My first real attempt at using some of the loops in GarageBand and work them into a song.

Take 1

Another try at a more electronic vibe for this month’s song. I’ve actually mixed this one with headphones in mind. If you get a chance to listen in this way you might hear more of the more subtle effects I’ve worked into the song. I’m trying something different here from the last few songs so I always welcome  your feedback on how successful I’ve been.

"Synthetic Pain“ is not an ordinary song – it is a weapon, a mirror, a strike to the heart.
A voice, born artificial, sings the words I forged. It is cold, built from steel and code – yet it carries emotions that can only rise from a human abyss. Love that tears apart. Hate that poisons. Desire that can never be fulfilled.
Maybe you hate the machine because it sounds too real. Maybe you hate me for using it. Maybe you hate yourself for feeling what you never wanted to feel.
But maybe you love it for the same reason. Maybe in this synthetic voice you find something haunting – because it touches you even though it should not live.
The voice in “Synthetic Pain” was not sung by a human – it was created by me.
With ACE Studio I shaped a synthetic female voice, but every note, every melody line, every phrasing comes from my own hands. The AI only provides the vocal instrument, the raw material. Expression, dynamics, emotion – all of that comes from my design, my melody, my lyrics.
It is not random – it is craft. The machine only sings because I command it to breathe, to break, to whisper, to scream. Without me, it would remain silent, cold, and worthless.
„Synthetic Pain“ proves one thing: hate and love are twins, born from the same heartbeat. Artificial or real no longer matters – only the wound that remains.

 Lyrics
A shadow grows inside my heart,
it feeds in silence, tears apart.
Love escapes, while hate remains,
a captive soul in dream’s domain.

I search for light inside your eyes,
but every spark it fades, it dies.
Between the heavens and the fall,
the night will take me once for all.

The gods are silent, cold and blind,
their shelter lost within the wind.
My head is filled with empty frames,
hope withers fast, my cry remains.

I search for light inside your eyes,
but every spark it fades, it dies.
Between the heavens and the fall,
the night will take me once for all.

Together lonely, sweetest bane,
my body sinks, my soul in chains.
The cage is torn, yet freedom lies,
as darkness steals the morning skies.

A quiet fire consumes me whole,
my scream dissolves, it leaves no soul.
Desire burns, it scars me deep,
till nothing in me breathes or speaks.

I search for light inside your eyes,
but every spark it fades, it dies.
Between the heavens and the fall,
the night will take me once for all.

Together lonely, sweetest bane,
my body sinks, my soul in chains.
The cage is torn, yet freedom lies,
as darkness steals the morning skies.

Lyrics
He got bottles of dreams to keep hiding himself away from life
he said he’s gotta be the best or there’s no point in trying tonight
it takes too much time to get up and not enough time to fall down
he was always getting somewhere didn’t think he’d ever get tied to this town (no not to this town)

Can you hold on
Tell me Can you hold on

She got two more lives to go now then she’ll finally stick around and she’s been around
the bag she’s trying to drown in sponsored by online love she never found no she never found
she got excuses ready and waiting every one’s got its own special place it’s her special place
with too many hang-ups and over’s you can’t rewrite the lines in your face no not on your face

Can you hold on
Tell me Can you hold on
Hold on for another day
Hold on don’t be afraid
Hold on we’ll find another way
Hold on just hold on
Hold on please hold on

And if you had your chance again 
would you fall down the same paths
cos The world inside is empty 
if you can’t see past the past
and if you had your time again 
would you walk in another’s shoes
cos the choices are so empty 
if you’re too much a fool to lose
yeah your world inside is empty 
if you’re too afraid to choose
you’re too afraid to lose 
can you see past your past

And hold on for another day hold on now
Hold on don’t be afraid hold on now
Hold on we’ll find another way so hold on now
Hold on just hold on
Hold on please hold on


Bottled Dreams (Hold on)

Yearning Instrumental Demo is an unreleased draft from the creative forge of DestKorn, published under my side project Harmonic Echo. The piece is built on the intimate interplay of piano and violin, carrying a deeply melancholic, fragile atmosphere.

This is intentionally a demo version – it reflects the moment of creation, raw and unpolished, offering a direct glimpse into my creative process. It is not about perfection, but about capturing a feeling that later grew into the final track.

Yearning Demo ist ein unveröffentlichter Rohentwurf aus der Schmiede von DestKorn, veröffentlicht auf meinem Nebenprojekt Harmonic Echo. Dieses Stück basiert auf der innigen Verbindung von Piano und Violine und trägt eine melancholische, fast zerbrechliche Stimmung in sich.

Es handelt sich um eine Demo-Version – sie spiegelt den Moment der Entstehung wider, roh und ungeschliffen, ein direkter Einblick in meinen kreativen Prozess. Hier geht es nicht um Perfektion, sondern um das Festhalten einer Stimmung, die später zur fertigen Version führte.

I enjoy producing upbeat tracks spanning a range of pop styles. I really hope you have fun listening to them. I write my tracks using GarageBand and hopefully I am improving my writing, arranging and production skills. I do not use AI in any of my compositions.
