Been meaning to post the latest dance pop single “Hold the Line’ for a while now. Don’t know why I held it back for so long.
Oh well…
Hold the Line — Dance Pop Track
Don’t have a lot to say about this dance pop single. I like it, it was just difficult to bring forward and figure out where the tempo was. I say low-key because it finally feels that that’s where it landed. Everything else felt too fast. This feels almost laid back
Electronic dance pop original “Massive” was fun to make. Not easy, but fun.
Played it for someone, and she said, “Oh that sounds so… ’80s.” I certainly don’t try to reference a certain genre or time period in my music, but I am certainly influenced by what I call the great awakening of music in my life. In a time when American pop was stale and tired (to my ears anyway) New Order, Depeche Mode and so many others came along and completely turned my world upside down. It was so different than Bruce and Madonna. Wonderfully different.
So electronic dance pop can mean so many things to folks. I love the music made today, but I certainly can’t help that these first electronic bands that paved the way still don’t have sway over my creative approach. Anyway, here’s the song. I’d love for you to give it a listen.
Electronic Dance Pop Original “Massive”
Is it possible to completely escape what you have heard when it comes to song creation? I don’t think so. I have to continue to listen to a lot of different artists and continue to learn from them. I certainly don’t want to always continue repeating something that has already been heard/done before.
The term electronic dance pop is limited, but for the sake of defining it for those who haven’t heard it before, I will continue to try to use words to describe music. Others can do this much, much better than me.
Again, I hope you enjoy and please feel free to get in touch with any questions. My email is here.
Electronic Dance Pop Original “Massive” Lyrics
(Before you fade away, before you become melody
you’re gonna break my heart) it’s not a distant memory
were captured from the start
played our roles til epilogue
a few acts fell apart projecting image on a screen
for a theater of one
the last reel is a desert scene
where i’m choking on the dust
you call cut…
before you drift away, before you become memories
i need to say goodbye before you break my heart before you light fire to our scenes
Dance pop song – Just Listen came about after an encounter that forced me to rethink a lot of things. I consider myself a sensitive person, someone who takes in and even feels a lot of the surroundings, and do my best to add context to my day to day interactions. After one in particular, I realized I wasn’t as adept at this as I thought. and the dance pop song Just Listen was born.
Just Listen – p.m.warner
For a little more behind how dance pop song Just Listen came about, I have to make a confession. I’m not as good at communicating as I thought. And in this case, communicating wasn’t what was needed. I don’t like to see people hurting and offered advice or what I thought were solutions before I realized that this person just needed someone to listen — to hear her concerns and have an outlet. I had a hard time with that because that’s exactly what this person needed and I was oblivious. Until a few hours later when I realized that sometimes I just need to “shut up and listen.” That’s the song’s chorus. It’s not being said to anyone else but myself.
Dance pop can be a funny thing. Many think of it as a light and fluffy song form, whereas I really look at it as an opportunity to explore the areas of life we can’t just talk about in everyday conversation. Loneliness, depression, bullying, suicide, isolation, substance abuse. All these things I know many grapple with daily and the areas I need to explore in my music.
On another note, sorry about inserting dance pop at random areas in the conversation. SEO.
Dance Pop – Just Listen – Lyrics
Well this is a song for the lonely
And this is a song if you’re down
This is to say i’m listening
cause we’re all here now
oh we’ve all been lonely
and we’ve even been afraid
We’ve also all felt helpless
Thinking no one hears the pain
Shut up and and listen
just shut up and listen
please shut up and listen
Not saying this is easy
i’m not saying fade away
Just saying that i’m listening
Only saying it’s ok
But I’ll be here waiting….for the day…
Shut up and listen
just quiet and listen…to the pain
This is a song for the lonely…it’s ok to be afraid
Dance pop single “Honestly” is a straight up, three minute 129 BPM song I hope you enjoy. I didn’t know what to think of it during its creation. I’m still not sure of it, but I’m putting it out there anyway.
“Honestly” by p.m.warner
Dance pop single “Honestly” started out with too much thinking. I sometimes wonder if I think or care too much sometimes. Every now and then the introspection results in feeling bad about something that may or may not be a true reflection of what actually happened, as memories can be deeply flawed. And sometimes, I would encourage you to take a look at at what you’re thinking or feeling and honestly assess whether there’s anything else that can be done to resolve the issue. If not, then maybe it’s time to let it go. Maybe it’s time to not let it have such a hold anymore! That’s the basis for the song.
Dance Pop Single “Honestly” Lyrics
Honestly
Well it’s been too many years
now since I loved to play the game
It’s OK to be so honest but
it hurts me all the same
All the voices in my head
will tell me I’m the one to blame
Well this sounds a little
crazy but it’s credit to your aim
It’s so easy to get up there
and rent space inside my head
By acknowledging the thoughts
that should be left behind for dead
Now we’re feeding the emotions
I don’t really care to dredge
Just a broken way of thinking
that I’ll push down to the end
Now…
If you’re tired of the past
controlling everything you do
Then I’m sure you’ll
understand this if you’re ready for the truth
That your time is well worth
standing for the things you need to say
In the end we open up our arms
to lives we want today
Well…Honestly
I should not care at all
Honestly
I turn away
It’s been way too many years
now and you loved to play the game
It’s OK to be so honest but
it hurts you all the same
All the voices in your head
will say that you’re the one to blame
And I know that its not easy
but you don’t deserve the shame
End of Yesterday is a new dance pop song. It is a brisk track acknowledging the past and embracing the present.
The past will always be there. Sometimes it’s hard to deal with, especially when alone or at night. This song is meant to shed light on those feelings and reveal them for what they are. It’s important to move on, but at the same time, without acknowledging some of the pain, it’s very hard to heal. I hope you enjoy the song. It is a good dance pop song that adheres to something I’ve always leaned into, “dancing with tears in my eyes” It isn’t an original idea – Ultravox came up with this a long time ago.
