I planned to stay for 3 months. I ended up living there for 4 years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">The world I encountered there was nothing like what I expected. No utopia. It was rough, harsh, petty, occasionally brutally violent, and always full of contradiction, confusion and trauma. At the same time, amongst all that, it was also profoundly hopeful and often astonishingly beautiful in ways no tired hippy clich\u00e9 could ever evoke.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Given my previous two releases anyone paying attention might have expected me to write some heartfelt poetry and set it to some evocative clicks and clacks. However, somehow, in midst of it all, it felt more right and made more sense to create an obnoxious cartoon Kestrel &#8211; KEZ &#8211; write bars about it all through his eyes, and slap it over some bangers. KEZ therapy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Big love to <strong>Illinformed<\/strong>, one of the best to do it without doubt. <strong>Dirty Dike, Jam Baxter, Smellington Piff, Ronnie Bosh, Leaf Dog, BVA<\/strong> and <strong>Sammy B-Side<\/strong> who all came through with mad features and the team at HF for supporting the project, and <strong>Monsta<\/strong> who captured my twisted imagination perfectly in his illustrations. Above all love to everyone that&#8217;s part of that time and continues to be a part of the worlds that we grew out of it. Bene Babez this one 4 u.&#8221; <strong>~ Mr Key<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">KEZ is out today, available on a limited 12\u201d Gatefold vinyl w\/ accompanying 12-page comic book inlay. You can stream it across DSPs and also in its entirety on YouTube, with animated illustrations for each song courtesy of <strong>Kapi Kurtaran. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><a href=\"https:\/\/shop.high-focus.com\/collections\/mr-key-illinformed\">\u2018KEZ\u2019 OUT NOW!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload aligncenter size-full wp-image-20926\" src=\"https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE.png\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271440%27%20height%3D%271440%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%201440%201440%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%271440%27%20height%3D%271440%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE-66x66.png 66w, https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE-200x200.png 200w, https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE-400x400.png 400w, https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE-800x800.png 800w, https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE-1200x1200.png 1200w, https:\/\/www.high-focus.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/KEZ-BUNDLE.png 1440w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MR KEY &amp; ILLINFORMED \u2018KEZ\u2019 OUT NOW!
