Two Speed by TheGat(s) published on 2021-07-21T23:29:24Z Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander Not being a drummer or having access to a collaborating drummer very often I have been moving away from using the Logic Pro virtual drummer and playing the drum grooves on my keyboard. I have to admit it has given me added respect for the art as it is not easy (at least for me) to keep a consistent beat even for a few bars. For this I used the Vintage Breaks+ drum kit, but to get the deep sound applied the Space D reverb, which I then also used to give the same overall sound to all the stems. The bass is a Logic Baby Bass treated with a Full Stack guitar amplifier. For the vocal in the chorus I used a reverse Space D reverb to achieve the ghostly effect. Lyrically I think this song speaks for itself. TWO SPEED There’s vintage and new All kinds and looks On this brand new two speed highway I can see you clearly You’re holding on and dearly There’s a clear road ahead Slipping into 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th There’s a lane you can choose instead Letting go, letting go I’ll pass you by Why don’t you even try I want to love you I want to hold you I can’t wait for you Makes me wanna cry Stay away from you I’m afraid of you Unless you help yourself Take good care of yourself And love yourself Unless you help yourself Take good care of yourself And love yourself So much more than you and me Can’t slip into he said, she said, we said, they said A shiny city on a hill I wanna get there, you wanna get there Free flowing air Full speed ahead, but To be close to you Spend time with you I’m breaking free I wish that you could see I can’t love you I can’t trust you Unless you help yourself Take good care of yourself And love yourself Help yourself Good care of yourself And love yourself Genre Alternative Rock Comment by David. k.

Good for you, Jan. The big thumps is almost mystical...keys are mint and all a fine foundation for you to add your muse, vocally. :) 2022-10-29T10:01:57Z Comment by Tony's Lyrics Wonderful work on this upload! 2022-09-18T00:33:06Z Comment by Mountain Man reposts Great song, lyrics and production...the drums give such a suspenseful dynamic.
