DESLRV // drums + digital birds

here's a weird little pop song that came to me in a dream a while back.

DESLRV sent over some drums & "bird" samples for me to use this week. thank you, DESLRV heart
i was curious what the birds would sound like slowed down ~25%. they sound AWESOME, and so hey... BIRD SOLO

i've been sick all weekend and my left ear was wonky, so hopefully the mix turned out ok. thankfully i had most of my parts (including vocals) tracked earlier in the week, so i was able to finish everything else in bed today. including some hot Casio Rapman bass & brass leads. that thing rules and i kinda can't believe it still works.

thank you for listening. hope the holidays are calm for you.

DIGITAL BIRDZZZ LET'S GO

great collab! heart

yeeesss! We got the birds!
Great singing! Most of the WB's are instrumental, so it always feels good to have tracks with vocals.
Rocking track, loved it!

Bird synth! This is such a fun tune too. Nice work!

hell yeah, the birds! Love all the DESLRV elements in here. Catchy tune, I have a feeling I'll wake up with this in my head tomorrow lol.

Really fun track.  Super catchy and love the weird soundscapes.  Slowed down birds for the win!

This is really fun and catchy! I dig!
Bird solo is top notch haha.

Wish you well for the holidays!

OK, it does not need to be extended all the time. A little pop song does the trick as well. The mix is absolutely thick and great.

Oh yais! What a fun and super catchy track.  The bass and guitar dance is so gewd with the fun lyrics.  Yay birb!  Hope you're feeling better!

Weirdly it sounds like it could have been on REM's first album. A good collab!

cheers

I'm so happy with how goofy and silly this song allows itself to be hahahaha, awesome!

Man, that's definitely weird hearing them like that. You made very good use of them though, as goofy as you make them sound. This song could go very far.

Great pop song, great rendition of catchy bird sounds too!

Fun track, live and direct, full color.

What a fun track, playful sounds, catchy lyrics, birds and some killer drums.

I can totally relate to the how much being sick makes it hard to mix... like you blow your nose once, and suddenly like all the highend just disappears.  And I'm happy to report that you mix sound great.  I especially love how the distortion came out on the guitar, perfect sizzle that gives it exactly what it needs to stand out in the mix when all the fun synth sounds start swirling around.  Very fun track, well done.   

Delightful! Birds!

It is decided: Yes i am monochrome! heart

Very groovy, nice. For some reason this track made me think of Rocky Horror Picture Show big_smile

so fun!  quite fun to hear you with a bit of a different context, especially that glitchy bit at the start and the birds throughout!

That's a funny quirky song big_smile

wooo ha, this is so much fun. Makes me very happy. Always loved DESLRV's birds! Way to bring those in here, adds the delicious wonkiness. Stuck in my head now.

Loved it, knew I recognized those birds lol. Loved the casio rapman bits, as a fellow owner, that bass definitely was ringing some bells (though I had to read the text to actually realize it). Super fun song. And I assume/hope you feel better by now!

Definitely rocked out to this last week and forgot to leave a comment >.> The birds!! This is such a fun track and a very cool fusion of sounds I've come to know from both of you.
