Love the gradually increasing tempo and when the hi hats come in. Nice work!

Hahah i dig the tempo increase! You could have taken it all the way to even higher strata of beats! Crazy buildup!

Thank you very much!

Feel free to take it, it's such a simple idea and sure to boost your engine.

The issue I ran into was that I ran out of frets, more or less. I could've started over back at 0 or 1 though. Guess that's going in the warmup cookbook.

Oooh the power bar gives the birds the energies!  Feeling it with the cool tempo idea.  Nice work!

Ha, the title track is perfect for your style. Love the concept for this track, I've never tried messing with tempo this much in a song. Got me hyped by the end!

Definitely

Guess they were drones all along and this is how they get powered up

The whole thing just kinda came to her and was done in very short notice after that, like it all for together right away (she's also really smart)
You should try the tempo stuff, it's a good measure to see how your gizmo handles it, because sometimes it can be a real doozy

The concept behind the track is actually super fresh. I got a bit anxious at the end, the drums added to the feeling.

Hey, I wanted to make that "power bar is full" joke when I saw the title. But I see you made it yourself in the description

Agreed with moloko, the raising tempo definitely is somewhat anxiety-inducing. This would make this technique work great for some JRPG cutscene or a boss battle.

Beat you to it~
dunno why you'd think it's anxiety inducing, perhaps that says more about you than it does the song, like, this progression is either in Dorian or in minor, where it's very powerful and heroic in Dorian, but causes anxiety in minor
There's little clue for either of them, because everything is playing power chords, tho as such only the Dorian mode will have all these power chord notes on the scale, so maybe you can lean on that?

I think it's less about the harmony and more about the rising speed. A struggle to keep up, the anxiety of falling behind.

But yeah, it does say a lot about the listener. Art is a mirror.

Guess that's one angle, I think for us it's more the hype, the song is carrying us, rather than ahead of us, maybe because we were the ones who made it, but since the pattern doesn't change, it's easy to see where it's going

What a great build! I love the wide stereo image and distortion on the guitar too. And the drums have such a great space! Awesome!

hecking heck the tempo increase is so good, now i want to play a video game where the castle is crumbling and you have to escape with this as the soundtrack

I don't know if it's been mentioned before, but the wide stereo image was made by recording it twice and doing hard pans. Just a little secret.
As for the drums, that really just feels natural, doesn't it? The whole song is about buildup, it's only fair for them as well.

I can probably work it into something. Meanwhile, maybe you can try it too.
