While we chill in the killing hour of midnight as we thrill early in the night of the lime lights of the streets as the sun glows goes down let us lay down on the lawn at a pub of our choice lets us walk walk with a smile on our faces as the moonlight climes into the streets of the shallow path with our heads up high

Has we going to the town let us chill in the thrown with a happy smile on our faces as we go through into the shopping malll let us spend time in there as we watch the world go by as we waiting to go home by tea time let us listen to the music of the softest touch until bed time as the morning dusk waking up to the bird song

Let the air hit our faces as we wonder down the streets of our neighbours as we try to getting sorted out with something going on in our town as the clowns goes out from the circus tent let them play and have fun as the sunset in the dusking sky

While we make a killing on the horses as the losers gro at each other let the people chat to one and other as the moonlight shines through the race track while we go back home into our beds as we watch each other as we chill out of the room.

Released August 6, 2026
Written and produced by Shaun, a.k.a DJ Gizmo with the support of a Beat This Music Practitioner.

Sound Lab is a brand-new, high-energy creative music hub developed by Beat This for children and young people aged 6–18. Forget everything you know about dusty music rooms and boring scales, Sound Lab is an inclusive, hands-on space where young people don’t just learn music; they create it. Whether a participant dreams of becoming the next big music producer or the drummer in a garage band, this is their ultimate laboratory.

We believe that music-making should be genuinely accessible. Many young people face barriers in traditional music education, which is why Sound Lab is designed to give them the exact tools, gear, and confidence they need to express themselves, find their fluency, and discover their unique musical voice. From mastering modern music technology to collaborating with peers, the project prioritises creative ownership, experimentation, and fun.

Designed for children and young people aged 6–18, Sound Lab is an inclusive, hands-on music programme where participants can learn to play instruments, produce music, write songs, record in a professional studio and build confidence in a fun, supportive environment.

The good news is that Sound Lab is now up and running, with regular workshops and sessions continuing throughout the summer at no cost to you!!
