So here’s the thing… I’ve spent almost half my life making songs and frankly, there are some good parts, but nothing I would consider top knotch just yet. here you can find random stuff I or we worked up. This contains explicit material and is posted in no particular order.

So I got this synthisizer called Vital and learned how to make bass noises with it. This was the first song I made with it. I was lost for a while but then I was hanging out with my friend Danny and stuff started flowing. I was really proud of the result but then I showed it to some friends and they all seemed unimpressed. Coming back to it, There are parts I wish I could make better. However, I don’t know that I know how. I suppose that’s why I post the project files for download. I don’t know that I’m good enough to make hit music alone so I’m hoping someone else will make it happen for me and by that point it’ll be for us. That’s fair though right? Pretty much every pop musician has producers. This is just a more transparent version of the process. Less lucrative though. Those producers get paid for the work they do. This wouldn’t even pay much in exposure the way a song contest would, but I’m hoping that someone out there hears this and then imagines a better version that they could make and does it in such a way that we both feel good for having the experience. Whether or not that happens, it’s only a matter of time before Lazer Bear destroys us.
Lyrics:
I don’t know your grandma but she must have been kind of a freak
because she’s got a condition that’s got you asking
how’d she get it? how’d she get it? how’d she get it? How’d she get that funk up in her blood?
how’d she get it? how’d she get it? how’d she get it? Talking bout your grandma
Your grandma’s got hepatitis! Your grandma’s got hepatitis B!
Your grandma’s got hepatitis! Your grandma’s got hepatitis B!
Did you put her in an old folks home? I heard those places like to get freaky.
Imagine all those old dicks rubbing on your grandma
how’d she get it? how’d she get it? how’d she get it? How’d she get that funk up in her blood?
how’d she get it? how’d she get it? how’d she get it? Talking bout your grandma
Your grandma’s got hepatitis! Your grandma’s got hepatitis B!
Your grandma’s got hepatitis! Really Really glad she didn’t give it to me!
And I don’t hold anything against you
I know you didn’t know now
Your grandma’s got hepatitis! Your grandma’s got hepatitis B!
Your grandma’s got hepatitis! Really Really glad she didn’t give it to me!
I made this beat and wrote lyrics to it about my feelings for someone. After singing it a handful of times, I realized that she wouldn’t like the song, I might not be able to stand by it, and I couldn’t sing it even if I wanted to. My voice just isn’t that good. That freaking hurts ya know? I know it seems trivial to be upset about not being able to sing, but I’ve been doing this as a hobby for over a decade now and you’d think I’d actually learn how to do it. It’d be really nice to be able to sing the kind of songs that melt hearts and have the body to back it up. For now, there’s learning to do while the world is in chaos. you can monitor the process on the free beats page
This song was made out of frustration at the America. I don’t know who K-Bow is; however, 813 is a Russian producer and the irony is not lost on me. I love my country. I also love everyone else. Let’s all do our part!!!! (I say while dicking around on my computer instead of feeding the homeless)
My mom challenged me to write down something to let go of, three things I’m grateful for, and something to focus on each day. I decided to do it in song for my vlog and made a video of myself dancing around in my underwear. The vlog has since been deleted (all 400 + episodes). The prompt was tougher than I realized. The hardest part was finding things to let go of. It’s easy to let go of money you don’t need or physical things but the real things I want to let go of aren’t just things you wake up one day and say “Well that’s enough of that!” I would love to let go of my ego, my anger, my emotional walls, or my addictions but those things take time and for a lot of them I’m not ready. (also upon reflection this was directly inspired by Dad Feels Good. I didn’t realize it at the time but credit where credit is due)
I was just playing with samples and midi maps in ableton and this came out. (Guess I’m just another fish in the sea)
