I made a pleasing drone on the Solar 42F, and that made me wonder what it would sound like with acoustic guitar. From there, I could feel the structure of the song emerge. While the acoustic Solar 42F and acoustic guitar performances are single takes each, this is obviously a big multi-tracking performance. Sometimes that's where the music leads you.

A full walkthrough of the Solar 42F patch can be found on my Patreon. In short, the Meris Mercury X provides beautiful reverb; I'm using the Solar 42F's pitched delay for high doubling; the LFO is slowly modulating filter cutoff; and the joystick is controlling pulse width modulation for the lead synth voice, with the X axis for oscillator 1 and the Y axis for oscillator 2. Really fun stuff.

If there's interest from my Patreon community, I'll also record a full behind-the-scenes in tracking all the other instruments in the song.

Lyrics:

Here lies the remains of a life,
Nothing to show for it, nothing worth dying.
Slow creep turns the bones back to white,
every thought, memory, dream lost to time.

Born, raised, not a thought to the day,
Living in kindness, in anger, in play.
Laughter on her face in the fray,
Love took his hand and he said, "Come what may."

Yeah, there's no denying
Here, most of our time in this world
Is not living or dying.

Strong step, with a fire in his chest,
Climbing each hill as if another conquest.
Some part of him knew he was blessed.
Swore that the grave would never see him rest.

Shadows growing long from the sun,
Felt in his marrow the end had begun.
Raged at all that remained unsung,
Cursed at the tide that swept two and took one.

Yeah, there's no denying
Here, most of our time in this world
Is not living or dying.

Last breath where the land meets the sea,
Drifted like leaves from the branch of the tree.
Here lies the remains of we,
Nothing to show for it, utterly free.

----

Thanks for listening.
