Yeahhh unfortunately this is just one of those weeks where I don't have time to compose. So slapped this together after creating some new MPE presets on my Push 3. It does have some cool jingly resonant sounds I'd be interested in doing more with, but I just don't have the time to do so this week! Onward we march into week 39.

Week 38/Song 13

I find I still start and stop songs. Maybe it is being scared they will be in the world or someone might ask me what it means (when it may mean nothing or everything at the same time). The piano on this one came to me while fiddling around on the upright but I wasn't sure where to go with the lyrics. Should they be happy and optimistic or more doomsday style. I finally sat down a few days later to focus on trying to let lyrics and vocals flow out. The first set of lines flowed and were raw (and I learned not to delete stuff too soon...labels...labels are important). The end result as the room got too dark to see was this song with piano, vocals, backing vocals, and hollow pad synth. And when I saw the length, it explained how it got dark so fast.

Lyrics:

I’ve been searching.

Looking for something that I lost.

Can’t quite put my finger on it,

but I feel this hole inside.

I keep looking.

I keep searching.

I stare into the darkness and I hope that it subsides,

but I know that it will take some time before I feel alright.

(instrumental)

My head is foggy.

I’m seeing dots that aren’t there.

Try to connect them to see the picture that’s unclear.

Inside my mind there’s no focus, no zoom,

no panoramic view to see the whole room.

So I stare.

I just stare.

I stare into the darkness.

I stare into the wall.

I stare at the person that I was before this all.

But I’ll be okay. (I’ll be okay)

(instrumental)

The blank pages before me in this haunted hollow shell.

Once imagination filled these halls with joy,

but it's not there anymore.

I’m a ghost of what I was, just an empty heart.

So I stare. (I stare)

I keep looking.

I keep searching.

I stare into the darkness, and

I hope that it subsides

But I know that it will take some time before I feel alright.

But I’ll be alright (I’ll be alright)

So I stare.

I keep looking.

I keep searching.

I stare into the dark.

I hope that it will subside,

But I know that it will take some time before I feel alright.

I’ll be alright

But I’ll be alright.

dumb trance-sounding synth track.  it really needs some more melodic variation.

Still in a slump. At least this time I was able to sorta kinda drag myself out of it but not without leaving two beats behind this week. The result is a trap/drill mess that goes kinda hard but is rather simple.

I've recorded some vocals (beyond the ad libs included in this version), if you're interested, you can find that version on soundcloud.

I have spent far too long off this platform. Been busy with recording, touring and playing shows but had time to write this, kind of had this on the back burner and it still is, need to mix it but wanted to share it with you all. Hope to release this on streaming platforms soon.

This weeks weekly beats is a 909 day entry.

The track is all Roland Cloud

A 909, 4 Junos and a Jupiter.

It's a follow up to my 808 day entry Super Scaler.

They say the 909 is a lot less mix ready than the 808 and they aren't kidding. I had to do so much processing and it still doesn't sound as punchy as the 808 does out of the box.

The Junos on the other hand are pretty much all sweet spot and the Roland Cloud ACB Junos sound amazing.

Super Scalar was named after a Sega Arcade board

The track is called Hikaru (Japanese for "Shine") which is the next generation arcade board to represent the linage of the 808 to the 909 and the visuals are the same scene but upgraded from 16 bit sprites to low poly 3D.

Musicwise I've gone with some unsettling chromatic mediant changes.

It’s been awhile since I’ve uploaded a track. I’ve been making music but haven’t been able to share it yet. I’ve been working on a goatrance project with a friend of mine all spring and summer. We’ve completed a full album and working on its release.

Anyhow, I was booked to play a hour and a half set so I needed a long techno track to help fill the set. This is what came out and it performed pretty well.

This track was made with the M8 and a TD-3
