We put together a virtual “jam session” with musicians from all over the world!  Music was inspired by Galt MacDermot’s amazing “Coffee Cold”.  Handsome Boy Modeling School (Prince Paul and Dan the Automator ) flipped that song with J-Live and Roisin Murphy from Moloko and called it “The Truth”.

It’s AMAZING what you can do nowadays!

Lyrics

Dumbfoundead

A kid at the pawn shop just bought his first drum machine from the slums but them buttons will take him to another kingdom

A woman humming in a kitchen in Brazil while 50 tenants listen by sticking their heads outside the window sill 

This shit is real, hear the sounds across the land, no name brands, woman and man jam on pots and pans

A musician with lost dreams, sittin’ on concrete, playing his heart out on missing guitar strings

Street performers for a quarter put on the show of their life, an emcee gets put on the spot, rocks it and tears up the mic

The human instrument, reaching continents in long distances, no need for sophisticated systems for us to listen in

Countries at war, expressing hate through their aggression, while two musicians on each side are havin’ a jam session

Whether both of ‘em know it or not, they are collaborating, you never know which way your music is navigating

Esna

Sing your heart out, let your soul be heard

Move to the rhythm to the groove of the drum beat

Chill to the lines, disappear in the moment

Fly away, persuade all the madness

Just bounce, just sway, just listen

Herbal T

La música es un sonido supersónico

Y es por eso que no creo lo que leo en el periódico

Presenta un mundo dividido y tóxico

Pero ahora por los cables fiberópticos yo me comunico

Así el mundo se pone chico, si no me entiendes yo te lo explico

Whether you in the Bronx and you like to spit bars and rock clubs

Or Mumbai playin’ sitars and tablas

The music is a way we escape, heal and grow

And you ain’t gotta speak the language if you wanna feel the flow

Olha só rapaz, a gente vai a gente vem

Mas o ritmo é coisa todo mundo sempre tem

Tudo bem, faço música com colaboradores

Globais utilizando piano voces tambores

E mais es un laso que nos une hasta el infinito

The rhythms in us it travels wherever we go

Esna

Let the music take you, let your mind take you

Way to find a way to need a way to a brighter day

Don’t let it stop in you, don’t let it die in you

Breathe, just breathe

Just fly away, persuade all the madness

Just bounce, just sway, just listen

Dumbfoundead

Across the seas I hear piano keys playin’

Translating languages through the rhythms and beats bangin’ a universal exchange of personal pains and joys

It started with a verse, each person just came and joined in

Some are complete strangers, some only teenagers

All of us creators, we are the dreammakers

Internationally transmittin’ through bandwidth

Passin’ this band’s passion so the masses can jam with us

All are invited to play, none are required to pay

Let the virus spread, inspire heads, go pirate away

This is that free music, for people who need music

Just listen and breathe to it, I hope that you feel movement

Different souls around the globe, connected through sound makin’

They set the foundation now we take it to groundbreakin’

Everybody played their part and now we have one song

This is how an unheard voice becomes strong

Esna

Sing your heart out, let your soul be heard

Move to the rhythm to the groove of the drum beat

Chill to the lines, disappear in the moment

Fly away, persuade all the madness

Just bounce, just sway, just listen…
