Birds Of A Feather

(If you didn't give yesterday's Interbay track, "Discontinuity", a listen--go and do that now.  It's worthy of your attention--and this song will still be here when you get back.  Thanks! pg)

"Now I dream of you...passing by..."  

This track is the 398th song posted in the Interbay music project since mid-January 2023.  (This is the 258th straight day of posting tracks here on SoundCloud and before that, 140 tracks--with videos--were posted on Facebook.)  And this is the first time that I think I've created something truly distinctly original.  I don't know of anything else that sounds like this.  

Granted, I always say that no matter what I'm trying to sound like, it always sounds like Interbay more than anything else--but when I use the tag "mutant pop" to describe nearly every Interbay song...in THIS case, I can't think of a closer description.  

Go ahead, hit play...and read along as I'll try to catalog the combination of elements that I'm not sure has ever come together like this before.  

You've got singing on this track.  Lots of it.  While all Interbay tracks posted here to SoundCloud, there will be a vocal element--but often, it is in the form of dialogue or spoken word.  Occasionally, there's some singing--but this track is silly with it.  

You've got a female vocal line--very ethereal and dreamy (reminds me a bit of the slept on Interbay track "Selfishly"--go check that one out, it is deep in the back catalog.)  You also have a male vocal line with a more complete narrative, singing about a girl that he seems to both admire and, perhaps, feel intimidated by...at the same time that he doesn't worry about saying something negative about that same girl.  The interplay between the two creates the central tension in the song.  But then there's a bunch of wordless vocal adlibs...soaring into space and surrounding the entwined narrative elements.  

The first instrumental element you'll hear sounds like a synth sound you might have heard from a pop trance song of the late 90s early 00s, but it's actually a piano...the hammers hitting strings without the cabinet resonance.  It sometimes gets buried by other sounds, but it is, I think, always there throughout the song.  Add to that an insistent and occasionally relentless drum pattern-- that can best be described as "rest-kick-kick-kick" (though there actually is a rimshot on the 1, it blends in with the first note from the piano so you might not notice it.)  And don't forget some crazy hi-hats propelling everything forward.  

This track has guitars.  You've got an almost Spanish style guitar playing minor arpeggios, you've got another guitar playing palm muted plucks, and still a third guitar--an acoustic playing rather punk-like down struck chords.  

The bass has a nice bounce that counterplays with the guitars well.  There's some synths, subtle and grainy, a few times in the track...

What else?  Oh...you've got big 80s orchestra hits (what?) and something that sounds like a duck. (WHAT???)  

If this isn't mutant pop, I don't know what is.  (Otherwise, I'd have to come up with a word that means "Electronic indie trance pop 80s 90s spanish rock midtempo house jangle alternative rave up."  I'm pretty good with words, but I'm not THAT good.  

So, if you're up for an adventure into the world of mutant pop, the world of Interbay...then you'll get into "Passing By" in a big way!  

...and, as always, it would help if you listened, liked, reposted, shared, added to a playlist, left a comment, sent a message...but MOST IMPORTANTLY, give this page a follow as new tracks are being posted EVERY SINGLE DAY (258 days straight so far!)  

...this also means there is a DEEP back catalog for you to explore at your convenience.  There's some really good stuff in there that you'd like, I'm sure!

"Passing By" *SoundCloud Exclusive*

“Our daughter said the most fascinating sentence for turning the room light off, which was “turn the dark on”. I absolutely loved this perspective and had to include the line as a lyric; this spark inspired the song and its direction. Echoing those late night wonderings when the mind is overactive I use insomnia as an acronym in the chorus to ponder if people are asleep in life and need to be inspired to wake up and really live? My hope in both the music and lyrics is to capture the restlessness, fatigue and high energy of insomnia.”  

turn on the dark again. Insomnia. 

I’m here, yeah, turn on the dark again 
Open red lightning eyes, coffee adrenaline 
Maybe I can catch some peace tonight?
If I don’t sleep before I wake then insanity is coming, right?
I never sleep or maybe need inspirational awakenings? 

Insomnia 
Insomnia
I never sleep or maybe need inspirational awakenings? 

Shut eyes gone just dusty chunky robot eyes 
I am meant to sleep by design, I’m not doing fine 
No way, no way
I don’t want to process the day anymore
I want to possess the night and see my dreams 
I never sleep or maybe need inspirational awakenings? 

Can I sleep tonight? 
Twinkle twinkle little star how I wonder what you are 

(Insomnia, Insomnia)

Can I sleep tonight?

This is my attempt at performing this song in a single take with just me and my guitar (Taylor 114 ce)
Also to compare and contrast, here’s a  link to a more polished full band version of this song that I recorded with the help of the Eclectic Collective

Many thanks to SoundCloud musician Michele Ansani  https://on.soundcloud.com/A24Cig19AVNqQmCk8 who's lyrics inspired me to write this song and collaborated with me to help bring this song to life.

Lyrics
When I was thirteen I picked up my first guitar
it was my mother's, it only had one nylon string 
I tried to play it like a rock star
I learned to play the Coca-Cola jingle
So I could teach the world to sing
When I was fourteen, I put on six new strings
I learned to play Beatles, I learned a Bob Dylan song
I sounded out of tune but I tried to carry on
At fifteen I wrote my first original tune 
So bad it sounded like it might have been written by a baboon
When I was sixteen, I got a new guitar for my birthday
The metal strings sawed through my fingers but I continued to play
And as the calluses formed and every day I learned a brand new chord
I was obsessed with that guitar and I never grew bored.
I wrote songs every day and most of them were a mess
But I believed that through hard work, I could achieve success
Malcom Gladwell wrote a book that said it takes ten thousand hours
To become and expert at your craft
And now all it takes is two commands and an enter
And in two minutes you have ten versions of the same damn new song,
You just have to choose the type
folk, rock, rap, pop, metal, jazz, trap or blues.
You don't even need to write the lyrics, 
your push a few buttons let the AI choose.
And people will think your songs are great 
even though you didn’t write or play a single note.
When I was 20, I did my first concert, it was time
it occurred in a village square
there were four cats all friends of mine
I was still using the plectrum and sometimes I got the chords wrong
at thirty I finally wrote what I thought was a decent song
It had a very well thought out structure and a catchy vibe and beat 
It was overly verbose but when I played it people tapped their feet
In my forties I stopped wasting my time
Work was more fun I was doing just fine
I had a steady paycheck that could feed me 
And the record companies didn’t need me
In my fifties once again my musical juices started flowing
I bought the necessary equipment I was eager to get going
I recorded all my strumming and saved it onto my PC
The internet and technology were advancing rapidly
I took those special songs I’d written of which I was most proud
Posted them Instagram, You Tube, Tik Tok and SoundCloud
I asked myself if a tree falls in the forest and no one’s around
Does it make a sound?
But now all it takes is two commands and an enter
And in two minutes you have ten versions of the same damn new song,
You just have to choose the type
folk, rock, rap, pop, metal, jazz, trap or blues.
You don't even need to write the lyrics, 
your push a few buttons let the AI choose.
And people will like your songs even though you didn’t write or play a single note.

AI Sucks Acoustic Live Version

Through fire and shadows I made my way
A heart of stone but it starts to fray
The night is calling it knows my name
A dance with darkness a deadly game
Through fire and shadows I’ll rise again
A broken soul but I’ll never bend
The flames surround me they light my fight
Through fire and shadows I claim the night

Through fire and shadows
