Lyrics:
Escher
By David Husted 

I can't explain the unexplained
Seasons change but not this pain 
You took my heart I must confess
This empty space inside my chest

Could you perhaps bring it back?
I think it  would help me stand back up
From holding everything with all my might
From holding everything so god damn tight

They say Let it Go
They say Let It Go

Could you perhaps bring it back?
It would help me stand back up
From holding everything with all my might
From holding everything so god damn tight

Let it Go
I got to let this go

Set it Down
Burn the Ground
Let her go
I Know
Turn Around
Lost
You Can't Find Me
 
The sea swelling, swelling a quiet turquoise blue
The sky follows, follows but I can't follow you
It was a  perfect, perfect, impermanent
Lovely life

I can't explain the unexplained
Seasons change but not this pain 
You took my heart I must confess
This  empty space inside my chest
 
Could you perhaps bring it back?
I think it  would help me stand back up
From holding everything with all my might
From holding everything so god damn tight

Hello Dear Listener, 

It is interesting how I produce a song.  If you are listening to my new song Escher for the first time, or if you will be listening to it shortly (it will be released on 02 APR 21 as of this writing), please know that I myself have already listened to the song approximately 1 Million 700 fifty thousand and two times. I am joking, however, I have indeed listened to this song many, many times during both the crafting and mastering stages.  This is the same pattern for all my songs and I suspect it is the same pattern for any music song writer and producer.  My point is, since it is my song, I have a certain unconditional love for it, even if I think it will not necessarily be one of my best. In other words,  I never really get sick of it.  It is part of me somehow.  Yes, perhaps I may have some form of pervasive, neurotic obsessive compulsive need to endlessly loop and tweak a song into oblivion but that is another matter : ).  To wrap this Blog up: I just love creating music and appreciate that you are here joining me in my continued creation journey.  Much Gratitude. 

Cheers to You 

Dave

Why is it called Escher?  As with all my song's, it is usually a combination of the moment, the music arrangement and the sound particulars.  Finally, the lyrics exactly or by some subtle vibe the atmosphere of the lyrics creates.    

This song has a patch I found using my Omnisphere Synth called Escher's Staircase.  So, obviously, that patch had something to do with it.  However, the lyrics, though not actually having anything to do with Escher or his work, did contain a certain vibe that felt like someone wandering through an Escher like maze where one finds at every turn some Twilight Zone like mis-direction of where they actually thought they would end up. So that, in a nut shell, is how I landed on this song title.  It just felt right to me after I had time to simmer in the stew of the lyrics and song for a bit post production.  I often give my song's a "tracking" name as it develops but this often changes or morphs as production evolves and the song falls into its final tapestry.   

Thanks and if you have any questions or comments let me know. The song is scheduled to release on 02 APR 21!    Thank You for dropping by my Music Cave!

I didn’t give a damn
About that boogey man
He's on the tv screen
And deep inside Wuhan

But he got out.    
Of that; there's no doubt
Then he pulled a fast one, and snuck on an airplane 
Then Rome came down

Ah………
Then Rome Came Down

Don't mince words with me

Go wash your hands, don’t touch your face, cough in your elbow
Give me FUCKING 6 feet

My next song in the queue will be called "Rome". Some of you may have heard a demo version of this already. I first became aware of COVID-19 when it hit Italy. The slow looming cloud of its potential impact crept into my skull at that point and, despite my best efforts, it sneaked into a song. Since we are largely past the worst of this storm, I feel better about letting my song go. 


4/12/20 5:31 PM 


Well; this is about COVID-19. Hopefully by the time you are hearing this the Pandemic will be largely over (cross fingers) and the ordeal just bitter memory deep in our mind vaults.   I could not release this during that crazy time period precisely because I felt too close to it.  However, it was the song that arrived at that time and I believe I am ready to share it with you now.   

I felt the virus as a boogey man underneath my bed (like when you were a kid).  Parents said he's not real yet the hairs on the back of my neck raised up anyway.  The 6 ft distance became a symbol for separation and mandated "sheltering in place"  Zombiehood distancing from human warmth.  I am an introvert by nature so this separation was probably not good for me on the whole.  My immediate family helped to save me on a daily basis just by being themselves.   Thank You.

There is a fair bit of fear and pleading laced throughout the song.  It is not cheery (sorry about that) but it is a cool song none-the-less and captures the essence of my mood during this time.    Give it a listen and let me know what you think.

