Great production on this track.very infectious.love the way it transcends the gap between chill and dance type genres. this reminds me alot of Groove Armada. Chill enough to mellow out to and still maintain that head nod effect. Great Work!

Nice intro and build up into really cool melodic hook.
Than you just keep layering other cool stuff (vocals).
Nice break down than you take us home with the hook and vocal. really nicely constructed song. You used Acid or something similar? Anyway it's just a great feeling head bopping little gem a mellow and positive groove through and through.
GOOD WORK BRO

Great sound and mixture, a little to 'nice' or 'happy' for my tastes, but I can recognize quality aside from any biases I may have.

Just the right amount of vocal, fits perfectly and in key too lol thanks ! Love the arpeggios, great timbre as well.

Haha oh wow the irony, i've used that higher vox before too in a veryyyyy old project of mine. back when i was using acid pro still. This is sounding pretty clean cut though, the arps are nice. Would like to hear more effects of some sort to juice up the sound. Sometimes some distortion can help with that, if you know how to incorporate it. great track though man. peace

This has got a really cool old school electronic vibe to it (early Orbital / rave era). I like the way it flows and sends me to another dimension!

Cool as hell and equally enjoyable! Would like to download it! Great work my friend!

Man I like the snappy feel and the syncopation! I like also when you added the claps and picked up the drive and the breaks were spot on!! Excellent Mix. I also ventured in the the electronic genre for the first time in quite a while take a listen when you get the chance! Enjoyed!

Lyrics are literally just an absolutely abrasive and unrecognizable part of the verse to John Lennon's Working Class Hero which
illuminates my bullying more than any song I have come across ever.

Description : I wanted to create something similar to Celldweller's songs, but with a more upbeat vibe. :P

I created the vocals while benchmarking the vocal capabilities of various AI models: sound effects, transitions, etc. Modern AI models have already been reduced, so they won't be able to do that (I tried).

I used Audacity/OpenMPT (also audio2audio).

Description : I'm continuing the 'Unfiltered' Vol. 1 series, this is track 2.

Same as with track 1, i'm on the electric guitar/Squier Affinity series Stratocaster, drums and bass only in the beat, i kept percussion to a minimum to not distract from the guitar too much.

Made/recorded/performed in Reason 13.

Feedback is appreciated.
