timorl I think compulsory paying for music is a travesty, so I paid for this.

Also, the energy on these tracks properly slaps. Favorite track: Free.mp3 (The Pirate Bay Song).

bruno.0711 a fine mixture of party tunes and society criticism,
brain dead on one end, philosophical on the other. Favorite track: Boom! feat. Džambo Agušev.

All Equal feat. BEE2 (free) 03:30
Change needs time and time needs action Get out on the streets start a chain reaction Raise your head up! Don’t wait for a cue! When, if not now? Who, if not you? Fuck presidents, fuck parliaments, fuck governments On every continent same lame arguments Never interfere with their master plans They gonna send you rubber bullets and the riot vans So, slip from the grip don’t fall to their trick There’s only way down when pushed from a cliff Bring it all out, put your cards on the table Shout it out loud, let them hear what we’re made of Here comes the raidDon’t be afraid Tear gas grenade can’t stop this parade Down on the streets Is the sound of the people Each one is different but we are all equal

Yes I left my motherland and went so far To get a good job and a brand new car Very smart phone, hundred inch TV American hits on my MP3 I’m living in diaspora, I’m very proud Of my house with the pool, master credit card Thick gold chain hangs around my neck Mercedes Benz parked in the back Don't believe the hype I never beat my wife I’m not a macho man who would stab you with a knife I live by your rules every single day But some things are written in my DNA But when I taste rakija In my head anarchia Back to original shape Just cannot escape from Balkan No escape from Balkan

One More Time (free) 04:33
No I don’t wanna’, really don’t wanna’ put my head down and wait Trouble to come, making a drama we should not think of it later Sound the alarm, spread all around We gotta hear it and wake up Future and the history designed One more time Release the pressure Change your direction One more time Listen this rhyme, every time Africa, Europe and Asia In every land, all that I found Spinning manipulation So many signs, open your mind We gotta hear it and wake up Future and the history designed One more time Release the pressure Change your direction One more time.

Milk is really healthy is it good for your bones? Who invented rock Beatles or The Stones? For AIDS or a cancer is there any remedy? Bin Laden still alive Who killed John Kennedy? Is Bigfoot real? Do vampires bite? The end of the world is gonna start tonight Has NASA been lying about a trip to the moon? Boom shakalaka boom Shakalaka boom boom Which came first chicken or the egg? Can anybody tell me do I have to beg? Is there a life on Mars? Have you seen alien? Santa Claus exists and is he vegetarian? Are we under control of the New World Order? If there is global warming why it’s getting colder? Everybody says that the end comes soon Boom shakalaka boom Shakalaka boom boom

Evolution is over, just start your browser Dig your gold and do what you’re told I guess we are lost and completely numb We dance to a beat of a loud war drums People once again will show their rage But this time only on a Facebook page This is so wrong on so many levels New time needs new kind of rebels This is not a free world Just a free market Red flag on the floor Became a red carpet It’s not a free world now It’s just a free market Red flag on the floor now Became a red carpet Revolution has failed, no easy answer Back to your job, keep pushing the knob Looking for a needle in a stack of needles Learn how to think before it gets illegal Walk like a zombie on a haunted trail Brain dead men ain’t telling tales This is so wrong on so many levels Coz’ new time needs new kind of rebels This is not a free world Just a free market Red flag on the floor Became a red carpet It’s not a free world now It’s just a free market Red flag on the floor now Became a red carpet

Stand up and face tha’ Law manipulator You gain control if you disobey them Fight now against tha’ Your space invader Making this reality So close to insanity Rise up against tha’ Indoctrinator Forget a lie of hate generator Fight now against tha’ Chaos creator Suicide economy Of ruthless minority We are so quite Let’s make a riot Must break a rule Set the roof on fire We are so quiet now We are so quiet Make a riot Set the roof on fire Be tough and break tha’ Contaminator Your life destroyer wrong navigator No time to wait Better sooner than later Must resist the gravity and show some humanity We are so quite Let’s make a riot Must break a rule Set the roof on fire We are so quiet now We are so quiet Make a riot Set the roof on fire Better don’t be silent when they keep you quiet Tape is on your mouth All around is fire Now it seems the world They just don’t care Now humanity is everywhere