Garden
By David Husted

V1
Never living; feel the knock of the branch
Crack the window of a heart in despair
Happiness on deferred payment plans 
Future occurrence, might inherit

Say it's a habit just
mental acrobatics just
Flip your world around and be

Happiness just because, period
Not happiness that always needs a

"Because of" …….
"Happiness" …….

V2
Love

Plant the garden and the weeds still come up
Life's not easy  but you've got to respond 
fill it up throw that bucket of dung
Soak the ground and hope some seeds will come up

Open up slowly
And crowd out the lowly mess of 
Thoughts in my head I conceive  

Happiness just because, period
Not happiness that always needs a 

"Because of" …….
"Happiness" …….

Bridge
There a real fine line between death and fear
What's your working definition of ….absurdity
Two steps forward and one step back
It can feel like our whole world might be under attack

What you lack, like an axe coming down
Juggernaut, endless wheel round n round
Figure out, 
Make It Stop
Loosen Up

The situation in Ukraine is heartbreaking and incomprehensible……it ain't right.

I saw one specific example (of many) in a news article that really got to me about the effects of this senseless war on ordinary people.  People just trying to live their ordinary human lives in peace, coming from towns probably similar to the one you or I may have grown up in.  Instead, they are ripped from this existence because a psychopath decides he needs to acquire a new piece of dirt and a bigger crown.  He will level cities and mow down innocent people to get it.  

I recently watched a news feature covering a shell shocked 15 year old boy who had lost his mother in an awful attack.  He was still obviously stunned and coping.  Towards the end of the interview it became clear that one of his coping mechanisms was just wanting to play his guitar for awhile to get through the dark nights ahead….to hold on to a strand of something normal.  This hit me quite hard as it is probably a characteristic I too would have fallen back on as coping mechanism (a keyboard in my case)

 The other powerful thing that came through was his un-questioned determination to still go back and rebuild the city one day. This seemed to be just a given.  This was going to happen. This steadfast resolve and heroism in the Ukrainian people in general is moving and inspiring and probably has a lot to do with what they went through and achieved in the 2013/2014 timeframe when they ousted a Putin placed dictator the first time.  The Netflix documentary called Winter on Fire captures this struggle for independence very well.  They will not give up this hard won independence easily.

This all influenced my latest song creation.  

Thank You for your courage Andriy and I wish you strength, resilience and resolve to keep moving forward.  This song is dedicated to you and your family.

This song is about that dividing line between reality and the in-between. That space where your chattering mind continues to chatter but that wise essence speaks just beyond the still harbor breathing; allowing your loud to be just a little bit softer now; floating down near that water line. You can paint your masterpiece from there too; perhaps along a quiet beach. Muddle the fresh mint leaves my friend; yes, Sugar and Lime, stirred easy.

Groovy Mon; I want to go there dude

The ocean doesn’t mind, mind, the ocean doesn't mind, mind
Drifting down from the water line,  down from the water line
Your loud's a little softer now, Your  oud's a little softer now
Floating down, floating, floating, floating, floating down 

Muddle the fresh mint leaves; yes
Sugar and Lime, stirred ea…………sy

I looked back at the few notes I collected during this Photo Op's song development time-frame and concluded I did not have much to go on after a two year lapse.  The lyrics were not fully documented in my notebook. I must have been using lyric ideas and ad-libbing them into the song. I do not know my state of mind and wish I was better at capturing this closer to the song's conception point.

Life was still fairly locked down due to Covid, Trump was still in-office and the George Floyd protests were ongoing. The song was created without any direct outside musical influence driving the creative direction. This was me inside my studio starting from ground zero and evolving the song over the course of probably several weekends by playing around with sounds, rhythms and textures until a fuzzy shape of cohesion slowly emerged.

Listening back, I suspect, I smashed together two fairly divergent musical ideas. Bold move Dave and perhaps disastrous from a song gluing perspective. I like it anyway. Lyrics were influenced by what was going on around me and one of those things was a narcissist clutching a bible and clearing a peaceful protest with tear gas to enable his next photo op in front of the church.  A holy moment indeed. 

Lyrics
Photo Op
by David Husted

Dew drop dreams
Silly games
Buy some more stuff
Throw it away
Is it me?
Where did I go?
When we turn our backs
let them take it away.

They say it's gonna rain again
I don’t have an umbrella
They say its time to hate again
Photo ops and killing

Is it really so improbable?
State news and oligarchs selling fools
Make lies a game, and fear predominant 
Shake the base of our democracy

What's this song about Dave?

