What it says on the tin

[spontaneousfools-blog]

This is in response to a post from @argusargan about Lewis. Thanks for helping me write this.

fun fact I woke up the neighbours laughing while recording this. also fun fact I have no idea how to song. that last fact, in retrospect, might not be as fun as I first made it out to be.

[spontaneousfools-blog]

a MAJOR problem

i only write stupid happy songs they sound like cotton candy and bubbles

frick frick frick frick

@argusargan might need to make some minor adjustments to them

or just... do ALL the lyricism as ironic or sarcastic

[spontaneousfools-blog]

Because it’s even better without the voiceover.

So I slapped a dumb title onto it and shot it into the void.

Please forgive me.

Silver King AKA my first 4/4 song

(It's a roughy draft so if it sucks now it probably won't get much better let's be honest) High on a hill stands a man, a king Spires of rock and ice close him in He's far from his troubles and aches and pains His word is law in his domain Voices crying on the wind But he refuses to give an inch He goes where he pleases, does what he wills No desperate call will turn him from this He's got places to be but they're his own The choice is his and his alone His eyes lead where he wants to go His eyes, his hands, his heart of stone He's a man, he's an island He's a king on a throne He once had weakness He's long since disowned He's a man on a mountain, A man all alone, He's the Silver King, In his walls of stone He ignores the sadness all around And that hole in his heart won't slow him down Cause he only feels what he wants to feel When eyes are closed the pain isn't real The hole in his heart he fills with distain For mundane people and their mundane ways And they're all far below his throne of pride They can't understand his will, his drive They don't see him, they do not know That he is their king, their king alone But ignorance does not erase The crown on his head and the smile on his face He's a man, he's an island, He's a heart of stone, His soul was hurt but That was long long ago He's a man on a mountain, A man all alone, He's the Silver King, In his walls of stone

what even is wma

why is it so useless

literally no other program runs it and it completely crashes my LMMS thingy

[spontaneousfools-blog]

Bumps in the Road

@shiftaria my recording program only poops out WMA and Tumblr won’t use those so

I need your mac to record

or I’m doomed

[spontaneousfools-blog]

seriously, this is... wooooo boy... not what I typically write??? Is it???

[spontaneousfools-blog]

i make the sodft sound with thhe moog

[spontaneousfools-blog]

Unfair! Unfair!

I was going to record a nice little song on ukulele but my laptop made it sound like a bad-quality Act I, and Shifter has the good mic.

Well, I guess I’ll have to wait before posting my first song.

Song Update:

@shiftaria and @argusargan sat down two days ago to record stuff.

That stuff was utter garbage.

Well, the recordings were at least. The ideas explored in them and the structure that held them were all pretty solid.

But @shiftaria might not release them.

In other news @shiftaria ALSO recorded a song that night before @argusargan showed up. It was the first acoustic song! So that is pretty hype. It might go up when he figures out what to do with its sparseness (as was previously stated @argusargan showed up and so work on it got shelved).

And just now @shiftaria finished recording the proof of concept demo for the first song that will actually be completely fleshed (or, more likely flushed, really) out: Don’t Forget To Say Thank-You!

Now, it just needs @argusargan gibbering over it and we will be all golden.

Stay tuned in for the next big update! <3

Another sleepless night.
