Here is the premiere single off my 2023 EP Crystal Vistas, premiering right here on Newgrounds! I'll be releasing a new song every few days :) This track features a healthy mix of hardware Gameboy and Mega Drive. Thanks to Trash80 and Little-scale for their chiptune contributions :)
Lyrics:
Cold reflection, butterflies
I remember why I hardly fight
Would it seem that this isn't the change for me?
Now I see I might be at home
Take me back to a time when I
Had the reasons to be on this line
Would it seem now I can't see a chance for me?
All I feel is that I am at home
Take us to a promised place
Tell me you can see my face I'll believe you
Everytime you say my name
Speak it to the rising sun
Echoing on
Take me to a bright new land
Somewhere I can feel the sand
Under my feet
Everytime you say my name
Speak it to the rising sun
Echoing on
If you give me some space and air
There might be things you don't want to hear
Would it seem that we're drifting
Unravelling
Can't you see I am not at home
Take us to a promised place
Tell me you can see my face
I'll believe you
Everytime you say my name
Speak it to the rising sun
Echoing on
Take me to a bright new land
Somewhere I can feel the sand
Under my feet
Everytime you say my name
Speak it to the rising sun
Echoing on
Featuring Eleanore Forte (Synthesizer V) on vocals
This EP is a collection of seperate songs written during the last few years, they all seemed to align when I put them together. Crystal Vistas is a fictional city inspired by a VHS movie a friend put on called Robot Wars. The album concept is a soundtrack to visit an abandoned metropolis.
