This is my first song using only eurorack modular synth gear for all the sounds (except the beat, from a "toy" Yamaha PSS-50, & the guitar solo*).  It's also the first in decades with me doing "real" singing, haha, & whistling, wth?! ;)  It needed vocals so I made up some lyrics (below) which fit the creepy mood.  Don't worry, it's not autobiographical.

*Special thanks to Allan Abrenica for performing the guitar solo! - I composed it on a synth but it needed a real guitar.  Check him out https://soundcloud.com/lost-ph and https://soundcloud.com/ageara/tracks. Thanks as well to Steve Newland https://www.thelightafternoon.com/ for his generous assistance with noise reduction for the PSS-50 & Clint Collins https://soundcloud.com/user-836903146 for finding the perfect song image: "Hand with Reflecting Sphere" by Maurits Cornelis Escher (colorized).

Lyrics:
You, looking at me, want to know what I'm thinking
But I won't tell you oh no
Won't tell you
None of your business

Do, do you really think
There's the slightest chance
That we will ever agree on anything?

No, you're not my kind of person
No you're not my kind you see
This is just the way it is
Try not to blame it all on me

So I'm blocking your transmission?
Can you forgive this imposition
On all of your well-laid plans?
Shame on me
So inconvenient

No, you're not my kind of person
No you are not my kind you see
This is just the way it is
Try not to blame it all on me

No, you are not my kind of person
No you are not the kind I need
This is just the way it is
Try not to bleed all over, me...
