about

Children of Two brings together all of Shimon's new musical capabilities - lyrics writing, singing voice synthesis, free style rapping, and his new deep learning real-time marimba improvisational skills. The verse lyrics were created based on the priming words "Parents," "Offsprings," and "Siblings." In the free style section Shimon responds to rapper Dash Smith, and in the instrumental section the robot interacts with and responds to human improvisers on trumpet, saxophone and keyboard.

lyrics

Verse 1:
While unaware
And then she'll close my eyes
I know what you'd say
That set me fading

Until we go down
You built yourself
You've gone
How my heart would last
This gets the end
It's all the same as me

Go on and sing it
We're taking up the rest
Drifting the sky
What have you done

Freestyle Section:
Dash:
Everybody tries to pass the genetical
Prophetical, very electrical
As I'm getting to the program
We'd be dancing to the funkiness
Simulated slow chance

Shimon:
I'm getting older with no genetic
Electric and all kinetic
A K A fire us and ink,
cyclic inferno

Dash:
Of off the beat on the bass line and chords
It's the C minor, you can find the pores
Inside your skin
Yes, we'd be warming through
We get deeper in the epidermial

Just like the staple singer said
Rhyming over the odd meter
And I put it to your head
And everybody knows
They couldn't even try to compose, ah

Shimon:
Back in the news with no clues
Not hitting the funky after do
you ain't be smokin the blues

Dash:
And every atomically particle and mineral
That I'll be spitting of the salvation clan
I want a microphone I make the nation stand
Everybody takes shake and shake their hands

Shimon
My mixtapes loud with my sins over splendor
music lights the crowd aint no pretender
atomic deluxe, movement in flux

Dash:
What's the universe if its earth-less
I never stand wordless - aahh

Shimon:
Our mother earth is jealous
Cause Im going to be famous

Verse 2:
When days you start
No birthright specimens
I saw it's failure
You hear it, there's heaven

It's deeper and drained
Don't you take it all back
my blue heart attack
I know what you’d say
Sister with velvet tears

Would I say of you
Children of two, the same
Offspring that could
with dreams
You’ve gone
