It's loose and limber,

Lanky and loopy.

It's mostly just some beats,

Turned into a song.

I hope you like it,

Could care less if you don't.

At least you still listened,

Don't taze me, bro.

Tried to make this one in a major key. Or at least something different. It's hard to make music with the intent of being joyful rather than the usual feeling of "make it as intense as I can." A lot of my lyrics are dark. Not sure why, maybe just because they sound cool or maybe because there's some kind of internal turmoil. I dunno, it's just music. But it can also be whatever you and I need it to be.

I'm actually pretty proud of this one. Maybe I should do more stuff like this.

I wanted to feature the Akai Rhythm Wolf a bit more. It's a challenge to work with in the mixing and mastering stage. I'm not very good at things like taming rogue frequencies and getting clarity out of the noise without clipping so... yeah, here we are. I'd like to turn this into a series, so this is "No. 1" and the title is both in acknowledgement of the greatness of the 303 as well as the name of a burrito (the "Wolf & Goat") from a local restaurant. I liked how the hi-hats turned outs. The kick and "snare" are pretty rough though.

Description to be updated later. Had to do this in one take today, and something glitched in the recorder, so there's a skip in the intro. I hope you enjoy it warts and all though!

Inspired by a misheard Alex G lyric, and an incredible lyric from an Asha Jeffries song ("Your mouth on my mouth: devotion").

Guitar in CGDGDD tuning.

I leave my skin outside your house

place your mouth upon mouth

I will give my wings to you

make my blind to the truth

I would bleed into you

if you asked me to

I would bleed into you

if you asked me to

no word more sacred than your name

I will shoulder all your blame

stare directly at the sun

to see how bright you have become

I would bleed into you

if you asked me to

I would bleed into you

if you asked me to

Not really speedtrash exactly, but definitely speedtrash-adjacent. The bones of this have been kicking around on my M8 for ages. So I fleshed it out some instead of cooking up something new this (busy) week.

The vocal-ish sounds are from recordings of WebSDR. And the distorted drums are a mangled sample of an Omnichord's "country" rhythm preset. Everything else is M8 synths.

Oops, forgot to submit last week. Kept thinking I'd sit down and make final tweaks one more time but then the weekend got away from me! We keep soldiering forward, back to the garage style beats this week.

I COMPLETELY ran out of time this week, since my sister is getting married (YAY!)

So here's a sketch, at best

› lyrics‹ lyrics

Oh I

feel like a tardigrade

so small

can't even be displayed

I know

I have worth beyond

what I can do

I always come back

and make a breakthrough

Strong and mighty

like a tardigrade (grade)

I always come back

even when I

stray

I'm very much not happy with this week's submission (especially after how proud I am of last week's) but.. take the good with the bad!

Another very straightforward track for this weeks weekly beats.

Musically very simple just a 2 chord vamp from F#m7 - DM9

The idea was a late 80's / early 90's retro house track and I chose sounds to be era appropriate.

Made with Bitwig.

Drums are the excellent V8 built in 808 drum machine from Bitwig

The pad is V Collection Casio CZ through Arturia tape sim with a lot of wonk

Lead is a Roland D-50

Bass is a Lately Bass from Hive tweaked to be a bit more squishy and fuzzy

303 is Phoscyon

Vocals are Synthesizer V again although Saros 2 this time which I've been very impressed with for a more soulful type of sound.

Lyrics

We are embers in the smoke

Shine for moments then we're gone

We are bubbles in the spray

Reflecting rainbows as we fade
