Pa zuji kakor tele v nova vrata, se sprašuje, zakwa rabmo umetnost, zajebano kulturo, Pa kwa je sploh to (se sprašuje) saj to je itak isto, ne, oboje gnilo zajedalstvo Naš dnar žrejo, naš dnar žrejo, prasci, naš dnar žrejo! no, naj ns predstavm, prosm lepo: mi smo tisti kekci, ki čutijo namesto vas, zato - rabte nas! Ker – kapital ne čut, on ma samo en cilj, cilj je denar, denar, denar je kapital, zatret hoče človeka po človeku, rad bi uniformiral, u, prhaja mu na to, rad bi gentrificiral, iz vas naredu lutke, ki delajo zato, da žrejo, žrejo, da delajo, zjutri iz pižame zvečer nazaj u pižamo, on ne bi v Dramo, on bi v Kolosej, on bi te cukraste srečice, iz mozga da vam sprži (jebene) kokice. No, naj ns predstavm, prosm lepo: mi smo the culture squad (yo, hello) - tuki smo, da vas zvlečemo odtod, mi smo vaše srčne dame, (yo, hello) tuki smo, da vas zvlečemo odtod, mi smo the culture squad (yo, hello) - Mi smo taki kot vi, sam še nočmo dat srca, denar ne more bit edino, kar nas obvladuje, ocenjuje, mi še ne damo upanja, svojga sveta, tuki smo, da vam predočmo, kako to paše, mislt zase, stat za sabo, ljubit, plesat, živet svoje geste, to ste že davn pozabil, a ne, kar še edino veste, je, kdaj trava se obrase, a ne Sistem vam turi v glave, v riti, kar sistem misli, naj vam paše, zanaša se, da boste praznl flaše, gledal sam še nase, počasi pozabil nase Počas - pozabil na možgane če dolg ne bodo vidl hrane, se bodo itak posušil No, naj ns predstavm, prosm lepo: mi smo the culture squad (yo, hello) - tuki smo, da vas zvlečemo odtod, mi smo vaše srčne dame, (yo, hello) tuki smo, da vas zvlečemo odtod, da vas zadegamo na svoje rame,(yo, hello) Yo, da svet spet dobi barve, dimenzije, da se nazaj u človeka vredn lajf spet zlije, da si povrne dušo, majnd, lepoto in srce, ker že, že kruh, a tolk kot kruh krvavo rabmo tudi – vrtnice vrtnice vrtnice...

DNEVNIK {TRISTAN} Tm k živim se rojevajo otroci, porodnišn’ca, a ne Pred njo božji otroci moljo - vse pravice pridržane Pa Snaga je tuki, naše smeti, Vse kar pridelamo, vse kar podelamo Iz dnevne sobe gledam na zapor, Yo Povšetovaaaa (Vsi: povšetova!)

Komšiluk, komšiluk, pun čudnih grafita sve manje je borbe a sve više kiča. Lepi in prazni lepi in prazni, na zunaj prijazni, a notri - golazni! Nasmešek kot nož, vrž ga u koš, pokaž raj zobe, če strinjaš se ne! HPD: Pleši, pleši, črni kos, kak’ bom plesal, če sem bos? Kupil si pa čevlje bom, polke tri zaplesal bom.

Otrok spletne fetišizacije. V dobi amerikanizacije. Nazorske fabrikacije. Medijske manipulacije. Duševne kolonizacije. Evropske dezintegracije. Lenobne alienacije. Imam nerazrešene frustracije. Sem del sistemske eksploatacije. Ekonomske segregacije. Nesposoben denarne akumulacije. Poln zavisti, dehumanizacije, strahu, militarizacije. Populistične provokacije. Igre moči, masturbacije. Nasilne deložacije. Vojne eskalacije. Materialistične fiskacije. Lepotne preokupacije. Lajf brez aspiracije. Prekomerne stimulacije, od drog, medikalizacije. Ej, to niso zajebancije! {4x}: {HPD}: MI delamo galamo / {ALL}: In super se imamo! MI DELAMO GALAMO!

about

The technoburlesque show Image Snatchers is a series of constantly changing and evolving episodes, now already in its sixth season. It is a modern take on burlesque, packed with witty feminist-inspired campy and queer humour and often critically commenting on the current socio-political landscapes and events both locally and beyond. The numbers enact actual political figures, like Angela Merkel, Melania Trump, and the local culture minister on one hand, or more general but psychologically detailed roles on the other, such as a chauvinist macho, a slow-walking grandma, or an android with a drinking problem. The music is sometimes used as a ready-made and an important reference to specific past era, scene or its vibe. Lip-syncing makes an appearance too and so do electronic bootleg edits or remix tracks. Popular songs are sung live, sometimes with lyrics changed to various degrees, whereas at other times completely original music is made by the collective. Different languages have so far been used – besides Slovenian and English obviously, we had lyrics sung in Portuguese, French, Chinese, Italian, German, and Serbo-Croatian in one way or another.

Out of the three tracks on the so called mainside part of this EP, two of them are rapped in Slovenian. “Vrtnice” (Roses) is a poetic but outspoken take on dismissive attitudes towards artists in contemporary politics and public life in general. It says that artists (“we are the culture squad”) are needed in a society to make everyone feel the life in colours, with a present mind and heart, for “roses” are needed as much as bread. “Dnevnik” (Daily news) features a bunch of performers-turned-MCs, sarcastically and critically touching upon various aspects of daily life: abortion, immigration, consumerism, capitalism, and mental health among others. In the refrain, it features a French-Portuguese performer in the role of an immigrant trying to sing widely known Slovene nursery rhymes while threatening with stereotypical threats attributed to immigrants: stealing jobs, kidnapping wives, and corrupting children.
