Ground Effect

I began working on this beat a month ago and realized it was an opportunity to incorporate more synthwave into my collection with a touch of space rock. As I developed the beat, lyrical ideas began to emerge, along with thoughts of adding a guitar. This music could serve as a way to divert your attention from current events and transport you to a different place. It's like endless summers from the past, with stunning poolside views and well-dressed companions.

Silhouette Skyline 

Gone are the memories of the skyline and 
crashing waves 
Turning all the corners on the surf tide 
I will catch a break

Bygone eras of your life appear
like magic
paint the neon canvas all balcony tone 

Beautiful and fancy 
Balcony tone
I could still see you
Silhouette moonshine 

Beautiful and fancy 
Balcony tone
I can still see you
Silhouette moonshine 
Beautiful dressed up 
Dinner at pool side 

Soaking up wind and the sun rays 
Think of what the future might be   
Turning all the corners of the surf tide
Finally catch a break - catch a break

I can still see you dancing in the moonlight
beautiful and fancy balcony tone
tones on the skyline 
balcony tone silhouette skyline

Medicate My Mind

Mindless

Are We There Yet?

Verse 1:

Princess Murasaki, she prayed for a special gift,
Devotion has its limits, now prepare for a seismic shift.

Chorus 1:

Hase-hime, a gift so true, but she don't know how to look at you,
She's on her own, the men move in, the cheats' and the liars' every sin.

Verse 2:

Jealousy's a mistress, she takes you to a darkened place,
Hatred leads to obsession, obsession steals your grace.

Chorus 2:

Hase-hime, a girl so true, angelic koto just for the few,
Danger surrounds, it's hard to tell, the House of Hase so easy to fell.

Verse 3:

Banished from her Kingdom, threatened, hurt and far away,
No one comes to see her, until that fateful day.

Chorus 3:

Hase-hime, the years have been kind, your beauty shows that good is defined,
Knock on the door, don't open wide, it's your past that's coming cos hope has died.

Middle 8:

Instrumental.

Coda:

Hase-hime, the beautiful orphan,
Hase-hime, goodness kills evil,
Hase-hime, where's the happy ending?
Hase-hime, a gift so very true.

A common term related to investing can also apply to various aspects of life. The fear of missing out, driven by others' participation, can lead to negative outcomes. This track was started about a month ago using Model 84 and 77 Softube synthesizers, along with a Juno emulation. I incorporated guitars similar to those used in "Endless Summer Daze" and "Unrealized Future," and it features a synth bass Arturia preset called "Pet Shop Boys."

FOMO 

They all wait in line for the money machine 
Caught in an avalanche of emotion 
Don’t wanna rain on your parade

Fear of missing out
Now you’ve jumped into the
shark tank
You thought you’d join in too late 
Now the bank has taken it all away 
 
So you found what your hoping to emulate 
Everyone’s winning and you wanna 
partake in it

Fear of missing out
Now you’ve jumped into the
shark tank
You thought you’d join in too late 
Now the bank has taken it all away

FOMO

Verse 1:

I know that the mirror will make you shine,
Looking back to a happier time.
Matsuyama gave us the greatest gift,
But my crushing depression ain't gonna shift.

Chorus 1:

Instrumental

Verse 2:

Reflected stranger looking back at me,
I know I should love her but I cannot see.
Stashed away, put it out of sight right now,
Never gonna look cos I don't know how.

Chorus 2:

Instrumental

Middle 16:

Instrumental

Coda:

Tokyo, a mythical place,
A City of the Free, the Feast of the Dead.
