Lyrics:
When you got off the plane
You just had to complain
Had to bring me down
Don't look out, don't look in
don't look up, don't look around
When the mason you know
Worked at Machu Picchu
Did he marvel that
The space between stones
Lets them rest in a way that is safe
we all need to feel safe
You speak french on the phone
Though you refuse to learn how to say hello
Your body's grown so
That it's sewn to the hem of the couch
When you left me at Disney
Held up by a stranger, I waived my arms
They assured me they'd find you
They assured me that this stone was safe
We all need to feel safe
Add to this. Though it has a lot happening, I think some drums/bass could carve out some moments/space. Go to town.

My favorite part of these hubski music collaborations is when someone adds something that I know that I would have never considered. Phat bass on this song falls in this category. I really dig it when the bass line kicks in to gear mid way through. Also, it sounds great in the fade out ending. Well done! What are you using for this?
Thanks, glad you dig it! I was listening for piano harmonies to add when I got the idea to just go nuts on my Sub Phatty (Moog synth) instead--thought it would give an interesting contrast to the acoustic vibe. I couldn't decide whether it sounded overdone or not, so I decided to just post it up.
I think it sounds cool. It may be a bit too up front in the mix, but other than that it's rad. You should totally use that Sub Phatty on more #hubskioriginalmusicclub songs. I went to Guitar Center (had a birthday gift cert) and it took all my self discipline not to buy the Moogs that were on sale there. Was an inch away from financing a new synth. #badidea Hope to hear you on more collaborative songs. I posted a new one tonight :)
Oh no doubt it needs to be lowered in the mix--I kind of just threw it on the track as a fire-and-forget type deal. I'll definitely check out tonight's collab and see if I can think of anything to add! And yeah, looking at Moogs with cash in your pocket is a dangerous proposition. I'm seriously debating whether I really need to replace my car or if I'd be more happy with a Model D reissue...
Nice! I'm in an airport listening with my phone pressed up against my ear. -just realized I forgot my earbuds in the car. -doh! Bummer. Ill listen properly when I get home. Thanks for this
Also, the guitar solo on this one is dope as hell.
funnily enough, I'm currently reading this right now
I'm intrigued. Some have said its his best work. Enjoy
I'm spamming hubski with videos tonight, but you should know about that other song that uses Machu Picchu.
