This is giving me a "pirates of the swamp land" vibe. I think it's because it reminds me a bit of the soundtrack of one of the "return to monkey island" games. HOLY SHIT, ANOTHER APE REFERENCE!!! HAHAHAHAHA, I swear that wasn't on purpose, hahahahaha... Anyways, super fun track!!!

This just made me laugh and smile. It sounds just great, absolutely love what starts happening at the 2 min mark and after... but it's just got a great sense of humour too. Awesome. And live the super echoey percussion!

Cool to read the origin/inspo for this one
Dub vibes fo real. That bass line carries this so well with all the cool spacey shit happening over the top (improvs?). Works well to give it structure but also kept loose. The synths are spacey as shit

Nice origin story haha

Feelin the dub

Nice origin story haha Feelin the dub

Oh, that's FUNNY. Apes, man...apes. Thanks!

Thanks! Something I love about Dub is how it has all the extreme echoes going on, but has an immense sense of space. My normal music style is rather...busy...so I'm glad the extra echoes didn't get too cluttered!

Thanks! I've never tried Dub before, glad it came across.

I triple layered the bassline! A software sub-bass synth, the TD3 for some texture, and fretless for some organic feel and transients. The spacey sounds at the beginning and end are a sample from the movie, and the rest is a patch from the XV-5080 called Sci-Fi Sweep. Random midi notes for eight bars and then looping it got the job done

Thanks! Now I'm imagining songs with origin stories and intertwining into an extended universe...

lel, yea and every few decades you do a reboot. Some multiverses will have a musical mechanical zebra, others will have a musical live gorilla. I love this.

Suhweet dub feels when that snare comes in.  The head starts to nod along when the guitar comes in.  Hearing some of that Plastic Beach vibe in there as well.  Sweet story about the gorilla.  I need to check out my local goodwill for samples

Finally catching up and I LOVE this! Laid back, but a little dark, like the dub is coming to get me! The voices certainly help in that respect, and the textures of all the effects are loads of fun!

Irie!

I love Gorillaz, so happy you can hear that. Never listened to Plastic Beach much, I should revisit that….

Thanks! I like the idea of dub “coming to get you”…to me, the genre has a feeling of menace that I love.
