Wanted to put up a song today with vocals as to not break with tradition. Casio-sk1 for all the keys, just put some new flatwounds on the 6 string love machine. We are cooking with gas folks! Love you.

O this song is about how my wife distracts me when I get all stupid and panic attack-y, telling me I’ll be ok (lying through her teeth…cuz there’s no way I’ll survive….LIKELY I’m already dead and she’s lying to a ghost! Jk….I’m pretty sure I’m fine…she was right…as usual

Lyrics

I think it’s cool
The way ya just lying
through ya teeth
My heart skips
You never miss a beat
Ya babe
That’s cool

What’s been goin on
Look at what the wind blowed in
Again
I need to get a grip
What’s been goin on?
I need to catch my breath
I need the world to stop spinning circles

What’s been goin on
You been telling tall tales
Keep me distracted
What’s been going on
Focus on my breath
Focus on your voice

Nice groove goin here. At times I thought I was in Grateful Dead territory. But then it changes to something else!

@ayais 6w

The panning of the git is really sweet. I was reading about how to use irony in talking to extremists that comes to mind here, with your blend of intimacy and doubt and pure ballsyness.

Catching up on my watchlist. Holy moley where did this come from! This is different for you! I love this, such a good listen and that subtle guitar in my left ear! This is a new Fav. Brilliant

@mandolinda 9w

I like listening to your songs and learning about production. I can always take away some tasty treats to try out on my songs to up the “one take” things I put out.

@esc4p3 10w

It is a whole coherent piece despite covering so much different ground, sound, it pounds! But there is an edgy feeling to it that perhaps reflects the subject matter (panic attacks) - we all need someone to hold on to reality for us sometimes, your wife has you covered it seems ❤️

@jerrypettit 10w

Love this. Interestingly "engineered" and I do like that vocal. Great job!

@funnypunkband 10w

Really cool. Love the real talk about anxiety filtered through laid back summer vibes

@lindsaymachine 11w

yeah I'm in agreement Makodream... you sound exactly right for this song. Not a singer psh. I enjoy this. Reminds me of sitting around listening to music somebody picked up at a basement show in the early 2000's. Which is when/where I decided I wanted to try writing/performing/musicking. Thanks for this!

@makodream 11w

You can get rid of that notasinger tag, this sounded great :)

@ohljazz 11w

You create a funky, spooky vibe with this one. Love that line "My heart skips / You never miss a beat"

@gm7 11w

This has many moving parts with changes and variations I would expect...it's so @nahle381. Cool Mega Mind peep!

@slusk
If you like that chord, the structure is I-X-V

Just a 10th with the 5th on the b string. The choppy chords are just fifths on the e and b strings

If you hate those chord then kindly disregard lol

@fatboyjamz 11w

I enjoy all the moving parts. So cool. And that guitar! Great vocals + effects.

@billwhite51 11w

this is fresh. ive never heard anything quite like it. the way you shift from style to style without ever disrupting the groove. and some of those breaks are unique. beyonfd all that, it is simply a smashing, catchy song. i never get tired of the chorus no matter how many times it comes around. i want to keep hearing it.

@slusk 11w

Uhm...that chord man.... apart from that, cool production tricks, nice dubby break. As a whole I like it!

@djtjb 11w

Vocal processing sounds real nice, smoooooth
