"A Different Direction" a Hooktronica original for TVFest

[Hook]

I've only seen 4 or 5 episodes of Lilyhammer but its inspired 3 songs so far. I was in traffic the other morning and before I knew it I was writing about this quirky show again. The music started with garage band keyboards (Helix) and then I added GB drums, I switched over to the ikaossilator and did 4  parts, Airy Bells, Sweep Lead., organ &  Motion Pad. Then I used 3 tracks for the vocals (ps02 as a mic into the 008),14 tracks total (lots of stereo tracks) only one bounce. recorded/mixed &  mastered on the DP-008. Leveler, normalized & trimmed in audacity.

A Different Direction

written & performed by Hook

It seems everywhere I go there's a disturbance
Roads are blocked lanes are closed
 No one's prepared alternative routes to go

I see a different direction
One hardly traveled barely know

It seems everything I say there's a backlash unexpected
I feel that everything I try to do is met with trepidation and apprehension

I see a different direction
One hardly traveled barely know
Yes I see a different direction
One I'm willing to take on my own

It seems everyone I meet is backwards
Ass in front of feet mouth in front of eyes
Like the horse is in the cab
And I'm pulling the cart
You've all been hitched from the start

Ooh nice 'tronics.

What a great mix.

That was cool to listen to. Hearing the detail in the sounds and how they change from section to section is always interesting to me since I pick up on things I may have not noticed on the first listen. I also like where you take the lyrics.

Wowwwwwwwwww.  Love it love it.
What a great change in direction for you hook.
This could be a great tune for a tv show itself.
Bravo ,straight into the pie pod mate

Stunning job, again! Really cool atmosphere on this!

It is always nice to read how you've recorded your tunes, thanks for the info!

I was going to say it is great to see you moving from your comfort zone, but....

...you are in your comfort zone!!!!

[Farrell Jackson]

Great job Hook! You are really using all your resources to your advantage with the latest recordings. This one has a lot of things to listen for and it's ultra clear.