This song is in the indie-electronic domain but has a certain jazz vibe with the bass. It has a not easily defined yet original flow and feel. It speaks to our societal and work related anxieties; always asking us to do a bit more, move a bit faster. We will Take That Hill the first time and maybe even the second..... but after that it's time to consider options.

I provide a more detailed peek into my lyric creation process for this song in my Blog at https://davidhusted.com/welcome Check it out!

There have been major music events in the past like The Beatles appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show (1964) or Queen's Live Aid Performance (1985). There have been some epic music video releases like David Bowie - "Ashes to Ashes" (1980) or Michael Jackson - "Thriller" (1983). Until Now! Ready your engines friends; there is going to be some earth shaking, powerful magic on the way. Clear the deck and get ready to experience pure happiness. Don't be left behind! Yes!!

wish I had a little more.
Threw my hand down bought another round of chasers
bouncer walked me out the door.

small stage with a guitar.
Singing Footloose with a dude dressed like Elvis.
He dropped the mic and danced some more.

Hey,   there's gonna be hell to….

The vibe and lyrics of the song circle themes of time, destruction and transformation. Song development was influenced by a plug-in instrument I acquired that enables me to create rhythms and textures using both tabla drums and the sitar. This is not my typical music genre but I was very happy with the outcome. 

Thank You

Dave

Your the pestle to ground the root
To shake my truth, without gun powder

The secrets of flowers golden
The halls of wise, the dreams that lie behind
The paradise we long for

You take my cynical, my rigid , my narrow mind stiffening
You mix me it in your crucible, release internal conflicts
I'm tired of being wrapped up in my revolutions
Un-dress me take me inside your peaceful evolution

I kind of think I might 
I kind of think I might 
I kind of think I might 
I kind of think I might

------------------------------------------

I have a new song release scheduled for 13 DEC 24 called Alchemy and Stones. 

In one of my past song journal entries my word of the day was amalgam and I threw in the word alchemy for good measure.  During the lyric building process for this song my brain seemed to be still heavily steeped in the essence of these words. They were percolating through my thought streams. Much of the lyrical content contains imagery associated with this chemistry of the past and its mythic symbols. Our messy world provided additional ingredients that fell into the steaming crucible and began to round out this song into its final state.

There were four different songs that fed my creative spark and development process.  They were the following:

Spoon: Wild
James McMurtry: Canola Fields
Fruit Bats: Waking Up in Los Angeles
Taylor Swift: Anti-Hero

Deep bow of gratitude to all these artists.  My primary reference for the arrangement was Wild and it had the deepest structural influence on the song. The McMurtry song helped me hit on an idea for the chorus melody that seemed to stick with me and I liked his vocal delivery and cadence. The Fruit Bats was really not used at all but I loved the ohhhs in the chorus and wanted to find a way to emulate the laid back ease of them in my song.  However, my particular song style, tempo and arrangement just never allowed an entry point. The Fruit Bats song did keep the juices flowing though so that is why it still receives honorable mention in this write-up.

Finally, the  song by Taylor Swift: Anti-Hero did have a role in my song believe it or not.  If you listen to one of the synths you will hear a gated pumping sound courtesy of an Auto Pan and a Phaser-Flanger Plug-in. I really should thank a Music Producer named Ill Factor for teaching me the sound design process here. He demonstrated the technique in a YouTube video. Pretty cool.  As I have said before, I learn something new in every new song I build.  It is always deeply enjoyable for me. I also appreciate you for leaning in and listening. I wish you all the very best.

Thank You

Have a Great Weekend,

Step into the Athanor

Friends,

On behalf of my son Jeffrey Husted and myself we present a song called:
93 Million Miles. Jeff is the featured vocalist. He is my all-time favorite rock/pop star; Thank You Jeff! I Love You.

The lyrics were written well over a year ago but several lines in separate verses are resonating with me with greater charge today given the state of our world.

"You could just turn-away and let them have their way
Tell us all the reasons why it's too late
Fall into that rage
A burning star of pain 
and you may believe your crazy
You're not alone, we're all afraid"

"…I know it ain't been easy 
To be that change, to be that peace today"

 "Stand-up; gotta Stand-up
they'll be a sweet sunrise in the morning"
 

The phrase “Close your eyes and see” is reflected in my original lyrics as the final line but not sung in the final mix of the song. You will have to imagine them.

