Trespass (Usagi, Geist collaboration 1)

Geist's picture

(Lyrics by Usagi.

Percussion, Piano, bass, mixing by Geist.

Please listen to this one as a lead-in to 'Depressed', the next one that I am working on recording the lyrics for. Damn family members, staying around the house all the time.

Hope you enjoy.

-Geist)

Even though the human race is completely insignificant in the grand scheme of things, what matters is what we think matters, and that's our few thousand years of human existence. That's the world we live in, the reality we accept as our own.

Perhaps we'll do something.

Perhaps we'll do nothing.

When we die, the lives of anyone else won't matter anymore.

In the end, it won't make a difference either way.

We're just-

just-

trespassing.

I completely did not expect

I completely did not expect this. Wow.

Your vocal talent is, as usual, impressive. What're the "ksh" sounds at the beginning?

Geist's picture

Yours truly.

Yours truly.

Have you ever seen Hyannis Sound?

I saw them earlier this year, and they could just make any sort of sound they wanted to, just using their voice.

I've been practicing that.

No, never

No, never heard of them. Will look up.

Have you ever listened to

Have you ever listened to The Books (MM turned me onto them and I believe GG once posted a video of theirs because of her as well)? This reminds me of them... You should check them out.

Geist's picture

No, I haven't. And I will.

No, I haven't.

And I will.

That was mesmerizing

I just there, in front of the screen, listening to this song of yours... it was incredible... I couldn't move. It's a great mix of scary and, well, scary.
