Exploding Potential

So, I know it has been over a month. I have still been working on tracks. My newest one is Exploding Potential. Don't really know where it came from, and am not truly happy with it. But i thought I would put it out there for you guys to enjoy.

My new main project has been looking for a bike. I know I might be late to the party, but I guess it is just time to enjoy my commute a little more. I have been struggling to find one, but I think if I keep working hard at it, I'll find what I'm looking for. So if you know anyone who is selling (or giving away) a 56-58cm single speed in the bay area, let me know. I hope all has been well with you. This might have been an excuse to show the world how useful the present perfect is, or maybe none of you noticed. Anyway best regards and enjoy the song.

Opulence

For those of you fond of the commercial, I have taken a sound byte and mixed it into a song. Opulence, I has it, was first known to me on Thursday. After I finished this song I kind of noticed something weird about it. It seems to me to be a song, but backwards. I don't know maybe that's just my brian needing not to listen to it for the three hundredth time. Well, let me know what you think. And hopefully you can appreciate tiny giraffes as much as I do.

I forgot

to mention that I remixed a song I did previously. I didn't like how the vocals fit before so I made a new one. I liked the vocals, at least the lyrics. so this is round number two on "Only Time Will Tell. Enjoy!

Spaceships and frustration

For a while now there has been something wrong. I could not put my finger on it. My life as a whole looked pretty damn good, at least from the outside. I have a stable job, two in fact. I have a girl who smiles at me and, as I recently found out, is just as silly as I am. My family is good and my friends as well. Yet there was something bringing me down. I felt as though Atlas was weakening and I too could feel his burden. It felt as if all my razors were being dulled and the sky wasn't as bright. I let little things, money, get to me. Some may have blamed the weather, but I have never been that person. I felt as though I couldn't make a fist.

Last night was the peak. I was working hard, too hard maybe. I say that because I am usually not that motivated to work on a Sunday. I sat down to make a song and it just wasn't working. I put that idea away and moved on to transporting myself to a new day. I went to sleep. When I awoke the feeling was still there. I carried it all through the day and it wasn't until I got home, ate, and blinked hard. I started making a song. I went back and forth on the style. After about two hours Stuttering Spaceships was born, and the smile came back on my face. My heartbeat rose and so did my spirit. So here is the solution. When I feel beat down, trodden upon, I need to sit down and create. Something needs to come from my fingertips, fists are not productive in this vain. So, enjoy what keeps me sane, what keeps my eyes open. Enjoy what I want to give.

My seventh

So, this is my seventh song. I don't know where it came from but here it is. Just to note, I am not in any way depressed, or even sad. My life, at this moment, is fantastic. I just felt that I kind of had a story to tell. I tried more singing. Maybe one day I will take lessons. As always I hope you all like it. Also, I am thinking about naming my "band" The Bedroom Band, since that is where I make all this ear jam and jelly.

I wonder

So with it being Valentine's Day soon, I tried my hand at a love song. No, it isn't some gushy experiment with cliched lyrics. It's more of What I like to listen to. Some of the lyrics don't even rhyme. But I also tried singing. I have put myself on songs before but this time I put my voice, as an instrument, if thats a correct usage, into the song. Don't worry auto tune helped and no I don't sound like Kanye or T-Pain. I hope you enjoy.

Tiny bugs and sunshine

So, I am at it again. I was inspired this time by a tiny green bug that looks like a lady bug, and a suggestion. I tried some different things and I think it turned out smashingly. I mention sunshine because without it being out on Saturday, this never would have happened. Strange how something so apparent could be so refreshing. This little green bug, whom we have named Marcus, was just walking around a park and we happened upon him by another chance. We sat down at a seemingly random spot on the grass, lied down and saw something I had never seen before. Cheers Marcus!
