The Surreal Age of the Naked Lemon

Traditional song with an electronic arrangement. I don't have autotune so some of the notes are a bit wobbly sometimes. I rewrote the lyrics because I don't know the original verses.

I've now done 2 for the Rpm challenge but these were the easy ones.
Too much rubbish (in the pockets of our lives)
Spend half your life waiting for a train
Now you get to thinking that you should have caught the bus
So your waiting at the station…
Oh thanks, that's nice of you to put it on your Facebook. I don't have one of those but Tess does.
The music was written for the ballet Scheherazade.
But I believe the legend, she was a real person although it has been romanticised somewhat!
Thank you for your kindness!
Cheers Bethan

Ooo, unusual topic. I like your voice and the music is perky and hopeful which works really well alongside the nature of your lyric. The decision is made and you are happy with it! Nice!!
Act 1 Scene 3 - A Night on the Town, a glimpse into Fool's social life which is ... going round to his mates and getting stoned, going to the pub and the disco in an attempt to get a girl, which he manages to do in the last song.
gonna listen to the rest later, but this album is really, really, really cool. It's like a mixture of everything I like, and yet sounds like none of them.
Act 2 Scene 2 - The Gig - Fool and his friend Hotdog go to see The Seven Spiders in concert but there is a really heavy atmosphere and the bouncers are being aggresive ... they leave before the end and walk home together, the conversation turns…
Act 1 Scene 1 The Disco - this is music from my musical, the opening scene which is set in a disco (nightclub - if you are under 40!!). It explores the different perceptions of the club in a pseudo-political and economic view. Mr Evol - the…

Space Trumpet was an excuse to try out my new plugin "Little Spacey" from Expert Sleepers and also to exercise the Kore sounds from Acoustic Refractions.
MIDI was supplied via IAC from Reaktor using Lazyfish's Spiral sequencer. The project…
Another one from my ambient crackpot series.
This features two instances of my new instrument the Novaphone 340 Imperial. A grand name for a grand instrument (Xylo just didn't do it justice).
The first Novaphone is playing three samples…
A micro-tonal piece made using one instance of the Novaphone 340 ("Imperial") playing 3 piano samples from SoundIron's "Emotional Piano 2.0".
The samples were sequenced using a MIDI keyboard using the Novaphone Micro-8 scale (1/8 semitone per…
Reg is feeling a bit uneasy about his new love......is she getting too close too quickly......only time will tell....should he stay and feel the love?............
From the album of the same name, this track really was recorded on a dark and stormy night, just to see if any of the elemental turmoil going on outside would lend its ambience to the proceedings. The thunder claps came from a sound effects album…
Regs party has just started down the cellar but Johnny's got them all going down on a bummer with this until Elvis brought it back up by remarking how lucky we are not to be Billy and Jim filled everyones glass and it looks like the partys going…
After the damp squib of a start to the party it eventually got started and what a party it was........you should have been there....the whisky started to flow......it must have been the most debauched night down the cellar yet…
Chris sent this track to me earlier today with the request that I add some percussion to it.
I had something different in mind.
After the first take I was afraid to return it to him, fearing that he would convert it to 23 edo or something…
This is a recording of Norm and me playing together a few months ago. I didnt have any percussion instruments so Norm was on a Roland electric trap set and I had a cello. I looped some of the stuff we did that night, and retrofitted the rest…
Format Sea - Part Two
Based on the age-old concept that a person is born anew every seven years. It's technically meant in terms of physiology - you develop all new bones/muscle/fat in a seven year period. I kind of add a spiritual/alien abduction…
I had to write a lyric for this one on the last day and really had no good ideas. So, as the title says... A bit of a shame as I kinda liked the vocal melody and bassline. It's one of the lesser tracks now (together with the first one)

@CMOR I think it's about 400 years old so I don't think anyone will be claiming copyright on it lol
Very interesting cover... Is it scarboro fair-trade? ;^D
Great tune and great mixing.
Love this take on Angie's lyrics (and then some!) - and as ever, I love your music, and your style! Smooooooth!!
I like this track... It takes me all over the mental map, right to where 'X' marks the spot!
I like the green maschine taste buds:)
The theremin sounds are a nice effect.
