Bees (w/bud)

Bud posted a super cool track recently called 'Tranquility Base', an ambient piece he made with his Buddha Machine. I thought it sounded amazing and was happy to see he posted it as an open collab, so I jumped on it. Because I thought Kevin's track is pretty cool as it is, and because I can't leave well enough alone, I decided to mess around with it and change it up a little. So, I split it up into two tracks, ran them through the KT Granulator and pitch shifted them quite a bit. In this song the manipulated Buddha machine tracks serve as a constant, building drone that can be thought of as the sound inside of the head of the person singing - a little like swarming bees.
The song itself is about someone who thinks he is going crazy, but welcomes it as a new beginning. Weird, I know.
Thanks for the collab, Kevin. I would have never made this song without being inspired by your track. You are officially the MacJams Buddha Machine Masta.

I do not understand
What you've been telling me
I'm too preoccupied
Your tongue is foreign speech

The bees inside my head
Are buzzing endlessly
My brain is shutting down
I think that I'm crazy

This is what I want
Yeah this is what I need
So I will let the bees keep working
Deep inside of me

In the final waking hours
Of my partial sanity
I will confide in you
And maybe then you'll see

That this is for the best
This baptism of fire
A brand new creation
Is just what I desire

This is what I want
Yeah this is what I need
So I will let the bees keep working
Deep inside of me
