Skirmish: Moon (@44nifty)Liner Notes
#casiocore #comedy #keithmoon #vl-tone1 #weirdisasweirddoes
I love my casio vl-tone 1 and i guess I got carried away! This started out as a very simple, one lefthand keyboard part I could play while singing, then I just kept adding tracks until it turned into this unweildy monster!
So two things inspired the Casio VL Symphony/monstrosity. @silentmonkey messaged me inviting me to collab on one of their lyrics - Did not notice I'd picked one they had written for the skirmish "Moon" (natch) ; also earlier today I was writing a review of a @datamusik song where I made a joke about it being "The three minute datamusik hit single" which put the idea in my head. Maybe why this is so weird I think and also almost exactly three minutes long.
All together now, "you may not like it but it is meant to sound like this!"
Lyrics
I awake, sweat-fevered at the perishing of woe-be-tidal tricks : Moon, so full on
As to sing and shout it, lubricate His own eclipse, As the rogue Quadrophenia Ingest our airs,
Caress our saline lips ; Leaving Keith to summon us aboard and drum us madly Across the sticks
Don't leave Earth alone x7 We all leave Earth alone
repeat chorus.

:)groovy-grunge j$, !t u - an Ed Wood / Clangers short about the dangers of Space, with Keith as narrator. (I'm watching it.) Plus, takes me to Eno's 'Warm Jets/Faraway Beach', obliquely, f(l)ittingly.
I thin we've all been there Paul. Or have I said too much? I feel suitably discomforted this morning after listening to this. Thanks for all the who references as well. Good work!
Casio people unite ! forever! bloody good
