FoxPuppy If you love 80's synthwave, the multi-talented and versatile Depthbuffer definitely has you covered with this track, but, like everything Depthbuffer does, it's got some weirdness to make it extra fun and unique.

about

My first track with real, audible, human vocals, rather than a speech synth or vocoder - although a vocoder does make an appearance in the outro. Also my first conscious attempt at any form of songwriting; the "lyrics" in my other work so far barely count, as they're either unintelligible, or more just snippets of spoken word. Only three verses, and hardly a literary or poetic triumph, but it's a start.
Having never mixed & mastered vocals before, I had to learn a lot (again) in a very short space of time before this one really came together. Diving straight in head-first with stacked, effect-laden vocals was a bit of a baptism of fire, but I think the end result sounds OK. Overall, I'm very happy with this and proud of the level of production "sheen" I achieved.

The full 7-minute version will most likely be the closing track on my next EP, whenever that happens.

lyrics

Come and sit with me in the evening light
Our hopes and dreams will crystallize
Lay down with me under the starry night
Let's drift away under Miami skies

Close your eyes and listen to the tide
Feel the ocean breeze, your hand in mine
Come with me on this intergalactic ride
The moon and the stars will be our guide

The first rays of light across the bay
Our souls intertwined as our bodies play
The morning chorus leads the way
As the sun starts to rise on another day

(Lay down with me)
(Let's drift away)
(Come and dream with me)
(Just float away)
