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.
