I was interested to hear how the octolute would sound with a bass accompaniment. I like it!

Lyrics

The root of a tree
kicked by the boot of a three
legged man who can't find the
pair of shoes to fit all three feet
so he wears a pair on two
and a boot on the third
and as the man with two shoes
and one boot
walks down the street
he runs into his neighbor
a man made of hamburger meat
and his wife, a bottle of ketchup
and the three walk together to the
luncheonette to meet up
with the man made of hot dog meat
and his wife, a jar of mustard
and they drink coffee
(except for the wife, the jar of mustard,
who drinks herbal tea)

A shoe, a shoe and a boot

There's something about the lyric that's a sort of exercise in mindfulness. I found myself really hanging on each word and following along. The end made me chuckle. I'm not sure how it all works, but I found myself much more present and serene at the end

So great! As far as genre is concerned, it's totally different, but the full-on surrealistic approach reminds me of the French singer Rodolphe Burger and his band Kat'onoma. I find the same cradling vibe in your track, as you're painting a soundscape that is filled with meanders, but certainly not incoherent.

Octolute and rubber bass are a really good pairing! The melodica adds something haubting to it!
It all sounds mysterious and dreamy!
Surreal lyrics at the best!
Very good!

Definitely surreal lyrics and interesting music. Edgy, kind of good weird, and enjoyable . I searched but couldn’t find anything, so I got to ask, what is an Octolute?
