Here is my take from Jan 30, 2025 of "Get It On" by T. Rex!

Here is an #original-song that I wrote on January 28, 2025! It is about the "Human Genre" which I believe will be a completely new genre of music in the coming years. Believe me, I do get the irony (hypocrisy, whatever you want to call it) of using AI generated artwork for a song about the human genre, but that is the way it is for now ;~)) I may ultimately do a hand written title on a blank canvas, but have not committed to that quite yet. This is probably take 15 or so of this song. I will be working on it a bit more, getting more comfortable with the phrasing and delivery and will probably officially release it in the next week or so! For now, here is my "demo" version! Do let me know what you think could be improved upon as I am only one set of ears. Keep in mind however, there will be no additional instruments added or anything like that, so that is not on the table for "improvements" ;~))

Human Genre


Human Genre - Copyright January 28, 2025 - ANO Publishing, LLC - All Rights Reserved

<Verse 1>
I am a human song
And you are welcome to sing along
You can make mistakes
Don't you worry bout the perfect take
Reach down and feel the vibe
And play to your soul's tribe
Sing out with your voice
Pluck some strings and make some noise
Maybe kick a skin
For the beat that your trippin' in

<Chorus>
I am the Human genre
While machines march on by
I am an enigma
While algorithms multiply
I am a creation
Of a human mind
I am reparations
For what we are leaving behind

<Verse 2>
I am human energy
Setting my feelings free
I am not new code
From a binary world so cold
I am a soul's cry of joy
I'm a primal instinct toy
Calling from deep inside
Listen to my instincts drive
Straight into the heart
Where the love of music starts

<Chorus>
I am the Human genre
While machines march on by
I am an enigma
While algorithms multiply
I am a creation
Of a human mind
I am reparations
For what we are leaving behind

<Bridge>
Let's play human
Such a fun game
Create your vision
And light a flame
In your soul
For all to see
Deliverin' your minds
Melodies

<Verse 3>
On vinyl I will live
To five senses I will give
Give my human touch
You may think not good enough
Well then go chase out your mind
Through the maze where they matricize
Alll your words and ways
And you'll be dreamin' of yesterdays
When every sound was real
And each had that human feel

<Chorus>
I am the Human genre
While machines march on by
I am an enigma
While algorithms multiply
I am a creation
Of a human mind
I am reparations
For what we are leaving behind

This is a spontaneous composition with 3 guitarists in the Ambient style. No overdubs. Lots of effects were used. It is long. You may enjoy listening to it while you are meditating or going to sleep. Headphones are suggested.

Thanks for participating Hush! Could you please edit your post and put either #original-song or #hot-noodle tag in there (whichever you think it is). I use such tags to ensure I do not miss any submissions that need to be counted ;~)) I have only listened to a couple of minutes of it, but it sounds lush!!

Not much, really.

A little Eventide H949 on the lead guitar track (7% mix).

Some Universal Audio reverb from the "Pure Plate" plugin.

Not sure if it is a hot noodle? Maybe cold noodle? It is definitely an original but it's not really a song. I'll put hot-noodle... but am willing to be convinced otherwise.

I'm using a Helix, but have 2 small boards in the loops. At some point you will hear me add a Night Sky, Specular Tempus and an SY-300. The other guys have large boards with many pedals that I don't remember too well. I know on Ted's board are a TC Triple delay, Microcosm and a Red Panda Raster. The other guy I only remember a Pigtronix Ecolution 2, but he had many other cool pedals. I'll see if I can get some pictures.
