Citizen of Nowhere

By alonemusic on October 9, 2016 10:32 pm

Hello track 40.
Earlier this week I was somewhat enraged by some political comments made by the Prime Minister of the UK stating 'If you think you are a citizen of the world, you are citizen of nowhere'. Frankly I had to use that before Billy Bragg, not sure if I got there first, but that comment just rubbed me the wrong way. It is that kind of small minded nationalism that will lead us into the darkness.

The track itself was meant to be something dark and moody, like HEALTH, but I don't do that very well, instead let pulsing side chains and NES leads mix into whatever this is. Enjoy. As loud as you want.

Not sure I fully dig the pre-guitar intro. It feels like there should be something there, but not what's there now.

The rest is solid and definitely fits somewhere in the story.

Great track!
Small minded nationalism, but we are all on same Spaceship Earth!
