Most recent DeathBoy track on the burner.

DeathBoy – Sundaywild

I wrote half of this on a plane and the Tube, using my iPhone with BeatMaker. If you want to make music out of pre-prepared loops, it’s great. If you want to make proper music, you’re going to have to put some work into it. It’s not a composition tool, it’s a loop tool.

It’s great to let people make music, but when you tell people they’re making music by letting them stick blocks together, you’re just giving them a Lego creative process. It’s good if they then go on to demand more, but it does lead to a lot of tracks-by-numbers.

Anyhoo, it did let me make a drum and bass loop or two to drop some filth over.

introverted and obscene
she covers scars in neoprene
never quite a beauty queen
she walks the world half in a dream

overwhelmed and quite erratic
she finds the message in the static
always strangely in demand
she only wants to hold your fucking hand

————————

all the time I tried to be
a better human than you see
the creature that i have become
I tried so hard but I am weak

I hate the thing I turned into
I hated me, now I hate you
I am the missing operand
I only wanted to hold your fucking hand

—————————

pretty little girls in a pretty little world
singing along to the same recycled
popular sensibilities
nothing that she could connect to

sugar and spice and all things right and
wrong and nobody ever took the time
to ask if this was how
she wanted her own universe to be
