Landon Austin & Matthew Parker - Cool (Matias Ruiz Remix) - From Official Remix Contest

"the cool kids" was actually created under interesting circumstances. While in the process of moving houses, Ben and I wrote, produced, mixed, and mastered this song all in two days from our manager's small bedroom studio in Georgia. It started as just a simple melody and a few guitar chords, but with a little imagination and a lot of hard work, it quickly transformed from a basic acoustic track into a chill summer beach vibe. The message itself deals with the reality of being popular and fitting in with those around us. In an age where there's so much peer pressure to be a part of "the cool kids," we wanted to remind listeners to just be themselves instead. The upbeat instrumental combined with the positive message makes this one a fun and unique summer anthem for all who listen. So go share it with your friends!! You’re awesome :)

LYRICS
Life gets complicated
When I try to find a place 
Where I fit in, woah
Keep up conversations
Seeing way too many faces
Not my friends
Not my friends

I don’t wanna be popular
I don’t wanna live in a world
Where I gotta fake every word
But my voice is left unheard

Oh I don’t think that I
Wanna fit in with the cool kids
They’re not worth my time, no
I don’t wanna think
That I gotta be somebody else
I think that I’ll be fine
Just being myself

Da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da
Just being myself

People think I’m crazy
When I sit inside my space
That I live in, yeah
And everything may seem
Like it’s so pretty but I hate 
The way it is
The way life is

I don’t wanna be popular
I don’t wanna live in a world
Where I gotta fake every word
But my voice is left unheard

Oh I don’t think that I
Wanna fit in with the cool kids
I’m not worth their time, no
I don’t wanna think
That I gotta be somebody else
I think that I’ll be fine
Just being myself

Da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da
Just being myself

I don’t wanna be popular
I don’t wanna live in a world
Where I gotta fake every word
But my voice is left unheard

Oh I don’t think that I
Wanna fit in with the cool kids
They’re not worth my time, no
I don’t wanna think
That I gotta be somebody else
I think that I’ll be fine
Just being myself

Da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da

Da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da
Just being myself

JSteph & Ben Lawrence - the cool kids

So my album came out today. It's called "Children of the Burning Heart." It's got 15 songs. You can find it on all streaming platforms. I'll probably be sharing a few songs from the album here on Soundcloud over the next few days because I feel like it'd be fun. :)

I feel like I'm finally starting to understand how short my life is in the grand scheme of things. That's what "Until Tomorrow" is all about. I hope you enjoy this ILLENIUM-style tune. <3

Miles To Go

there's only one King.

This song tells the story of Daniel 4 in the Old Testament. I wanted to give it a slightly epic, slightly chilling feel. It's a crazy story that I hope I've done some justice. :) I've loved getting to write these tunes after Bible stories- let me know if you guys want to hear more!

It's been interesting how much the Lord has shown me about arrogance and pride. It's poison to a human heart because in it, we can't see our need for God to satisfy us. Jesus lovingly leads His people out of pride and into submission to Himself- and that's where we're meant to be.

garden king

keep me from believing that same old lie

I was inspired by Romans chapter 7 for this tune. Paul says some startling things about the human heart there. What do we do when we love God and we still sin? Finally, he just says, "Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin."

This song is written with that posture. I still live in a broken world. Because of Adam's sin, I still have to fight the flesh every day. But the good news is that through the cross, I'm free from the guilt and the stain of sin. Jesus didn't only take my sin, but He gives me His righteousness, too. And when it feels like I'm stuck in the same old patterns of sin that have deceived people for so long, I can look to Him for strength and redemption.

So I hope you enjoy this song. Hope it's an encouragement to you today.

Music artist and producer
of EDM, Pop, and WhateveriFeelLikeMaking.

BIO:
You wouldn’t expect the sound you hear from Matthew Parker, a singer & producer who grew up in rural Michigan, USA. His unique blend of Urban, EDM, and Pop vibes is modern and refreshing, though still sentimental and nostalgic. Taking piano lessons as a kid, Matthew wasn’t really interested in music and hated to practice, but when he found he could create his own melodies and songs, he began to discover his passion for music. It started with jam sessions in the attic with his brothers, which turned into Matthew making songs by himself on the family computer at age 12. It was then that he discovered the magic of music production and was irreversibly hooked. Since then, with over 50 million streams across all platforms and no sign of stopping, Matthew Parker has clearly created a sound and sentiment that resonates with many people. Known for his knack for infusing bucketloads of emotion into his meticulously detailed productions, Matthew has not slowed down in his quest to dream up new aural masterpieces, releasing over 10 singles & remixes in 2020, all of which were very well received. Life is an adventure, and music should be too. Listen to Matthew Parker’s music to see life through the eyes of an adventurer.
