Concept art for July CD package

This work in progress is for a project tentatively titled July. My hope is complete and release a six song album by September. The songs will be available to listen to and download online. I also hope to prepare a DVD featuring dual audio tracks for switching between an acoustic version and a fully instrumented, 5.1 surround mix version, along with whatever audio/visual goodies I can manage to produce. Who knows, there might even be a music video Derek Olson and I having discussed making via Dirty Sprocket. But just getting the audio version done is a pretty ambitious goal for me.

In the meantime, I hope you enjoy these working versions. All are in various stages of arrangement, editing and recording. No live vocals or non-virtual instruments or performances have been added yet. However, most of the virtual instrumentation heard here will remain as part of the full version.

A third and final component of the July project will be a live performance version, which, if it manifests, will be arranged substantially different.

ALBUM: July (Working title) - 2009

Verse 1
Daily Reminder
Six weeks, the challenger gone
She waits for a hero
Ignores him, to shy to come on

Then who is going to save us he’s the first to life the standard
While the others say he’s crazy, or just some kind of joke
Now he’s standing on the front line facing full force mass invasion
With the holy Fortran bible and a bottle of Coke

He’s got no defense
Just delusion
One sharp breath and
We watch him stumble now.

Chorus 1
Maybe just a run of bad luck
he can’t quite recover
Okay, so he did it for love
That’s one more disaster

Verse 2
Begs for the rematch
Come Monday, he knows he’ll be strong
He’ll turns to his sensei
The one man who know what went wrong

As the code got more engaging he got wick fast amazing
When the state solid goes sparking he just quickens the pace
No she never saw him coming, he gave her so much warning
Through the ozone and smoke now like a slap to the face

8 bits but
not much glory
Near victory
they most deride him now

Chorus 2
Maybe just a run of good luck
Some trick he’s uncovered
Okay, so he did it for love
That’s one more disaster

Chorus 3
Okay, so he did it for love
That’s one more disaster
Okay, so he did it for love
That’s one less disaster
