We switch the mood just a little bit more To test the public attitude Control their attitude We flip the switch of a generator To test the public attitude Control the public attitude The scroll that’s never ending The scroll that’s never ending Keep pushing, pushing down Punch sideways, punch on down News feeds the mouths of a generation Nutritious points of view Conforming and confused Scroll down through the life of another We already know what you’re going to discover Take a little time to remind yourself All your information ends up on our shelves The scroll that’s never ending The scroll that’s never ending Keep pushing, pushing down Punch sideways, punch on down F-E-E-D M-E, F-E-E-D M-E, F-E-E-D M-E This fix will give you just a little bit more But you’re never ever gonna learn But you’re never ever gonna learn This fix will give you just a little more time But you’re never ever gonna learn No you’re never ever gonna learn This fix will give you just a little bit more - and more - and more

Space dust deep inside our bones Saturn’s rings inside your nose Black holes hide inside our eyes Dead suns set inside our minds Million, billion light years past When we all were born at last Ever expanding into unknown Infinite space but we are not alone Radio waves sieve into Interplanetary vacuum Electricity flows round Microcosmic battleground In stars we formed lightyears away Shared Particles from what we’re made In stars we formed lightyears away Shared Particles from what we’re made Cross time and space to get to you Your heart is iron, we are you In stars we formed lightyears away Shared Particles from what we’re made

Spinning around, around the sun Doing a job that’s never done. Wondering why, you’re the only one Spinning around, around the sun CHORUS ——————————- Trying to do things you’ve never done Hoping you’re no the only one Thinking of all that you’ve never won Spinning around, around the sun CHORUS ——————————- Around the sun You keep sinning around and around

Defragment to survive It’s time to look alive Can’t run, can’t hide It’s time to look alive De-think, unwind Defragment to survive It rains, it pours It falls down on us all Deaf eyes, blind ears We drown in data, fags and beers Got to get up - wired and tired Defragment to survive It’s time to look alive

about

Even when artists say they they’ve discovered who they are on their latest record, it doesn’t really work that way. You never stop striving to discover more about yourself - that’s just being human; and it’s something that two-headed electronic rock party outfit AK/DK understand. As Ed Chivers and Graham Sowerby announce the release of their third album Shared Particles, it’s what makes the dual drums and synth pairing such an exciting prospect.

Shared Particles propels itself relentlessly forwards, thrusting onwards in pursuit of a finish point that may never come. The two-piece have always loved the motorik of the 70’s like Kraftwerk and Can, bands that revelled in the journey as much as the destination. They also describe themselves as “like a chunkier Devo” – and, yes, there’s a warmth to the textures of their music from the modular synths and other self-built pedals in their set up, while there’s a driving rhythmic constancy too.
