…nice

This is like an old-school electro banger. Right at home at the industrial warehouse rave scene. Masterfully crafted and dutifully delivered, my friend. Always a pleasure to see you’re still in the game!

X-500 responds:

Great thanks, for good and honest review! Is very motivating become even more advanced in the musical field.

This is my voice. This is my rage. I did not consent to this usage of my voice, and I would prefer if it was taken down because I was not aware of the recording at the time it was taken.

I do however recognize artistic freedom, and I understand that if I wanted nobody to hear it, then I ought not to have said it in the first place.

That said, I am going through a mental health crisis right now, and that's no secret. Kittiemarie has forced my hand in releasing this track; in that I have to tell you this is not who I am, this is not who I want to be, but this is a mask I crafted from abuses when I was younger. It's a mask that only comes out when I have been put in fight-or-flight mode, and it is a mask I am having difficulty destroying.

The things I said were real, not satirical, and recorded against my consent. They were also released without my consent, and as such I believe they are inflammatory and potentially detrimental.

I told Kittie she could use this with my consent IF she changed my voice to be unrecognizable as DJDj, as this rage response is not the person I want represented in DJDj. She refused. So I submit this to the community for review.

You all have been so kind and supportive over the years. I trust your judgement on whether or not this is fair game.

Kittitemarie, please take this down. I can't force you to listen, but I can beg you to please have mercy and know I am working on myself. That is why the therapy.

That is why I am homeless even though my name is on the lease, and you and your three kids for whom Ive cared free of charge for two years live there without me.

Even though I've been cleared as mentally stable by multiple institutions.

Kittiemarie responds:

According to indiana law, where this was recorded, I do not need your consent to record as long as I (who was the other half of the conversation), consented to the recording. The recording is my artistic and intellectual property.

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.

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!

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

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 ^^

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!

Oh, I love this so much…

Such a smooth flow, such a wonderful voice, such a killer beat, too! I love your honest flow. You’re goin places, never quit.

“My heart will always belong to you”

supafreshpjs responds:

needed this lol thanks

I am holding back tears, this is so beautiful. Thank you for this.

EDIT: 2:42 and I've lost it.

I listened through the end. This is a masterpiece.

StDani responds:

I have a 2nd remix of Heathens it's much better! Check it out!

“This EP is a collection of seperate songs written during the last few years, they all seemed to align when I put them together.”

I- truly- have never heard a more beautiful representation of the universe.

That you used GameBoy makes me want to cry with happiness. Thank you so much for creating this beautiful testimony.

I see you. 💚✨😻

jamatar responds:

Thanks so much for listening and for the kind words :)
