Lullaby

Hold on tight
It’ll be a ride
Well hold on tight
It’ll be all right

Listen to “Lullaby”

Lullaby came together pretty quickly in comparison to most tracks that sit in the mixing process indefinitely. I decided to keep the track simple enough that I couldn’t muck the song up (I tend to start overdeveloping songs until they are no longer fun or lose the original energy) and left it pretty much as when it first came together. Scroll down for lyrics. Hope you enjoy!

BANDCAMP

I was listening to the song and heard a few technical issues to fix. This is an updated version and one that seems to have more and more relevance. Whenever you are feeling stuck or misunderstood, take solace that everything is temporary. We never know what to expect and when life doesn’t go the way we expected, it can be hard to move on. If you are reading this during a difficult time in your life, my hope is it offers a little warmth and comfort.

LYRICS:
Lullaby
We’re drowning in slow-mo
With nowhere else to go
Never thought it wrong
It’s time to move along

Well, hold on tight
It’ll be a ride

Oh restless and afraid
Didn’t think life goes that way
Take a deep breath and you’ll see
All the places you should be

Hold on tight
It’ll be a ride
Hold on tight
It’ll be all right

Hold on tight
It’ll be a ride
Hold on tight
It’ll be all right

Sunset Sky – M1

Sunset Sky is the name. M1 is the latest track.

Sunset Sky worked out perfectly. Approximately 99.9% of the photos I take are of the sky and sunset. So…

The Sunset Sky music site is live – not finished, but live.

M1 references a supernova remnant and the track is a moody electronic drive deep into the dark night. Get behind the wheel and let yourself go.

Sunset Sky M1
Sunset Sky – M1
M1 is one of those tracks that straddle the line between wanting to dance, listen or just… drive.

I wanted to create a track that just allowed the listener to be. Or even take you somewhere far away. It is winding a road into the sky. I hope I succeeded.

M1 Lyrics

easing into the warm night

nothing ever feels so right

yes i like it

I like it

thinking about all you said 

playing with thoughts in my head

and i like it 

i like it

no answers here

just the silence

the stars have seen — everything

only witness to our nighttime scenes

the nightscape falls in time

shadows obscure all our crimes

and i like it

i like it

moonlight sweeping outside rooms

washing midnight sins from you

and i like it

oh i like it

no answers here

just the silence

the stars have seen — everything

just remember we’re a blip on the screen

where are we now

are we now

are we now

we’ll wake up some other day instead

(were we ever here before

i don’t remember anymore

we can ask the skies above

are the stars your only love)

where are we now

are we now

are we now

we’ll wake up some other day instead

2AM — a new dance song

2AM is a dance song. Pure and simple with a twist of anxiety mixed in. Anxiety. I love it.

The Sunset Sky music site is live – not finished, but live.

Every now and then I wake up in the middle of the night and think about things – too much. I have no idea why. It doesn’t always happen, but enough that I wanted to write a dance song about it. In the middle of the night, there is nothing you can do and the worry seems so needless, yet so important. The funny thing is, whatever is being obsessed over can usually be resolved during the day, but your brain wants it resolved RIGHT now and goes over and over every single option. Drives me nuts. Here’s the track – it’s a good one.

2AM

Dance song 2AM is one of the best tracks I’ve put together. I’m getting more proficient at mixing and mastering. I’m still learning the ins and outs of proper compression and there are some EQ issues that crop up, but for the most part the tracks are starting to sound more polished. I just make one or two stupid mistakes on each, rather than the usual myriad.

Dance Song 2AM – Lyrics

it seems like 2am

don’t ask just who i am

or even what it means to me

it feels so wrong i cannot think

here i am at night

it doesn’t feel so right

the voice inside my head will

never die down stay still

im up at 2am again

i cannot think at all

why the fuck am i here

what is going on

deep into the sky

I stop wondeting why

the sun will be up soon enough

and the racing thoughts might die

when the dawn comes up 

I pretend the ghosts aren’t there

go about the day like

well i really dont care

im up at 2am again

i cannot think at all

why the fuck am i here

what is going on

i cannot sleep anymore

toss and turn all night

it’s all on my mind baby

what the hell is life

please call administration

i can’t handle this

goin down in flames

sweating through the tears

over and over why cant i stop thinking

i have to ask do you ever sleep at all

because if i’m only dreaming…

can you or will you catch my fall

A Little Song – Ease into some Chill

A little tune for your chill afternoon

A Little Song isn’t an ideal title, but it is exactly that.

A Little Song by p.m.warner

It doesn’t exactly scream, I HAVE to listen to this. But I hope you do.

The melody came to me in a dream and kept repeating itself at odd moments. In other words, it wouldn’t go away. At some point, words started to present themselves.If you need a moment to chill or just to get away for the moment, that is what this song can do for you.

Get lost in a simple tune. Perfect for your weekend afternoon.

A Little Song – Lyrics

breath

…thinking about you

not feeling alone

something about it

can’t let it go

what is happening

don’t want to go home

now you might hear me

thru this silly poem

now here’s a little song stuck inside my heart

the notes have played inside for a while

an invitation to play and dance again

we know we’re joining all the shimmering stars tonight

we gotta start somewhere

ahead is a road

lost without you

don’t want to (go) alone

what are we doing

rise with the sun

what does god say

not the only one

now here’s a little song stuck inside my heart

the notes have played inside for a while

an invitation to play and dance again

know we’re joining all the shimmering stars tonight

embracing the universe

is an endless surprise

no need to understand 

all the mysteries of life

now here’s a little song stuck inside my heart

the notes have played inside for a while

an invitation to play and dance again

we know we’re joining all the shimmering stars tonight

You Seriously Need to Listen to Synth Pop Track “Considerations”

This post contains the synth pop track Considerations and some of the thoughts behind its creation.

Synth pop track “Considerations” is, as Bob Ross would say, “A happy accident.”

“Considerations” is a new synth pop track by p.m.warner

Synth pop is the term I’m using this time. An even better word might be zeitgeist. Such a great word. I put my finger in the air often and feel the mood of a given time. I don’t always like to do it, but I do. Don’t know about you, but this last year and a half has been something, and I think that folks – generally – are doing a re-evaluation of their lives. The line “I/You need to break out, or I’m/you’re going to break down” captures that and it was something that just kept running through my head. Especially after seeing news or checking in with others.

Synth pop is the perfect vehicle for a message like this. When electronic music started making its way into the public consciousness, bands like Depeche Mode, New Order and so many lesser known bands were trying to say something while infusing those messages in soaring melodies and hypnotic, danceable beats. It was a strange mixture for many, and goths were the first to embrace it, but it didn’t take long before it started making its way into the mainstream.

Synth pop has an amazing history. I strongly suggest it for your next rabbithole of musical discovery.

Here’s the lyrics!

Synth pop track “Considerations” lyrics

sleeping in on Sunday

Feel the minutes ticking by

what am I supposed to do

Waiting for the sun to die

Days slip by in a stream

like I’m reading from a script

an idea for our scene

let’s improvise whatever’s next 

I need to break out

or I’m going to break down 

I need to break out

or I’m going to break down

Held down by convention

It’s a fucking lot of fun

You’re going to get judged in here

By pretty much everyone

You need to move on

well obviously we all know

But its hard to change your shoes

with your feet stuck in the snow

you like to party you like to disco you know the dance so c’mon let’s go

You need to break out

or you’re going to break down

you need to break out

or you’re going to break down
