The Mycelium Network 4

[INTRO — spoken, distorted radio FX] [PEDRO VOX] Trigger presents... THE MYCELIUM NETWORK.... [LOW BASS RUMBLE] You've stepped past the edge of the map... and. There is no way back. [BEAT DROP] [ad-libs mycelium wonderland samples] [VERSE 1] South side pressure, Dunedin rain, ODC signal running through the brain. Pedro in the shadows, Pan on the rise, Trigger at the doorway — watches the whole thing come alive. Cold harbour wind but the bass runs hot, Underground sound from a forgotten spot. Roots underneath the city above, Everything connected — that's the shit that we dug. You hear that pulse? (female response "yeah?) That's the network calling. You feel that bass? (female group response "yeah? ) That's the old world falling. One step through and the whole map bends, You don't lose yourself — you discover new ends. [PRE-HOOK] Close your eyes... Listen.... Underneath the concrete... Something's growing. [HOOK — CROWD KEMO CHANT] MYCELIUM! NETWORK! FOLLOW THE ROOTS! CONNECT! MYCELIUM! NETWORK! DUNEDIN! REPRESENT! [MALE AD-LIBS] ODC! (woah) PAN! (maybe) TRIGGER! (sometimes) PEDRO! (lately..) [VERSE 2] This ain't background music, this is underground transmission, one hundred and forty on the steep cliff full system demolition. [break down] Grime in the bloodstream, dub in the chest, South Island pressure, put the speakers to the test. Pedro's got the vision, Trigger brings the spark, Pan brings the voice from the edge of the dark. No straight lines here, snorted every pathway twist, Every voice connects to some memory that exists.. From warehouse nights on Bath Streets Rise to packing the streets with my own kind . If you're hearing this now, you're already halfway. [BUILD] [FEMALE — ECHO] How do I get back? [MALE] You don't. [FEMALE] Where does it lead? [MALE] Everywhere. [DROP] [HOOK] MYCELIUM! NETWORK! FOLLOW THE ROOTS! CONNECT! MYCELIUM! NETWORK! DUNEDIN! REPRESENT! [AD-LIBS] ODC! PAN'S! TRIGGER! TURN IT UP! [VERSE 3] No map. No guide. No safe route home. Just bass in the dark and a signal in your bones. The trees are pulsing, the concrete breathes, Something underneath is moving through the streets. You thought it was a song? Nah. It's a doorway. You thought you were listening? Nah. It's listening to you. [FINAL BUILD] [FEMALE — WHISPER] It's pulling me in... [MALE] Let it. [BEAT CUT] [MALE — DEEP] THE MYCELIUM NETWORK. [FINAL DROP] MYCELIUM! NETWORK! DUh NEED IN! CONNECT! MYCELIUM! NETWORK! FOLLOW THE ROOTS! BECOME THE SPORES! [OUTRO] [MALE — DISTANT] Trigger presents... The Mycelium Network. You don't get back. You connect.
