Nothing Left To Lose [Feat. Alex Ball]

by Anders Enger Jensen

/

about

The 90s called and wanted its groove back. I told it to stop, collaborate and listen! I've had this Alex Ball song on the agenda for quite some time too, and finally got around to finish it up. As always, he made some really catchy hooks that instantly got my 66% shuffle groove going. And I of course went a little more happy-pappy dance floor early 90s style, sprinkled with some glossy 80s FM ear candy and more.

This is for those who wonder, taken from Alex' video on the Yamaha TX81Z sound module and how he made a "90s Banger" on it. I've also used some TX sounds and enhanced the palette with all sorts of 80s and 90s relevant gear. Hope you like it! ;)

lyrics

Nothing Left To Lose
Lyrics and melody: Alex Ball
Arrangement: Anders Enger Jensen

Verse 1:
Now this is the verse rap section
Cover your ears for your own protection
‘Cause I’m gonna lay it down
Drop my lyrics all over the town

I got prose up in your face
Teaming up with that Lately Bass
We’ll be here for a little while
With rhyming couplets in a 90s style

Verse 2:
‘Cause this is the way it should be
Got funky sounds from the 81Z
I got class, I’m a rapping hero
My FM sounds are truly through-zero

I got MIDI to play the notes
Sing back the melodies that I wrote
My tunes play across the nations
Slicker than CC information

Chorus 1:
Now I’m saying I got nothing left that I can lose!
And I’m showing that there’s nothing I should prove to you! Oh-oh! (2x)

Verse 3:
I’m back with more rhyming verse
The second time will probably be worse
But I’ll give it my best shot
More crappy lyrics is all I got

But I’ll bring some synth puns with ’em
References to algorithms
‘Cause I’ll be your smooth operator
You’re carrier, I’m modulator

Verse 4:
Feedback, push the envelope
I’ll spit more rhymes as you losers choke
I got skills like learning the theory
Which is why my sounds ain’t dreary

I’ve got groove, it’s so surprising
With Stereoping, avoid menu diving
So I’m gonna smell you later
And leave you with the sounds of the tone generator!

Chorus 2:
Now I’m saying I got nothing left that I can lose!
And I’m showing that there’s nothing I should prove to you! Oh-oh! (2x)

Bridge:
(Vocal adlibs)

Chorus 3:
Now I’m saying I got nothing left that I can lose!
And I’m showing that there’s nothing I should prove to you! Oh-oh! (3x)
