rural legend 2,128 Posted December 23, 2021 This is a rough demo of a song I wrote a couple of months ago. Klaus played the piano on this one. WARNING: This is not a cover of Lana's Thunder 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BluVelvUnderground 1,754 Posted January 15, 2022 So, after doing around 130 songs throughout 2021, the time of year came to make my official compilation, which I guess constitute better "official albums" than my overwhelming workaholic projects I do throughout any year. This is Same as It Ever Was, a total of 14 tracks recorded from December 2020 to December 2021. What a weird year. Personally, it's been rough. Rough enough for long conversations of saddest of sad things with so many people around me, including loved ones who normally exude such beauty. Don't get me wrong, all the people are amazing, but it's hard not to feel like... a little melodramatic in order to cope with it. I've long been interested in themes of collapse of all varieties, and especially am open with my mental health and experiences within my songwriting, but this is the year where everybody viscerally feels about the same way. So, with that in mind, I decided 2021's mood was somber, bittersweet, content, but really fucking miserable and practically grieving over the future. It's a mixture of electronic and sound collage, but through a pop structure. Not really aiming at bops, so I'm sorry about that - but I hope you can experience a painted picture of my past year; it's highs and lows, but mostly being high out of my fucking mind, and bummed out. Share it with the world! <3 https://littleboyvelvet.bandcamp.com/album/same-as-it-ever-was-compilation _ _ _ _ And here's last year's compilation if you are at all interested: https://littleboyvelvet.bandcamp.com/album/2020-compilation 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alexspears 511 Posted January 20, 2022 https://linktr.ee/alexfutris i have put out the most upbeat, conventionally pop, catchy and romantic song i've made in thirteen years ! it really really means a lot to me~ it's a sweet love song to my incredible partner if you guys gave it a listen i would be beyond grateful i also think you may genuinely enjoy it and forget this is just some guy in his basement~ there's lots of fun vocal chops and manipulation, and the layers sound almost a percussive instrument at times? album art is by me as well 1 Quote Here is a link to all streaming services where you can stream my new single, "The Prophecy" Critics are saying: "It's pretty much the best thing ever" - Anthony Fantano and "It would be super cool if you listened to it. It may surprise you with how not-bad it is. It's actually pretty good" - a genuinely unbiased and actual casual pop music listener Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yourolllikethunder 4,843 Posted February 4, 2022 I released my second song ever today, called “cherry picker”! It’s a dream pop (tinged with a little indie/alt rock) song inspired by Mazzy Star / Cocteau Twins / The Sundays / The Cranberries. I wrote and self-produced it in my home studio when I was struggling with undiagnosed mental health issues. It’s a letter to the happier side of me, the “cherry picker” with the sunny disposition that I felt abandoned me when I was at my lowest. I’ve since started therapy and it was the best decision I ever made! It helped me to realize that being a happy and sad person are not mutually exclusive, and feeling both so deeply has made me the person I am. I’m sure some of you can relate! If you listen, I hope you enjoy it 🍒❤️ LB has always been so kind to my music and I get excited to share with my favorite Lana fans! http://heddy.lnk.to/cherrypicker 5 Quote I write/release my own music—if you’re bored, you can stream my witchy ode to 90s alt/shoegaze, 2:30 is 🔥 👀 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
