Bone Rattle Blues

Got the Atari heart-beat thumping in the parlor chair,

Playing Tetris with my feelings,

yeah, I’m living everywhere.

I’m a lover, I’m a slacker,

I’m the code inside the wire,

{dry wood-block and Atari pulse-width bass,

intimate close-mic'd female vocal with slacker nonchalance} Dancing with the primitive,

stoking up the fire.

You’re looking at my dumb face,

I’m looking at the screen,

The most professional disaster that you’ve ever seen!

{introduce delicate finger-picked acoustic guitar over digital bleeps}

Oh, we’re bending every genre,

yeah, we’re doing it for fun,

From the ancient bone to the silicon,

until the day is done!

It’s the Tiguidou contrast,

the shadow and the light,

{glitchy GameBoy jump on snare hits} Slacker-lover energy,

keeping us in flight.

I’m the whole, I’m the contradiction,

I’m the one, In the cockpit of the universe,

we’ve only just begun!

{lush orchestral swell with cedar flute over 808

trap beat, high energy R&B runs}

I’m carving out the future with a stone and with a key,

It’s a digital tradition,

it’s the way I’m meant to be.

From the ritual of rhythm to the glitch inside the brain,

{sudden drop to clay-pot percussion and square-wave synth-pad,

multi-tracked dreamy R&B vocals}

I’m the lover, I’m the logic,

I’m the sunshine and the rain!

Synchronized, prioritized, the energy is strong,

We’ve found the missing frequency,

we’ve found where we belong!

{massive build-up: acoustic guitar,

Atari leads, tribal rattles collide} 1.

[Contrast]: The ancient-future dance...

eternal. 2.

[Energy]: The slacker-lover soul...

infinite.

3. [Unity]: The collective resonance...

burning truth.

4.

[Synthesis]: The precision of the goal...

total liberation. {playful Tetris-theme arpeggio on soft acoustic flute,

console power-down

hum fade} Optimism-Sovereign. Radiant.

Resonant. Clear. Efficient. Universal.

{final

console power-down

hum, gentle flute resolution}
