UNFRAME — R&B Enriched Mix

V6

[Intro — Rhodes & Breath] Vocals 1: On this familiar night, the same chord falls again. Vocals 2: Not bad. Vocals 3: ...But is that all? (Finger Snap) Vo.1: Don't break the music. Vo.2: Break the frame. All: And let it breathe. [Verse 1 — Vo.1] A beautifully arranged melody, like something I heard somewhere yesterday I don't dislike it, in fact I like it, so I want to see what's beyond It starts when I count to four, and it hits my heart just as planned But is the heart really something that responds so honestly to the beat? [Verse 2 — Vo.2 / Low Voice] The bass comes a little late The snare is laughing in the background A breath in the gap of the Rhodes Don't rush it, let it groove. Even in the silent spaces, there's a rhythm No need to fill it No need to embellish it Even that "space" is our sound [Pre-Chorus — Three Voices] Vo.1: Too Fast? Vo.2: Lay it back. Vo.1: Too dark? Vo.3: Let it shine. Vo.2: Shift your body just a little from the right answer Vo.3: What you find there— All: MAKE IT OURS. [Chorus] All: UNFRAME! Let's take the groove beyond the frame Not to a predetermined place, but to where your heart trembles UNFRAME! You can name the way you play it later Soul in the silence Heat in the blue Vo.1: We— All: We just want to know the sounds we don't know yet [Instrumental — R&B Brass Session] (Bass & Drums) Dum… da-dum… Ka— Tss… (Muted Trumpet) Pa-ra… Pa-ra-ra… (Sax) Doo-wa… Da-ba-doo… Vo.2: Easy… Vo.3: Don’t chase it. Vo.1: Feel it. All: Right there. [Verse 3 — Vo.3 / Soul Voice] Chasing after only the word "new" is meaningless Just dressing someone in outlandish clothes won't change their heart So let's borrow a warmth from an old record The low-key groove left behind by R&B That sweet shadow where voices overlap Let's place that on our today Not a copy Not a rebel either All: This is conversation. [Bridge — Call & Response] Vo.1: Where’s the beat? Vo.2: Between the beats. Vo.1: Where’s the Soul? Vo.3: Between the words. Vo.2: Where's the answer? (Instrumentation pauses briefly) Vo.3: Why do we need one? (Bass) DUM. All: OH—! [Chorus 2] UNFRAME! Let's mix a different breath into this familiar night Not to destroy it I just want to hear the rest UNFRAME! Let's take yesterday's masterpiece and tomorrow's sound with us Old soul, new blood, Same heart, different pulse. Vo.1: Beyond the royal road Vo.2: If there's no road Vo.3: The tracks we've walked— All: Just call them a road! [Silent Drop] (All instruments stop) Vo.1: Whose is music? Vo.2: I don't know. Vo.3: ...Then that's good. (Rhodes: one note) Vo.3: You're still free. [Final Chorus — Reverse Acceleration] (Drums → Bass → Brass becomes intensely complex) All: UNFRAME! Vo.1: Feel it! Vo.2: Move it! Vo.3: Breathe! All: UNFRAME! Vo.1: Soul! Vo.2: Groove! Vo.3: Beyond! All: Play! Don't decide! Feel it! Your name is— Later! Soul in the silence! Heat in the blue! Rhythm in the space between me and you! All: WE DON’T BREAK WHAT CAME BEFORE— WE OPEN ONE MORE DOOR! [Brass Explosion] Trumpet: PA-RA-PA-PA—!! Trombone: BWAAA—BAP! Sax: DA-RA-DA-RA-DA-DA! All: ONE MORE! (Brass Hit) ONE MORE! (Brass Hit) ONE MORE SOUND! [False Ending] (Complete stop) …… (Finger Snap) Snap… Snap… (Bass) Dumm… Da-dum… Vo.2: ...Is this R&B? Vo.1: Maybe. Vo.3: What if it's wrong? (Muted Trumpet) Paaa—ra… Vo.1: That's fine too— All: That's our sound. (Rhodes) Mm7 → 9th… Vo.3: Don't name it yet. (Muted Trumpet) Paaa—♪ — END —
