Artist: Moby.Mk.II
I've been playing original rock music for around 7 years now, most of it with my old band 'Corduroy'. We did fairly well in a country indifferent to meaningful music(Pakistan); sold over 1000 (legal and pirated) copies of our 2004 release, 'The Morning After', received the TMA award for best english music video of 2006 for 'Leeway',signed a merchandizing deal with VOODOOTEES Pvt. Ltd In 2006 as part of Corduroy; we were the only underground band in Pakistan to have such a deal. At the end of our run, we even got signed by a local record label (Indispensable Communications), but sadly by that time,Corduroy as a band had reached its natural conclusion.

The dis-banding didn't deter me from continuing to do music on my own, in fact its allowed me to further explore my individual influences in music as opposed to operating within a band template. My latest accomplishments have been:

1. Being made Mp3Unsigned.com Artist Of The Week in May 07
1. 'Soulpilot' & 'In Transit' made tracks of the day on Garageband.com in the blues rock and groove rock genres respectively (first week of September 07).
3. In September 07, 'Soulpilot' & 'In Transit' were also nominated for the 2007 Toronto Exclusive Magazine Music Awards in the International Rock Song category.
4. 'In Transit' hit #1 on Songplanet Radio's Top 40 Songs Played By Live DJs charts for the period Nov 13-27 2007, and then hit the top spot again on Dec 5 2007.
5. 'Escape Artist' a DJ Pick of the Month (Nov 07) on Songplanet Radio.
6. Best Male Solo Artist (Pakistan) at the 2007 Music Aid International Music Awards.
7. 'Soulpilot' hit #1 on Songvault.fm Radio's Rock Indie Hit Radio charts (12/18-12/20 2007)

My preferred partners-in-crime on the guitar/bass currently are Ali Qamar & Hashim Nauman. A big shout-out to these very talented individuals.

I drove up to see the morning sun,
at least some things dont change

Would you hold me back if i spent my days?
Driving in circles around your place, as always

A momentary lapse of reason
I thought your smile would mean the world

Why'd you let tears hide when I was put away?
In a place where even letters are rephrased,
I'm amazed.

I had a need to belong, and I let it drive my whole life
There are shovers-aplenty around, but did you have to join in?

I can see for miles by standing my ground,
but what do you see when you look deep down?
They can put my mug on every front page
but I never half-baked my sentiments for you.

Its true.

I read like an open book, so my mama should’ve taught me better
High priests of the moral hood, make bonfires out of human leather

I wish I could stereo the drugs of choice in hand
At night while the city sleeps, I seek a saner past

Soulpilot you understand every form of aviation
That goes inside my head
I need to be born again, to fly off to the heavens
And seek a better plan

What did you do, to the heroes of the land?
Did you lay them off, to downsize the plant?

I don’t want to be where the cold winter night, keeps casting long shadows
Rolling the dice for a righteous divide, ignite the land and run

Ooooyea, Ooooyea
line them up against the wall

Ooooyea, Ooooyea
blindfolds made like finest chalk

The weight of the hour spurs the knights in their towers
the motif discrete, can you smell the deceased?
We all stopped searching for the human within, all we do is pretend,
That its all in transit....

Sing me a love song, without prejudice
I’m only the shoe shine, I’m not the edifice

So count the stories we'll be hiding from our children
of all the faucets we let dripping when we shelved them

I need to try, one last time
let me cry, one last shrine

Sing me a love song, without premises
I’ll be your sun shine, without a plebiscite

So count the stories we'll be hiding from our children
of all the faucets we let dripping when we shelved them

I need to try, one last time
let me cry, one last shrine

Hold on to the stereo I made, I'll be leaving
Hold on to the tourniquet I saved, I'll be leaving
Hold on to the solace that I gave, I'll be leaving...

If all you needed was an autograph, I could’ve worn masks and pretended.
Now you know what to write in my obituary, I’m the man who died pleasing

For this day of the week, who do you want me to be?
Do you want me to drum like Ringo Starr?
Should I learn how to fly, so I can bring you the sky? with a side order of fries?

If I stand in a line, will you speak to me?
I’ve been waiting sober.
Its never a crime to love those in deceit, Ill be waiting.

Don’t go searching for everything that shines, seeking closure from the pain.
Don’t go believing all those nursery rhymes, you have outgrown that cage
Repent my friend..
