Alternate title:  "The Mecha Is Coming Online"

This track is the first of at least two tracks regarding a future with gigantic robots.  (The follow up will likely post at some point on the summer trip.)  

Like "Unprepared", this is less of a song than a "sound play"--dialogue and sfx over a musical underpinning.  There are recognizable song structure elements, but I couldn't point to a proper verse/chorus construct in it.  

Some people are into this sort of thing--I certainly am (Q.E.D.)  

It's got a bit of a crunch to it--and the "cyberjazz" tag is not just a troll, there is, I think, a case to be made for that (at least in parts.)  

This is a drum-heavy midtempo cyber stomp.  Hope you like it (and if you do, check out more tracks on my page--you might find more you'll like!  And, as always, a follow gets a follow back.)

This track is not yet mastered.. it may be a bit quiet... will do another mix before this becomes the final version.  This song will complete my album due for release on 22nd Sept (This year!) 🤪

Sometimes I feel nobody
But a stand-in for everybody
An overachiever’s make-believer’s mind
But in truth I’m dying, dying
To be good enough for you

You know my trophies
The prizes they bring
They don’t win me love
They don’t mean a thing
Those medals will just turn to rust
What matters is I'm good enough

Not good enough for you
I can feel it's true
Got the world in my hands
But I'm losing you
Oh I'm shinning bright
But it's all out of view

Not good enough for you
What more can I do

Love me when I am only
Too old and just sad and lonely
An overachiever’s make-believer’s mind
But in truth I’m dying, dying
To be good enough for you

No matter if my world is falling down
My world is falling down
My world is falling down

You know my trophies
The prizes they bring
They don’t win me love
They don’t mean a thing
Those medals will just turn to rust
What matters is I'm good enough

Not good enough for you
I can feel it's true
Got the world in my hands
But I'm losing you
Oh I'm shinning bright
But it's all out of view

Not good enough for you
What more can I do

An overachiever’s make-believer’s mind
But in truth I’m dying, dying
To be good enough for you

Good Enough For You

I do love it when your brain just locks into an idea and it feels effortless to create something.  

I also like it when MY brain does that, too!  And that's what happened with "Quibble"--the latest Interbay track to drop exclusively here on SoundCloud.    

At 114bpm, it grooves instead of sprints.  The palette of sound colors is limited to just a few and the grind of repetition is a feature on this track, not a bug.  There is progression and there is acceleration, as the energy level of the song does built throughout the tracks length.  

And the lyrics construct a narrative that is about storytelling techniques and escaping a seemingly inevitable fate--"the magic of quibbles."  That sure feels like a worthy topic to make an Interbay song about!  

Is there at least a little bit of Rufus Du Sol influence here?  I think so.  Your mileage may vary, of course.  

"Keep your eyes out for those sly quibbles."  

Heading into the weekend, this slightly dark but still worthy of an enthusiastic dance track feels perfectly timed.  Hopefully you'll give this one a listen, a like, a repost and share.  Add it to a groovy dance playlist.  Leave a comment.  

Most of all, please give this page a follow.  If you'll look, there's nearly 500 original tracks in the back catalog of Interbay here--and all of these have been posted one per day for nearly 500 consecutive days.  That means, so far, every day brings a new surprise present for you to open up and check out--of course, it's always the same...a new Interbay track...but, those tracks sure aren't going to sound the same as each other!  

Worth it?  I think it is...though some may quibble with that admittedly biased opinion.

You should make your own decision.  To do that, you need to listen...and you should follow!
