A note about this release:
We didn't have the instrumental version of "Swag And A Bag" published yet, so here it is now bundled with the singing version in Single form:

Our awesome Japanese friend Tot. (soundcloud.com/tot-beat, soundcloud.com/user-288513022) was on the drums and bass - thanks again so much for working with us on this fun song, Tot.~ We had a blast!

This song's story is that one day, Rob & Masha were doing deliveries for a summer-long job in 2021 when Masha spotted an old 60s van in a junkyard and snapped a quick photo, later the two of them making the event into a full song with the help of Tot.

At the same time as Tot. was working on a drum and bass conga style beat but he had no other parts, Rob & Masha were already working on synth parts and a fun chiptunes solo, but they had no drums! So when they heard each other's work in progress, it was only natural that they combined the two into a sort of Farewell To Summer song from their vivid summer memory.

This track is remixable, as long as it's noncommercial.

Art by Masha using Prismacolor Coloured Pencils, which were an amazing gift from @katyasolo. Cheers for that, Katya!

Synth work by Rob Ulysses (@rob-ulysses) and Masha Solo (@masha-solo)

Swag And a Bag

Once in my travels, two summers past,
I was on a long road trip for work around Oz,
On country roads, with sugarcane vast,
I saw something that made me drive back and pause,
I saw something that made me drive back and pause...

It really caught my eye,
And I still don't really know why!
But I had to take a photo,
Before I went back to work

It was just this really old van!

In an old junkyard, full of wildflowers, tropical brush,
(And although my job demanded I rush)
I saw that there was an old 60’s van that had seen better days,
It looked like it had seen so many sights, although now decays

(It was just this really old van!)

Before I moved on, I snapped a photograph,
On the side it said something that made me laugh (hah)
“Swag And A Bag” it said, on its side with a tag,
With bright teals and yellows surrounding the autograph
x2

I wondered who had once owned it and why,
If it was for tourists, who’d used it nearby,
What kind of adventures it had been on,
Even though its road trip days were gone
x2

I didn't even really know what 'Swag and a Bag' would mean,
I had to look it up.
But apparently it's really lucky-
It's like when something really good happens to you.
And I found that message positive.

“Swag And A Bag” it said, on its side with a tag,
With bright teals and yellows surrounding the autograph

“Swag And A Bag” it said, on its side with a tag,
With bright teals and yellows surrounding the autograph!

...And I found that message positive.
