Music Track Ocean Drive — Listen Now

music track ocean drive

Music track Ocean Drive is available for your listening pleasure. Whoo.

Click the link/image below to listen. Music track Ocean Drive is 3:23 in length.

Ocean Drive is based on a hazy memory of a looping late night/early morning drive along the Southern California coast. Industrial lights just off the coast reflected on the waves. It felt so warm and comforting, seeing those lights and the ocean crashing from the distance of a roadway. It was like a cozy blanket and the friends with me were quiet and serene as we looked at the forever sea before us. The opening line attempts to capture that: “Late at night, feel the lights, they’re raining down on me…”

This is for anyone who wants to pull the warm sonic covers over their head and dream of a time where they felt complete, accepted, at one with the world and in awe of the beauty around you. I can only hope you are feeling that right now or experience it for a little while with the song.

Music Track Ocean Drive Lyrics

late at night

feel the lights

they’re raining down on me

a broken shore

reflecting more

the waves tumbling towards me

they’re beckoning

lost in dreams

following my heart

now that you’re here

feel so near

don’t let it slip away

stop playing with me heart

don’t ever take my dream

let me breathe it in

don’t ever leave again

this ocean drive

leads out to sea

you’ve saved a place for me

i’ll sit awahile

and take my time

the haze envelopes me

Electronic Dance Pop “Massive”

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 

I hold you one last time

we lived inside a cinema the world a movie score

and before the credits start to roll

 you’re walking out the door

dance-pop please imagine

Original dance-pop track “Please Imagine” is up.

Please enjoy this original dance-pop track.

LYRICS

Please Imagine
What if there was… one of us all alone in the world
Lost in the moment now slip away to the words
please imagine a world free of fear young at heart are shouting we are here
here in the silence now drift away to the sounds
you are the stars at night lighting up a dark sky
please imagine a world free of fear young at heart are shouting (now) we are here
it always takes me back to you drawing halos in the sun
imagine your world free of fear and everyone is shouting we are here

Emotional Dance Music – Remember Where We Are

Remember Where We Are

Emotional Dance Music Remember Where We Are

Emotional Dance Music Remember Where We Are is a song about mixing the worlds of hope and reality.

Hope and reality are (to me) always seemingly at odds. Remember Where We Are is about navigating the worlds of staying grounded and looking up.

Remember Where We Are — p.m.warner

Emotional Dance Music — Remember Where We Are is a struggle I face often. First things first, it was Gabriel & Dresden who first termed their flavor of EDM as Emotional Dance Music. I am borrowing it from them. It expresses the music I am trying to create. More and more as I find my voice, I am less inclined towards trying to emulate upbeat bangers – that I really enjoy! Instead finding a place to reflect while not resorting to navel gazing. A song, to me, still has to have a great beat.

I hope you enjoy this song. I am continuing to work on production values and create emotional dance music that connects. Thank you for listening.

Emotional Dance Music – Remember Where We Are – Lyrics

Don’t have to say its cold outside

this place is petrified

but its not safe inside 

my head
I used to drink it all away my friend

until the pain subsided

until i saw the end 

hold on

look up to the stars 

wake up where you are

we’re all here for life 

together (we go far)

Holding onto fear again

its just you and I 

we don’t have to lie 

for nothing

Another quiet moment in the night

no we don’’t have to fight

we’ll just wake up again 

its over

look up to the stars 

remember where you are

well we’re all here for life 

together (we go far) 

soon we’ll become stars

fall in love with all

it goes fast my friend

no matter who you are 

well, I’ll keep holding down my end

until the hurting ends 

until we’re back again

it’s time to hit send

Original Dance Single: Quiet Now

Quiet Now by pmwarner

Original dance single — Quiet Now

Original dance single Quiet Now is a breakthrough from a production perspective. I prefer to use multiple instruments, which can become problematic when separating into their own spaces. You can easily get what is known as mud. And worst of all, vocals can get lost in the mix. The lyrics were important in this one (below) so I worked hard on making the vocals clear and understandable and keeping all the instruments in their own space. I really hope you enjoy. I think this is one of my best efforts ever.

I don’t know that there’s much to say about this original dance single. “Quiet Now” pretty much speaks for itself through the lyrics and instrumentation. I wanted to hold to my style and include a dance beat, but at the same time create a reflective mood, one that we might want to stay in a little longer.

Original Dance Single — Quiet Now Lyrics

The other side of midnight

Where light won’t find a way

Embrace a perfect moment

While waiting for the day

A way

Away

Wrapped in holy silence

Where we can’t always stay

The universe will tell you

Much more than you can say

Enveloped by the quiet now

And when the sun comes up

We’re praying that the silence holds

While all the stars fade out

A way

Away

The universe will tell you

Much more than you can say

A way

Away

Enveloped by the quiet now

And when the sun comes up

We’re praying that the silence holds

While all the stars fade out (x2)
