I'm Getting High Tonight

this is a metaphor
for loving back
this is incredible
I am sure of that

I'm getting high tonight

this is a social score
that buys you back
this is a grocery store
that's filled with snacks
there isn't time for war

'cause I'm getting high tonight
I'm getting high tonight
I'm getting high tonight
gonna feel dynamite
this here is living life
like if you had one time
I'm getting high tonight

this is a metaphor
for all I've done right
this isn't debatable
don't front tonight
the higher the, right?

well, I'm getting high tonight
I'm getting high tonight
well, I'm getting high tonight
gonna feel dynamite
this here is living life
like if you had one time
I'm getting high tonight

I'm getting high tonight
forgetting all of you
calming a somber mood
resetting abhorrent views
letting the love pull through
I'm getting high tonight

I'm getting high...

I'm Getting High Tonight

Of Those That Were There, Few Will Ever Forget

Disquiet Junto Project 0467: Toolbox Show & Tell. The Assignment: Share a tip for making music that you learned during the pandemic.

80% of my music started on a cheap android DAW app called "Caustic". The sound is not perfect, but I like the workflow. Anyway, since 1 year or so I try to switch to Ableton Live. Because of the lockdown I had a lot of time to flatten the learning curve with this DAW.

My tip is about "Follow Action", to bee seen in the Clip Editor. Follow Action allows a clip to trigger other clips by probability, in the screen example of the track cover there is "play again" with prob 1, "play any other" with prob 2. The clip is one of of many clips which only contains some note on a scale or a chord.

Normally I somehow reject pure generative music, although I place a lot of value on chance in my own. It always seemed dishonorable to me to let a software (that I didn't write myself) generate music and claim this music to be "mine".

However, with "Follow Action" I have the possibility to achieve an (in my opinion) honorable mix of probabilities and composition.

In this case, there are different tracks with different signatures and different Gongs in A minor. I even added "empty" clips to get some "silence" into it. The probabilty for the different tracks differs, one could for example use one track to establish sequencial clip triggers, to include motives that are bigger than inside a bar.

(And please consider "honorable" a way to big word here…)

Listen w 🎧👂🏾pls) 🚀🕊 This arrangement’s conception was originally to be a ‘lighter’ cover, but with recent events, honestly, producing this gave me solace from the reality of my frustration, sadness, disappointment, and a deep dive into my vivid imagination. I flipped this song into my motivation, to keep me moving forward, to remember that I come from resillent stock. I kept imaging a utopia for Black bodies to thrive without constant violence against them, simply for existing. A utopia where humans, no matter their ethnic background, wouldn’t be devalued because of their skin color, nor origin, but be accepted & celebrated for their uniqueness — to only be seen by their spirit. Like @lennykravitz said, "𝘓𝘦𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘚𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘭𝘺, 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘖𝘯𝘦." I want to see a world where we do more collaborating and less isolating. I want to see real support for Black women, the same way that Black women always have, and always will give to ALL others. I imagine a world where Black bodies aren’t snatched up by the institution that is whiteness, and the collective energy for change really shifts our culture of fear and depression to abundance and the sharing of resources; where Black, Brown, & Indigenous peoples have institutional support and care. In the meantime, I will continue to strive for Black Joy, and choose the radical act of taking care of myself. Remembering Dr. MLK & Coretta Scott King on this day, and uplifting all of whom feel disheartened by these times. I see you 🖤🚀🕊✈️

Some guitar melody added to ikjoyce's synth track: https://soundcloud.com/ikjoyce/disquiet0472-jamtimebacking

I chose to play in F harmonic minor instead of natural minor. The sharp 7th sounds a little off sometimes but I like it.
