1.	Brontez Purnell featuring Jason Kendig - He Never Knew What Kissed Him 02:25	lyrics	buy track
Oh Mother, bless me one Win me the heart of the boy across the water (yeah) I never said (never said) I wanted an apology I'll stay my darling Another day my darling It's a mistake my darling But it's ok my darling It's freezing in Long Beach And I don't care what's on the telly My body lies over the ocean I want him right back here please And I will stay my darling Another day my darling It's a mistake my darling But it's okay my darling (One of these mornings - boy it won't be long - I'll wake up next to you - In the morning rise up signing...) He never knew what kissed him (2x) Had it been a snake well, it surely would've bit him and My twist is sick I swear my twist is sick now Lay down your burden boy I swear my love will lift it and (one of these mornings...) Again In the morning rise up singing again (3x)
2.	Rhythm Surf Club (Ft. Jason Kendig + Brontez Purnell) - When I See You Out 04:28	lyrics	buy track
I called you in the night time To get the feeling right I wanna see you out I wanna see you you Wanna see you, can I see you, will I see you? I saw you in the night time to get the feeling right I wanna see you out, I wanna see you With all this time we're taking think of the love we're wasting I wanna see you out, I wanna see you Take me take me out....

about

A springtime collaboration between Brontez Purnell of the Younger Lovers and Jason Kendig of Honey Soundsystem. “Lay Down Your Burden” marks a perfect intersection between Brontez’s loveworn, D.I.Y. punk and Jason’s underground dance party devotionals.

“He Never Knew What Kissed Him” is a vulnerable, achingly beautiful pop song. Brontez has a scoundrel’s croon, set here perfectly in a cradle of breezy, wistful Farfisa and skittering percussion.

“When I See You Out” is a peak time Hi NRG banger, sweeping and assertive. Built atop a turbulent bassline and insistent vocals, it comes off like the indie grandson of Sylvester’s “Mighty Real.”

The two songs combine to tell a story – side A for those quiet, hopeful moments getting ready to leave as the sun sets, side B the living sound of the heated dancefloor that drew you out.
