The International House of Dancakes Dan Warren

Just a quick and dirty living room demo I recorded on my iPad of something I'm working on.

Give me your credit cards
I wanna buy you a gift
Down at the grocery store
I'll need a lift
It's too far for walking
And I've had a few
But I wanna buy something
Really special for you
No, I won't buy more than you'd allow
I think I know you well enough by now

I heard your new record
It's really not bad
You get so much mileage
Out of always being sad
You use the finest materials
To frame your broken heart
So that all of the tourists
Will think you're this work of art
But you know I don't buy your stories anyhow
I think I know you well enough by now

The last time I saw you
You were walking home alone
I offered to drive you but you said
The city knows its own
I said "that's a good line, sunshine, take a fucking bow,
and I think I know you well enough by now"

This is a bunch of instrumental music I made for a documentary called River Runner many years ago, just sort of stuffed together in one track.

I don't know why I made this either but here it is.

This is a track I did for the Frog Fractions 2 ARG, it was meant to be an artifact from the remains of the civilization of Bug Mars. It's a song of mourning in the last days of a dying civilization.

Lyrics:

There was no war, there was no victory
No grand defeat to make some sense of the
Things that we lost, things that we gave for free
Because we never understood
That when it's gone, it's gone for good

The sparkles kill and then they fade away
The heart grows still amid the world's decay
Even the atmosphere has bled away
And still we never understood
That when it's gone, it's gone for good

Sometimes I like to just sit down and build a generative music machine that makes pretty noises. This was one of those days, and this is the result.

Just a little instrumental thing I bashed together while learning to use Playbox
