    This indie electro-pop album contains ten singular pop songs which blur boundaries between grounded and surrealistic realms. An exciting symbiosis, in which Janssen explores her own striking voice in a myriad of ways. Classical melodies, abstract poetry and free improvisation form a unique connective tissue together. STASJ’s music researches, observes and expands the human spirit.

    The album's art work, photography and graphic design is created by Willem Stapel.

lyrics

COMMUTER

I have some traces left
of violence in my head
when I when I go home

Walking walking following
arrows through gates and
everybody stares at you
they exchange, communicate
everybody stares at you

I have these restless legs
Pushing me to the left
I’ll never, never get home

Moving, moving, following
shadows and line lights
everybody passes by
you don’t see any faces
everybody passes by

It is important
to have this job
Have this home
it is important to know that
you’re being loved

How do you recognize her
How do you recognize her
How do you recognize her
How do you hypnotize her?

You just focus on her heartbeat
Focus on the heartbeat
Focus on the heartbeat

I have some traces left
of violence in my head
then I then I call you

STÄSJ is a flowing river in this landscape, at times meandering, at times cascading, hypnotizing us with refined voice techniques and intricate compositions. The new album is a contemporary reflection on the human condition: the endless quest for growth and need for change that define our being. ... more
