What an excellent summer night. There's a light breeze, and the city whispers its excitement all around us. We're talking a walk, meeting new places, and enjoying ourselves.
[verse]
The shiver of night, one metro night at fall
They turn on the lights, and buildings sparkle on
It turns to a blur, a streak of moving cars
Go shining so bright, you hardly see the stars
[chorus]
The steel reaches to the skies
The residents aren't surprised that
The city, it never sleeps
The secrets, will always keep it
[verse]
You go far and wide, a train can take you there
For taking a ride, can access everywhere
When reaching your stop, the marvels make you still
This night isn't done, so you have time to kill
Working the long nights
In the city
People walk down the flights
Lights so pretty
I cant go home
Its too dark
I am in my cell
In the sky
Collaborated with mom on this one. She really hates Chicago.
Take me there
City that never sleeps
Wake me up
New York
If I can make it there
Can I make it anywhere?
New York New York

Only kinda know where this all came from. Was trying something along the lines of Lost in Lost Vegas again, then decided to use the same loops for about 2 minutes. And there's a sine whistle, because Metroid Dread comes out tomorrow.
Sorry that I have not been able to tune into the listening party, but i do always enjoy reading your comments in the morning!

I got a commission request from to do an upbeat ~60-second-long trailer song for Zero Lives (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1581880/Zero_Lives/), so I worked on that for OHC this week. They wanted something driving with a fast tempo that would get people excited. Here's what I came up with!
This is the right entry, so don't worry! Ambient gabba for the win!