Please subscribe to my YouTube Channel and follow my Artist Profile on Spotify and Facebook just because because!!

David Husted  
Feat. Jeffrey Husted
 

You could just turn-away and let them have their way
Tell us all the reasons why it's too late
Fall into that rage
A burning star of pain 
and you may believe your crazy
You're not alone, we're all afraid

That heat, 93 million miles
That peace, come on home
That heat, 93 million miles
That peace, come on home

Can you take me to that refuge that feel's like a mother's grace
Can you burn away the madness in the light of day
Can you take me too that place?
I know it ain't been easy  
To be that change, to be that peace today  

That heat, 93 million miles
That peace, come on home
That heat, 93 million miles
That peace, come on home

Stand-up; gotta Stand-up
they'll be a sweet sunrise in the morning  
Close your eyes and see

That heat, 93 million miles
That peace, come on home
That heat, 93 million miles
That peace, come on home

If you have ever felt caught in the eddies of your own….. creation
If thunder has ever echoed through your bones
If you can't make those rapids any louder
Then shout, so I can hear you beneath the foam

I'll lend you a hand

V1
In these rapids wild, my spirit roams,
Where the waters rush, and dreams find homes,

I'm a wanderer

I'm a traveler lost in a swirling tide,
Searching for truth, in waters deep and wide.

I'm a wanderer

Pre Ch
Caught in the eddies of my own….. creation
Thunder echoes through my bones
Can't make those rapids any louder
Shout, cause I can't hear beneath the foam

Ch
I'm a wanderer
This current takes its toll
This water carries me
on this journey all alone

I'm a wanderer
This current takes its toll
This water carries me
on this journey all alone

I reckon with the choices I have made
And let the past slowly fade

My latest song, Empire, was born from the haunting Dunkirk beach scene—young soldiers lined up in silence under the blazing sun, waiting. No speeches, no music—just the weight of dread. Their stillness felt like bravery. Above, RAF pilots fought unseen, alone in the sky, risking everything for those below. The song emerged as a sound collage, built from simple chords and evolving textures that captured the quiet courage and tension I felt. It’s a sonic reflection of that liminal space—between fear and hope, action and stillness.

Indie pop with a pulse. “Train’s Comin” is a synth-driven, emotionally charged ride from music producer and songwriter David Husted, a growing artist known for crafting introspective soundscapes from his home studio. With shimmering textures, poetic tension, and a hook that lingers, this track explores the uneasy hope of peace, love, and understanding in a restless world. For fans of heartfelt synth indie-alternative with atmosphere, meaning, and momentum.

_____________________________________________

My new song Train's Comin' was just released!!  

It is hard to keep hope alive in these difficult times but I think that is what Train's Comin' is about. 

The song Peace, Love and Understanding was originally made famous and performed by Elvis Costello and the Attractions. I love performing this song not just because it is a blast to play but also because of the simple, straight-forward weight of the phrase Peace, Love and Understanding that lands so nice and clean. It fills the heart with something good in the moment of shouting it. 

Peace, Love and Understanding was written during a time of political turmoil and social unrest in the UK. It was meant to be a satirical yet earnest commentary on the era’s cynicism toward peace movements. Despite its hopeful message, Nick Lowe wrote it with a certain irony, asking why ideals like peace, love, and understanding were treated as naïve or laughable.

Elvis Costello’s interpretation transformed the song into a new wave anthem. His intense vocal delivery and the Attractions’ urgent instrumentation gave it a biting edge. This version became iconic, resonating with the late-’70s mood of disillusionment mixed with a yearning for hope.

So, Dave, why the deeper dive into this particular song? 
The phrase Peace, Love and Understanding emerged as a plea and a shout in my own latest song. 

You can find out more about my song development for Train's Comin' in my journal here.

Much Peace, Love and Understanding my friends.

Sincerely

Dave

_____________________________________________________

The title for Train's Comin' emerged out of copious amounts of train like sound design rhythmic effects laced through-out the song. In other words, I think the instrumentation and sound design led me to the Train. The bridge: this was a separate idea which I plunged in to the song like a red hot iron plunged in to the fire. Why did I add this? Just Because I felt like it. I had such fun creating it that I did not want to lose it forever AND I noted the synth pre-set called New Order Pulses had a vague sound of surreal train horns blasting through a psychic underworld or something along those lines ; ).

