Song319_Future Human

Today's song is a little odd...low-fi, somewhat dissonant, often abrupt, slightly sloppy (in a precise way), and full of interesting nonsense. I started this recording session by layering a series of drum sequences (130bpm), and then I wrote/recorded 3 electric guitar tracks...followed by the bass guitar. There is only one synth track in today's song, and it only appears at the end of the song. I was able to complete the music for this song (8-tracks) in under 3 hours. I spent an additional hour writing lyrics and recording the vocals.

LYRICS: "Here comes the final invasion. Don't show fear to their faces. Ride through the enemy-soaked lines. Howl at the gods past the bloody skies. Here comes the real-life 'Death Star,' (and) The Maker's son to save the whole world. The need grows for robot appendages, and bullet-proof men with invisible outfits. No need to talk things over. Bullets carry out their orders. Break through the enemy-soaked lines. Howl at the gods past the bloody skies. Send in the New World Order. One throne, and no more borders. Lend all your helping hands. Live for the future human. There's not just one, there's everyone. One-in-a-million, just like you."
