Zero iOS on this one, I'm afraid. Basically, it's all Arturia V Collection. Bass: Juno 60, Chords: Jupiter 8, Lead: MS20, Strings: Solina.
Boy there’s a lot of words in this thread… I just enjoyed it for what it is, a great piece of music 🙏
Like @Stochastically I picked up on ‘ Gentle rabid calf, Nibbling at the heart’.. a memorable line but worthy of the utter nonsense that Jon Anderson comes up with e.g. ‘A seasoned witch could call you from the depths of your disgrace, And rearrange your liver to the solid mental grace’… what’s all that about ?
Somebody else mentioned Sade and I definitely get that…
Great work 👌
I would lose my mind if Arturia brought those to iOS but I don’t see it happening. They sound amazing though!
I agree. I don't usually analyze things so much, but I don't mind it with this song.
Ha! Yes, several people have focused on just that line! I love the line. In fact, when I got to that point in the song and needed to figure out where to go next, it may have been the memory of that line which stuck with me from 40 years earlier and motivated me to try to recycle the fragmentary long lost bits of a song from the 80s.
I love the metaphor and think it is the perfect image for this point in the song. An inner hunger, child-like in both its need and demands, and rabid in its urgency. At this point in the song, they’ve met on the first night in the Village, each gone their separate ways back to Brooklyn and Queens, but the hunger to reunite is "nibbling at the heart." You can’t concentrate all day at work. All you can think about is getting to the next weekend to be together again.
The more mysterious line is the following line, “Chinese fireworks keeping us apart.” But New York is so that way. There are always these things that you stumble into that get in your way, some street fair or something and suddenly you are in a whole different universe than you were a few blocks ago, and get diverted from your original destination or plans. Or maybe there are some Romeo-Juliet, West Side Story kind of rules preventing the lovers from being together.
Then there is the line “Trains full of nothing at all.” So many times I’ve felt that feeling.. You’re riding in a subway train, crowded with people but it might as well be completely empty. Especially if the protagonist is deep in some obsession over the beloved, who seems to eclipse everything else in the whole world. The people, the train, the city, are completely indifferent to you and your dreams, and would just as soon run over you and go on without you.
And on and on.. I could go on forever with different possible interpretations.. But even though it was just a few lines, I feel really lucky to have a poet of this level to contribute to this song. It was just what I needed at that point. If I didn't have those lines, I would have tried to write something similar, but it wouldn't have been as good.
I think I read in an interview that Jon Anderson said that sometimes Yes lyrics were just words that sounded good together. It works great for their material. I always thought of it as kind of verbal versions of their surreal Roger Dean cover art.
Yes, I think Arturia has only done a few iOS apps. I have iSEM and iSpark, both of which are great! I think there is also an iMini (which I used to have I thought, but now can't seem to find on my iPad) and an iProphet VS. They sound great, and even though they haven't been updated in ages, I just tested and they seem to be working fine on latest iOS.
Listened to this piece 3 times already. Liked it even more after watching the video. Great job!!
Yep I have all except iSpark and I agree they’re all great. I’m hoping they’ll come back to iOS eventually. Even if just port a couple from the collection. (Or even update iProphet to AUV3, that’s a great sounding synth)
I can definitely relate. The last song I finished and uploaded was started two years ago. The guts of the track was all there, I tried working on it multiple times until I finally worked out where I wanted it to go. Once I know where I'm going with a track it actually goes very quickly. They don't usually take me quite that long, but I have older bits of songs I think I will finish one day.
Lyrics definitely adds an extra level of difficulty. The combination of trying tell the story in the limited number of syllables, and make the vowels singable, and make it rhyme, and... Can be like trying to solve a rubik's cube to get it all to line up, sometimes.
