Fifty Three Degrees

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

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!

Deep bow of gratitude to you for giving my music a listen, for liking, for commenting and/or for sharing when any given song resonates with you.  You help create a community that lifts music out of the nooks and crannies and allows it to be heard a little bit more than it otherwise might have been.  Thank You sincerely for that. Gratias tibi ago; Pax!

I love to create music.  It is really that simple.  

Dave

Electronic musician from Finland. I make tunes for your enjoyment.

Some bio:

I have been into music from young age, my parents played classical music in our home when I was child but I fell in love with synthesizer and game music. I remember recording Jazz Jackrabbit tunes from my computer speakers with microphone on an old c-cassette and listening that whenever I could.
Anyways I got into classical music and studied it quite a bit. I went to sing in boy choir and started to play the flute. This developed into me being really fond of singing and I started to pursue a path in that. I started to study classical singing with a teacher and finally got to study music on university level. I'm trained operatic tenor but I have had many bumps on that road. 
           Alas in really glad for that because finally, after lot of wrong turns and ups and downs I got into making electronic music. I'm really starting to feel this thing and finally getting to unleash my creativity is probably one of the best things that have ever happened on my life.
 I sincerely thank everybody that happens to listen my music, really makes life feel like worth something when you can begin to share what's inside your soul. 
Thank you!:)

There is so much talent and variety here, and most of the people are pretty cool too. I love being part of this community. Listening to your music and being heard in return is enough.

Still reading? OK I'm gonna muse a bit. It's hard to fully convey how much this forum has meant to me. There are people I've never met that feel very much like old friends -- and in a very real way they are.
If I follow someone I make every effort to listen to and support their efforts. It's certainly not a transactional relationship but I do tend to limit my follows to people who engage in mutual listening and engagement. If you listen and leave a comment I always try to listen to *your* music when responding! If you follow at random without any feedback I hope you get something out of that too... ; )
