Fake Plastic Heads & Johann Calderón - The Silhouettes of Francis Dawn
The Silhouettes of Francis Dawn is a 52min experimental ambient album.
It tells the story of Francis Dawn, who decided from one moment to another to leave his work in the City of London, leave everything behind and escape to the countryside south of London. Reality and fantasy merge. It is his personal journey through present and past, his fears and craving for a long lost love of his. In the end, his journey leads him to his own death.

“In Aeternum“ (Forever; eternally) is a 38 minutes experimental ambient album. The album is inspired by “The Tower of Silence”.
Towers of Silence (from Avestan "Daz," noun-"Dakhma," meaning "to burn from the Sun"), are circular raised structures traditionally used by followers of the Zoroastrian religion in their rituals surrounding death. Historically, when a member of the Zoroastrian faith died, his or her corpse was placed on an elevated mound structure to be exposed to the natural elements and to carrion-eating birds. This process was deemed to maintain the purity of the earth and the atmosphere during the process of bodily decomposition.

LYRICS:
Wide Awake
Slipping – through throats and mine
I hold on to my father’s hand
keen on choking and grinning with
this razor – buried in quicksand
wide awake
keep pretending
all good
all good
wide awake
keep pretending
all good
all good
you try hard to defy what’s mine
what’s mine and always will be
get me, please get me out of this place
cruising the deep blue sea
Lost in this well-known sin
pulling you out
pushing me back in
(where do I begin?)
I came here for a reason
slicing the logic; cut!
feeding! – it’s pig-people-season
(keeping the door shut!)
this battle is all over
I let them pass just through
invisible – now that I’m older
(eye – eat – eye! Just like you.)
wide awake
keep pretending
all good
all good

LYRICS:
Boot Error
Booting like a motherf*cker
Now he’s away and all forgotten
Times were better back then
When we were close friends
Losing it all
Please excuse me as I fall
Deep down, I caught a fire
The memories of an empire –
(lost)
I can hear your call
chasing back to myself
Top to bottom - I’m in my car
Up and driving real far
Losing it all
Please excuse me as I fall
Deep down, I caught a fire
The memories of an empire
(Further than ever
you never said “never”)
Flying over my head
Stepping up to the dead
Tearing apart lost souls
Remembering all damned crows

"Nonstop - Let Go"
https://www.fakeplasticheads.com
Official audio.
Lyrics:
Nonstop – Let go
Sacred recollections
Focus out of space
tell me what it’s worth
creature sent to Earth
I can see you
I can feel you
I won’t break you
Elevate you
Keep on growing
Be within the flow
I can’t always be around
anywhere, let go

The brand new #fakeplasticheads music video: Different Places
More info: https://www.fakeplasticheads.com
Lyrics:
Different Places
There seems to be another place
I can’t recall – I must erase
getting back and growing inside
cut out of my mind – out of your minds
Dark matter –
solid – let it in
crawling onto naked skin
where have you been?
where have you been?
There seems to be this different place
I will remember – I can’t erase
head up – head down
eternity breathing, lifts you off the ground
Dark matter –
solid – let it in
crawling onto naked skin
where have you been?
where have you been?

This is my alias Fake Plastic Heads and the brand new single "M. (Close to Midnight Mix)" - Release date: October 8th 2021
Based on my poem "M."
Thank you GEMA and the Neustart Kultur program!
Lyrics:
m.
Over. Taking.
Sleep. Yes. Drink.
My Mind.
Soft bullets creep.
Words pouring out.
Sink - deep.
All left. Breathe
To the core.
And way beyond the pale.
To my left
A frozen frame.
Nothing special.
Just an image.
Never the same.
Keep coming back,
Like flashlights . . . in the mirrors.
Heavy drops smash the surface.
Do you deserve this?
I don’t think enough.
Not hard enough.
Not fast enough.
Over. Rated.
Far too much.
I’m tired of pretending I’m alive.
Dark and hollow
On the inside.
Feed me -
Just one more time.
It’s close to midnight
M.

The brand new song + music video "memorycontrolunit" by me and my alias #FakePlasticHeads - Thank you #GEMA for the support!
((( Neustart Kultur )))
More info: https://www.fakeplasticheads.com
Lyrics:
memorycontrolunit
Everything’s better now
everything‘s better than my padded world
mummified celebrity
hollow vacuum feeding on anger
suicide angels hovering in front of me
walkers on nails
aspirin-hearts
Everything’s better now
I long to talk to my reflection
besides the scars and the dirt
I seem to see right through
the bottomless memory
washes ashore
the broken image of you
and the tears I’ve wasted on you
leave a trail on my wounded belly
I’ve seen all the faces of frustration
tempting the depressive soul
leaving cracks in the plastic circuitry
heavenly maneuvering this crucified machinery
into the depths of space and time
I’m glad they swallowed mine.

"An Angel (No Moon Remix)" - 2021 - Fake Plastic Heads
#fakeplasticheads - my brand new dark / #IndustrialSong
The lyrics were inspired by one of Margaret Atwood's stories in "Good Bones" (worth checking it out!) - This particular one is about the suicide angel.
LYRICS:
We’re burning like skies in her eye
the deepest red
so thick and yet she cries
she’s turning their backs
the glances penetrate from behind
and stare right through the delicate flesh, yes!
we smell her sex
we taste her lust
we feel it’s wrong
but we want it
to be right
who cares these days?
who longs to question?
the fake clay hanging from her blue lips, eclipse
dripping a thousand times per second – a kiss
onto the sweet membrane
ain’t she wrapped in cellophane?
a dying star here
losing faith
inhaling sugar – nicotine
cold-hearted heroine
with bare feet walking on the moon
no light will ever reach her
I bet she’ll forget real soon
she’s out there with a vengeance
and she’ll never come back
her footprints leave a trail in the faces of the dead
her whispers protrude from underneath the bed
“come with me,” she used to beg
offering (some) silent chemical
I can’t forget the way – she crawls
I’m losing sight again
there’s nothing but to pray
for she’s my only true friend
end...
(scream)

Lyrics:
"Should I?"
Think, twice . . .
Remove the errors
mistakes bleed – nice!
Go back to the beginning
and feed the terror.
It’s no good
It’s no good
Damn malfunction! Miscalculated.
Why should you even bother?
All locked up and all sedated?
Who the fuck should?
Who could?
Would I?
I think you’re no good.
We think you’re no good . . .
at all.
It’s all about them boots and boobs and money.
So take care of yourself, honey!
It’s all about them boots and boobs and money.
So take care of yourself, honey!
Rewind to that full stop.
Think, re-think, think tank, tank top, yup?!

#DarkAmbient
Since 2005, Charles S. Kuzmanovic is recording music as „Fake Plastic Heads“.
He lives in a small town near Munich, Germany, and produces mostly electronic sounds with experimental flavors and bits of noise, glitch and IDM.
The name of the project should need no further explanation, as all of us know and have met fake people throughout our lives. This telling name is a way to address people that might have struggled way too long, relying on fake friends or relationships.
The main focus of the music lies in the translation of innermost feelings into something organic and abstract – that would last in the head of the listener. The journey of each song and album is nothing for the short-attention-span generation. Building audio-visual worlds is kind of more like a cinematic journey.
The dark and often industrial soundscapes serve as a basis for complex structures of sounds and noise.
It’s an approach, trying to reduce the impact of suffering and dealing with more abstract regions of the human psyche.
