    Original Dance Pop Song – Last Sunset

    This original dance pop song took a while as I dug into some additional mixing and mastering techniques. The great thing is, I learned a lot and want to give a shout out to two really helpful producers you can find on Why Logic Pro Rules and Musician on a Mission. Both of these folks are great resources and I recommend them highly.

    I remixed and re-uploaded the track because it failed the crappy car stereo test. (Lesson learned – don’t just rely on your home studio speakers). If for some reason, the track doesn’t load below, you can find it here.

    NOTE: I have deleted again. Will re-upload when it is ready.

    About the original dance pop song. (I’m not absolutely certain of the genre really.) The idea was sparked as I watched a documentary about how the sun will eventually give out and it got me thinking that we all have a last sunset in our lives and to cherish the moments we have when we realize that. I take pictures of sunsets all the time where I live as they are particularly spectacular — and I believe that anyone can appreciate the beauty of a sunset wherever they are.

    I really hope you enjoy this original dance pop song – and I also hope you forgive my repeating the phrase incessantly. [The WordPress plugin tells me I need to do it.]

    LYRICS — LAst Sunset — An Original Dance Pop Song

    No such thing as tomorrow

    There’s nothing left to say

    We’re drifting in the silence

    And waiting on the day

    Not ready for an ending

    It wasn’t overlooked

    These changes happen quickly

    We tried the best we could

    Well I can only smile now

    At the silence of our past

    But everything’s forgiven

    We thought it would all last

    It’s time to take a deep breath

    As I try to understand

    The time we had together

    Was the best I ever had

    As we sit here by the ocean

    Watching stars fall into sea

    Don’t know what we’ve set in motion

    Is this the last sunset we’ll see?

    It’s time to say goodbye now

    Didn’t know it’d be so hard

    We’re watching the world shut down

    The earth beneath us scarred

    I’m over being hopeful

    And trying to begin

    Accepting it’s all over

    That the world’s at an end

    As we sit here by the ocean

    Falling stars from sea to sea

    Don’t know what we’ve set in motion

    Is this the last sunset we’ll see?

    Well As we sit here by the ocean

    While stars fall into sea

    I can only feel devotion

    To the memories we keep

    As we sit-here by the ocean

    Watching tears fall into sea

    When everything it feels so broken

    Is this the last song that we’ll sing

    As we sit here by the ocean

    Watching stars fall into sea

    Don’t know what we’ve set in motion

    The last sunset we’ll ever see

    Original Dance Pop Track: Stand Up

    Stand Up – an original dance pop track

    This new dance pop track Stand Up was a process! It was written as reminder that no matter how beaten down you feel (it happens a lot) it’s hard but so important to keep getting up and trying again. Even against the most impossible odds.

    On a technical note, I have been learning more and more about mixing and mastering and still know it’s only the tip of the iceberg. In another post, I will share some things I have been learning and other great sources of information I’ve come across.

    I hope you enjoy and please leave a comment below!

    LYRICS

    Lyrics for “Stand Up,” an original, dance pop track:

    Stand up where you are

    Keep reaching for the stars

    You know it feels so right

    You’re fighting for your life

    Here you are

    Feeling down

    Feeling like you’re about to drown

    Remembering

    Where you were

    What happened to the future?

    Held in place

    It’s no good

    Without a past misunderstood

    Questioning

    Your place here

    It’s so hard to live in fear

    We all want

    To play again

    To dance on beaches in the sun

    It’s all right

    To be afraid

    But not ok to give up again

    Ok now

    So stand up where you are

    We have to start somewhere

    Not going down alone

    You’re breaking out of here

    You feel trapped

    And starting now

    Remembering the cave and how

    Time to say

    No more pain

    Breaking out of molded shame

    And here you are

    Who are you?

    This is what you’re meant to do

    You have strength

    To break away

    And never fall back here again

    This is what

    You have to do

    Don’t stop now

    Cause lights in you

    It’s OK to be afraid

    Moving forward into change

    OK now

    So stand up where you are

    Never say too far

    You’re standing on your feet

    And listening to the beat

    So Stand up where you are

    It’ll never be too far

    You’re standing up right now

    Keep the vision in your heart

    You’re frozen

    Frozen in this place

    You’re frozen

    Froze in outer space

    Stand up where you are

    Never give up the stars

    When you’ve fallen down

    Get up off the ground

    Rise up where you are

    You’ve brought yourself this far

    You’re moving with the beat

    And dancing in the heat

    Stand up where you are

    Keep reaching for the stars

    You know it feels so right

    You’re fighting for your life

    New Song: The Calling

    Well… this one is interesting. I’m not quite sure what to think so I’ll just post it for you to listen to and leave it at that. Lyrics are below. In the future, I’ll add Bandcamp to the platforms used. Nothing wrong with Soundcloud or ReverbNation, just interested in seeing how it works in comparison.

    Other recent songs include:

    Hold On

    Satellite

    Turn the Music On

    and an older, but one of my favorites, Put it Down

    Another night outside a muted scene

    Ringing crowds that fade to gray

    Strain to hear above these lonely lies

    Unfiltered love you dared to dream

     

    Breathless moments as they drift away

    Lost in heaven’s open skies

    In the still, a distant siren’s call

    When solace fades, you hear it say

     

    Just remember we’re all broken

    You can always call on me

    When your love is like the ocean

    The current sweeps you out to sea

     

    The quiet moment where you felt alone

    Now you’re striving for your dreams

    But silence lingers on so patiently

    The darkest moments pull the seams

     

    But your love is like an ocean

    Your fears have drowned in deeper seas

    Anytime that you felt broken

    You could always call on me

     

    Remember your love is like an ocean

    The fears belong in deeper seas

    And anytime that you feel broken

    You can always call on me

    ~P
