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 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
