While I Was Sleeping

Luftrum 20 audio demo by Doc Jon. All sounds except percussion from Luftrum 20. Some master bus compression and limiting but no other processing used.

Luftrum 20 is taking Hive away from its natural EDM comfort zone and sending it on a diametric journey with ambient pads, ethereal bright arpeggios, soaring leads, cinematic soundscapes, 80s inspired synth keys and analog berlin school sequences.

Back To Bird

Nowhere to go
Nowhere to be
I don’t want to live like that 
Got to stay home 
Not safe on the street
I just can’t go on like that 

You ask me ‘Where can we go?’ 
‘What can we do?’ 
No-one really seems to know
Just one thing 
Got to get out of this place 
I know where we’re heading for

Chorus
Come little darling take a trip with me 
Pack up all your bags and we’ll cross the sea 
Going to a place where the air’s still free 
Heading back to Bird just you and me 
Chillin’ all day gonna spend our time 
Walking on the beach and drinking wine 
Leave the rest of the world behind 
Going back to Bird where everything’s gonna be fine
Everything’s gonna be fine

It’s driving me mad
In isolation 
I don’t want to live like that 
Just want this to pass
Just want to move on 
I just can’t go on like that 

You ask me ‘When will it end?’ 
‘How long will it last?’ 
No-one really seems to know
Just one thing 
Got to get out of this place 
I know where we’re going to go 

Chorus

Introversion Extroversion

Video version
https://youtu.be/3KapNscU7l8

What started in one city in America has now spread across the world 
People exercising their right to protest in favour of ending discrimination and promoting equal rights 
But peaceful demonstration has now become targeted by those intent on violence and with the involvement of far-right groups there is now full blown rioting on the streets 

All the while the virus that was in decline was waiting for such an opportunity 
A new breeding ground of individuals to infect
Their hosts too intent on destroying one another to recognise the real threat within 
Spreading unhindered through an unsuspecting population we should now prepare for the worst 

Chorus 
 The people asking “Why?”
“How can it be this way?”
“What causes this behaviour?” 
“Is this what we deserve?”
I’ve nothing left to say 
This time no one’s going to save you
I can’t believe my eyes 
Society breaking down 
This shit’s gone supernova 
I’m sitting this one out 
I’m heading back to lockdown 
Don’t wake me ‘til it’s over
(maybe now’s the time to flick the switch and give this world a reboot)

Scientists now believe the virus has undergone a significant mutation 
And a new symptom has emerged; that of highly aggressive behaviour 
Those who become infected seem to lose any sense of self control and indiscriminately attack all those around them
Friends, neighbours and even members of their own families 

And where the virus spreads so the violence follows, from country to country around the world 
Our cities are in lockdown trying to contain this new outbreak with no-one allowed to enter or leave 
But as those who escape flee to the countryside 
We ask ourselves “Is this too little, too late?”

Chorus

We bring you breaking news concerning the sudden massive upsurge in case numbers of the last few days 
This is indeed due to the fact that the virus has crossed a previously unassailable transmission boundary, not to another species, but to reinfect the dead, causing them to reanimate 

Today the living officially became the minority species on the planet 
As the unstoppable hordes of the undead surge out from the cities we face the very real possibility of extinction 
We now stand together, previous rivalries forgotten, discrimination nowhere to be seen 
All united for one final stand, side by side, we are all human and together we are humanity 
As the last safe zones are overrun, I am left wondering “Why did it take something like this to make us see the error of our ways?
This is Doc Jon from the AI news network signing off

Chorus
