space dust

Your production is always so right on. Like just absolute bangers every time. Do you need to go anywhere from here? I feel like this is kinda tight as it is, 90 seconds of slap.

Oooh i like the string arrangement paired with with gritty synth.

Does it need to go anywhere from here? I guess if you wanted to extend the song I could see a new section come in with some different chords and new feel. But I can also see this as a fun little interlude between longer tracks on a record.

Man you have such good pop sensibilities and know how to make a 90 second long banger.

Obsessed with your submission as always. So good. My mind always goes into arrangement mode when I listen to your stuff. All the elements are perfect, production is top notch. I feel like we can fuck with where each element belongs and when it should enter. Obviously mallets and vox coming in at the top together are hot hot hot- but what if we waited on the guitar to come in a little bit later. After you say “Chicago”? I also think that the mallets could come in and out- I think playing with the arrangement here could be really fun.

oh im all about the “hmmph” at :29. very well executed. “the sky is falling and im two nights from chicago.” im such a sucker for that kind of lyricism. hmm, from here? maybe something that feels more open? a spacier section could be a nice counterpart to the fuller sections you’ve already created.

Dude I love this. short and sweet and creepy. Definitely approaches motels from the creepy side of things, not the romantic side. Unless you find creepiness romantic.

Great atmosphere, and great job with the shaping of all these sounds. There’s a lot of rhythm, syncopation, melody, ideas, and voices, but you really succeed in keeping everything in this nice, controlled little space. Doesn’t occupy too much bandwidth in my ears. All the layers sound nice and either compressed, EQ’d, dampened, softened… I dont know… Maybe you can speak to how to kept all the parts tamed so that it’s not overwhelming. I’d be curious. There’s grit and mud in this song, but it doesnt sound gritty or muddy, if that makes sense.

If you told Tom Waits to write the sequel to The Real Slim Shady using nothing but a xylophone made out of bones, you’d get the first 24 seconds or so of this this song.

Love this – getting real EARTHGANG vibes here although I know they’re ATL not CHI haha. Loving all the little plucky rhythmic noises – the percussion and those plucky guitars blend together amazingly.
