[say no more]

Step 1 completed.

Do you know step 2?

[Easy Duet]

Oh, *that's* chill. I love this vibe.

Hey, I don't know if you've actually got those vocs done or not, but if you'd like I can try my hand at the piece.

It is in my experience to share that forcing it usually won't go too well.

I'd much prefer a nice, simple, I-C-V-C-V-SC-C-O format that takes 4 years to complete and blows my mind to hear it the first time. Think of like... Boston.

But I've seen simple loops go for *marathons* beyond expectation in my past. If you ask me, that's no accident either.

I think they might like it, too. Heh.

At any rate, YO! Your music makes the air smell cleaner around me. I'll take it as perfection.

I enjoy the vocs that are there in this track already, btw. I can almost see the rhythm arrows, which always makes my heart sing.

You may look at looping it just a bit smoother, if at all possible...

10/10 would and will recommend. Looped for like 10 mins and I didnt even notice until I was done after the first one. Bravo!

Merry Christmas!

Vista-Sound13 responds:

It'd elate me to see you try your hand at the piece. I'd love for anyone to try really.

Anyway, I tried to make looping smoother before, but the MP3 was just stubborn; it was annoying.

And, for your information, I am producing loops and full pieces so that there is more variety of pleasure and utilization. ;)

As always, I appreciate you leaving a detailed report on this piece. :)

And about the vocals, it's not my voice, like, at all. I grabbed a vocal sample and transmogrified it into a chromatic scale. It's really not that hard. The hardest part is finding a good and suitable vocal sample.

[DEVOTION]

Why did you have to release it early?

Remember that the answer is: You did not.

This song is a complete work of art, and you deserve only the highest of fives, my dude.

*plap*

pedkan responds:

im happy you liked it!

[Pixel Storm]

THIS IS A MASTERPIECE.

That chiptune just... buzzes my brain in all the right corners, you know? I think it's because you made it for somebody else, if I had to guess. But I'd also guess you're a wildly talented and experienced musician who loves deeply and truly.

Thank you so much for this. And for including that amazing bit of trumpet prowess. Trumpet is such an underrated instrument these days.

You have made me feel warm and fuzzy. 11,842 characters remaining, but even if I filled the box it wouldn't convey how incredible this piece is. Seriously. I mean that 128%

You might note that I added this to my "How I Feel" playlist, which previously only included songs that I had a part in creating. Well, this was so worthy of the list, I altered the description of the list and decided it will be the last submission, because this is how I hope everybody feels at the end of it all.

Merry Christmas, RedCocoa. And I don't know who SkittleWaffle is [I've an idea, but my ideas are so frequently wrong that I'll just let it go and accept the peace of anonymity] but I think you should always remember how lucky you are to have people in your life willing to craft such masterpieces for you. They have true and real love. And because they do, so do you.

<3

RedCocoa responds:

Thank you so so much! I almost teared up reading this, you have definitely made my night. If I feel down at any point in the next two months I'll just think of this message and I'm sure I won't be able to feel sad.

A great Christmas to you too! Have a great time :D

[[Challenge] X3ll3n - Relax]

You have no idea how badly I needed this.

This song sounds like something I would pay good money to put on a CD. As such, it's an incredible gift that you've given it to us for free. I thank you for your generosity, and I only ask that you never lose that trait. You are an angel.

[Post-response edit]:
Yes, proper credit where proper credit is due is always nice...

I started out with much the same concept in mind. All my music was to always be for free; that was the price I told myself I had to pay. But [spoiler alert] it was paid cost, all along.

Don't beat yourself up so bad, okay? Not every song is gonna amass 5 stars, no matter how hard you try. That doesnt make it a futile effort. It makes it that much more meanigful when it actually does happen.

Have yourself a merry little christmas, my friend.

Oh, and hey, you can have the commercial rights to Paid Cost if you buy them from Pacific. Shouldn't be too expensive. Actually... You know what? I may have purchased them for like $20 back in 2019. You'll have to hit up Pacific and see what they say.

Here's the song:

Hit me up if they say you're all good, that way I can clearly consent to every usage of the track. Much love! And don't mention the follow! XD

X3LL3N responds:

It just kinda happened, always cool to try new things. Besides, I pride myself in having all my musics free to use (with proper credit) :)

Thanks for following by the way, it means a lot to me ^^

[Then The Sky Rained Fire]

00:03

Yes.

00:23

Haunting, but not daunting.

00:37

Loving those chord changes.

00:50

Alright. Thats intense and unpleasant.

01:11

LOVE THE CHOIR

01:20

WHAT A CRESCENDO

01:33

WHY AM I SHOUTING

01:47

Alright. I gotta tap out, man. This is so incredibly intense and upsetting I can't complete the course.

01:49

Oh, but I knew the sacrifice when I said the words: Be Human. So we carry on.

02:10

Alright. I can do this.

02:28

Fuck. I can't do this.

02:37

Second WIND!

02:45

LETS GO

02:51

YEHAAW MOTHERFUCKERS

02:59

We did it. <3

....but why does my back hurt so intensely?

AceMantra responds:

You made it past the trials, congrats! Thanks for listening!

[moonlighting]

Job was blessed in the end specifically because of their adherence to their faith in the face of adversity. If you're a fan of the Bible I'd suggest James 1:2-3.

You have a gorgeous voice, and whoever did the piano/guitar/mixing/everything-the-hell-else KILLED it on this track. The crescendo was so subtle I hardly felt it before I realized that we were at FF.

The lyrics... oh, the lyrics. Any combination of words I could dream up- all of them- would be reductionist by comparison. I mean that. This song spoke to me in a way that most songs do not. Bra-fucking-vo. I mean that.

I look up to you. This. Too. Shall. Pass.

[Electronic Rain]

Oh, that’s nice. I needed this. Oh!! That DX-EP-sounding synth is just so nice. This brought peace where peace was needed. Thank you.

[we out here (feat. Kawai Sprite)]

You and KawaiiSprite out here killin it- you’ve got such a unique flow. Cold doesn’t begin to describe it, but it’s the only word that can embody what I feel from your lines. Frigid apathy. Artistically frigid apathy.

And I love it.

Keep doing you. Can’t wait to see you on stage one of these days.

[Entertained (feat. Kozmic)]

Those polystyrene amphetamines flashing on computer screens really do be inspiring a lot of ire from society these days.

It’s very nice to see society waking up. Thank you for your service, you beautiful wordsmith, you.

Your flow is insane. The way you swing between the beats, the way you switch up from fast to slow without effort… good stuff, yo. Good stuff.

Who is it that you’ve been listening to? I am curious.

James 1:2-3
