No. VI Playlist

D.D. No. VI/Dover

No. VI of the Last Cafe and Diner… he is, well, he’s Dover. Dover D. Demon, to be precise. I asked him what the “D.” stood for and he quite confidently told me, “Da,” of course. He is a strange greater cosmic entity if ever there was one, so I tried to capture a bit of his unique flavor in his playlist. His genres are a mix of abstract and experimental hip hop, some dark cabaret, and folk pop mostly. While his songs are fairly upbeat and bouncy, I tried to pick songs that really highlighted his more introspective undertones. Heavy is the bulbous orange head that wears the crown of cosmic powers.

Playlist

1.		I get lost in the deep space stars And call for directions on prepaid cards I don't got no pride when it comes to astronomy If I know where I am then I feel like they're onto me
2.		Can you smell it on my breath? Is it the whispering of death? Or the slumbering aroma of the cousin of a coma? Lie upon the sofa, relax and let your lids rest Look into the nothing to see traces of the infinite
3.		Circles, cycles, why do you torture me? Eyelids mindful, carry the weight for me Circles, cycles, why do you torture me? Dreamcatcher, I’m falling but not asleep
4.		Please intercede if you see people stopping me Asking "how do I make this sound?", or givin' me demo CDs Trying to get me to smoke weed and watch their TVs Can we have all interactions through email, please?!
5.		Been the lastest man picked for the kickball Incoordinate: to hit, I miss a brick wall That won't help an unpopular pick Take a swig, now I'm captaining sh8t And I'm putting legitimate players on duty To gather them beauties what thought I had cooties
6.		I'm not trying to hate I don't think Taco Bell's a good first date, okay? Leave your manga at home Unless you wanna live your whole life alone Just make a group chat instead All your friends that you added to it wish you were dead
7.		Harness your hopes on just one person Because you know a harness was only made for one Don't telegraph your passes, you'll end up with molasses Cauterized in syrup and syrup and molasses
8.		I'm just here to hold your hand when you die And to show you around imaginary places
9.		You see the heat death of the universe Time is unwinding The baby is kicking If you listen close you can hear Something ticking inside of them Thine is the kingdom of wire and bone Your wardenless prison Your forever home You can live on the edges Look through the gaps in the fences But that's about all
10.		Call it what you will I guess what we’re trying to say is We’re glad to be here Thank you for having us And maybe we’ll see you when it’s over