Alarm Song (free) 02:58
This time we go bigger we go trigger the alarm Listen everybody doesn’t matter who you are Stand strong with the brothers and together we go harder Who’s gonna stop us we don’t bow to anyone Do you really need someone to tell you what you wanna nothing’s gonna happen if you’re waiting on a corner Yes we go together we go trigger the alarm Move with the groove and jump to this sound Stay, don’t give it up Wait, don’t give it up This one gonna trigger the alarm Ring the alarm (You wanna wake up in the morning, You gotta ring the alarm) Is it hard to pull yourself together Make a move you can’t wait forever Must fight to make a future little bit better Every day is now or never This one is a big up for the rebels all around Jump little higher, get your feet above the ground Yes, we go together we go trigger the alarm Move with the groove and jump to this sound Stay, don’t give it up Wait, don’t give it up This one gonna trigger the alarm Ring the alarm

Hay Libertad (free) 03:25
Que no se calle la calle que sea frío el tambor que la locura arrase y quede uno de los dos Que no se pudra el intento y el oro pierda valor que la alegría dispare y no se rinda tu voz Llorar es de cobardes si lloras por este mundo no es demasiado tarde para burlar lo injusto Hay Libertad

24000 baci (free) 02:02
Con venti quatro mila baci oggi saprei perche’ l’amore vuole ogni tanto mille baci mille carezze all’ora all’ora Con venti quatro mila baci felici corrono le ore un giorno splendido perche’ ogni secondo bacio te. Niente bugie meravigliose frasi d’amore appassionate ma solo baci che do a te.. ye ye ye ye ye ye ye ye! Con venti quatro mila baci cosi’ frenetico e’ l’amore in questo giorno di follia ogni minuto e’ tutto mio Niente bugie meravigliose frasi d’amore appassionate ma solo baci che do a te... ye ye ye ye ye ye ye ye! Con venti quatro mila baci cosi’ frenetico e’ l’amore in questo giorno di follia ogni minuto e’ tutto mio Con venti quatro mila baci felici corrono le ore un giorno splendido perche’ Con venti quatro mila baci tu mi hai portato alla follia Con venti quatro mila baci ogni secondo e’ tutto mio Con venti quatro mila baci ogni secondo bacio te

about

Almost tree years after their last album, Dubioza Kolektiv return with “Happy Machine”, their seventh LP.

Inspiration for “Happy Machine” developed over two years by events that unfolded over that time – from Istanbul’s Gezi park protests (“All Equal”), the jailing of the founders of The Pirate Bay (“Free.mp3”), the Syrian refugee crisis and Europe’s shameful response to it. Album features guest appearances by Manu Chao, Benji Webbe from Skindred, Italian trumpet player and singer Roy Paci, Punjabi singer BEE2, Catalan ska-rumba band La Pegatina and Dzambo Agusev trumpet player from Macedonia. Songs are in English, Spanish, Punjabi and Italian.

What is a Happy Machine? A Happy Machine is, simply put, a Balkan moonshine contraption. This local firewater, called rakija, is distilled all over the countryside throughout the region. Grandfather has his own secret recipe, grandmother has her glass every morning for her health. Drinking fresh-hot rakija straight from the Happy Machine is known to cause instant happiness and other effects similar to an LSD adventure (exemplified in their music video “No Escape”). Yet, this age-old practice has been banned by the EU in recent years, requiring special permits even for producing small qualities for non-commercial domestic use. And has turned normal families into outlaws. “We thought it would help if we spelled out how to assemble a Happy Machine, so we put the blueprint on the cover.” Happy Machine is rant on the freedom of everything – speech, movement, ideas and knowledge, and the struggle of ordinary people trying to protect these freedoms from the relentless soul snatchers. “If we fail at that, at least we have the happy machine to drown our sorrows in.”

“There’s fiery polemic in the lyrics, but it’s all wrapped up in a frantic joie de vivre that’s as infectious as it is unique.” Kerrang! – Paul Travers
