial of nightclub admission; “Insufficient funds no way are you getting in. Card just declined no way are you getting in.” SHALT’s approach to interdependent sound design is on full display... more
