How Did It Get This Wrong? (feat. Voltage Poetry Project) by Observatory published on 2021-12-12T23:03:52Z It was on 17th December 2020 when VPP and I first exchanged messages, discussing the possibility of a collaboration. Fast-forward precisely one year to 17th December 2021 and here we are, launching the fruits of our labour upon the unsuspecting masses. I've always been an admirer of VPP's "synth noir" productions with their unique lyrics full of European cultural reference points and I've always fancied having a crack at working with singer, Keith's trademark vocals. So, as you can imagine, I was delighted when the opportunity to do so presented itself but, if truth be told, I've surprised myself a bit with what I came up with (musically) to accompany the vocal he sent me... I think it's fair to say that the end product is neither a typical VPP track nor a typical Observatory track. I sincerely hope you enjoy it nonetheless.

Lyrics and vocal by Voltage Poetry Project; Music and production by Observatory; Photography by Voltage Poetry Project. "I was high, as the flying eye Looking down upon Teflon town - A place that I just could not stick, I could escape; I was well equipped. Then one day, who knows when or why? I became the disenfranchised, Angry, young, at the kitchen sink Though Amis or Osborne, I don’t think. Tell me How did it get this wrong? Where did it go so wrong? Now I walk, and there is this talk Of redress against our progress, Somewhere Hare and Mercurio Warned that it all could go. How did it get this wrong? Where did it go so wrong?"

Helen x 2022-12-19T15:50:10Z Comment by betterlate Love this! The atmosphere you have captured is touchable! Beats run you through corridors, the slightly panicked voice is wonderfully timed and it's short statements give a short-of-breath feel, it enduces excitement and panic. What a rush!
