hello wb peeps smile synthy talkbox lovesick funk/soul for you smile
drums are bfd core, synths are all sugar bytes unique except the solo which is harmless, talkbox is a mxr m222 with a korg minilogue as the source smile

it's going to be a busy year for me but let's do this! smile

words:
-----
there was a time when i was looking for love
had you on my mind and no one else was enough
but i was scared of getting stuck in the way
of what was keeping you there

so can i keep you here
until we disappear?
let's make a promise
that we'll be honest
can i make you happy?
can i make it right?

there was a moment i was searching for truth
i found it in the mirror that i held to you
but i was blind to what was staring me back
when i looked in your eyes

so can i keep you here
until we disappear?
i'm always hoping
as long as i'm open
you're always an option
we'll start from tonight

call it need, call it greed
i want you to want me
call it trust, call it lust
i just know that it's love

so can i keep you here
until we disappear?
let's make a promise
that we'll be honest
can i make you happy?
can i make it right?

This is so funky. And then the synth solo at ~2:13? _swoon_

tight and syrupy grooves here! and dat solo. Fantastic start to the year ngl

This is a really fun track.  The smooth funky vibe rules and the vocals sound great. 

this sounds great and now i feel 10 x cooler than i did 5 minutes ago heart

Love the talkbox. Damn there is lots of work involved in this track. Really like the drums and bass relation.

Solide.

I love tracks that instantly set the mood like this, really on point funklove vibe A++

lovely cozy vibes straight off the bat smile excellent vocoder! such a smooth as heck sound!

So nice I had to listen twice. Really great. Nailed the vibe and sounds effortless even with the amount of work I can tell went into this. Welcome back, happy new year, excited to see what you have in store for the coming weeks heart

OMG this is great! So smooooooooooth...

this track knows how to romance those synths! heart

Oh boy, I looove how this kicks off. Really reminds me of one of my favorite daft punk songs, "something about us". This is such a great submission all around: lyrics, vocals, composition, melody, beat, and overall vibes. A++ all around!

Dat funky melancholic chord progression hits me right in the feels!

that talkbox is super cool! instant classic track!

I really really like this one, so mellow and easy on the ears, great little solo and that talkbox kills!

Oh that is smooooth! A nice groove, impeccable rhythm sense and great vibe! That track is a banger - great composition, great vocals and vibe. Love it.

Then the solo hit.  Dude, this is amazing work.  Super soulful and warm - wild synth layering - solid lyrics - great production values.  Great to hear you back on fire! heart

Love the vibe!

Funky deluxe! Gooood vibes

Awesome, gotta love some Funky Talkbox!!!

great transitions and melodies. Just floating along, smooth and funky indeed.

I looooove talkbox. I really dig the lyrics and chord progression. Everything about this track is dope. Love it!

This made me at least 20% cooler for having listened to it.

this shit got so much swagger its out of control

i just finished it and tbh no disrespect to anybody else but i think i peaked my listen for the week already

Awesome way to open the new year!   heart

Once I figure out how to add custom tracks to Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, this is going in the radio rotation.

Love the vibes here, nice work!

What an entry! Setting the bar high, I see... Very nice choice of instruments, and good, dynamic arrangement. Everything vibes really well.

Wow, that's not a genre I expected to see here but it totally works. I love to see it. It's an entire track, with a proper arrangement, lyrics, vocals, and everything. Definitely a very strong start of the year!

Oh man this is awesome! Super catchy, I was vibing

Amazing!!

loving the talkbox throughout and the lead starting at 2:15 hottt

Incredibly smooth. Excellent comp. Clever lyrics. So much better than Daft Punk! smile
