Sound Sketchpad

I am extraordinarily lazy. Which sucks not just for me because I can never finish anything to put up online, but also for anyone that might have wanted to hear my stuff... which I am aware may be exactly 0 people. Anyway, rather than conquer my laziness, I came up with a way to upload the works in progress since that seemed easier. So here it is, my sound sketchpad!

I'll be playing with the theme though because I'm not happy with how it looks yet... But hopefully more music & stuff finds its way online now! 

This will also be the place things go when they're too short/repetitive or I don't like them enough (like B sides) to put them on my real Soundcloud https://soundcloud.com/570rm so there will be quantity not necessarily quality on the sketchpad.

Melancholic

I'm floating in the galaxy and I've lost my mothership
It's hard to breathe can somebody flip the switch
Cause it's too dark to see I fear I'm losing me and to be honest, it's getting lonely
I've got nothing to hold on to
Cause I'm out here without you
Not that I need you but I just want to see you because maybe I miss you a little bit.
It's me against the melancholic
I planned this out. I was trying to be an optimist about it.
It didn't look like this in my head, in my head.
All I can think about is my bed, is my bed.
We're in the relevance.

I could fall asleep if you were next to me
Let's get lost in my dreams or somewhere in the galaxy.
Flip the switch. Push the buttons.
Fly this ship I know you're all in.

I'm a slave to the fantasy.

But this has set me free.

every scar tells a story

here's a pretty basic/boring piano soundscape to accompany my musings :)

Lately I've been fascinated by scars. Each scar is uniquely yours and symbolizes a time when you were stronger than whatever challenged you. Your skin grew back tougher, thicker- marking you as braver than before. Scars are second chances and also an insight into the human who bears them. Chances are you remember the stories behind yours because they've made you who you are. 

So tell me, what are the best stories your scars tell?

i love you
