about

A textural song, moody. One night I sat in the studio for two hours and just kept layering simple little keyboard melodies, loops and sounds on top of each other. I then edited out the superfluous ones. The lyrics are simple, relying on the texture. All about the resonance of sound, and mood, texture, beauty, landscape, a feast of analogue keyboards.

lyrics

ANTI-CHASE MUSIC 2 (Bridie)

Slow down your hurry, underscore
Bring it back a little, take it down one… no, even more
Glide down…easy does it…slowly you go
There’s a side shift, bring it on, slow you go, slow you go

There’s a buzz and a hum from the lights in the hall
The tap drips drip drip metal and small
I care for the small talk, there’s meaning you know
In the inconsequential

The soft breath sound as you fall off to sleep
The unanswered telephone rings out to the street
The noise in my head won’t leave me alone
The kids on the street, they play to the crowd

Slow down your hurry, underscore
Bring it back a little, take it down one… no, even more
Glide down… slowly you go
There’s a side shift, bring it on, slow you go, slow you go

So sing me an anthem
Stand up straight and tall
With shouldering arms, rise with the horns
And wait until the fall

The prayers, the fight, the law, and we march head on

The wind hums through the melaleuca tree
Here it comes now
The October breeze

And the way that you breathe, the finish of your words
The rain comes down slowly, you hear it soft at first
I care for the small talk, there’s meaning you know
Play some anti-chase music, sing it right down low

It’ll change your day
It’ll change your day
It’ll change your day
The inconsequential
