BF Halloween Theremin Ableton Live Pack

This song was created using acoustic guitar, a Nintendo Entertainment System using MidiNES, synths, samples, and excitement about a blooming relationship. It was recorded in Ableton Live and mixed to a Tascam reel to reel to help warm the sound.
lyrics
Don't it feel good me and you 
We got the kind of love that is true 
Late at night when the people get lonely 
I got you to call my one and only 

Oh baby, man it's going to be 
B and C down in history 
We'll take a boat to a private island 
So it's only just you and me 

Hold me 
Baby 
All through the night 

Oh honey the feeling I get 
When I see you is never second best 
Makes me wanna dance and sing so loudly 
Grab my guitar and play it proudly 

Don't it feel good me and you

Ancient Ruins Drift

From the album Rectangles by Brian Funk. 
Available August 9th, 2023.

Can we get a little peace sign on the side, you mind
I’m looking back and seeing that it’s a part of you I know
Well I had a little in and out of body experience tonight
Where I had to float around drying off and cold, alright

Try and Find Me Will You
Try and Take me with you

Get a little bit closer to the road 
I figure if I’m not there yet then I can go back alone
Is your human nature awake today
Looking back I guess we’re all a fraud, oh no 

Try and Find Me Will You
Call Out to Me 
Try and Take me with you
Try and find me will you go
By me and decide that there’s nothing here for you

Try And Find Me

This song was made entirely with my Casio SK-1 Ableton Live Pack: https://brianfunk.com/casio-sk1

Light Years

This is a little song about the crazy lengths one might go to to prove their love to their girl. 

I would rather throw my money in the fire
And all of my things to show I'm no liar
I would drive my car right off of the highest bridge
I would let my body be bashed into a billion bits.
I'd rather take my life
And cut it with a knife
I would rather die than ever leave you
I'd rather get a gun 
And prove to everyone
That I would rather die than ever leave you
I'd never leave you

I tried to recreate the beautiful Univox bass guitar on this track by sampling it and building this Free Ableton Live Pack.

Tell Me The Answer

I give away my best  every day
For people who wish I’d just stay home
And I don’t think that I disagree
It’s not working out for them and it’s not working for me

Would you meet me in Montana
The cost of livings lower there
We could settle down and start over
Living here is costing me
The best times of my life

I’m not above giving up
There’s skill in knowing when enough is enough 
How you spend your day is how you spend your life
I’m tired of wishing away days for a weekend

Would you Meet me in Montana 
We could settle down out there
Picking up odd jobs and living small
Cuz living here is costing me
The best times of my life
I’m trading the best time of my life for a little money

I wanna know how to live
I wanna feel excited
And I don’t want to miss
A chance to ignite it

Would you meet me in Montana 
I know you had a lover there years ago
We could settle down and start over
Living here is costing me
The best times of my life

20 I'm Trading the Best Times of My Life for a Little Money

She got my ring in her pocket
And she’s heading into town
She got our picture in her locket
With my face scribbled out

And she looked me in the eye and she said
Bye Bye My Love

I had to climb over mountains
I was waiting in the rain
I called and called her number
I got the answering machine

And then she looked me in the eye and she said
Bye Bye My Love

She didn’t have no trouble
Telling me good bye
I gotta fix this rubble
What can I say
What I can I do
What do you want from me

She said there’s nothing here silly
And there’s nothing you can do
I’m running off with Billy
But out of respect for you

I’ll gonna look you in the eye and I’ll say
Bye bye my love

And then she looked me in the eye and she said
Bye Bye My Love

Snow Day

Wu Wei is a piece of music inspired by the Daoist concept of effortless action. It was made by sending a sequence to the Behringer Neutron and Model D, while running the sounds through Echo devices feeding back into each other. There's a heavily processed field recording  of rain and thunder in the background to add texture and ambience.

All sounds, except drums, were made with the 16 Bit Ableton Live Pack.
