Five Weeks

By Phil Harmonic on February 4, 2024 10:40 pm

Perhaps a little low effort this week, but I wanted to do something in 5/4 time cause my dad had linked me this super long performance of "Take Five." Got me in the mood smile and it works out cause it's week FIVE smile

In 5/4 no less. Nice. big_smile
This is so catchy and energetic. Love it!

What are your sound sources? Somehow this feels reminiscent of a VGM soundtrack I really like, NiGHTS - Journey of Dreams for the Wii.
I really like the composition, too. It's complex but doesn't come off as try-hard

pianoteq 8.... the epiano is arturia analog lab.. the lead synth and bass are  just FL 3xOsc..  drums are just some dnb kit.. 

5/4 has always messed with my brain, super well done here! And it's all groovy and funky, too! Great work!!!!

So next week is 6/4, because it's week 6?
Solid song though, upbeat funky stuff.

I was thinking the same thing.. big_smile
we'll see.

Can't wait for you 52/4 masterpiece come year's end.

spastic and jumpy! gotta flava

I love the FM synth voice that comes in at 0:37... very Sonic 2 "Casino Nights".  Works super well with the jazzy 5/4 feel.  Great tune. 

Sounds great; I agree with LeBernd; the performance & instrumentation would fit in with a great Sega Saturn OST

This some swanky ass 5/4, damnnnnnnnnnnn. Love that back and forth between the synth lead and piano melodies.
