(song plays here)
I’m a huge fan of Telefon Tel Aviv and the work of Josh Eustis and the late Charles Cooper have influenced me to no end.
I used the Korg MonoPoly plug-in for the Boards of Canada-esque pad and did all the sequencing in Live. I really love the stock compressor and the eight band EQ that comes with Ableton. It’s always easy to be critical of stock plug-ins, but to my ears, these are some of the greats.

There is no known official artwork for this track, but there are multiple fan made ones. The filename of the downloaded audio is actually "Helicopter-Moon", but Helicopter Moon (without the -) is the more accepted title and is the actual title that appears in the metadata of the file. The artist and album metadata is not filled in, so there isn't really an official way to say whether this is a Owl City or an Adam Young song. The file downloads as a 320kbps MP3 file.

Beneath the helicopter moon
The repetition of the phrase "Beneath the helicopter moon" in Owl City's song Helicopter Moon creates a meditative and introspective atmosphere that prompts the listener to reflect on their place in the universe. The image of a helicopter moon also evokes a sense of wonder and awe at the vastness and beauty of the night sky. The use of the word "beneath" suggests that we, as humans, are small in comparison to the larger forces at play in the world.
Furthermore, the phrase could also be interpreted as a commentary on technology and its role in shaping our worldview. The helicopter is a symbol of progress and advancement, but it also has negative consequences such as noise pollution and environmental destruction. Perhaps the helicopter moon represents the intersection of these two contrasting forces - the beauty of nature and the rapid pace of technological innovation.
Overall, "Beneath the helicopter moon" is a simple yet powerful lyric that invites the listener to contemplate their relationship with the world around them and the complex forces at play in modern society.

A few hours after listening to this song, I copied the link to download it as my mp3, then, I just noticed...the words "Owl City" on your video.
I was like "Waitwhat-"
Was this a song by Owl City? Cause the description said the instrumentals are by Owl City.
After checking, yes, this song is by Owl City. And surprise surprise, the original had no lyrics. I just came to that realisation, my apologies for being ignorant for a sec there, haha.
Nice lyrics though. ^0^)/❤
Stay you, and stay chirpy!♪

I'm a huge fan of the dreamy Owl City-style music. I've found a few songs here and there from other artists with the same style, but you're the first artist I've found who uses this style exclusively, like Owl City used to, yet still sounds awesome adn original. Please keep singing, and never let go of that feeling in your music!
