Tempo: 88–92 BPM (laid-back, off-grid swing) Drums: Dusty, loose snares with vinyl crackle. Use chopped breaks from obscure jazz records. Sample: Loop a melancholic jazz horn or piano riff. Think Sun Ra, Bill Evans, or Mulatu Astatke. Bassline: Minimal, warm, slightly detuned — let the sample breathe. Texture: Layer ambient hiss, film dialogue snippets, and subtle vinyl pops. 🎙️ Vocal Style: Deep Hip-Hop Voice To emulate DOOM’s delivery: Tone: Baritone, relaxed but menacing. Think “masked professor lecturing in riddles.” Flow: Off-kilter, syncopated. Let syllables stretch and bend — don’t chase the beat, dance around it. Recording Tip: Use a vintage mic emulation plugin (like RCA 77DX or Neumann U47) for warmth and grit. 🧪 DAW Setup (Digital Audio Workstation) Software: Ableton Live, FL Studio, or Logic Pro Plugins: iZotope Vinyl for texture RC-20 Retro Color for analog feel Decapitator for vocal saturation Voice FX Chain: EQ: Cut highs, boost mids Compression: Light, slow attack Reverb: Short plate for room feel Saturation: Tape-style warmth
Lyrics
mask on, class in session (mm)
turn the record slow, let the horn confessin' (huh)
paper moons, ink moons, ledger lesson (yuh)
(skid-skat) skrrt, tape hiss, low-tense breathe in
I walk with a map folded in the seams of my coat
teachin' algebra of shadows, numbers that choke
penned a sermon on a napkin, stamped it with smoke
merchant of murmurs, I barter the jokes I don't tote (mm)
vinyl crack underfoot like a code that I wrote
bass hums a sermon, piano bleeds notes (uh)
my syllables swing off-grid, like doors that don't close
I floss with consonants, floss with the ghosts (yeah)
paper-backed prophets, they cough ink on the floor
I catalogue contraband metaphors, more
pocket full of small suns, a lighter of lore
I barter silver verbs for keys to the door (huh)
chalk dust on my palms from diagrams I tore
stitch the lines with a stitch that remembers before
mask low, voice slow, lecture in minor scores
I teach riddles to kings and to cats on the floor (mm-mm)
listen close (listen), the professor will speak (speak)
old horns cry, nights fold into week (week)
listen close (listen), the professor will speak (speak)
old horns cry, nights fold into week (week)
I migrate through gutters of grainy film frames
collect syllable coins, misplace all the names (yuh)
paper airplanes stutter, crash in the rain
I salvage the scraps, rearrange 'em again (uh)
my rhythm is crooked, like a handshake at dawn
I bend the vowels backward until they yawn (mm)
detuned bass hums like a prayer gone wrong
I stitch verses with nails and a tongue with a song
I cipher in corners where pigeons won't peck
I fold continents small, keep the atlas in check
a ledger of laugh-lines, a ledger of debt
I spit salt on the wounds that I never forget (huh)
rumors of prophets in basements agreeing to deals
I barter a howl for a moment that feels (feels)
line-breaks like caution tape, slow-motion reels
I speak in the static between reels and the heels (yeah)
(mm) keep the mask on, keep the lesson low (low)
(uh) let the horn cry, let the records roll (roll)
(heh) count the coins, count the wrongs that we owe (owe)
(na-na) tip the brim, let the slow thing grow (grow)
listen close (listen), the professor will speak (speak)
old horns cry, nights fold into week (week)
listen close (listen), the professor will speak (speak)
old horns cry, nights fold into week (week)