Thank You Nick Lowe and Elvis Costello for the lyrical inspiration of Peace Love and Understanding shouted throughout the song.

Trains Comin' 
by David Husted

V1
You better wake me up
This dream's filling me with hope
That's not a sentiment…
I know how to deal with
 
And then you lay me down
These cold rails on the ground
is that a train coming?
Or a trembling in my head?

ch
You better wake me up
I am a deep, deep love 
I'm this train coming
With track leading to your heart

And then there's peace, 
and then there's love, 
and then there's understanding

You better wake me up
I am a deep, deep love 
I'm this train coming
With track leading to your heart

[bridge]

ch
And then there's peace, 
and then there's love, a
and then there's understanding

You better wake me up
I am a deep, deep love 
I'm this train coming

I have decided to take you into my studio lair for a peak into the cobwebs, corners and hidden nooks; the very mad-house of my thinking, or at least as best I can recollect the moments of……"Song Creation". I will use a single song to highlight my process. My friends and fellow song creators may recognize strands of their own process here, however, it is understood, that song formation has no right way or wrong way. It is as individual and eclectic as art itself. That is what keeps it fun. I will keep the write-ups short but will pile them on in increments until you or I have had enough.

Song Lyrics
Eclipse
By David Husted


I'm trapped by a devil who controls the scrolling screen  
When I come back up I can't remember my name
so filled with dread cuz I'm waitin' on that judgement day
Swipe away this lonely pain

Tik-Tok, Reels and YouTube Shorts  
I'm jacked in, I can't abort
Cut this thread or waste away

Woke up on the sand with waves erasing your name
Eclipse, burning my eyes as she takes me to a higher plane
This veil of flames, and I don't know how much time remains
As daylight dims, this might be it
This might be it, will I taste the world again?

It's been three days since I threw my phone away
All went quiet but the tears and body shakes  
And the day light bows to the moon's deep blues
And in this mystery, I still miss you
 
Tik-Tok, Reels and YouTube Shorts  
I'm jacked in, I can't abort
Cut this thread or waste away

Woke up on the sand with waves erasing your name
Eclipse,  burning my eyes as she takes me to a higher plane
This veil of flames, and I don't know how much time remains
As daylight dims, this might be it
This might be it, will I taste the world again?

Go here for a deeper dive into my music making lab: https://davidhusted.com/welcome

My latest song was meant to come out just before Halloween, but life intervened, and the official release didn’t land until today, 14 Nov 25. So be it.

The atmosphere of the piece is loosely inspired by a novel I read years ago—Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell.

I set out to build a cinematic sound with orchestration that leans into the eerie and surreal—a deliberately unsettling, ominous tone. My aim was to create something that could live in a thriller, a dark film, or a gritty TV sequence.

One particular sound-designed tone pulled me deep into the project’s sonic direction. It’s difficult to describe, and it appears throughout the track. Instead of trying to explain it, I’ll point directly to it: go to the 53-second mark. You’ll hear it clearly—a cold, almost chilling signal—and it recurs several times as the song unfolds.

Below is the link to the YouTube song video version. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYSeex8pk4E
The video isn’t meant as a full visual production—it’s a patchwork of quickly gathered clips assembled to give the track some motion and atmosphere. Think of it as a rough visual companion rather than a centerpiece, created simply to carry the music forward.

Thank you for giving the song a listen—your time and attention mean more than you know. Please stream this song on your favorite streaming platform numerous times (Apple, Pandora, Spotify, other). I'll spring for a coffee or beer with you at the pub once all the royalties start rolling in ; )

Have a Fantastic Weekend!!  and Thanks Again.

Sincerely,

Dave

Today my new single “heartbeat drops” is officially out on all streaming services. 

If you’ve followed my music for a while, this song should feel familiar in spirit — textured, reflective, and focused on emotional truth rather than polish. It’s not a song that rushes to a point; it settles in and lets the feeling unfold.

You can find heartbeat drops now on Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, and wherever you listen. I’ve also made a companion video on YouTube that stays close to the tone of the song.

Thanks for being here and for listening — truly. Songs don’t really exist until someone else spends time with them, and I don’t take that lightly.

