This electronic music is great, catchy track, always so on the street and at the same time very well produced

FLIPPING BOPPING SYMPHONIES

This is the 3rd song Bitzone, Frawstakwa, and I have worked on together for my CKP page. I wanted this latest track to continue with the electronic hip hop vibe we had established with our previous two tracks.  Bitzone dug into his rich production archive and found a beat 10 years deep that met the criteria. This time I sent the track first to Frawstakwa to switch things up, since the last two songs I had started off. Frawstakwa came up with these deep metaphysical verse and chorus lyrics and I added a literal interpretation with my verse that I hoped would complement his meaning while keeping in theme with the previous two tracks. Bitzone then worked his magic and transformed the track into an electronic hip hop rock fusion. And then for a final surprise, he asked Joerxworx to join in with some futuristic EWI. In the end, I like that this track is different from It Ain’t Looking Good and Trendsetting and I think it points at a possible new direction for the next track we all work on together. 

Thank you for all your listenings, comments, playlists, radio spins, and purchases. The musical team is eternally grateful. 
Don’t loose hope, keep faith in yourself and your community, be creative, and persist.

Lyrics

Oh, this is just great 
Yo, gimme a break 
No, Freudian slip made
So, it’s no mistake
Go, psycho analyze it 
Though, am I insane
In the membrane
Or normal
It’s weird right?
We’re here but so briefly
Mere mortals
Appears our fate is foretold
How unfortunate 
Of course there’s this
Who says we have to forfeit free will
Forget about it
We are forward thinkers 
And forces of nature
Scratch that - supernatural
Look at how we have grown
And evolved
Lets explore
What’s beyond
What is known 
And accepted by all
Be omnidirectional 
Slow, in the fast lane 
Flow, like a mixtape
For, goodness sake
Over and over again 
Face total
Loss of control
Lack of faith
Don’t trip though
Effects cause vertigo
Catch wreck, let ‘em know
Fact check, general 
Search, research
Both the world and the earth
First you learn
Then you teach
Art and culture
To reach out and touch 
All of the people 
Them, no doubt indeed

What difference does it make
If at any given rate
The only thing that matters in the end is too late

What difference does it make
If at any given rate, yo!

Have you ever felt alone
In a place so dark, so vast, so cold

Everyday I pass by
The same lame busted gate 
The same 
Boarded up broken windows and
Old rusted grates
The same
Overflowing trash cans continue to accumulate with a ever-growing stench that won’t abate 
It’s the same
Neighborhood cats talking smack on da crates 
It’s the same
Families falling flat with not enough food on their plates
I’m passin’ by the same
Kids in baseball hats standing wet in wait 
Out there gettin’ rained on cause the bus is running late 
It straight 
Hasn’t changed at all 
What difference does it make
I’m still awake at dawn 
Exerting on 
Getting my debt rate gone
Word is born
What difference does it make
Cause pass generations gone
Still couldn’t pass it on
What difference does it make

What difference does it make 
If at any given rate
Things just stay the same

What difference does it make 
If at any given rate
We keep on playing games

What difference does it make 
If at any given rate
There really isn’t even anything else left for me to say

What Difference Does It Make

Bitzone, Joerxworx, RS Frawstakwa & the Couch King - What Difference Does It Make

Excerpt from The Electronic Symphony performed by Christian Levitan / Rothchild Score.

The whole is produced in the neo classic form, that is to say quasi without traditional instrument but sounds reconstruction by computer and Yamaha Digital Workstation PSR-S550. 
This track required more than 310 hours of work.
The sheet music decoding software is the exclusive property of The Music Bank & Christian Levitan and developed in China - RPC.

Big thank you to https://soundcloud.com/jonathan_beckenstein and Yaron Engler two musicians with a magical touch!

