(I am like a) Fine Reserve

Liner Notes

#fawmtronica

I always try to get a 'fawmtronica' song in every year and I always enjoy them as I have no idea what is going to come out of them until I start. This started from a couple of cool little loops I found online and then built the song around it. It has a certain something that grooves along. It also has a filthy drum 'n bass loop to close it which I was tempted to carry on but forced myself to fade out so I could go to bed.

Lyrics

Yes I see the light I see the light I see the light I see the light. (X4)

Just because we own it, doesn’t mean that it belongs to us Just because I mean it, doesn’t really mean all that much. Just because I’m lonely, Doesn’t mean that I should settle for anything less…

That is just what I deserve, I am like a fine reserve, I’ve just been kept alone for far too long. It is just what I deserve, I’ve been driving in reverse, Been going backwards now for far too long.

Yes I see the light...

Close my eyes Pass through seasons, No need to worry, No shadows or lesions, If you could just check in from time to time.

Yes I see the light...

This First line resembles very much one of my favourite songs on my parents LP’s when I was a child: Donna Summer’s ‘I Feel Love’. Nice melody in the verses. Very creative part at the end. I like the music and the overal feeling of this song. Wooooww, what’s that at the end?!? For sure the sign exploded and it fits it realy well. I would indeed explore on this further!

really love these vocal harmonies and delivery. great lyrics too. the production really highlights the voice and is more on the sparse, cool side. great track!

Woah was I not expecting that!!! Super chill radiohead vibes, except much funkier! I loved the descending vocal lines. That really took me somewhere. Very tasteful use of extra sounds! Of course we have to talk about the fastest drum break I've ever heard at the end. Who knew that would work so well over what you already had going on!? Bravo+++ #tit4tat

Ireally like your lyrics and vocals in this. The busy rhythm loop underneath it adds a different aspect. I like the strings and would probably have enjoyed more of that - (think this would be nice full orchestral). The dirty bass stuff at the end - not really my thing but then I'm old old school and not really down with the kids. Lol. :-) #tit4tat

Cracking track! Love that those pretty minimalist rhythm loops. The strings are very cool when they come in too, but what I really love in this are the vocals. The chorus is especially banging. The BVs remind me of Cream. Very cool indeed. #tit4tat

Loop - okay. Oh! An interesting bass line! String sounds - always nice! Vocals, doubled, double-doubled. Cool! Man, you've got a great timing! Perfectly sung! Very catchy!

Thanks for listening and commenting on my Where did you go?

This is fun and funky! You've created a nice groove. I like how the rhythm of the lyric sits in the beat. Nice harmonies too!
