I thought I'd take the car out for a spin
I knew the racket I'd raise would be an unholy din
Fill the intersection with clouds of smoke
Anything to prove to the neighborhood
that my machine's no joke

It's not only how I get around
It's how you know there's no getting around me
I'm always around, you can't confound me,
you can't astound me, I'm on the ground
and when I'm around, you've gotta stand up

I fill the intersctions with my mating cry and call
Better watch out pedestrians, I'll mow you down one and all
Leaving tire tracks, circular crop markings
when it comes to the blacktop tarmac, it's you I'm stalking

I like my tight ones
I'm turning tight ones

Tight Ones (#FAWM 2022 No. 30)

For the first track of Jamuary, I was going to put up a fast-paced banger, but a sinus headache led me in this direction instead. Follow me on Mastodon for all my Jamuary jams and patch notes:

Jamuary20240101 - Covid Rebound Sinus Headache

I've seen people posting about #Jamuary — I think the idea is to do a live jam every day of the month. That's not going to happen because I've never quite figured out how to 'jam' but I like the idea of doing a track a day in one sitting and uploading whatever the result is. That's also very unlikely to happen, but I made this tonight sat on the sofa while my wife watched Phil and Kirsty.

If I get a few of these done over the course of the month I might finish them off and release them.

Jamuary20240104 - Dark Techno Sketch

Day 5 of #Jamuary2024 and I've done this (deep?) house thing. It would need some more variation and polish but it has some promise I think.

Jamuary 18th - Time Signature: 18/16

I don't know why I decided to make my life so hard by writing and singing a track in 18/16 for Jamuary. This took me quite a lot of time. The number 18 made me think of coming of age, hence the lyrics.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
I'm turning 18 Today
Your life is gonna change, they say
Big birthday party, boy
But then you can forget about joy
You're gonna be a man,
Get a job, get a wife and then
You'll be a dad someday
"But Mom, I just wanna play"

[Chorus]
Now I'm a man, I pay the bills and I've got a job,
But I still wanna play, still wanna play

[Verse 2]
Time to pick a university
The one with the easiest classes
Time to pick a job
Making videogames will be fun
But this is adult life
You can't escape your daily duty
A kid for life
At Thirty, Eight or Eighteen

18/16 At Thirty, Eight Or Eighteen
