SMOKE AND MIRRORS V1. We're only human, can we turn the tide? Teach our children, but we teach them lies With strength in numbers we'll revolutionize But what is real and what is only noise Chorus: The heat is on the cracks have shown It's all smoke and mirrors, yeah The veil is drawn, but not for long It's all smoke and mirrors yeah, yeah-e-eh V2. They act the part but only time will tell They play the card and they do it well I see it every day, oh, do we know it when they Close our eyes to keep us hypnotized. Chorus: The heat is on the cracks have shown It's all smoke and mirrors, yeah The veil is drawn, but not for long It's all smoke and mirrors yeah, yeah-e-eh Bridge / Chorus / End

about

"Smoke and mirrors" is an alternative, soul track with strong bass and drum grooves. The production reflects the song's edgy, retro feel and its overall message, which is an exploration of how media shapes our reality/social consciousness and how we can push back against the polarization and division that keeps us from having meaningful discussions.


While it is not a world fusion project, this is the second song from my new EP supported by the Toronto Arts Council that reimagines Southeast Asian traditional instruments in a neo-soul context. It features a unique vocal arrangement inspired by gamelans and gongs from Eunice's Southeast Asian heritage as well as the kulintang and bansuri flute.
