Lighter Than Air, Briefly

By roboctopus on January 29, 2012 3:26 pm

So at the beginning of this week I was going to fuse garage blues and game boy, haha. Like dueling game boy and guitar solos. Maybe a bit of live drumming. I even had some lyrics written--my woman leaving me, etc. Maybe it would have been epic.

But halfway through the week I sort of stalled on composing the LSDJ parts and decided to write a bit of fluffy dance pop to distract myself. I ended up getting really in to my poppy dance tune and abandoning chippy garage blues.

Anyway, I think this is some of my best LSDJ programming. Though for some reason I added some wubs, and I'm not sure I should have done that >_<

Funny how you got around to it but this is really cool! Like the rhythm change-ups and breakdowns

hahahah "tight programming 4 the ladies"

and sick track, bro. really catchy and fun!

this is great, love the title and the euphoric vibes

Really nice!!

those are some really light and fluffy tones with some serious bass.  really nice lsdj work :-D

That bassline is pure milk. I do agree that the wubs didn't really fit, though.

Hahaha, yeah the wubs make 0 sense in this, otherwise a great little chune.

Sounds good, but would prefer nonwubby = p

Always add more wubs. Songs can never have enough wubs. When you think you have enough wubs start adding in some yugs and yois.

Roboctopus - such a happy tune! (nice title too - lighter than air, briefly) really keen to hear that epic chippy garage blues as well too, if it doesn't make you too blue!

good sequence

oh that wiggling must be your wubs during the bridge thing

I can dig it

the changes in the outro really, like, made an impression on meeeee

Thanks everyone. Re: wubs. Just imagine something cooler is going on there. They're like a place holder for inspiration. I was like, "what do I do now? Oh, maybe wubs?" Looking back, maybe not wubs, haha.

Nice feel to this one.

I don't mind the wubs, it's like the track is trying to say something.

..i was waiting for you new track and downloaded it when it has just appeared here!!! I liked it very much!! smile

Ahhhhh, another song that reminds me why I love chiptunes smile

I love your songs man.

Chiptune madness!  I dig the bending melody in the middle and the slide out.  Hip.

you are an inspiration Sir Topus

sounds chill man! the noise near the end was awesome

This is so good!

Simply great!  Really smile

digging this!

Glad you guys liked it! There will be a wub-free version somewhere, in the future.
