Hee. Its a good thing. EB doing Devo tunes!

DEVO

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

Jerkin' Back 'n' Forth (Inside my Shoe Version) (Devo Cover)

My all-synth version of the 1977 single by one of music's genuine trailblazers. He had a job. He wore a hat. He brought home the bacon. Nobody knew he was a Mongoloid.

Mongoloid (18-21 Nondisjunction Version) (Devo cover)

My all-synth version of Devo's 1981 track.

Today what does it take to do the super thing?
I'll tell you what it takes: a very simple thing
Iron nerves like the pilot of a jumbo jet
Or a girl on the go who hasn't got there yet

Magnetic trumpets blowing, synthetic saxophone
The evidence kept growing from below
Hidden motivations buried in the past
Still gives us strength for the super thing

The Super Thing (Blazar Version) (Devo cover)

My all-synth version of the 1981 hit. The guy in the picture is actually pretty cool, he's John Bardeen, one of the few people to have got two Nobel Prizes. He got them for the transistor (you're using millions of them right now) and superconductivity.

We're through being cool
Eliminate the ninnies and the twits
Going to bang some heads
Going to beat some butts
Time to show those evil spuds what's what
If you live in a small town
You might meet a dozen or two
Young alien types who step out
And dare to declare
Spank the pank who try to drive you nuts
Time to clean some house
Be a man or a mouse
Waste those who make it tough to get around
If you live in a big place
Many factions underground
Chase down mister hinky dink
So no trace can be found
Put the tape on erase
Rearrange a face
We always liked Picasso anyway
Mash 'em

Through Being Cool (Type II Superconductor Version) (DEVO cover)

My all-synth version of the 1980 classic.

Crack that whip
Give the past the slip
Step on a crack
Break your momma's back
When a problem comes along
You must whip it
Before the cream sits out too long
You must whip it
When something's going wrong
You must whip it

Now whip it
Into shape
Shape it up
Get straight
Go forward
Move ahead
Try to detect it
It's not too late
To whip it
Whip it good

When a good time turns around
You must whip it
You will never live it down
Unless you whip it
No one gets away
Until they whip it

I say whip it
Whip it good
I say whip it
Whip it good

Crack that whip
Give the past the slip
Step on a crack
Break your momma's back
When a problem comes along
You must whip it
Before the cream sits out too long
You must whip it
When something's going wrong
You must whip it

Now whip it
Into shape
Shape it up
Get straight
Go forward
Move ahead
Try to detect it
It's not too late
To whip it
Into shape
Shape it up
Get straight
Go forward
Move ahead
Try to detect it
It's not too late
To whip it
Whip it good

Whip It (Sonic Boom Version) (DEVO cover)

My all-synth version of the 1982 hit.

Everybody it's a good thing
Everybody wants a good thing
Everybody ain't it true that
Everybody's looking for the same thing
Ain't it true there's just no doubt
There's some things that you can't do without
And that's good
Ain't it true as the sun that shines
You got yours and you got mine
And that's good
Everybody just like you it's true
Everybody wants a good thing too
Everybody it's a good thing
Everybody wants a good thing
Everybody ain't it true that
Everybody's looking for the same thing
Ain't it true there's room for doubt
Maybe some things that you can do without
And that's good
Everybody just like you it's true
Everybody wants a good thing too
Now let's have a great big hand
For everybody who can understand
Life's a bee without a buzz
It's going great till you get stung
And let us not forget to toast
Everyone who might have missed the boat
And to everybody else who waits
Until the next one sails in again
Everybody it's a good thing
Ain't it true it's a monumental good thing

That’s Good (Doughnut Version) (Devo cover)

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!

Souvenir - OMD Cover

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