this is a song about a squirrel who wakes up one morning in his nest and he realizes that he completely forgot to scavenge for nuts and berries before the cold winter chill set in. he rouses violently from his tree in desperate search for food but discovers that it is all gone. what will the little squirrel do now.
i actually made this song a while ago, i hadnt posted it because i was going to redo the vocals but everytime i did i couldnt get the tone i wanted so i just figured id master it and submit it and get it over with.
this song will be on my next album.
please rate and review
:D :D :D
Wow. The section from 1:14 to 1:26 was sweet as a nugget.
Your composition skills are quite something, I must say. However I feel the way this is produced really brings it back from what it could be.
I'm not quite sure how, and know you might not understand me when I say it. But the elements in the song don't seem to gel.
However, that one section = <3
If it came on in a club I'd jizz myself.
at the time i made this i was getting into story line, i wanted to see if i could make the synths etc, resemble a squirrel, and yeah that one part everyone likes was probably the highlight of the song! at around !:50 i didnt want to spell out the squirrels final options, i wanted to leave it up to the listener i guess. to me, who knows what happened to him!
thanks for the review!
My review, your song.
To contemplate the lyrics... I have no sympathy for a creature that has solely the cognitive functions to survive, and even then it failed at that.
As for the song, as a song, not some point of intellectual conversation, mix is nice. Drums are typical of trance though, they aren't memorable in any way shape or form, just 4/4 kicks and claps on the second beats with the occasional roll of sorts.
Lyrics were worked in nicely, had a good sound to them, filled the narrating niche quite nicely.
Synth diversity however was juicy and fulfilling, though they weren't automated a whole lot.
You've written your bass to mainly be on the offbeat of every beat, play with a second bass track playing on thirds, I find it layers very nicely, and makes the song much more unpredictable, without being debilitating to the song.
I found best part of the song was about 0:40-1:20, rest seemed like it was not the focus of your efforts, and just rambled on into whatever came out of your finger tips.
Bass at 1:50 was very minimalistic in its sound creation, I think it could have done with some automating, after a bit it sounds like some painful musical embodiment of swelling organs. Or something less negative, since thats a slight stretch of what it made me feel.
Maybe trance just isn't my thing...
Outro sounded like it was a last thought tack on, didn't fit. Good you included an outro though, helps complete a song so so much.
Oveall excellent job, humourous, and not bad sounding. Acheived status in my mind as a media peice of entertainment.
Four berries out of five, eight dead squirrels out of ten.
haha, i must say i loved your review. it was probably the most interesting i have ever recieved as far as character goes.
yes i am aware that the drums were no more advanced than a typical pattern of most electronic music, however i felt that drums of a more intricuit nature would be overwhelming to the listener when paired with the notation of my instrument voices.
if you liked the lyrics then i did a fine job and am glad i did not redo them.
i agree that the synths need some automation and there were points that i shoul dhave automated my basses. since the instruemnts were changing frequently i thought that a constant element was necessary. yet on the cd i think i will do what you said.
you are right about the focus of the song put into the first half. the last part felt like i had to write the squirrels destiny. basicly nothing changed for him, either he dies or continues to hunger
as for the outro i feel you are right, it was oddly included, yet i felt it needed to close the story.
THANKS for this awesome review!
Please contact me if you would like to use this in a project. We can discuss the details.
