love the different sounds in different sections. All are really awesome. The piano phrase is outstanding

This is true musical journey. love this keys.. crazy notes. huge, deep imagination. awesome work, John.

Original song by Coral. A song about the illusion of a social ladder.

Cover art by Coral (inspired by Jean-Michel Basquiat)

Climbing a step you’re on your knees
You hold on a corpse you crush its skull
And you believe, you’re innocent

Holding your breath you compliment
The ones that you hate you lick their feet
And you believe, you’re innocent

You see them all rats so meaningless
The folk that you praised to gain their votes
And still you climb, your pride is high

All what you have what they don’t have
You stuff with some treat till you can’t eat
But still you climb, your pride is high

You know that your time is money worth
You rest on your slave who cleans your mess
And you believe, you’re satisfied

The prize you deserve is what you see
No nut for the ape who’s begging you
And you believe, you’re satisfied

The first time you meet you put a tag
No high school degree this dude is dull
And you believe, you reached a top

You act like you were the finest breed
Your god is the one and only one
And you believe you reached a top
And you believe

It seem like a crown it’s shinning gold
It suits to your head you’re feeling proud
Still you believe, you reached a top

(but) There ain’t any class or any mount
There ain’t any social ladder too
Still you believe, you are on top 
Still you believe…
(you’re innocent)

apologia (1989)

"I Liked Science Fiction More When It Was Only Fiction" It's a track from the FFA album "A Straight Line is an Infinite Circle"
https://famousforgottenartists.bandcamp.com/album/a-straight-line-is-an-infinite-circle

Be careful what we wish for, it could become reality. And maybe we don't like it anymore.

I Liked Science Fiction More When It Was Only Fiction

I've always quite liked the short version (https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/coffee-break), using it several times especially on FB to accompany a series of good-luck pictures when the new year arrived, and I was sorry that it only lasted 45 seconds. So I worked a bit on this update in these last weeks; to get the same sounds as the short track I also took out of the coffin the old Yamaha PSR 630 (born in 1997 but still in fair health), being especially interested in playing and hearing that awful piano sound again - but strings and woodwinds are no joke either!
With that set of chords it only took a few variations to have significant atmo changes that would justify a new piece; now that it is long enough, I commit it to the ether and oblivion.

A Romantic Conversation

Steps For Life

File Updated 11:35 GMT: New vocal parts added... was going to do a rap but ended up a hybrid backing and almost hook line... more lead vocal in too still soft enough for the idea i think


Piano in and vocal re softened

BPM 71

Lyrics

As Light were clean
Life is serene
As the light we've seen a dream
Serene and clean
Like now is seen
Scene to scene to scene to scene
Life the dream
Mind makes serene
Observer clean

New merged blue
Building light from true
'Boldest ambient
Ever ready sambo sound
Nightime comes to seed
Aurora musical feed
All access sips of soul
Underverse and all
Kinetic core of creed
Two timed souls turn to tease
Industry of tone
Insane makes sane from song
Two rhymed rolled rhythms be
Free for fine tuned to happy
Annoint the light
Universal right
Love is living loose
Nurtured selves we soothe
Drinks got thc
Eat me some cbd

As Light were clean
Life is serene
As the light we've seen a dream
Serene and clean
Like now is seen
Scene to scene to scene to scene
Life the dream
Mind makes serene
Observer clean


For possible collab

Idea is to alternate singing the lines referring to each of our artist names

Note: Lyrics are built on our artist names written down the side. For that reason sense is found in each line but possibly not so much in the lyrics as a whole. I'm cool with that...

The alternating vocals I think will work best in unison towards the end of phrases

Tempo of 71 BPM tapped out from NB Nakita first upload on SC so have a cool real random connection without any originality encroachment.
Love robbing tempos! I recommend not listening to the tune you are taking the tempo from if you can... It's clean as a whistle and a nice link is made anyways
