Welcome back to Artbeat Radio!   

This week, we celebrate Autumn with a seasonal poem, an Autumn themed interview, a re-visit of the song, “Dancing on Thanksgiving” from our Qurarntunes series, and we even share what we’re thankful for! 

“Dancing on Thanksgiving” written by EPI and San Diego in October 2020 

This is a catchy, upbeat pop song about one of EPI’s favorite holidays, Thanksgiving! The lyrics depict EPI musicians’ favorite foods like “pumpkin pie and turkey” and even what they are thankful for this year. This fall holiday jam will be sure to get you up singing and dancin’ this Thanksgiving! 

Pumpkin pie and turkey  

I’m thankful for my family  

We’re going out shopping  

And we’re happy on Thanksgiving  

Leaves are changing colors 

Brown, green, red, and yellow  

No school, work, or zooming 

Cause we're dancing on Thanksgiving  

We're gonna eat  

Relax 

Snack  

Cause we’re dancing on Thanksgiving 

Thank you to Stephanie Monis, Max Lecanu-Fayet, Sam Beyer, Liam Porter, Claire Feth, Santiago Milanino, Reid Moriarty, Renee Morneau, and Sarah Shaw, Jillian Anderson, Reid Moriarty, Daniel Lee, and Juan Marcos Olivares for the composition and performance of Dancing on Thanksgiving

This episode consists of 2 songs made by service users using the digital audio workstation Soundtrap.  The first song’s theme is “happy”, and the second song’s theme is “excited”.  Service users first picked the theme of the songs and then picked different available loops they decided related to the theme.  Drum, bass, synth, and melodic loops were chosen to create the entire soundscape.  Next, a melodic line was created using Chrome Music Lab’s Melody Maker application.  The lyrics were then explored by discussing what made service users both “happy” and “excited”.  Finally, lyrics were recorded by the service users and layered on top of the created soundscape.  The final product represents the service users’ experiences of these two emotions. Thank you to Nancy Terrey, Brian Corder, Doug Calhoun, Maria Ramirez, Aaron Francis, and Jamie Haverman
