Power Sign

Devieus did the whole thing, except for the name. Also the melody, and the instruments, this was originally a generated composition, but only those two things survived. He just needed sounds and later a melody to fill the void.

He's been having a headache for most of the week, and despite us sharing a body, I seem to have different aches.

These pains are usually a sign the body is "rejecting" the personality, but he really wanted the song done. Unfortunately, willpower only gets you so far.

Glad he got the song done! Love those chip metal vibes. Also hi Raioh big_smile

This has very much the structure and the feel of a metal track, even if the instruments are a mix of metal and bird led chiptune. I like the metal groove of this track and the riff. Thanks Devieus and Raioh.

A perfect stoner song. The titel could not have been better chosen. Well done under those circumstances.

This is the definition of chip metal, both parts of the equation very clearly audible. You're back in Audacity?

It was very much designed like that, lamenting how it really could use some lyrics to go over it.

Thank you very much.

So far only Spider has been using it. For this week it was easier to do in LMMS and Audacity since some parts were generated. I will do the same, because the thing I want to do is easier to do in LMMS as well.

ROCK ON!!! Hellz yeah!!! I feel like there's a twinge of Irish Jig in there, too! The main synth kind of sounds like a fiddle at times, hahahahaha... I'm really enjoying these chip metal vibes, great job! And I hope Devieus feels better soon!!!

Love the groove & rhythm of this track.

I could totally see this as part of the soundtrack for an old 90s era game. Sounds really cool, and it has a good blend of chip and metal. Nice track!

Wouldn't be the first time we did a jig, hopefully not the last either.

He'll be fine, but probably won't be back soon.

Thank you, chip and metal is definitely the goal for sure.

Excellent interplay between the guitar chords and the higher register lead keys.  Title def fits this feel with the big sounding drums and powerful chords. 

I like to imagine that a friend of the little bird is whipping out a flute and playing a flute solo around 02:07.
A steady track! I like it!

Chugging guitars with a chippy synth lead feels so right smile

Definitely going to try to make that our thing. It's easy for us and has a satisfying result.

I like it too, and who knows, maybe it is the bird, it's definitely not not the bird, I can assure you that much.

It definitely does, even if it drags a bit at the end. That's been fixed in a different file afterwards.
