Licht

It's okay
If you fail me
Everyone else
Does it too
And I know
That you're not trying to
But I expect it
From you

I'm the type
Of stupid
That let's these things
Happen to me
Maybe it's genetic
Or being raised
In a fucked up family
Maybe the friend
Who became bullies
The ones who still
Torment me
Because they're everywhere
Nature of society

I don't really
Wanna die
And I don't like
Being alone
But I do much better
When I never leave my home
It's not that I'm scared
Disappointed,  more the word
Because,  God knows
How hard I've tried
But your world
Is just too absurd

So it's okay
If you fail me
Because you already did
So many times
Before I met you
But i still
Let you in



It's Only Me

I was at a talk by the great animator Yuri Norstein many years ago and he talked about using the light from factories to read by when his family had no domestic electricity at nighttime.

The original idea behind the Bad Synth project was to improvise without any direction, record, and close the track without overdubs or heavy editing. Over time, though, those guidelines revealed their limits, since mixing and finalizing can be equally - and highly - creative stages in their own right. 

For this track I’m going a bit back to the roots: it was recorded in full improvisation and finalized in GarageBand, adjusting only the stereo image, EQ and loudness. 

Feel free to share it and pass it around — that matters to me. Thanks for listening, in the meantime.
