Title: "Instantly" a Hook original
Post by: Hook on July 09, 2017, 08:57:22 PM
Did this one yesterday & today all over the house on the BR80. Mixed it on the DP24sd. Drums arew the roland handsonic & the synths are the mininova.
1 uke =/vocal
2 drums (stereo)
1 U bass
1 synth pad (stereo)
1 synth lead (stereo)
Instantly
written & performed by Hook
Voices
That can't be ignored
Messages that conflict
Could they possibly predict

Visions
Of what might be
Seems it's not for me
Cruel destiny

A door yet to be open
In a hallway I haven't found
An opening to a tunnel
that passes Underground
A way to fold or bend the space
that lies between a and b
A way to find the end
Instantly

Vaccums
Heart and mind
Tomorrow's left behind
Newness lost with time

Very fresh and original. A bit sci-fi somehow. Some lovely chord changes, switching major to minor.

Really cool song. I like how you have gone all Ringo on the drums.

loving the uke, kinda holds it all together. lots of mad stuff going on but the consistency of the uke is like the safe place at the centre of the storm. braw bro.

Very busy song in places and so much swirling around,like jim says its like the Ike's in the eye of the storm and the instruments are spinning round it.
A hypnotic trance like song bro.
Great stuff.

Strange song with that dissonant synth lines, great ambiguous atmosphere & vocals
Agree with Kenny Mac and the "hypnotic transe" effect of the song
Love the little drum :-)
