My 100% synth version of the 1972 hit

Didn't know what time it was, the lights were low
I leaned back on my radio
Some cat was layin' down some rock 'n' roll
"Lotta soul," he said

Then the loud sound did seem to fade
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase
That wasn't no DJ, that was hazy cosmic jive

There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

I had to phone someone, so I picked on you
Hey, that's far out, so you heard him too
Switch on the TV
We may pick him up on channel two

Look out your window, I can see his light
If we can sparkle, he may land tonight
Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright

There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

Starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
He told me
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

Starman (Chandrasekhar version) (David Bowie cover)

heyo, this is hopefully the last time I ever touch my track Heart Attack, which I first posted alllllll the way back in April of 2017. The second version was released on Feb 14 2019 and now, 5 years later, here we are!

Heart Attack III was made in UltraBox, a modification of BeepBox. It was first started in 2022 and only finalized a few days before upload. Ultrabox (and BeepBox) are browser-based music programs and so if you click through this link (pastelink.net/644j1vmo) you can find the source music file and poke around to your heart's content.

The album art was made in Aseprite (pixel art portion) and paint .NET (adding the hospital jpeg in the background), and visuals were made in corrscope (github.com/corrscope/corrscope) if you wish to view the YouTube version!

Liquid Evolution (2024) Anthology CD2 Track 16

I decided to make a track using only the free LABS instruments from SpitfireAudio - so I picked the classic "Souvenir" by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark and made my own cover version. Enjoy!
I used the following LABS instruments:
- Scary Strings
- Strings
- Strings 2
- Amp Cello Quartet
- Choir
- Dulcimer
- Granular piano
- Chiffons piano
- Moon guitar
- Hand bells
plus a few percussion extras from Garageband!

I make obnoxious synth covers of previously fine songs. All done with Korg Gadget.
