MY PALACE ORBITS THIS GREAT STAR

a James Lyng High School Mixtape

This is our palace, this is our planet.

We stand here as queens and kings on this giant rock shooting through space at a speed of more than one hundred thousand kilometres each hour. We're everything and nothing, and so are you.
​
Enjoy the ride!​

This mixtape compiles nineteen original songs that were written, performed and recorded by James Lyng High School students in their music classes during the 2022-2023 school year.

James Lyng High School's music program is a
non-traditional, student-centred program that draws inspiration from Hip Hop, Rock and R&B,
as well as whatever our students are into.
​We hope that you enjoy this collection of songs as much as we enjoyed creating it.
