(is she real, is she real)

O green world,
Don't desert me now
Bring me back to fallen town
Where someone is still alive

You're on your own (when you begin)
To sing a song (that doesn't sing)
And it grows (hey, you know)

And they're turning us into monsters
Turning us into fire
Turning us into monsters
It's all desire (it's all desire)

Fighting for something new in this (is she real, is she real)
When no one needs the heart of me and I'll
Get out somewhere other than me before...

(is she real, is she real)

Got off the plane to the country sound (without the truth to the eyes)
I drove to the mountain and a hole in the ground (hiding out in holes)
There was crack on the corner and someone dead (is she real, is she real)
and fire coming out of the monkey's head

Put me in a cab to suburbia (snatch a piece of my wondering)
I just took a line but it wasn't with you (it's my mistake, i'll make it)
There was more of it there, when I got back home (i just took a line)
But you had left me, you don't know my soul... (is she real, is she real)

I saw that day, (something's starting today)
Lost my mind (where did he go?)
Lord, I'm fine (where you wanted to be)
Maybe in time (you know, november has come)
You'll want to be mine (is she real, is she real)

Something's starting today
Where did he go? why you wanted to be?
Well you know, november has come
When it's gone away..

In these demon days (it's so cold inside)
So hard for a good soul to survive (is she real, is she real)
You can't even trust the air you breathe (because mother earth wants us all to leave)

Dreams aren't bad,
I had turned back
I love the girl (is she real, is she real)
But God only knows it's
Getting hard to see the sun coming through
I love you...
But what are we going to do?

Sinking soul
There you are
Doesn't make side to
But it won't be long
Cause kids with guns
Kids with guns
Easy does it, easy does it, they got something to say no to

Picture I'm a dreamer
I'll take you deeper
Down to the sleepy glow
Time is a low..
Don't you know?
What are we going to do?

And they're turning us into monsters
Turning us into fire
Turning us into monsters
It's all desire

When you go back
All the second selfless days
You're in love with him
I want to see you again
I love you...
But what are we going to do?

So pick yourself up, it's a brand new day
So turn yourself round
Don't burn yourself, turn youself
Turn yourself around
To the sun!

my huge gorillaz project before i move to other things. the goal is to manage to mix every single song on demon day (excluding d-sides) into one megamix.

the template is hardly finished and a lot will change, but suggestion would still be awesome

this is even trickier since they made their own sampler, but that one's simple cut and paste, i want to josh this all into one song.
Started out considering Deltron vs Gorillaz.

Drafting a timeline, not editing anything at all:


Went back in and dumped most the tracks, cut it for the idea it wanted to be anyway, which was a mix of Kids with Guns and Fire Coming Out Of A Monkey's Head. Now it's basically a completely different project altogether. Funny how that works sometimes.

Cutting it down to the quick, new draft, simple transitions, sound manipulation:


Next, I get to go in and decide whether it speaks for itself, or if it needs some fanciful embellishments.

creative processes are fun?
I started fucking around with this awhile ago, but it just wasn't working. Up to 1:12 only needs some volume envelopes balanced. The rest has 30 second spots that I am satisfied with sparsed between 'well, THAT is a rough draft'. Really, I should stop being annoyed at myself because this was my second serious attempt at a project. Still. When something isn't working, you get down to the basics.

The problem with what I did instead is that each half by itself is what I wanted, but apparently I developed an entirely different idea today as to how I wanted to do it than last night. But I had fun with it, it just needs some sore spots smoothed over before it can be finished.

Suggestions for either, comments, would be awesome. :D <3

I think it may all be in the draft. The problem with the first is I just made it up as I went along. The second had a template that was only vagually followed in the end, but it still helped a lot.

Maybe I'll tear out all the crap in the Black Parade mix then write a template. I guess that'll work.
MCR/Black Parade megamix! 75% done, need to fix some transitions/bad volume spots. Constructive criticism would be awesome. :D Acid Pro fucked up all the rendering and ruined a lot of stuff. If you heard it already THAT'S NOT WHAT IT'S SUPPOSED TO SOUND LIKE D:

I will fix this later.

Put to task:

(gorillaz)Money for the Free-> 50%
(mcr/black parade)Dancing Bones-> 65%
(shiny toy guns)Mall Rescue 101-> 5%
(various)Pop Star Battle Arena-> 25%
Last night's experiment was as thus: write lyrics as they come through, things around you, words that pop up suddenly (even quotations) and make them all fit together with as little editing as possible.

I've been screwing around with Sonic Acid Pro 4.0. Yesterday I created what I think the inside of (milliways)Kaworu's head sounds like. Today I started to work seriously on my first project. I'm doing another with Shiny Toy Guns, but that one's far from posting, yeah :)

No name yet, but here it is. It's only a template right now - any blank spot or odd transitions are going to be adjusted later. I'm replacing Sound Check (Gravity) with Demon Detour: El Mañana. Might twist a bit of another Demon Detour live, 'Clint Eastwood (Live - feat. De La Soul & Bootie Brown)' and a mic soldier riff. We'll see what happens, eh?

The template is basic, but hopefully I can make it sound good.
