Recently I discovered this amazing guitarist from the Netherlands, Sekko, who mixes jangly guitars with hip hop beats. I wanted to make something inspired by that vibe. The verse guitar part came together quickly, then I added a second part that ended up feeling optimistic and cheery.

I'd been sitting on a lyrical idea for the past week and used it here. The chorus had such an uplifting feel that it reminded me of the final lines from Battlestar Galactica, so I paraphrased them to fit the song.

I kept the melody simple because I'm recovering from a head cold and my voice isn't 100%. I sang softly and let the guitars do the heavy lifting.

The mix and master are all messed up. I have no idea what I'm doing. 😱 #ambient #guitar #pop #hiphop #atmospheric #vocals

Verse 1

Never liked him Don’t support them It’s so tragic Problematic

Hate infested Truth molested What a disgrace Masked without shame

Chorus

All of this we’ve seen But the question is Does all this Have to happen again?

Verse 2

For the record I will enter Opposition To their mission

Dying whimpers Fading embers It will crumble Into rubble
