about

Ruby Singh is a descendant of the land of five rivers and the Moon itself, with Rajput lineage from the edge of the Thar desert. The Future Ancestors come together to conjure sonic remedies to heal, guide and inspire the spirits of our kin, both known and unknown, seen and unseen. From celestial to terrestrial, spanning ancient realms into what's to come, the Future Ancestors kick up stardust from the shelves of our spirits to bring joy into these trying times.

A primal scream can be heard to begin the first single. Dog Bone, and a fierce demand for freedom and liberation is laid out over an infectious groove from the perspective of a pack of street dogs. With it’s bouncy and mischievous nature, the song also acts as a warning for anyone that would try to inhibit those freedoms. The Flavourcel Collective are behind the stunning animated music video. With a psychedelic backdrop we follow 3 dogs as they lay chase to their oppressors unraveling and ripping apart the leash that they tried to put on them. Playful and kinetic, the video is a fevered dream into the often surreal journey towards emancipation.

lyrics

Release this hold on me
Lured me in with your sweet honey
Now you got me on a tighter leash
Don’t you know that I really got to be free
Believe in what you see
Don’t you know you can’t jack me
Run me over with your suv
You can try but I run this street

feel my teeth sink deep in your tire
grippin you my rhthym gonna take you higher
didn’t mama warn you about live wires
You can’t catch me or you’ll catch fire
Stop, drop, roll-- loosen your soul
and let it go, let it blow ov-er the whole
over the cold and let it flow
it grow, wo go, OH NOOO
don’t you know you cant catch us homes

CHORUS
Give some other little doggy a bone
Don’t you hold me in a tight little rope
bound to break free before you already known
It’s how it go baby don’t you know


You better catch my bark cuz if you catch my bite
I swallow up the sun make you think that it is night
These K9’s clamp tight when I sense the fight
On a mic I’m a mighty carnivore aight
Got my sights set on you gonna make you move
dipin poppin stompin in a nasty groove
whipin up a frenzy in a sweaty room
prowlin growlin howlin at midnight moon

CHORUS

Baby don’t you know (in break down)

watch how you approach my dear
I can tell when you come near
Listen close lend me your ear
I’m the type that can smell your fear
Don’t go far cuz I got your scent
To getchya movin now I’m hell bent
Occupying but you haven’t spent
Well I’m comin to collect your rent

So loosen up with the rhythm
Stop your complainin
I’m just expainin how you gotta roll
If you want to join for a stroll
The patrol is headed your way
These are dog days
God praise, do it in your own ways,
Set a blaze, mental craze
Feelin up the sound waves
I’m a amazed that your bodies movin
Nothing doin just pursuin
Now dance like you wanna ruin the leash
Release the beast and join the pack on the streets

CHORUS
Baby don't you know
