Happiest Death Of Our Lives

Author Comments

So I asked my friends on Discord to give me some song ideas and I'd cram as many of them into one song as possible. It seemed like a good idea at first, then the suggestions came in:

"Death Metal with an impossible guitar solo"

"Add a kazoo"

"A bridge where all the instruments go silent except for a Theremin and a Cowbell"

"A Hurdy Gurdy with Nordic throat singing"

My friends were purposefully trying to give me bad ideas, but I actually had a lot of fun making it. I don't normally make a genre like this, but it got me thinking. What if I ask you, dear users: What should I put in my next song?

State a genre, an instrument, or something "in the style of." Post your ideas in your review below, or in the comments of my blog post, and I will try my best to incorporate as many as possible.

I really love this idea. Great production based on the suggestions given. My ONLY gripe would be the mix, specifically in the beginning. There's like a very annoying 'sub bass'y sound that really stands out and just hurts my ears to listen to. My best guess is that it's coming from the palm muting part, that maybe that low end is up too high or something. If you scooped that low end out of the mix to prevent that wobbly bassy effect, man, I would jam to this song so hard. Great writing all around though.

Side note: Bring those drums up in the mix a bit man! They could cut through so much more that it would bring this to a whole new level!

AceMantra responds:

Hey, thanks for the great review! I agree with the drums being a little weak. I was having a little trouble making them sound more heavy. As for the sub bass, I'll have to look into the root cause of that. Thanks again, I'll keep all that in mind next time.

Listening to this makes it feel like something is chasing after me.

also... might be one of the only times a kazoo will ever sound epic

Great composition, I really like it!

What about using PVC pipes in next song?)
