about

This song is based on a beat I made on a Korg Volca Beat. I wanted a new cheap musical toy, so I got one of these little things and started messing with it. The beat was originally busier, with congas and sampled toms. I simplified it, played an acoustic drum kit over it, and built the rest of the song around it. My friend Lenny (Rival Dancer) brought a Korg Minitaur and we hooked it up with some of my pedals to create some crazy soundscapes and effects.

lyrics

I thought I knew the meaning, but I’ve lost the feeling
not that I believe in love.
Taking me for granted, fading in the background.
Caught between the rhythms of you.

I am taking my time
Slow down, slow down and come to me.
I need to lie down
I am already over the edge.

Heart is like a landslide
Racing like a Nascar
But I’ll never leave you again

Lying on the cold floor
Mind’s about to go slow
Time to get away now, oh yeah.

I am taking my time
Slow down, slow down and come to me.
I need to lie down
I am already over the edge.

I found myself forlorn
I can see it in your eyes.
