Happy October! It may be time for spooks and scares, but for me it's time for another song. This song is a little bit special. It marks my first song to have vocals in a long long time. I used vocaloid 3's IA for a few songs years ago, but now it's time for something new.

As I was writing this song, I was never happy with the melody instrumentation I had and I kept telling myself I could fix it as I continue working on the song. Spoiler alert, I never did. As I completed the song I listened back to the whole thing again and decided I just didn't like the instrumental. So... what to do?  I decided it would work better with a singer, but since I can't install my old copy of IA (via CD) I had to find something soon so I could release the song.

So here comes Natsuki Karin via Synthesizer V. I wanted to try this software before, and I must say, it really impressed me. The software runs pretty well and while it may not be as sophisticated as the vocaloid software, I found the sound bank for Karin to be incredibly well done right out of the box. Very little to no tweaking required to produce a good sounding voice. This, thankfully allowed me to write lyrics for a song originally without them in a... admittedly short amount of time as the 1st was literally a day away.

In any case, I ended up quite impressed and ended up making changes to the song to support the change to a singer. I once again learned how it's pretty cool that something you didn't like can change into something you do with just some quick thinking, easy to use tools, and a little extra love.

lyrics:

Verse 1
-----------------------------------------------
いつもに私を探す
watashi wa ...  itsumo ni watashi wo sagasu
I'm always looking for me

-----------------------------------------------
Chorus
-----------------------------------------------

世界闇に満ちているけど探し続ける
sekai yami ni michiteru, kedo sagashi tsuzukeru
The world is full of darkness, but I keep looking

世界が闇に満ちているけど光を探し続ける
sekai ga yami ni michiteru, kedo hikari wo sagashi tsuzukeru
The world is full of darkness, but I keep looking for the light

Verse 2
-----------------------------------------------
Always on the search, but never ending
常に探求し、しかし決して終わらない
tsuneni tankyū shi, shikashi kesshite owaranai

When will there be a finish.
いつになったらフィニッシュがあるのか
Itsu ni nattara finisshu ga aru no ka

Life is always moving and there is never time,
人生は常に動いていて、時間はありません
Jinsei wa tsuneni ugoite ite, jikan ga nai

but I always look for the light.
けど、私はいつも光を探しています
kedo, watashi wa itsumo hikari o sagashiteiru

いつもに私を探す
 itsumo ni watashi wo sagasu
I'm always looking for me

探し物きと近いい

I will find it 

見つける

もうすぐ、きっと
mou sugu, kitto
Soon, I'm sure

-----------------------------------------------
Chorus x2
-----------------------------------------------
世界闇に満ちているけど探し続ける
sekai yami ni michiteru, kedo sagashi tsuzukeru
The world is full of darkness, but I keep looking

世界が闇に満ちているけど光を探し続ける
sekai ga yami ni michi teru, kedo hikari wo sagashi tsuzukeru
The world is full of darkness, but I keep looking for the light

世界闇に満ちているけど探し続ける
sekai yami ni michiteru, kedo sagashi tsuzukeru
The world is full of darkness, but I keep looking

世界が闇に満ちているけど光を探し続ける
sekai ga yami ni michi teru, kedo hikari wo sagashi tsuzukeru

This set will forever hold a special place in my heart. My SF family that introduced me to vinyl and DJ skool surrounded me in the most intimate setting possible.

Without them I would have never discovered the profound impact spiritually and creatively that DJing has had on my life. I hope I made them proud.
