In 2011 Mr.Woodnote & Lil Rhys created ‘Modus Operandi’, their first album as a duo. Mr.Woodnote’s beats, horns and compositions never fail to satisfy and the genre smashing rhythms are complimented by Lil Rhys’ tight lyrical flow and imaginative content. The album also features Eva Lazarus on tracks such as ‘Diamonds in the Dirt’ and ‘Spacedust’; her serene and striking vocals have elevated the sound to the a whole new level.

lyrics
Caught in a world wide web by a spider, my provider always tying me tighter,
I see the teeth of this mega-byter as it chomps on my mind making everything cyber,
Sat in a puddle of piss and saliva, shit stained pants, I'm trapped like a lifer,
Spider's my jailer, my emperor, my kaiser, curtains closed making this world brighter,
Laughing out loud so I blend, even though I didn't make a sound I pretend,
Need to communicate so I press send and send another smiley face to my best friends,
I'm waiting for my life to pend, I don't know when it started but I want it to end,
This is the realm of myths and legends, where my sixth sense can stretch and extend,
Swimming through a sea of boobs, my crude intellect thinks it's all so rude,
Which one of you dudes called me a nube, Might put my size 11 shoe deep in your tube,
Can't quite define my mood, Use a confused face and it might be excused,
Stuck in one man feud, glued, there's nobody around to report the abuse,
Am I here for relationships, friends or dates, I tell her how I feel, am I gonna get traced?
Better use a pseudonym just in case, through the six degrees she might know my mates,
I've got to get out of this place, I can't take the pace of my face and space,
Everything seems to ache, and someone's sent an ice-cream that I can't taste.
W W W Dot!
W W W What?!
W W W Dot!
Why won't all the damn Ws stop?!
The spider knows what I need, but it makes me slow, controlling my speed,
Stuck in the web it weaves, squeezed, I don't where to turn or what to believe,
Then it makes my whole world freeze, it never thaws out though I beg and plead,
Sometimes I kick and scream but it's mean and it grins with glee on my god damn screen,
No room to manoeuvre, I'm a looser of a user, doing nasty things with the hoover,
Wanna be a shaker and a mover but i've turned into stone as I stare at medusa,
I'm a virtual consumer, a chooser, feeding of the chips of my trusty computer,
Super, lost in the maze of my router, spider still all over my back like loofah,
I can see the whole world here from my window, nobody can see me, no need to tip-toe,
Light's keep flashing in my digital disco, my fingers dance, there's a pain in my wrist though,
Is any of this real or am I going schitzo? Fuck it! I don't even need brains or machismo,
All I need's a double click, click, quit, close and I assume power of this little gizmo,
That's it, over, cut, severed, finally I can say goodbye forever,
Bye bye my technological terror, I'm gonna miss all our precious time together,
Then the spider sends me one last letter, promising more, it will all be better,
Delirious, thought I'd be more clever, never learn from experience and critical error.
W W W Dot!
W W W What?!
W W W Dot!
Why won't all the damn Ws stop?!
