Robot Santa's climbing up the tree
Bright red ladder, one D battery
When the music stops the only sound
Is Robot Santa climbing up and down
I am sitting in a room alone
Different from the one you're sitting in right now
Checkered floor inside the studio
Several states away
Where I learned to listen to every sound
Robot Santa's got a buzzing drone
I'll record it with a microphone
Hypnotizing loop of plastic feet
Climbing up and down the Christmas tree
I am sitting in a room tonight
Different from the one you're sitting in right now
Listening to the clicking steps behind
A layered grave of voices
Of the man who taught me how to love these sounds
I am sitting in a resonant room
Different from the one you're sitting in right now
I've recorded Robot Santa's steps
Set two microphones
Play it through the speakers and record again
Modular synths sparkle amidst piano, vibes, and other organic instruments stringing together constellations of sound. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 22, 2023
