This is like three styles in one - I gotta say, I'm intrigued

great voice! Wow! I agree about the Lana del Rey comment too.

This is a good sound that you are creating. Good engineering!

### Part I: The Seed (The Storm)
Sky cracks open,  
city weeps with me,  
wipers beat time,  
rain against the glass.  

### Part II: The First Unfolding (The Struggle)
Parked outside,  
swore I’d never be here,  
streetlight flickers,  
knows my history.  

### Part III: The Second Unfolding (The Tear)
Pressed words too hard,  
page began to tear,  
pen gave up,  
couldn’t take the air.  

### Part IV: The Convergence (The Realization)
Paper curled,  
wilted on the dash,  
every drop of rain,  
smearing “yours” into “mine.”  

### Part V: The Coda (The Reflection)
Half a lyric,  
half a heart that won’t repair,  
pen gave up,  
before I could say I still care.  

Ink in the rain,  
running down the page,  
every line I write,  
just washes away.  

Crying in the car,  
headlights bleeding through,  
every song I start,  
keeps ending with you.  

Ink In The Rain by Lori Yamamoto

Hate cause I'm straight out the gate I be carryin' weight and it ain't no debate 
Splittin' n rippin' this page / inflictin' invincible limitless rage cause I'm here to stay this drip is insane
listen you're trippin' I'm different persistent you know dat I hop out this cage
got All the systems engaged when I kill the stage you know what I say 

Maybe I'm stuck in my ways, prayin' and hopin' for change but now I'm thinkin it's prolly too late yo / 
My vision is out of this frame. Alla the distance is tame you come to my city I show you the game
Know I be rhyming insane, Rap myself straight to the grave while alla ya ballers can wait, lame 
comin' from minimum wage, still say no thank you yeah please keep the change, know that we keep it this way

Heard dat you call yourself fire but I looked and there's barely a flame, damn. 
K now dat I'm spittin' the gas like I got it all up in these tanks, man 
I be out makin' them gains and grinding my way just uppin' my name so / 
stay in your lane cause I don't got time to stop on a dime if y'all are just tame

You know I be pavin' the way as I'm painting a maze on this page, ayy
You know I be pavin' the way as I'm painting a maze on this page

Painted Maze (Interlude) (Prod. Fantom)

Weirdo Dance

I am a guitar player who plays mostly Blues, Jazz, and Rock. This is totally out of my wheelhouse. It was inspired by a backing track I was noodling over. I decided to see if I could create something inspired by it in Cubase. I dug what was going on so I decided to try and take the experiment further. 

I used Vocaloid 5 to create the vocals, as I am a horrible singer. I programmed every instrument (including vocals) that isn't guitar via MIDI and recorded the guitar parts conventionally. It's a brave new world.

For the lyrics, I just tried to come up with corny "pop" lines on the spot as I was programming each section of the song. The guitar is my heart and soul on display (what little there is of the two, anyway), even if the rest is MIDI programming. 

I used Cubase 10.5 Chord Tracks for most of the piano/synth, EZ Keys for the more complicated piano/synth intro, Superior Drummer 3 for the drum tracks. I recorded my guitar DI with a line 6 helix stomp and used a mix of my guitar transposed down an octave, EZ bass, and a Contrabass synth generated by the Cubase chord track for the bass parts.  I created the vocals with Vocaloid 5.0.  Mixed and mastered with the help of Izotope Neutron and Ozone.

All in all, I think this is not easily discernible as a mostly computer/MIDI/synth generated creation. Let me know what you think and thanks for the listen!
