DOWN IN MEXICO - CitizenMofo

Description : Combo of trap and spoken word. I wanted to do something ridiculous and fun. No big theme. No politics. Just fun lyrics and a ridiculous story. And a deep bassified voice, because even though it's ridiculous, it sounds better. To me anyway. But what do I know?

The music is this amazing piece by BradoSanz:
https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/168513

It's a trap that's been looking for a rapper since 2015, and never found one. Brado says it was his first trap, which is incredible because to me the piece is flawless. A great trap beat gets my lyrical juices flowing anyway, but this goes way beyond that. It's a full-on song structure, with evolving repetition and booming returns. There's a lot of beautiful intricacy in the music (which is all orchestrated loops from looperman) that keeps it interesting from start to finish. The more I listened to it and worked with it, the more appreciation I had. The lyrics came very easily, as though they rose up right out of the music and I just had to catch them. I hope I didn't mess it up too much with my vocals. The only thing I changed was to lower the volume to fit the vocals in.

I hope you have fun listening to it!

Great track - the production sound is not that bright but the sound is still very good and the vocal and melody lines work really well

A track from 2018 still in featured? Glad i hear it now cause it is a fun track to listen to. Like the melody a lot. The vocals could be a notch clearer but all in all a great track!

This is ridiculous.
It's also fun.
I love it!
Creativity against the norm!
It is very listenable for a person like me who is also a little weird .... apparently.
It's the normals you have to be aware of.
Very enjoyable listen.

I didn't find it ridiculous may be because it wasn't easy for me to catch the words sense owing to the voice filter :) usually (and as english is not my natural language, i don't often understand all the spoken lyrics).

tHe instrumental part is awesome and the effect on the bass is really cool. i'm less fan with The tone of the synth lead.

Great track

Description : I like to play with myself... Thats not how that sounded in my head lol. I finally am satisfied with my digital VST band. I have a Drum, Bass, Lead Guitar, Rhodes/Keyboard, Synth and some go-to Vocals.
Now all I need is some good ideas for tracks and more practice on my Mix/Mastering game.
This track is a slow 97.5 "Chill-ish", I'm trying out my new Band :)

PEACE...

Description : This short audio introduces MossFree Shoreline, a roof care service based in Shoreline, Washington. It explains how moss spreads across wet Pacific Northwest roofs, creeps under the shingles, and holds moisture against the roof all year long, and how a gentle soft wash removes that moss without damaging the shingles. It also covers the other services mentioned in the audio: moss treatment and prevention, gutter cleaning, and roof leak detection. roofmossremovalshorelinewa.com

Description : Made with a good amount of out of tune on a very minory chordy tuning I did about a week or two ago.

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.

I named it bandit as a sort of that's what you get to society for people like me
