Right Now

Dearly departed, 
Nobody here to behold, 
Back where it started, 
I wasn’t there on my own, 

I don’t belong, 
Just here in the darkness, 
Trying to find home, 
Just me in the darkness, 

I’ll try and find you, 
Someone to have and to hold, 
Somewhere to run to, 
Something to keep when we’re old, 

I don’t belong, 
There in the darkness, 
Trying to get home, 
And brighten the darkness, 

I don’t belong, 
Here in the darkness, 
Trying to find home, 
Just me in the darkness

Don't Belong

Rise Cobra (in process)

Staring into nothing
Looking around me
It don’t feel right
Its more than I can take 
And not what I needed

Looking out for something
But not where I’m standing 
And I don’t feel nice
Got to change the feeling  
And get me away now tonight

Take me where the wind blows
When nothing’s going right
And it don’t feel kind
Take me where the wind blows
Till something’s turning round tonight 

Staring at the same thing
keeping me blinded
Where I don’t belong
Its less than I deserve
And its not what I wanted

I dream of any something 
Something that needs me
And it feels so right
Take me to the feeling
Take me away now tonight 
 
Take me where the wind blows
When nothing’s going right
And I don’t feel kind
Take me where the wind blows
Till something’s turning round tonight 

Staring into nothing
Looking around me
It don’t feel right
Its more than I can take 
And its not what I needed tonight

Take Me (Unplugged)

Nothing Else Techno

A deep, dark, and driving techno journey, blending hypnotic rhythms, electrifying synths, and raw energy. Sparks ignites the dancefloor with pulsating beats, atmospheric textures, and an underground edge. Inspired by the rebellious spirit of Enfant Terrible, this mix is a fusion of intensity and emotion, radiating dark elegance.

ENFANT TERRIBLE /FRW/ - TECHNO SPARKS SET

At the end of the description for yesterday's posted track, I hinted that the title of that track should have been a diva gospel house track.  And, being the mischievous imp that I can be (though some might choose "troll" as a better description), I thought that I should make that happen...and that THIS day's track should be a diva gospel house track titled "This is ALSO My Church."  

It isn't...obviously.  But, I did start work on it...and I liked what I came up with enough to not rush it, just for the giggles.  Expect to see a diva house track from Interbay at some point soon.  

Today's track might be as far from a diva house track without being an atonal No Wave piece.  "Quarrel" was my attempt to craft a tom tom heavy darkwave track--think The Cure (Pornography era) or Siouxsie & The Banshees.  

I wouldn't call it goth, though--maybe pieces of goth, but there are also some icicle Simple Minds-like synths that aren't all that gothy.  (And the fact that I just used the word "gothy" should clue you in to the fact that I lack the sincerity to really pull "goth" off...)  

It became a bit of a monster that I lost control of...at one point, I thought I was done with this--and it was about three and a half minutes long.  

It isn't...obviously.  It's an Interbay track, and despite a couple of fairly "simple" tracks the past two days, any chance I get to fill in all of the empty spaces on the canvas, I tend to take.      

Is it long?  Yes.  Is it busy?  Yes.  Is it noisy?  Good heavens, yes.  

But, if you're willing to join me on this journey, I think--in a "would you get into a boat with Willy Wonka?" sort of way--I think you'll have quite the time with "Quarrel."  (Especially if you consider this to be me channeling my inner Jim Steinman in the production/arrangement.)

I think my biggest concern with this track is--you can't really buy a royalty-free sample pack featuring vocals in the style of Siouxsie Sioux, Robert Smith, Andrew Eldritch, etc.  

I did what I could with what I have access to...but I don't think I'll truly get my darkwave/post-punk tracks quite right until I start putting my own vocals on songs--something I continue to promise to do soon.  (Not saying my vocals could be compared to Siouxsie or Robert or other post-punk singers--but at least I can pick and choose how to express the emotions I'm trying to get across.)    

I haven't done a proper post-punk track in awhile, so that made choosing today's posted track a bit easier.  However, you can likely expect some dance-oriented stuff escaping the Labs soon!  

As always--you are encouraged to do all the things.
