I really like this one !
It was the first track where I tried doing something vocally. I had borrowed a Roland VP330 from a music shop and a Tascam 3340 from a friend. It was also done in a different house,an 1860s stone cottage which leads to the slightly eerie tone.

lyrics

Dead men, dead men lie on my pillow, babe
And I, I just cant understand
Why they, they beckon me to follow, yeah
And I, I have the urge to go.

Pretty maids, pretty maids stand in cloisters of love
But I, I just deny
Cause they, cause they look at me knowingly
And their skin fades to grey.


Fades to grey.

Solo (Jupiter 8)
Solo (VP 330)

Dead men, dead men lie on my pillow ,babe
But I just, I just turn away
Turn and turn away.

Solo (VP 330)

Dead men, Dead men rpt

JohnNy MoNyman QLD, Australia

Welcome to the Works series of my Electronic World !
None of this music has been professionally recorded but it represents what I was doing in these places and times in my life.
It charts the rise and fall of the digital synth and how the new sounds influenced the music that was made. A technological synth history lesson.
Enjoy the ride !
