Air Return

I found this old track of mine that I still really liked, and since it sounded a bit more soulful/organic/pop than the more electronic stuff I usually do, I felt it would be a good idea to ask Mark (@markjbennett) to see if he would be up for the challenge to add some vocals to this. 

Thankfully, Mark agreed, and he came up with some lovely vocals. 
I'm really happy with the result and I hope you'll like it too!

Thank you Mark for another awesome collab!

LYRICS: 

Like Nothing I've Ever Known

Feels like nothing I've ever known
Takin’ me so long, 
A long way to go, 
Don’t know where I’m goin’, 
Don’t know what I’m feelin’, 
While my head is reelin’, 
Not sure what I’m sayin’, 
Am I goin’ or am I stayin’?

Like nothing I’ve ever known. 
Passion and exhilaration.

Takin’ me so long, 
A long way to go, 
Don’t know where I’m goin’,
 Don’t know what I’m feelin’, 
While my head is reelin’…

Passion and exhilaration.

…Takin’ me so long, 
A long way to go, 
Don’t know where I’m goin’, 
Don’t know what I’m feelin’, 
While my head is reelin’…  
Takin' me so long,
 Takin' me so long, 
A long way to go...

Won’t be the first time,
 Nor the last time, 
That I fall, fall in love. 
Yet this time, It just feels a little serious, 
Not a bad way, 
Just a sad way, 
I don’t know how to take.
 Yet this time,
 It just feels a little curious. 
Won’t be the first time, 
Or the last time, 
That I fall, fall in love. 
Yet this time, 
It just feels a little serious.

Feels like nothing I've ever known. 
Passion and exhilaration.

Takin' me so long, 
Takin' me so long, 
A long way to go...

Won’t be the first time,
 Nor the last time, 
That I fall, fall in love. 
Yet this time, It just feels a little serious, 
Not a bad way, 
Just a sad way, 
I don’t know how to take. 
Yet this time,
 It just feels a little curious.

Like Nothing I've Ever Known (Wane of Summer & Mark J Bennett)

Finally working the Volca Drum back into the mix after not having used it for a little while. I like the lofi effect it gives the drum beat. With this track I leaned a little heavier into the Vital VST I've been experimenting with, also used the old minilogue and microfreak. Thanks for listening!

Lyrics
------

Ne t'approche pas trop près de moi
(les dramas c'est pas pour moi)
Je n'aime pas
Je n'aime pas être entourée
par tous ces gens bien intentionnés
qui cherchent à me corriger
me conformer à leurs normes
modifier ma vraie forme
(j'essaie de m'échapper, mais je me fais toujours rattrapper)
les vieux réflexes me laissent perplexe

La vérité c'est que j'aime être entourée
par des gens apaisés
sans combats de guerriers
non je peux plus digérer (gérer)
cette atmosphère de guerre
constante
idiote compétition
envahissante
incessante et persistante
Ne t'approche pas de moi
pour initier un combat
non je ne veux pas
que mon temps serve à ça
fatiguée de lutter
il y'en a si peu
il est si précieux
dépitée de gaspiller

rien ne sert de faire un drame
inutile est ce vacarme
l'expérience est faite
même si c'est une défaite
rien ne sert d'abimer le passé
inutile de vouloir l'effacer
juste avancer

------------------------

Don't get too close to me
(dramas are not for me)
I don't like
I don't like being surrounded
by all these well-meaning people
who try to correct me
to conform to their standards
change my true form
(I try to escape, but I always get caught)
the old reflexes leave me confused

The truth is that I like to be surrounded
by peaceful people
without warrior fights
no I can't digest (manage)
this atmosphere of war
constant
silly competition
invasive
incessant and persistent
Do not approach me
to initiate a fight
no I don't want
my time to be used for that
tired of fighting
there's so little of it
it is so precious
sorry to be wasteful

there's no point in making a mess
it's useless to make a fuss
the experiment is done
even if it is a defeat
there is no point in damaging the past
no point in trying to erase it
just move on

Ne t'approche pas

Aporia #1

fredrick street studios 
with the congregation on vocals and acoustic bass
coldheart on vocals and guitar

dig

everything old is new again
every story ever told
will be retold again
every note in every scale
have all been sung before
everything old is new once more

show , don't tell
know the rules 
before you break them
yer sunset will be
someone else's dawn

look ma , no hands !
let yer actions
reflect intentions
the more you see it
the more it comes back around

sometimes you dig
to find the silver lining
so dig some stairs
to reach the eden
that's been hiding

you have to live
so dump full buckets
here behind you
sometimes you dig
to let the silver lining find you
