Why is it hard
To say no more
When you’re not satisfied
When did you try to feel again, anyway?

And when we can radiate this thunder
How can we pair off our love?

Are we electric now?
Are we electric now?
Are we electric now?
Are we electric now?

The sound of words is like light in the dark because
you shine so bright

I’m beneath the stars that light you
All the ways

And when we can radiate this thunder
How can we pair off our love?

Are we electric now?
Are we electric now?
Are we electric now?
Are we electric now?

I want to be the right way
You want to be the right way
We want to be the right way
Baby I can’t take it no more
We want to be the right way
We want to be the right way
We want to feel the right way
I can’t face another love again

Are we electric now?
Are we electric now?
Are we electric now?
Are we electric now?

This is the opening track to my upcoming album "Tales of My Universe". In an era where music often drowns in electronic beats and synthesised sounds, "My Story" is a refreshing return to authentic musicality, hoping to grab the listener's attention and set the tone for what is sure to be an emotive journey.

The core of the song is built around a gentle acoustic guitar, which provides a raw backdrop. The silky saxophone's sultry tones complement this, giving the song more depth.

Lyrics:

Here’s my story let’s begin
It starts being lost, then love jumps in
Then all I do is lose it all again

In a world that's spinning fast
I tried to grip, to make it last
Then shadows came, and my dreams went away

This is my story
I hope it's [not boring] [a warning]
These are the tales of my universe

Once Upon
Once Upon a Time

This is my story
I hope it's [transforming] [informing]
Because with time you just can't reverse

My Story

Diving into the deep emotional reservoir of Neev's original "Seawall," I've aimed to create a remix that respects the original's introspective beauty and introduces a refreshing sonic palette. The sensual sax solos that weave throughout the track embody the song's raw, passionate core, amplifying the lyrics' poignant vulnerability. Every fill feels like a gentle whisper, echoing the sentiments of trying to stay positive amidst internal chaos.

The laid-back drums serve as the heartbeat of the remix, providing a consistent, grounding force against the tidal wave of emotions in the lyrics. Their subtle rhythms induce a meditative trance, urging listeners to reflect deeply.

But it's the driving bass line that acts as the track's backbone. It propels the song forward, emphasising the lyrical narrative of relentless motion, even when faced with challenges. The bass line's energy mirrors the sentiments of "I can't hide but I can run," reminding listeners of the inevitability of confronting life's Seawalls and the power of facing them head-on.

In crafting this chilled remix for the competition on repost exchange https://soundcloud.com/re-ex, I wanted to offer listeners an intimate journey — one where Neev's words resonate profoundly, amplified by a rich and textured soundscape. This remix is more than just a reinterpretation; it's a heartfelt homage and a fresh perspective on a profoundly moving original.

I hope you enjoy listening.

Neev Seawall - Sax Version [Re-Ex Remix Competition]

cardigan - Ella's version

"Paris" is a striking blend of '80s retro synths and expressive sax, creating a familiar and pioneering sound. Experience the energetic pulse of an '80s dance floor intertwined with the refined allure of a jazz club – this is the track's heartbeat.

The lyrics weave a compelling narrative, exploring the intersection of Paris' timeless charm with the moral complexities of the good samaritan law. It delves into the nuances of shyness, shame, and the journey to self-discovery, striking a chord with anyone who's ever felt like an outsider or wrestled with the decision to stand up for what's right.

How would you feel, in Paris? Are you the kind of person to do nothing?

Lyrics:

Glass bottle on the trail
And what do we owe
When It turned to ice in front of me
Some help, and some watch
If not you, then who will make the difference

How would you feel
How would you feel
In Paris, embarrassed

And it occurs to me
How brave of you capture this memory
Step away from feeling, love

How would you feel
How would you feel
In Paris, embarrassed

I'm lonely in this place
Just for a little while
And I can't believe you came for me
You're helping me, have faith in me

How would you feel
How would you feel
In Paris, embarrassed

How would you feel
How would you feel
In Paris, embarrassed

"Silence" is the 2nd track from Crash Landed's "Paris" EP. The song is about finding calm after busy social times, letting go of society's expectations, and focusing on what really matters. Imagery in the lyrics like fading laughter and empty glasses shows how short-lived and shallow party joy can be.

Lyrics:

Verse 1
Sounds recede from laughter's height,
Fragments glisten in moonlight.
Stale perfume, the faintest trace,
In this silent after-chase.

Pre-Chorus
Champagne glasses, empty and strewn,
That reflects the ghostly moon. 

Chorus
I can’t wait to reach inside,
Searching for the keys you hide,
When all is lost you might just find
Oh, empty space.
Freedom from the overjoyed,
No more masks, no more noise. 
I find peace, I find my pace,
In the solace of empty space.

Verse 2
A million lights, a thousand sounds,
The crowded room, now fully drowned.
Remnants of the chaos past,
Now lost it seems in tranquil vast.

Bridge
Dawn's arrival, I breathe in deep,
Secrets in the silence, I keep.
Party's end, a saving grace, 
In the allure of empty space.

Silence

Lyrics

We would dive in deep
A lot of dreams, dive in deep
Like lovers sleep
In lavender

Ooh, I know where you rest
Ooh, there's no way back

Burn for burn, justice served
Wound for wound, you haven't seen the last of me yet
Bruise for bruise, nobody has

Burn for burn, justice served
Wound for wound, you haven't seen the last of me yet
Bruise for bruise, nobody has

How did I win
I never saved, anything
For the way back, and you did

Ooh, I know where you rest
Ooh, there's no way back

Burn for burn, justice served
Wound for wound, you haven't seen the last of me yet
Bruise for bruise, no-body has

Burn for burn, justice served
Wound for wound, you haven't seen the last of me yet
Bruise for bruise, no-body has

Cover of Nemo's "The Code" (lower key, piano backing)

Welcome to the show, let everybody know
I'm done playing the game, I'll break out of the chains
You better buckle up, I'll pour another cup
This is my Boheme, so drink it up, my friend

This story is my truth
I, I went to Hell and back
To find myself on track
I broke the code, whoa-oh-oh
Like ammonites
I just gave it some time
Now I found paradise
I broke the code, whoa-oh-oh
