This is my remix of the beloved "Corridors of Time/Zeal theme" from the Chrono Trigger series.

Corridors of Time Remix

Horrible mix, but it's still 100 times better than I had 5 hours ago. Time to let it go... Lead vocals by Emvoice Keela.


Verse 1
Midnight’s passed, the city sleeps 
As I roam the streets alone 
On my own
Here’s a heart that's filled with grief 
And a soul that's turned to stone
Turned to stone

Chorus: 
I'm addicted to the night 
With a yearning always unabated
Plagued by my desires 
Drawn in and captivated

Verse 2: 
Walking on the path of darkness
Listen to the wind’s sweet mournful song
Sometimes I sing along
Rain reflects my heavy heart
Yet, my dear, it seems that I belong
Oh, how wrong!

Chorus: 
I'm a victim of the night 
With a hunger that cannot be sated 
Slave to my desires 
So tired and so frustrated

Bridge: 
A shadow in the darkness 
A ghost in the machine
Prisoner of my fate

Outro:
So come with me, my love 
And we'll dance in the moonlight 
And maybe, just maybe 
Everything will be OK

While the City Sleeps

Track for /s/songaweek, 2023 week 27 - theme is "Change" as we move away from Reddit to Squabbles.io. 

This was a bit rushed, but hopefully gets across the combination of anticipation, excitement and apprehension I think we all feel  in times of significant change. You can say the abrupt ending represents a lack of foresight about what will happen in the future. Or you can say I ran out of time and inspiration to finish it, your choice :)

Brave New World

This is the least effort I've ever expended on a song 😅

Never before have I written anything with so little effort and time. Every track I've written in my life, I've put my all into (within time constraints). At the very minimum I'll spend hours + loads of time tweaking details.

This, I spent a couple of hours on... It's what I get for having spent all week just chatting shit. I spent lots of time TALKING about writing music and spent little time actually writing. All I can do is own the terribleness... At least it's better than not having written a song???

2023-07-12 Song A Week - Simples!

This was supposed to be for songaweek Week 33 but that doesn't seem to be happening at the moment. Hopefully something like normal service will be resumed soon.

Anyway, this was inspired by a comment from a work colleague - for the avoidance of doubt, the music is entirely written and recorded by me (nominally human, maybe), NOT generated by AI. 

However, the voiceover is computer-generated, the words are AI-generated, and the cover image is AI art.

All the musical sounds (not percussion or FX) were generated using AAS Ultra Analog VA-3.

Entry for songaweek Week #52 2023 - not themed.

Very rushed mix for songaweek 2024 week #5 - theme is Carousel.

I used the Audiority Chorus Ensembler plugin to get the guitar sound, which emulates the Boss CE-1 pedal.

Synthetic vocals by Emvoice Jay. This one actually suits Jay's voice down to the ground.

[re-tagged this as a 'demo' as it really does need a bit more work..]

Lyrics:
-------

Painted faces on wooden ponies
Up and down they go
Pledges made by fairground phoneys
You can’t believe a word

Left wing striders and right wing bluster
On this roundabout of broken dreams
Where no-one wins

The cycle prevails
Where unity fails
We all slow down.

Carousel!
We go round and round and round
Carousel!
It goes round and round and round

Blue horses prance, the red ones follow
Round and around they go
Build a thing, tear it down, Build another
Watch the money go

The rhetoric swings
Our candy floss dreams
Melting away

Carousel!
They go round and round and round
Carousel!
We all go round and round and round

Ticket booths are selling hope today
One gives, the other takes away.

Carousel!
We go round and round and round
Carousel!
It goes round and round and round

round and round and round
round and round and round
round and round and round
round and round and round

red blue red blue red blue

Carousel
