I wrote this lyric a little while ago and had an idea for the hook being a synthesised robot type of voice, but I wasn’t sure how to pull this off using my sonic arsenal. I was looking for a sort of auto-tune effect, but I don’t have the cash for that kind of software. So when Native Instruments released “The Mouth” plugin for Reaktor 5, I knew I would be able to pull off the effect I was looking for.
So here is this song. It a little swipe at the Twitter generation and the Internet in general. Oh, bite the hand, etc. No – I just think there’s an awful lot of tripe out there, mainly coming from Twitter, which has undermined the artform that was blogging. Why write artful prose when you can say that you had corn flakes for breakfast and still stay within your character limit.
Enjoy!

You Are Allowed to Enjoy This…
21st century
New morality
No time to worry
About the consequences
Do what you want
Do what you feel
It’s OK
Because none of this is real
You are allowed to enjoy this
You are allowed to enjoy this
You are allowed to enjoy this
You are allowed to enjoy this
Steal what’s not real
Live a yourself lie
Share your secrets
In a virtual world
Say what you want
Say how you feel
Shout into the void
‘Cos none of this is real
You are allowed to enjoy this
You are allowed to enjoy this
You are allowed to enjoy this
You are allowed to enjoy this
Report every thought
Like you are important
I know you
Better than you know yourself
Don’t sit on the fence
Have an opinion
Who cares what you think
‘Cos none of this is real
You are allowed to enjoy this
You are allowed to enjoy this
You are allowed to enjoy this
You are allowed to enjoy this
21st century
New morality
Nobody knows
What is right anymore
Indulge yourself
Expose yourself
Destroy yourself
‘Cos none of this is real
