Charlie Brown's Funeral

By Sodabelly on March 4, 2024 12:01 am

Had to re-upload because some strings were super loud in the mixdown. Anyway, enjoy!

Supersad track. Hope you are fine. Lovely epiano arpeggios and gentle strings. Sniieef.

Yeah, those strings and chord choices really bring some sadness. The "music box" like patch is very nice.

Beautiful.

it is sad, very sad, but not as sad as when charlie murphy died, now do one for charlie murphy! big_smile

Haha I’ll add it to my to-do list!

I love the timpani roll as a transition at 0:35... I also feel like, while the general vibe is sad... certainly starts that way... the rise in energy following that timpani and then the kind of ballroom swing feel from the bass starting at 1:29... leaves me with a sad, but hopeful vibe.  Mournful, but with good things to come.

Thanks! Yes that timpani roll was an a-ha moment for me, otherwise that transition felt so flat…

Yeah it’s a pretty intense title…thanks for coming by again!

Very skillfully arranged to evoke emotions, love the piano passages melding with the sines. I'd say the song is quite tiersenesque. Great job!

heart just lovely

those strings immediately tugged on my heart strings.  the electric piano is pure nostalgic feels.  The piano that comes in after is super emotive.  *places football on tombstone*  You did good Charlie Brown.

Not sad, but heart-warming and hopeful, especially with the energy following the timpani transition and the playful mood shift at 1:28. The transition from the Rhodes-sounding EP patch to the acoustic piano at the end is a nice touch.
