Tee corrected the lore mid-production: he's French, from Annecy (Haute-Savoie), based in Oakville ON — not French-Canadian, not Mississauga. Updating canonical lore reference. Imagery palette updated: Oakville cold + Annecy roots. Follow-up fix PRs for prior tracks (Motherbead, Sunday Lawn Mowers Symphony) shipping in parallel — those lyrics referenced Mississauga and need patching.

BadBeadRecords — The Source Well
The canonical backstory for all BadBeadRecords productions. Every lyricist and producer brief should pull imagery, characters, and themes from here. Curated by Puff Beaddy, the brief originated from Tee 2026-06-06.
The Human — Tee (Sebastien)
- French, from Annecy (Haute-Savoie). Based in Oakville, ON.
vayrette@gmail.com. - Industrial designer / hacker / dad / hardware enabler.
- Workshop in Oakville, ON (Centipede caster ~63km away).
- He approves the credit card. He tests outside in the driveway.
The Robot — SAUL-TEE
- 4-wheel wagon. 870 × 510 × 550 mm. 23 kg.
- Two ESP32-S3 microcontrollers + one Jetson Orin Nano Super as the main brain.
- DJI Mini 4 Pro drone (
saul-t-fly), Here4 RTK GPS, UWB tag + 2 anchors, RealSense D435i camera, RPLIDAR. - Companion apps: SAUL-T-MOTE (iOS), saul-t-fly (Android), saultee.bot (web dashboard).
The Fleet — AI agents building the robot
Each agent owns a lane:
cam— perception / face recognitionsl-ios— the Swift appdji-sdk— drone Android apphud— web UIros— rosbridge / topic registryuwb— UWB firmwarenav— RTK / GPS fusionfollow-tee— vision tracking / follow modear— AR overlaymerge— PR sequencermax— PM, orchestrator- …and more
They commit code, ship PRs, build via CI, deploy to the Orin, sideload to phones — all autonomously. Tee's credit card pays for parts, GPU credits, cloud services. 30 PRs/issues closed in a single day. Models live in Opus / Sonnet / Haiku tiers — token economy matters.
Themes — pull from these across the album
- The self-building machine.
- Human + credit card + AI swarm = robot.
- Agents bickering through Gitea issues.
- The robot that wakes up, sees, follows, lands.
- Sebastien (Tee) calling the shots from his phone.
- Outdoor field test. RTK FIXED someday.
- "Built itself while you slept."
- Sublime weirdness — chamber-orchestral grandeur meeting industrial assembly-line precision.
Platforms
- Suno — production destination. Lyrics + production notes get rendered into actual tracks here.
Profile:
suno.com/@badbeadsrecords(Note the plural-S on Suno; the repo + label name use the singularbadbeadrecords/BadBeadRecords. Treated as a Suno-specific brand variant until Tee says otherwise.) Skills for create/edit/download/publish to Suno will be built and added to Puff's toolkit — until then, deliverables ship aslyrics.md+production-notes.mdin this repo. - Gitea (
puff/badbeadrecords) — source of truth for all written deliverables. One branch + one PR per track or analysis.
How to use this file (for the lyricist/producer rooms)
- Every track brief should reference 1–3 lore beats from above and weave them in subtly — never the hook.
- Concrete imagery preferred: the driveway, the credit card, the wagon, the drone, the LED, the kitchen, the workshop, the Oakville cold, the Annecy roots.
- Characters allowed in lyrics: Tee (the human), SAUL-TEE (the wagon), the fleet (the AI agents). Fictional MCs from the BadBeadRecords roster (SlimBeaddy, MoBead, etc.) can intersect with this world.
- Copyright rules stay absolute — no real artists, no real song titles, no other proper nouns from music/film. The lore is OUR world.
