Too Many Faces

All the way back on August 19, 2024, the Interbay track that was posted on that day was a DJ Icey meets Josh Wink meets Nitzer Ebb meets Faith No More sort of thing that I called "Enthusiasm."  I mentioned in the description for that...that it wasn't the track I thought I was making.  

The track I thought I was making had a temporary project title of "Lottery."  (No, I have no idea why at this point...)  After spending too much frustrating time on what I thought "Lottery" was going to be, I realized that I really had two very different tracks that were fighting each other.  So, I took half of the track and that became "Enthusiasm"...while the other half of the track is what today's track is, "Discontinuity."  

(I dare you to go back, listen to "Enthusiasm," and then come back here and tell me if you can find ANY similarity between these two Interbay tracks.  I made them and I can't!)  

So, what is "Discontinuity", then (if "Enthusiasm" was acid breaks big beat with rock samples)?  I'd say that it is...Robot Voiced New Romantic synthwave tech house with touches of electronic body music...  (Which...as usual...isn't a thing.  Except when it is...for Interbay.)  

It starts out with some Moroder-bass that completely reminds me of "Quiet Life" by Japan, "Planet Earth" by Duran Duran and even "Angel Eyes" (single mix) by Roxy Music.  (And yes, as a DJ, I HAVE mixed all three of those songs together at some point.)  There is some rather precious poetry (of sorts) being read through a very robotic filter--those are your vocals.  The rest of the instrumentation verges on Doctor Who sounds, Numan-y distorted lower sounds, grinding bass, echoed bells and vibraphones.  

Is there a meaning to the title "Discontinuity"?  If you worked hard to decipher all of the words through the obscuring filters...does it signify anything important or personally significant?  Are these even questions that anyone other than myself even think of asking? 

I'll have to check, but it feels like this might be the first Interbay song that both fades in and fades out.  Maybe?  

It's also about half the length of both "Quasars" or "XL5"--so, you can get your daily dose of Interbay in half the time!  

As always--thank you for paying attention to this crazy Interbay adventure.  More music to come, in various styles--as I continue to upload brand new tracks EVERY SINGLE DAY (so far!)    

Even more thanks to anyone who listens...who likes...who shares...who reposts...who comments...who adds this to their playlist...and the most thanks possible to those who follow this page!