Heartbeat Drops
By David Husted

Intro
{strings}
 
Verse
I notice the world but I can't get in
Sign says "Welcome", but the rooms not vacant
Now you know I never quite defined

My life

little like a movie that's playin' in my head
There's a boss, a coward, know it all and fake friends
and you know I never said I mind

Hmmmm…
My mind

Chorus
Aching with this picture of you
I'm so stuck and don't know what to do
Fan the fire and I can't make it stop
heartbeat drops
close my eyes but the tears still well up

Bridge
Cause I miss you
I really miss you

I really miss you

Verse

I took your life for granted in many ways
Through a rear view mirror, your shadow plays.
Around those curves drifting out of site

Hmmmm.
Goodbye

Chorus
Aching with this picture of you
I'm so stuck and don't know what to do
Fan the fire and I can't make it stop
heartbeat drops
close my eyes but the tears still well up

Fan the fire and I can't make it stop
heartbeat drops
close my eyes but the tears still well up

Outro
Cause I miss you
Cause I miss you
Oh 
I really miss you

I really, really miss you



around the curves

Hi everyone,

My new song “Bite Down on That Block” just dropped today.

Like most of my releases, the easiest way to hear it is through the video. I put it together as a visual companion to the track — something that moves with the rhythm and mood of the song rather than sitting still behind it.

If you’ve got a few minutes, I’d love for you to check it out:

▶ Watch / listen here  on Youtube https://youtu.be/1v5e9ShYq-s?si=KBwNFfYyP3Friv5K


The song leans into a darker indie groove with synths at the center. It came out of that strange tension a lot of us are carrying around these days — the background noise of the world that slowly creeps into the body.

If the track connects with you, leaving a comment or sharing the video really helps the algorithm gods notice it.

Thanks as always for listening and supporting the music.

— Dave

Lyrics
 	Bite Down on That Block
	By David Husted
	
	The train, the train, watching the world go by, watching the world go by
	The hand, the hand, wraps against my window pane, raps against my window's pain
	And he knows if he closes his eyes he wont see anything
	But you  
	But you  
	But you  
	
	That game that game making the squares line up making the squares line up
	We scroll, we scroll, watching the frames go by, watching the frames go by
	And you know if you close your eyes you'll still see them anyway
	
	And this chip in my brain. They might know everything
	
	On the porch there's a man who watches the watched
	If you ask him what he's doing he'll probably nod  
	Take off his hat tell you to look at his…… brain
	Surprise, surprise sir he's totally sane
	
	
	Shocked
	Lay down don't you fight
	Shocked
	Bite down on that block
	
	Shocked
	Your out of your mind
	Shocked
	Shackled and shined
	
	The Grimm in the dim light waits till the dark of night, waits till the dark of night
	The sleep The sleep, pulling the shadow's near, pulling the shadow's near
	And he knows if he opens his eyes he might see everything
	But you
	But you
	But you
	
	In the garden there's a woman who stands in thick rain
	If you ask her what she's doing she'll start dance
	Rip off her clothes and tell you to look in her eyes
	Surprise, surprise hon love's totally blind
	
	Shocked
	Lay down don't you fight
	Shocked
	Bite down on that block
	
	Shocked
	Your out of your mind
	Shocked
	Shackled and shined

********************
 
I became curious about the arrangement development and transition process that different artist use during the course of a song.  The main question I was dealing with was what are the subtle things a composer does to keep the song interesting throughout the entire song arrangement? 

Human Beings like repetition but not duplication.  What I mean is that we like to grab hold of a catchy melody or rhythm and desire coming back to it a couple of times throughout a song. However, we notice when it’s an exact copy of something we have heard earlier in the song (we are very smart creatures).  I have been guilty of copying an earlier verse or chorus and plopping it note for note down later in the song…DON”T DO THIS.   It is important to add something new, different and exciting as the song progresses.   Give the listener something new every step of the way.   During this song I learned from other artists who are very good at this and tried to emulate some of their techniques.      

I continued my study of sampling during this latest musical project.  What better genre than Electronic Dance Music (EDM) to showcase the technology.  This song is called “Be All You” which rolled off the tongue so easy and blended so well with my particular groove established early on in the song.  As is typical with EDM you will hear plenty of tension building synthesizer magic teamed up with EDM traditional “four to the floor” kicks.  This partnership often ending in pregnant pauses or nail biting drum fills foreshadowing what is famously known in EDM as the “Drop” where all that tension explodes into an epic Chorus eruption.    

