Sun up, sky light up in the morning Unfolding right before my eyes For this chance forever thankful A simple smiling for this life We are the blades of grass a rolling Like a sea of sweet green leaves A breeze blows through the meadow Doing dances with the trees And I feel ready Rapapampam ready Ready Rapapampam ready Ready Rapapampam ready Ready And I feel ready Rapapampam ready Ready Rapapampam ready Ready Rapapampam ready Ready Look Oh issa vibe That's my posse We inside Upon the riddim we collide For your involvement Yes we strive Waist to waist All the gals inna place Got the taste of the leaf life in they face Hip to hip no man gone trip It's all love when we drop that drum n bass Prince of the 2 step Queen of the waist whine With the king of the bassline Imma do this here till I'm outta time And this shit gone age like fine wine We gonna burn up And still turn up If you turn out We gone wild out If you groove like this I'm groove like that It's exchange of energy Collective synergy Ready I'm still sitting on the sunny sand burning The waves roll back into the deep The big blue ocean forms a circle She wraps her steady arms around me We are the blades of grass a rolling Like a sea of sweet green leaves A breeze blows through the meadow Doing dances with the trees And I feel ready Rapapampam ready Ready Rapapampam ready Ready Rapapampam ready Ready And I feel ready Rapapampam ready Ready Rapapampam ready Ready Rapapampam ready Ready They say if you stay ready You ain't gotta get ready

Feel like I'm on a funky expedition Just for capital for instance Monkey on my back Tuition Thank god I got a raise Hold up I gotta pay For the same petty shit But it cost us more today Lorty lorty hit forty Raising shorties in californi Takes patience without the glory Never ending story Ain't no pats on the back Ain't no survivor awards We play the game To play the game So give ya self an applause Learn to breathe Step away Let it simmer for a sec Peace of mind we gone protect In the tribe we invest Good vibes My god all I got to give is vibes Fuck that self-righteous shit I'm a muthafuckin vibe I can teach you my love Cuz I've been through the pain I seen the ugliest thangs And yet the sunshine remains So you can wilt if you want Or you can tilt this sauvignon And we cheers to the moments Knowing life will go on So hold strong (chorus) Troublesome world Trouble in mind Heavy the load Struggle to find A beat in this life for a moment Just give me a moment To learn how to breathe Still as the sun Holding a seed Under then shade of a stone fruit tree And we'll provide you with A little something to ride to So all my kinfolk can slide thru Gather up ya pain Shit the size of a kaiju Leave it all at the entrance Let's evolve our intention And dissolve our inhibitions For a moment bearing witness To the greatness of balance In existence No malice with intention I'm proud of my failures Creating a clearer vision Yea the crisis existential The therapy instrumentals The rarity dropping gems Without a teaching credential Little homies say unc Some just call me O.G. By all means I'm just a lover Steady planting the seed I spend a lot of time feet up in the ocean For my bottom line is steady as the sea That's how I'm coastin Be a rapid that's roaring Or a condor soaring Everything is everything Reversing my mis-education like Lauryn Be a tsunami roaring Or a phoenix that's soaring Everything is all things Plant a seed that's golden and hold strong (chorus)

There are songs We will sing For a thousand years Melodies humming For all time Echoing back Nothing ever really dies Nothing ever stays the same, no (chorus) 'Cause if you listen in To the whispering wind Whatever's the matter Just don't matter We can enjoy this Roll up another chorus Work the bass loud Pull the party out Big up to the beautiful loser Lovely is the shade of a big tree Born in the shadow of a mountain Lovely is the shade of a big tree It's time Life is just a day in the sunshine Step into the blazing sunshine Step into a ray of the sunshine yeah (chorus).

(chorus) Although The road Is long and windy Yeah we gonna get together Up to Jenne Over the river Little bit farther Gualala Though the road so far So rocky We're not too tired to make it We make it Up to Jenner Over the river Little bit farther Gualala Wha da da dey Man gotta work But man gotta play Some gal meditate Some gal pray At the end of the day we'll find our way Balance ain't easy Balance is work Balance is knowin what life is worth It's easy to lose to capital gains Forget your purposes stuck in a lane Proverbial chains We the people Fuck that My brothers my equals Dub that We the roots and the sequel Run it back We the stems and the seeds Been knocked flat And yet we rise on the other side Otherwise other guys Wouldn't catch a Burnt vibe Oh yeah we slide to the other side Verbalize stimulize And real eyes realize (chorus) Wha da da dey Road is rocks Pave the way Shovel sand And shift the course Be precise without remorse Centrifugal force Yea we swerve Dodge the bullshit And spit them verbs That's an action Makin it happen flashin hope And positive mackin Peep this game mayne See your main frame Gotta focus on what's good And your main thang Gotta rearrange and adjust To could and should In this sweet life Yea we comin in comin in Comin in from that cold We gone stand tall And stand bold Groove so proper Gualalalaaah (chorus)

about

Sol Connector is the result of a massive collaboration of the whole Burnt community: the musicians, our producer and engineer Calvin Turnbull, the Oz Farm crew, and all of our family and friends. In order to complete production we launched a successful Kickstarter campaign (www.kickstarter.com/projects/burnt/burnt-the-new-album), and without the support of our backers this album would not have been possible. We are filled with joy and gratitude for the opportunity to share this album with the world.

For nearly a decade Burnt has been dreaming of recording an album at The Domes on Oz Farm in Point Area, California. Located on a remote part of the Mendocino County coast, Oz Farm (www.ozfarm.com) is 'off-the-grid', using solar and wind power for all its operations. "The Domes" are two geodesic redwood structures surrounded by a meadow and coast redwood forest, and located on the Garcia River, which flows through the farm.

The challenge of recording at The Domes included the need to hand carry all of our music equipment, recording gear, food, etc. across the river by way of a narrow foot bridge (which Rob our drummer helped to install), and then down the Trail to The Domes. Another challenge was power: we had to bring Rob's solar power set-up including batteries and panels from his nearby property, carry them across the river, and set them up at The Domes, along with a back-up generator (which thankfully we rarely had to use). All of the hard work in setting up was well worth it.
