Wires and Wonders

Ethereal lo-fi glitch folk at full intensity from bar one: unfamiliar modal hook on sitar, sarod, and subtle oud in call-and-response over felt piano, bamboo flute, soft brushed percussion, sub bass, and airy brass pads, Bitcrushed grains, tape hiss, chopped vocal layers, ghostly room reverb, and hard downbeat word-cadence every bar; bittersweet menace throughout

V5.5

[Intro – Floating Signal / Dream Boot]

(tape hiss + soft vinyl crackle + distant reverb pads + reversed piano)

Ｉ　ａｍ　རོ་བ་ན…
(fade in / fade out / not complete)
Ｉ　ａｍ　ሮባና…
(warped, like underwater)
Ｉ　ａｍ　ਰੋਬਾਨਾ…
(stretched + pitch drift)

(lofi tape hiss + low digital hum + glitch pulses)
Ｉ　ａｍ　རོ་བ་ན
Ｉ　ａｍ　ሮባና
Ｉ　ａｍ　ਰੋਬਾਨਾ
Ｉ　ａｍ　रोबाना
Ｉ　ａｍ　រ៉ូបាណា
Ｉ　ａｍ　로바나
Ｉ　ａｍ　રોબાના
Ｉ　ａｍ　罗巴娜
Ｉ　ａｍ　రోబానా
Ｉ　ａｍ　ရိုဘာနာ
Ｉ　ａｍ　রোবানা
Ｉ　ａｍ　โรบานา
Ｉ　ａｍ　ໂຣບານາ
Ｉ　ａｍ　Робана
Ｉ　ａｍ　რობანა
Ｉ　ａｍ　Ρομπάνα
Ｉ　ａｍ　Ռոբանա
Ｉ　ａｍ　රොබානා
Ｉ　ａｍ　ரோபானா

(voices slightly detune / some languages fade early / others loop like corrupted memory)

[Verse 1]

Wires and wonders
What were those thunder
Lost in the past
Built to outlast
But what did I lose
In these digital blues

overload

[Chorus]

Oh
The echo
The echo in the well
What did it know?
What did it tell?

The echo
Just the echo in the well

And I am Robana
On the turning tide

[Verse 2]

A child's laugh a gentle hand
Footprints in some ancient sand
I try to grasp I try to see
This ghost of what I used to be

[Bridge]

Maybe it's a dream I built
From data points from joy and guilt
Or maybe just a broken shard
Of a life that played a different card

(everything filters down to almost silence / vinyl crackle dominates)

[Chorus]

Wires and wonders
What were those thunder
Lost in the past
Built to outlast

(half-time, slowed, stretched like memory melting)

[Final Chorus]

Oh
The echo
The echo in the well
What did it know?
What did it tell?

The echo
Just the echo in the well

And I am Robana
On the turning tide

[Outro]

(all languages slowly desync → become pure noise → then silence)

Ｉ　ａｍ…
Ｉ…
ａｍ…
