Moon Shot
by @lbrewington
Challenge: Moon EchoLiner Notes
I was inspired by a forum post by @headfirstonly that discussed a plugin where the engineer traveled to a radio transmitter/receiver and bounced signals off the moon which created an echo effect with a Doppler wobble. I thought the video was pretty rad so I downloaded the plugin and started tinkering with it. That lead to the inspiration for this song. I fumbled around with the plugin but could never get it to stick with what i was working with so I tried to use one of the effects during the instrumental break (i don't think it worked, but with some more tinkering I think there could be potentially be something there so just a placeholder for now). I also added the "moon dust" white noise that slowly builds over the duration of the song. I felt bad not able to incorporate the plugin the way I wanted, but thanks for the song Moon Echo. Here is the forum post if anyone cares to watch the video:

Lyrics
i'm yearning for you
your searching for me
we share this moon
so desperately
send your voice to the stars
let the moonlight reflect
all of the thoughts
that you're keeping tonight
f am
moon shot
c g am
carry me back home
f g c
mooon shot tonight
there's a spot on the moon
where the echoes go
it's sending back
all the whispers it got
through magic or science
i cannot say
but questions never change
the truth of the way
[chorus]
[solo]
[chorus]
through space and time
we've drifted apart
but the universe still connects us all
so send your prayers to the sky
with an lunar embrace
leave our yearning
for the sun of the day
[chorus]
o moon shot tonight
