Burst Mode 03:17
Burst Mode (R. Kozain/J. VanMatre) Yeah it's a big bright world out there, a big bright world. LED sunshine rays contact Darkened alleyways on scroll based floor wax Masqueraders target fourth grade combats. Suicidal teens on un-preemptive death chats. Sepia tones cover blemishes, known criminals in your zone Burst mode, autofocus. sepia tones fabricate the unknown (criminal in your zone) Digital world, transmittable minds, We’re technological, we're technological kinds. Permissible minds, commit to define We're technological, we're technological kinds. Vintage filter, point, shoot, preset (Click) Memory in place, all formats (Click) PNG on HD porn stash (Flash) Closed and shut down - void, no contact Yeah it's a big bright world out there, a big bright world. Digital world, transmittable minds We're technological, we're technological kinds. Permissible minds, commit to define We're technological, we're technological kinds.

Heaven 06:20
Heaven (R. Kozain/D. Srp) Sometimes I still sit and wait for your love letters Dried out ink, cursor blink, every word gets better Every word gets better, dried out ink cursor blink, Everywhere gets better. Read and re-read, read and re-read, analyze it, analyze it Read and re-read, read and re-read, compute, reboot, realize it. This is what I see in Heaven All I want and all I need is here in Heaven All I see is what I see, right here in Heaven Right here in Heaven Sometimes I still sit and reminisce on love letter LIY, ILU, M M M M, XOXOXOX And I still want you you’re the best And I still need you nothing less. LIY, ILU, M M M M, XOXOXOX Read and re-read, read and re-read Compute, reboot, realize it. This is what I see in Heaven All I want and all I need is here in Heaven All I see is what I see, right here in Heaven Right here in Heaven All that I dream is a waste of time but I’m dreaming of you tonight

Contagion 04:30
Contagion (R. Kozain) Broken compass guide me to the city lights. We’re unnamed here, but we’re human. Spoken visions, taking over my head. It’s insane here, but it’s opening the sky. It’s up to all you chalk outside of television. It’s a sure shell shock and it’s a contagion. I know..and I know… That it’s an indication I know...and I know… Nothing about the expectations. It’s up to all you chalk a momentary invasion. It’s a sure shell shock and it’s a contagion. I know..and I know… That it’s an indication I know...and I know… Something ‘bout the explanation. Destitute skyscrapers in the air. Isolated, hesitant for the fall. Will you catch my prayers as they call out? For a resolution, consuming all. What if we can’t stop this? Overcome.... What if we can’t stop this? So becoming... It’s up to all you chalk a momentary invasion. It’s a sure shell shock and it’s a contagion. I know..and I know… That it’s an indication I know...and I know… Something ‘bout the explanation. What if we can’t stop this? What if it’s too late? What if we got the antibody, God is it too late? What if we can’t stop this? What if it’s too late? What if we got the antidote, My God is it too late? What if we can’t stop this? It’s up to all you chalk outside of television. It’s a sure shell shock and it’s a contagion. I know..and I know… That it’s an indication I know...and I know,… Nothing about the expectations. It’s up to all you chalk a momentary invasion. It’s a sure shell shock and it’s a contagion. I know..and I know… That it’s an indication I know...and I know… Something ‘bout the explanation. And I know…and I know….

about

Electronic Pop artist 2020k releases a deluxe edition of Burst Mode exclusively on Bandcamp on December 27th, 2019. Written, produced, performed, and engineered by 2020k’s sole member RJ Kozain, the release comes on the self-started 2020k LLC imprint. The standard edition of Burst Mode is still available physically on CD and across all streaming platforms.

The record explores how technology has shaped and separated lines of communication. It offers a layered commentary on the evolving nature of relationships. “Heaven” delivers a manic onslaught of unrequited text messages, while its lead single and title track “Burst Mode” intensely zooms in on the plethora of issues the internet has been called out for – from bullying, to over-beautifying selfies, and more.

Burst Mode is mastered by Christopher Leary (Ochre) and includes tracks co-produced by Sparkwood Records recording artist Scyye and underground Electronic musician Kinesthetiac. The LP is currently available in standard digital and CD form and has been re-released as a digital deluxe edition in late December 2019, complete with two title track remixes – one by Pittsburgh, PA’s darkwave musician Doors in the Labyrinth; the other remix by Minneapolis, MN’s Wet Eyes.

A Liz B. directed music video for “Burst Mode” is currently available on YouTube and Vimeo.

2020k is the stage name of RJ Kozain. He is available for press, bookings, interviews, and all professional inquiries via 2020kmgmt@gmail.com.