I used software known as Kontakt for the sampling.  There is a lot under the “hood” here and I have much to learn.  I used my own voice as the experimental fodder and basically split it up into slices and mapped them to my keyboard keys.  Then, via special algorithms in the software, essentially “time stretched” my voice to my songs own tempo.   This process maintained the rhythmic integrity to my voice slices despite the pitch changes (remember; typically if you bring something up in frequency it wants to play faster .....the chipmunk voice effect….I did not want that).   You can hear examples of this “vocoder” like effect sprinkled throughout the song.  What fun.  

SO who cares about all this technical crap anyway.  They key is that the song has to hold up on its own and actually be GOOD.  I believe I have achieved that as I noticed I want to dance when I listen to it.  You will have to decide for yourself ; )   Thanks Again for listening and please enjoy my latest "all original" musical plunge. 

Thanks for allowing me to share my music creation process with you and hope this inspires you to create something new yourself.

LYRICS
Be All You 
by David Husted 

Everyday through the pain, it might be lonely 
Can You Circle Love? 
Can You Show Me How? 

Looking right past the trees, the moments in-between 
Can you read my mind? 
Can You Show Me How? 

Everyday turn the page 
Who Are You? 
Breaking Through, Be Amazed 
Be All You 

Might be lost through the fog, I hear the snow falling 
Can You Feel My Love? 
Its never gonna fade 

Nothing ever stays the same, you got to let it change 
I think it's how Love Grows
Never let it go

Perfect Storm

Be All You

the in-between

Ground Zero 
by David Husted 

When you find your answers can you tell me how? 
I’m still searching and I haven’t found 
It’s time to take a stand, say what you believe 
the un-named heroes gather on the streets 

You would speak your mind, but you don’t know how 
you would fan the fever but you don’t know how to climb 
crooked ladders toward a better day 
past the rising seas and that bitter sweet way home 

Ground Zero (never give up or give in) 
it’s time to say what you believe 
gather around your un-named heroes ; (my heroes) 
arm in arm we’ll take the streets 

When you find your answers can you tell me how 
I’m still searching and I haven’t found a way through. 
I’ll take the road beside you 
It’s time to take a stand; say what we believe 
with the un-named heroes gathering on the streets 
We’ll find our, Our Ground Zero 

Ground Zero (never give up or give in) 
it’s time to say what you believe 
gather around your un-named heroes ; (my heroes) 
arm in arm we’ll take the streets 

and when you survive the days 
and when you survive the nights 
thats when you’ll find ground zero 
thats when you’ll know ground zero 

Ground Zero (never give up or give in) 
it’s time to say what you believe 
gather around your un-named heroes ; (my heroes) 
arm in arm we’ll take the streets 

My BLOG:

How is it Going;   This song, "Ground Zero",  is the final song on my new album "Perfect Storm" released in Apr 18.  This whole package was created in a little over one years time and I enjoyed every step of the process along the way.   This particular song was arranged after I listened very carefully to music I currently like already out there in the world.  As I listened, I methodically picked apart the structure of some of my favorites (deep listening).   I then, very carefully, focused on some of the sound tones and effects I liked in certain songs selected.  I  attempted to emulate and construct some of the sounds via synth design techniques and a little bit of sampling.  I could go into a lot more detail but I will not bore you.  Again, the most important thing is the "song" itself; melodies, lyrics  and rhythms.   Enjoy the music friends and thank you for listening.

Thank You

Dave

Fifty Three Degrees
By David Husted
a link to the video: https://youtu.be/oAv-lnq8ngQ

When I look back at my eyes
They may be fifty three year old
They call it Grand Theft Auto
I call it racing down this road

I feel my heart beat
Keep it under control
The scent of rain sizzling on the street
It seems the steam rises up to greet me  

I hear the tick tock
I'm running out of time
I hear the gun shots
I may be losing my mind

Blue and red rise up behind me
Siren sings, that voice , that voice reminds me

And when I scream at the sky
It's the silence that hurts me
and when the needle pegs that line
Race past a love still burning

I hear the boots kick; crackling inside my head
These rattling bones hear your voice
Rise up behind me
Siren sings, that voice , that voice reminds me
 
BLOG:
The image above provides a visual representation of my song's structure.  The bright green strip across the middle of the image above is a very cool sounding synth pattern that travels the length of the song.  You can clearly hear its mesmerizing tones in the intro to the song.   This pattern became its backbone with the drum/bass, in red, a prominent second supporting structure.  The pattern never stops except for one small break in the middle. A sequence that does not change throughout the entirety of a song is dangerous but a challenge I love to work with.   
 
