Hey Our Basement,
Don’t you ever feel like it’s all fake and disingenuous?
We’re addicted to the serotonin boost we get from ‘likes,’ but it’s time to laugh it off.
I wanted to write a song that would take the piss out of my generation and I.
Naturally, I went for the jugular of our fake Instagram lifestyle.
Putting a mirror to myself while also placing a mirror on the people surrounding me, “Superficial Hypocrite” is full of self-deprecating humour about the collective stupidity we’ve all fallen victim to.
My studio (Casa de Keith’s) was built using Bunz Trading Zone and a music trading group on Facebook. Listening with Alexa on my Echo, through my car stereos, everything I could find; I wrote, recorded, re-recorded, wrote, re-recorded, and repeated to get closer to the sound I heard in my head. By the time “Superficial Hypocrite” was recorded and mixed, I had put in thousands of hours of practice.
If you would be so kind as to please share this single far and wide!
KEITH MOSFET
Hello
Good Morning
Hi there. Must say I agree with the guy’s take, up there. It’s not only that, but there is a sheetload of it around. Overhyping, I mean.
Also, is that his real name? See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOSFET
I have a daily calender that has a word of the day on it. Todays word is pulchritude. I don’t think it reflects what it means.
It is a noun meaning physical beauty or comeliness.
If I’m not here tomorrow it’s because I told my wife I loved her for her pulchritudinous.
Haha! What a terrible word.
Good morning. That was a fun song/video up there.
“Pulchritudinousness” — pulchritudinous is what she is (the adjective). Great word.
Good morning all:)
Love the word a day calendar @Scott.
It has yet to rain here and it is already hot out so I am going straight to the garden to water but I will be back to listen and chat in a few hours. Hopefully my computer won’t cack out again and you will be waiting here for me
You’re correct Benoît, I realized I had used it incorrectly after I had posted it. Thank-you
A word that belies its appearance, its feel, is ‘jejune’. I have trouble remembering what it means.

Yes jejune sounds more joyous than dull.
Too flipping hot out there already. I still have spots to do but need to come inside for breakfast and respite.
I can see/hear the chorus of this song becoming a mantra for the youth.
Musically I am underwhelmed but that is just me.
Announcements of musicians coming to Nelson; Buffy Saint Marie, TPC, Jill Barber, Current Swell … Buffy is at a soft seat venue so it is more likely I will be able to do that show than going to the Spirit bar for the others.
I thought of the electronics when I saw mosfet
you saw him perform?
I meant when I saw his name was Mosfet
Ah, got it!
I have moved on/back to listening to @darbars Polaris long list. Next up is Wild Racoons most recent podcast.
you probably wont like this months podcast
She probably won’t like a bunch of my long list either. hehe
Oh ye of little faith!
I am trying hard to listen even when something grates on my nerves with it’s initial cords.
I am ordering prints of graduation pictures while I LISTEN to all that is put in front of me … I have not even used the skip button once!
and then Avril Lavigne comes on … trying hard!
Avril Lavigne? What are you listening to?
release radar … not sure how that happened.
over to Polaris
Ahh that makes more sense
thanks for getting me back on track!
between the computer issues i have been having and my frazzled self after all the grad stuff i need all the help i can get.
Glad to help. Go easy on your brain and the computer!
Ya, about to walk away from the computer as I am done ordering the prints.
Less screen time is good for me.
Ears tuned in and eyes tuned out!
Sounds like a good plan!
