Zeppelins With Buttoxes

By dreikelvin on February 23, 2014 2:29 am


It was friday. The night before I was still trapped in a piece of jelly that was guarded by a zombie hamburger drone, hovering, waiting to hear me whistle. I realized that I didn't work on this weeks beat yet! Panic. So I sat there, wondering what to do and opened a bunch of older sketches, nothing that really satisfied me. In the end, I started completely from scratch and played a stupid little riff with a marimba sample. Zoom! Had the base structure done after 3 hours. Today is saturday and I just finished finalizing the mix (and limiting and all that unnecessary shit just to get you heard today and wastes hours of useful time). May the song about furry cucumbers, giant naked toothbrushes and  hairpieces from salt be pleasurable to you, dear WB listener!

Sorry for the watermark beeps. You can listen to a clean version via my soundcloud:

Those zeppelins, just full of gas... amirite?

This is oh so very nice. I enjoyed your back story on this, too...thank you.

just plain stunning!!! I'm blown away by this demonstration of pure talent. Hats off!

love the marimba bouncing around and then the drums that come in are suhweet especially that gong-like wash added in.  The distorted guitary synth is awesome.  Very nice progression, those drums are friggin tight! smile

thank you guys!

definately wink

Very cinematic piece... You should do some animation abou this... Maybe a toothbrush building some kind of spaceshuttle made of popcorn?

The marimba reminds me of the forest levels in Donkey Kong Country.

Great track! I really like how the track progresses from the lone marimba loop to full instrumentation.

Almost sounds like a piece from a wildlife documentary.  "The wild Buttoxes stalk their prey above the cumulus"

Phenomenal. So many different sounds and vibes playing well together. Love it!

P.S.: I now have the term "Ass Zeppelins" stuck in my head. I blame wine! big_smile

Great piece.
