Click the image to listen/download “Hatchback” for free

Remember the 1980’s music that had excellent orchestration and outstanding vocals? That’s what “Hatchback” reminds me of when I listen to IMMOOR’s latest single.

Yet although this tune has a retro-feel, the effects and precision as well as production value makes you wanna pump the volume to room-bending levels.

The song has full and space-saving interlude with words like, “away” which float around while slipping a bassline into the mix without taking prisoners. Did I mention you can download this song for free on Bandcamp?

If IMMOOR’s new album is anything like Hatchback, then we’re seeing a different direction in IMMOOR’s music from “She Moves.” The dance vibe has been superseded by an electronic melancholy that has been perked up by a positive experience. Come to think of it, this has a different feel from the tracks from the “Concrete Boots EP” as well. That one was a little more ‘heady’ and internal. This song definitely feels like a song that would be perfect to share with friends and buddies.

Just in case you want to preview the song “Hatchback” before your preview it on Bandcamp…I embedded it below.

LYRICS: 

***INTRO***

33 degrees north

One Eighteen West

(rest)

It all started with a land grant

and a little bit of citrus

-DROP IT

*** VERSE ONE *** **a**

Population of 83K
-but it didn’t always happen to Be-this-way

Contemplation salvation on bales of hay
-better check the harvest before it’s May

bloody war,
-and a serious attack

and a couple hundred bucks,
-from the Homestead Act.

Double check respect
-better watch your back

Swinging walnut trees
-behind the shack

***b***

no room to boom
-no glockenspiel

Gerken’ kept the peace
-and he sealed the deal

The first Police chief
-he dropped the funk for real

There’s plenty of places,
-to get a good meal

==

So I walk to the party
-take a look at all the peeps

The stage is getting rowdy
-and my bag just got delete

But that’s ok
-I took a nap on a bench

Regen’ a little bit
-let my mind undrench

***c***

There’s serious damage
-and a broken mic stand

People getting really nervous
-not trusting the band

Tempers a flarin’
-threats being made

‘n’ I’m wearing the armor
-made out of the fade

=

So I talk to a friend
-and he asks how I’m doin’

Best seat in the house
-if you can see what I’m viewing

Then the energy changes
-from blue to hostile

Decide to take my exit
-and zip my textile

=

On the way out
-I saw an old friend

He didn’t look good
-got a little too bent

So I leaned down
-and asked, “You need a ride?”

Sure, in a bit,
-maybe later tonight

=

Man, I think I’m bouncing,
-I’m not digging the vibe

Go ahead and leave without me,
-I will be all right

Then, on the lawn,
-he sat in a fog

Angry at something,
-gazing at the urban bog

**CHORUS**

33…. One Eighteen

We got friends here

33… One Eighteen

We Got Friends Here

***VERSE TWO***

Next day,
-while working on a beat

A friend asked,
-to bail ’em ‘lete

Locked?
-are you kidding me?

Does it look like I’m running,
-some kind of charity?

==

A penny earned,
-now nine in debt

I’m staring at the screen,
-numerical regret

I dug this hole,
-I burnt that bridge

Never waited a second,
-never yielded a smidge

==

But all along,
-friends in 33

Good old Greenleaf,
-supporting me

Sending words of wisdom,
-make you think and laugh

These guys are the branch,
-of my walking staff

==

It don’t matter if you ‘ressive,
-or have a grey beard

This town is impressive,
-well oiled and geared

Be inspired,
-by a walk-and-sing

Or seeing pub crawls,
-what the zombies bring

==

It all got real,
-when at city hall

A man walked in,
-he was ten feet tall

But the height wasn’t body,
-not made out of flesh

Potent energy,
-it was positively manifest

==

From then on,
-I was hooked for sure

Stayed in contact,
-took a virtual tour

Need a little citrus,
-so I ate an orange

Dropped my baggage,
-at the public storage

==

But I had to return,
-to the 33

Some ‘zens stole my car,
-straight away from me

It was my fault,
-I must have dropped my keys

Last time I used the pockets,
-of that hoodie

==

Got a call from the cops,
-they found the sedan

Picking it up,
-it was traumatic, aw man

They trashed the interior,
-and stole my sub woof

And lined the seats,
-with one-hundred-proof

==

Every time I got,
-in the driver’s seat

I remember little pieces,
-of one-eighteen

The bass not as loud,
-the mid not as thick

The tires squeak a bit,
-on the oil slicks

==

Those kids took a ride,
-they were crazy fellas

Not surprised if they end,
-at Fred C. Nelles

But I’m glad I went,
-and I’ll go again

For its star has just,
-begun to ascend

**CHORUS**

33…. One Eighteen

We got friends here

33… One Eighteen

We Got Friends Here

Relaxatron 5000 - Click to listen

There are many websites that have interesting soundscapes for people to listen to. But a website titled,  “Nature Sounds for Me” has a tool where you can create your own custom nature sounds. One is able to mix four different nature sounds. Once you pick the sounds, you can adjust volume, panning and also the frequency interval for the sounds to play (timing). I created my own nature soundscape called the, RELAXATRON 5000. It has a mix of a snowstorm, a mellow beach, a thunderstorm and an intermittent creek. It is quite soothing and I hope you are able to use it for relaxation and enjoyment. The cool thing is that if you have the latest version of Flash Player, you can actually download the relaxation sounds yourself and convert them into mp3 if you like and put it on an iPod or other MP3 player. It is very easy to make your own relaxing mixes, and there are several different sounds to choose from, including rain, birds, grasshoppers and even whales.

You can listen to the Relaxatron 5000 by clicking HERE.
