I've never heard the timba track so I trusted it was yours. but it does work.

 

I think it sounds pretty good, but I'm still struggling with the mixdown and mastering, I don't have much experience with that. A while ago I couldn't finish anything, I kept getting stuck in an 8 bar loop, but I've learned to finish as many tracks as possible, even if they don't all sound equally good, because if I hang around for too long and keep repeating parts of the track, it quickly gets boring, so you have to put something down as quickly as possible.

 

This started as a love song, then it got twisted. My inspiration stems from NDW, eastern block melancholic post punk and a comic I read as a teenager about the pure all consuming evil, that somehow manifested on a spaceship, ready to infest the world. The story goes, that as soon as the spaceship lands, pure evil will infest the worlds, with no way to stop it. The evil even lures the pilot with visions of might, making fun of the human existence, before all ends. It seems hopeless, you get drawn into a situation with no escape and no power. Not only my young mind was suprised by what happend next, but the demon in the story as well. The pilot chose not to land the ship, but rather to self destruct. Finding a way to steer the fate of everything on their own terms. And the pilot was a women, I think it wouldn’t and shouldn’t have mattered which gender was the saviour, but it somehow did.

On a serious note, in many aspects women are systematically in a position of less power. A song won‘t change that, but the notion of hope rather than the lack thereoff goes a long way. It does not have to be a singular action to solve inequality of chances, but a vision of a better togetherness carried by the many will be as good as, maybe even better.

Lyrics:

Das helle Licht erreicht mich nicht.
Die Dunkelheit sie macht sich breit.

Und wenn es dann zu Ende geht, dann sprech ich dir noch ein Gebet.
Das handelt dann von einer Zeit, da waren ich und du bereit.

Das helle Licht, es blendet mich.
Ich seh nur eins, ich seh nur dich.

Das helle Licht, es blendet mich.
Ich seh nur eins, ich seh nur dich.

Ich reich die Hand, du greifst sie dir.
Zusammen sind wir Fantasie.

Ich reich die Hand, du greifst sie dir.
Zusammen sind wir Fantasie.
