JAMUARY DAY 16, one song a day challenge.

A bunch of people liked the loop of this but I felt like it got ruined it so it was shelved. Wasn't sure what to think of it in regards to the obnoxiously eccentric saw synth, kept muting and unmuting it trying to decide whether it was better or worse. Then I decided it didn't matter because I'm going ice fishing and building an igloo and my fiance is waiting for me to upload this and move my life along... errors be damned I'm going ice fishing >:C

Super elegant, and somehow peaceful among the usual chaos that's represented in your songs.

I don't know what else to say besides that piano f*cking slaps and it felt like a duel between synths and organic piano instrumentation. That singular beat drop where the piano hits a few keys on its own adds so much damn personality--I was literally taken aback. There's this really strong duel attitude that goes along with how hard that piano is trying to express itself.

Truly a delicate combination of an outspoken piano mixed alongside wild and whacky synths with an ending that takes me back off my feet.

You've been reading up on how to gush about music or something? This is the kind of review that deserves a big thank you!

THANK YOU.

5 stars just for the percussion. This was the right type of zany

Quarl responds:

Yay, thank you! I will cherish this 5 star as if it were a dragon ball.

Oh! I'll just be picking up my "give up" then!
Pretty good song! The way the song ends is unexpected but there's nothing wrong wit that

Quarl responds:

Yeah, that pitch bend ending was just so I could get out of the house before sunset. Really wanted to make this a better track but that's the same reason I never finished it in the first place. Worrying too much about maximizing quality can make you hate your own work for no reason and then you write less and fall into a musical death spiral. We can't have that : ]