Life is complex, decisions are difficult, so I thought that flipping a bitcoin might help with that. Not sure of the science behind this but it was a lot of fun to  write ! https://youtu.be/Wn1euVtmcOw


A left or a right, I don’t know
A left or a right, I don’t know
Stroke a jawbone
Flip a bitcoin
That’s the sure way to know

Heading for heartache or gold
Heading for heartache or gold
Hard to decide
When to colour your blind
The red or the yellow brick road

Flip a bitcoin
Flip a bitcoin
Flip a bitcoin
So you don’t get purloined
Flip a bitcoin
Flip it again
One more time
Or the best out of ten

The red or the yellow brick road
The red or the yellow brick road
Don’t get purloined
Just flip a bitcoin…….

That’s the sure way to know

LYRICS:
Oh this life under the stars
I am weathered, I am worn
But these trade winds blow
And guide me home
Breathe in breathe out
No complications
I take my chances
When the dice are thrown

I’m thankful for the turning of the tide
Watch the waters flow and cast my fears aside
But there’s a time ………to take the strain
And the sun ……………….will rise again

I have no answers
To my questions
Though I wonder 
At the magic of it all
The hourglass
Tells its story
As these grains of sand 
Gently fall

I’m thankful for the turning of the tide
Watch the waters flow and cast my fears aside
But there’s a time ………to take the strain
And the sun ……………….will rise again

Oh this life under the stars
I am weathered, I am worn
But these trade winds blow
And guide me home

The Turning Of The Tide

For this track I used volca drum for the lofi beat as I've often done lately. Many of the synth lines are made with the minilogue xd, but I also tested out a modern wavetable vst (vital), a type of synthesis I haven't yet experimented with much. You can hear it in the deep resonant line that comes in for the final minute or so. I'm looking forward to further experimenting with it!

The photo is from a  strange national park in Utah called Goblin Valley  that has a lot of interesting rock forms. I spent some time camping with friends there years ago, though I didn't take this particular photo.

Gotta Keep It Real - FRAWSTAKWA (prod. Assá)

What an honor to be invited to collaborate with ace guitarist, composer, and producer Seagull to create a moving tribute and memorial to the people of Ukraine; those who have been displaced, those who chose to remain, those who have perished in the senseless, needless war, especially the children.  Seagull directed my attention to this very recently release video featuring Pink Floyd and Andriy Khlyvnyuk of Boombox.  It is incredibly moving. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUfVmtAvfdg

Clara: Vocals
David: Acoustic Guitar

When The Light Fades (with Seagull, Clara, and David)

Play it loud.

I tried to look
But it hurts my eyes
Is this the truth I see
Or only lies

I can't see you
I can't fell you now
I can't hear you
I can't feel you now

Rich Man Lyrics

This one is called Rich Man. In our last song, the poor man was trying to get by with limited funds. In this one, our hero is just enjoying life with whatever he can. He's happy just living life.

Lyrics;
I walk in old shoes
Drive on old wheels
Don't have much money
But that's not how I feel
Cause I'm a rich man

I do what I need
And that's getting me by
Got two feet on the ground
And my Head in the sky

I travel lightly
Not much to my name
But I've got all I need
Just the same
I'm a rich man

Wherever I'm at
Is where I want to be
And I'm living my life
Like this world's made for me
I'm a rich man

I have my friends
And my family
They're all the best people
And they're rich just like me


I've traveled the highways
In sunshine and rain
Slept in a boxcar
Of many a train
I've loved and lost
And I still feel the pain
But life is for living
And I can't complain

I don't need a thing
To prove my success
Nobody out there
I need to impress
But I'm a rich man

I do what I need
And that gets me by
Two feet on the ground
My head in the sky

I might walk in old shoes
and drive on old wheels
Not much money
But that's not how I feel
Cause I'm a rich man

I'm a rich man
a rich man
a rich man ...

Rich Man

Always one of my favorites from the Stones.  When I had the chance to "learn" it I jumped at the chance to get my take on it out there.  Peace!