            I was able to accomplish this by slowly building the tension as the song progressed, adding various instruments  to dance with the backbone and various "sweetener" effects in yellow  to add dissonance and further play with the tension.  I especially like the addition of the guitar (in pink) to the chorus which used an amp pre-set called "Cheap Combo" that just worked for me. My vocals are shown in blue and mostly organically formed out of the rhythms and mood I was feeling emanating from the main chord structure and rhythms.   This song has a darkish atmosphere and a fair amount of edginess.   My vocals have more delay than usual because that's just what I was feeling when I wrote the lyrics.  
 
            I love to look back at my project after all the pain and joy of creation is over.  The image you see above is an end state and I promise you that the formation state was much uglier, full of wrong turns and plenty of dead ends.  The song you hear was cultivated out of the murky soup of my mind and all the particular content blowing through my skull at that particular moment.   With every turn I also make new musical discoveries that bring sparkle to the process and a never ending sense of wonder and delight to me.  Some of the names of my sweetener sounds make me chuckle; "Echo's ill factor", "Demon Choir" , "Ash Decay" and "Squawk Box" and I'll leave it to you to pick them out of the song as you listen to it. 

             This song was called "Sirens" as that is a frequent repeated phrase in the chorus.  However, I have discovered that about a million other artist also have a song named "Sirens"  Therefore, as of this very second of writing,  I have decided to rename the song "Fifty Three Degrees" just because I feel like it.  How is that for creative license.   
  
             Until next time; Happy Creating and Thanks for Listening!

more detail on the song production process below for those who care to dig deeper:

I happened to surf across an article about Richard Brautigan. I found the story mildly interesting. The article's author was writing about a recent biography that had come out about Brautigan.  The  picture he painted of the man did not seem flattering.  In fact, he made him sound like a real misogynistic, drunken asshole which I am sure he very well may have been.  However, what caught my eye in his write-up was a reference to Brautigan's book called "Trout Fishing in America".  

I recall chuckling at the way the article's author stated Brautigan used the phrase "trout fishing" or "trout stream" in ways that made the reader double-take. Some of the book's cultural popularity was misleadingly due to that title's use in the more conventional sense. However, Brautigan would personify the phrase "trout fishing" onto people or places or things throughout the book. This was un-conventional for the time and trippy to me. It created a sort of ear-worm of magic on me during my own song development process. It was a needed hit of hippie, beat generation, creative juice just in the nick of time. The trout stream which had been simmering for close to a year was dusted off, revised and finally completed.  

This song may be about my ongoing discontent with the state of our world. It may be about my deep conviction that we can and will do better. It may be about my general state of happiness despite the world we live in. It may be about trout fishing in America.  

Thank You for sharing a moment with me. I appreciate your friendship as I continue to cobble my musical creations together one trout fish at a time. 

Here's to you with much gratitude.

Check out a music video of Waves here!: https://youtu.be/NHIK5dOaW0U

Waves is about difficult life moments.  How can we ease the pain? There is a refrain during the course of the song where I repeat this in an almost silent plea.  The song captures the feeling of time moving at a different speed in these moments of sorrow and tenderness when the mind freezes.  A numbness infused with a fierce stillness and a fierce love.

Lyrics
Waves
by David Husted

My mind freezes
Despite this burning wind
Are you my temple?
Or am I grasping  at threads

Time's still ticking 
I feel it crawling on my skin
Stop pretending
You don’t feel this burning fire within

Over, Over
All those things you said
Feel Love's Horizon
Sweet Waves Crashing In

Greetings!,  As many of you know, I am a child of the 80's.  I have recently been enjoying a show called Stranger Things which is set in the 80s where much of the clothes, conversation and artifacts they present throughout the show keep me very entertained. Yes, I am easily amused. The soundtrack to the show is very well done; tip of the hat to the music supervisor for this series.  I especially love the vibe of the theme song and the very, very 80s era use of midi drums and synths.  I attempted to emulate that vibe and feel in my latest song called?  I am still deciding on a title.  It will be called Comatose or Shore It Up. If I remember correctly, I went with that distinctive 808 drum thump, that rubbery synth bass sound and a very liberal use of side-chaining just for the fun of it. I also provided heavy dosage of that classic saw tooth synth sound with added sweeping filters across the landscape.This song was a blast to make and it will be hitting the airwaves very soon.  Stay tuned and thanks for dropping by my music cave for a peak into my music creation world....
