about

The seventh and final track of the album, Little Car seems to be the most poetic in lyrical content - I saw bukbot’s generations of these lines and was immediately inspired to craft this piece and complete the album. Little Car begins almost hauntingly, yet softly, with a pulsing undertone that carries through the whole piece. It is delicate as the melody picks up with the whistle countermelody, and due to the nature of the lyrics, it features several iterations of repetition in which the beginning of each melodic segment is echoed over itself with a beat of delay, until the final segment, which ends up echoing the line over itself 3 times for a total of 4 glockenspiels in the piece. The piece is deceptively simple yet altogether pleasing, and ends the album on just the right note. Interestingly enough, Little Car is identical in length to Wings.

The lyrics provided for this track are those generated by the tumblr bot @bukbot, which were converted into melody lines within the song.

lyrics

Little car, you can’t run away
Little car, you can’t just leave the earth’s past.
Little car, you can’t kiss anyone.
Little car, you can’t dance

My first album is a collaboration with a chicken-themed robot - that should effectively sum up my career from this point onwards.
