IS THIS REAL

By PeterM on January 23, 2026 2:03 am

I wish there was a coherent story for how this one came together. I had no plan. I had some pieces of ideas. I made it into this. Mission accomplished!

Lots of vocal stuff this week ... maybe that is where all the time went. I wasn't sure about the uke part, but I had it lying around and it kinda works I think. Just throwing it all in the pot I guess lol.

Enjoy!

woah love how threatening it sounds when the weird formant line come in at ~1:12! Is is the same vocal line as the beginning but with some processing? The vocal panning is cool, too! The lead vocal line is good but I'm wondering if it could use something to give it more presence in the mix, maybe some light compression, maybe doubling it up? Sounds good as is, too. Just sharing ideas.

Fun vocals! Love the experimentation, came out great

The different vocal stuff is cool and I like how you used them more like an instrument at various places.  I like the song as a whole also.  Oh yeah, and I read the tags.  At least sometimes I do.  smile

really cool use with your vocals! love when that deep guttural tone comes in too. Well done! Yais i too read da tags smile

oh hell yes!

also i got to the end and i was like... did i miss the uke?
i thought that was piano, ha!   big_smile

this is so rad and i love the vocals

Thanks for the vocal tips! I'll take all I can get.

Yeah, that deep tone makes me want to make this just an intro to a longer song that features that low bass part.

Thanks! Yeah, the uke is hidden behind a bunch of effects and, I agree, it comes in a bit like a piano.

we've got one like that too! i sometimes forget that pianos are also stringed instruments
