Boat Club

about

My new dreamy folk track ‘Boat Club’. As per usual, I made everything about this track myself; composition, recording and mixing. I wanted the production to be reasonably minimal. I have a tendency to want to keep throwing things at a track but sometimes you have to let the instruments speak for themselves. As with all my tracks, this was recorded using an acoustic guitar, an 80s synth and a drum track from online. I think the lyrics speak for themselves on this one and I wanted to have a soft, slow production to match. Though the subject is melancholic, I think the louder, bolder instrumentation in the final chorus lifts the mood somewhat. I’ve been trying to resist the urge to add too much vocal layering in the last couple of tracks because I have found that I’ve been relying on that to add atmosphere and wanted to experiment with just one harmony and main vocal. Please let me know what you think.

lyrics

I, I wish I could hold you
And you, I wish you’d allow me to
I can’t sleep
And I can’t dream
I can’t sleep
And I can’t dream

Throw me onto the pyre
For she is your true desire
It kills me
But I love you
It kills me
But I love you

Ooh
Ooh
You make me so crazy
You make me so wild
You make me so crazy
You make me so wild

You, I wish that you loved me
But I, want you to be happy
I’ll be at the boat club
That’s where I’ll be
I’ll be at the boat club
If ever you need me

Ooh
Ooh
You make me so crazy
You make me so wild
You make me so crazy
You make me so wild

Ooh
Ooh
You make me so crazy
You make me so wild
You make me so crazy
You make me so wild
