MONEY MACHINE

The soundtrack to life, where fragility is covered by brands and fatigue is covered by the wheeze of Auto-Tune, glitters, thunders and smells of expensive gasoline. A world in which money sounds louder than feelings, and every new verse is another check for immortality. Everything is resolved with a click, as if “simsalabim”: two bills to the cash register, three to the wind, and again the smoke wraps reality in gold foil.

Beneath the bass is an irony about how easy it is to lose yourself when everything around you shines equally brightly. Plastic success, saturated with dopamine and the smell of Sephora, does not promise peace, but generously gives the illusion of power. While the money machine is spinning, life seems to be an eternal deal with the echo.
