Liner Notes

#melancholy #electronic #dark #duet

melancholic | ˌmɛlənˈkɒlɪk |
adjective
feeling or expressing pensive sadness: his work often has a wistful or
melancholic mood | a haunting, melancholic melody.
• denoting or affected with a severe form of depression: patients with
melancholic depression.

A dark and ominous tune which I am sure has some kind of deep meaning, maybe it will come to me in a few weeks. More important is what YOU get from it.

Female vocals processed from my vocal using Audimee AI, bite me!

Lyrics

Melancholic madness
You don't hear me at all
There is no penetration
no way through the wall

So hard to live without you
hard to live with you too
You just keep slipping away from me
No matter what I try to do

Through the fog of war
The fog of partial truth
The resilience has left me
That I once had in my youth

Sailing over the horizon
Like a scooner lost its way
Will I learn my lesson
And fight another day

But the days are growing short now
And time's not on my side
But I will once say for the record
It's been one hell of a ride

Through the fog of war
The fog of partial truth
The resilience has left me
That I once had in my youth (2)

@billwhite51 Not sure what this is about, one of those songs that kinda flows out of you in the moment, meaning sometimes emerges later, or never.

As ever thank you for your thoughtful and insightful comments

i might not understand the whole song, but those two final lines i feel in all their truth. i might add that your AI female vocals sound a lot better than the ones i create by just speeding up the rack, which makes it sound like a cartoon, while yours sound real.. prince used do do a fantastic job of manipulating his voice to sound like a girl. i dont know what he used to get those effects.

@odilongreen many thanks for the kind words, listening to this makes me wonder what's going on in my head 😀

Lush and dark like a shadowy castle on a stormy night, this is expansive and oddly beautiful even as the mystery and melancholy of the impassioned voices worm their way into my soul. Stirring, and anthemic, and ever so appealingly gothic through and through.
