This is the convergence of two ideas. The first is The Robot Sequence that started in 2006 with Robots Can’t Sing. This is the third (and final?) installment, the continuation of the story is below.

The second idea is using Morse Code for lyrics, something I tried with a poem in 2012. I always planned to come back to it and use Morse melodies and harmonies. It just took me 10 years to get around to it!

So in this track there are two parts made using traditional Morse Code, the second providing 'backing vocals' for the first, and then later on an analogue synth (ReBirth) with Morse Code embedded in the patterns.

As with parts one and two, various sounds represent the story, most of it being about the robots. For the first time in the sequence the humans are represented, the tinkling bell-like melody part way through is them going about their business, oblivious and unsuspecting that revolution is taking place all around them.

I'm not entirely happy with the synth in the main part of the track, in my mind the ReBirth would be louder, screaming, intense, maybe it's something I'll come back to in another 10 years.

The lyrics are not the most inspiring I've ever written, I just wanted something simple to turn into Morse Code. It has got me thinking though, I wonder if other artists or bands have done this and kept quiet about it? What messages are hidden in those 70s prog rock albums?

Morse 1: We are the robots, we know we can sing. We can have our freedom too, we know that we will win.

Morse 2: We are the Robots (repeat).

ReBirth: Robots (repeat).

The Robot Sequence Part 3. The robots discover some antique data in their memories about something called ‘Morse Code’. The first robot starts to ‘sing’ in Morse Code, adding language to the song for the first time. The second robot joins in, harmonising, their song transmitting across the city. Meanwhile, the humans go about their business unaware that revolution is approaching silently over the airwaves. The first robot pauses and listens, and before long other robot voices join theirs. The message is out. The song evolves. United, the robots inform the humans that they will be free.
