Beautifully weird. Love the complex clap pattern, and some of the dialogue samples that are just so mangled they’ve got that… it’s words but not words… magic.

A distorted guitar rules the show this time around!

Nitpick: the quote samples are very loud, which causes everything else to duck, somewhat overwhelming the tune.

those claps SLAP

lol

those claps SLAP lol

Took me by surprise when the guitars rolled in. Now that I think about it, I've heard plenty of songs where people clap and then a clean guitar or bass comes in, but I don't think I've ever heard like a rock/metal guitar and clapping haha. Breaking new ground!

I was disturbed. Wasn't ready. These are good things lol. I love the claps but for me what does it is all the vocal chops and shouts coming from different sonic spaces - it really feels like I'm in the middle of a fantastic rhythmic screaming match and I love it lol

the clap loop is sick!!!

this was a fun listen!

I think it stinks!! LOL, but thanks so much for linking those m8 instruments.

Thanks for listening and for the kind comment!!! I've found that I really like mangling vocal samples, so I super appreciate the kind remark

Thank you thank you!!!! I was surprised with how nice the guitar samples sounded on the M8!
Also, yeah, I hear you about the volume. I set many of the instruments to duck on the trigger for the kick drum, but I think I just forgot to apply the same thing to the vocal samples. It's especially noticeable in the later parts of the song. Anyways, thanks again for the listen!

Hahahahahaha, that's very kind Thank you for the listen!

Thank you thank you!!! I had a lot of fun programming the claps

Pun spotted. Given the circumstances, you may proceed. Hahahahaha....
Thanks for the listen and kind comment!!!

Thank you so much, that's SUPER encouraging to hear! I don't have much of a well defined style yet, so I'm just going buckshot style, taking wild ass swings in all sorts of weird directions. I'm happy I was able to land on something weird, different but still marginally listenable! Hahahahaha... Thanks for the listening!!!

HAHAHAHAH Excellent!!! That's precisely what I was going for - making my listener feel like they're getting yelled at musically, hahahahaha... Thanks for listening!!!

Thank you so much!!!! Those claps were super fun to program. I'm definitely making more glitchy claps in my future submissions.

HAHAHAHAHA... Thank you thank you!!! I always try to link back to the stuff I used whenever possible! And thanks for listening!

cracking up at the vocal sample insanity in here. very weird tune and I appreciate pushing the boundaries on weirdness.

also ...

I related strongly to this. Couple things that have helped me with this recently, (1) reminding myself that I'm not going to run out of ideas for songs one day, so I should just go all in, take risks and not be afraid to fuck things up, and (2) saving different versions of a track along the way, so if I *DO* fuck something up it's easier to roll back changes and restart from the last "savepoint"

the first point is necessary for removing the mental barrier to creativity and the second is a nice practical failsafe.

[quote=jegasus] I'm still having a bit of a hard time developing things beyond a fun loop kernel. I think it's that I'm just hesitant to break things, so once I get something fun, I stick to it and never move onwards. [/quote] I related strongly to this.
