A quick one today because of lack of inspiration and because tired, after trying a bunch of other things. UA spark electric piano with its own effects. Vocal track doubled, slightly delayed, hard panned, and sent to galaxy echo for weird vibes. Recorded with SM58. Hope you'll enjoy!

The dissonance between the music and the lyrics is pretty entertaining. The sillies kept building and building. Glad you got something in on the week! That electric piano sounds killer. Glad I picked it up too… now if only I could play like you.

A sparse track works very well. This is like a cocktail bar track at the end of the night. It's 2am and a person sipping a whiskey while listening to the piano and singing. This is like a scene from a Murakami book.

“You should have seen his long face!” probably it’s an old joke but still made me laugh in the context. I agree with blighters_rock that the contrast of music and lyrics it’s pretty cool and makes you want to listen the whole thing.
Good job with dreamy vocals!

I'm not afraid of the dark either but I'd still recommend you'd move, just in case.

This makes me think of myself tuning in to the weird radio station in the middle of the night and hearing Tom Wait's "Tain't No Sin" for the first time going... what the fuck did I just heard?!

slow and different but yet pretty and eerie at the same time.

Love this. Definitely getting 'had a weird night at the piano bar' vibes in the best of ways. heart

Sometimes the quick ones are the cool ones. The whole horseman plot twist is pretty hilarious. The atmosphere and the humor play really well together. Thank you.

This is charming. The way you let if flow.

Glad I lisened with the headphones, feels like my ears being massaged by the gentle tones. I like the flowyness.

Makes me want to put on a robe and sip a whiskey cocktail in a leather recliner at 2am while slowly falling asleep.

"hey, I think I got some of your mail.....did you want to come over and get it.....and maybe a glass of wine?  ......are you into hay?  if not that's cool, no problem."

the pacing is mesmerizing with the slight pauses and the echo on the voice, holds a very entrancing effect smile

Oh yea. Late night moody stuff when you're too tired to focus, too tired to be distracted.

Nice! I should put out an album of this kinda stories and sleep music.
8h of sleep music, but randomly somewhere in the middle some crazy modular synth madness to keep em on their toes

Nice! glad you liked it! it's one of the good things about freely impro piano and voice, you can do exactly the pace you want (unless you forget what you wanted to say or can't come up with a rhyme... or play a wrong note... or something....)

Very smooth.
