[Meuny - Mangled Plastic]

she's giving plastic beach b-sides instrumental realness xoxo

Meuny responds:

I honestly can't imagine 2-D singing on this track, but if you say so :P

[Goodbyes]

Not much I can articulate here beyond, I found this one very moving and I really appreciated the gradual build towards catharsis.

Solacitude responds:

If you found it moving, I guess I succeeded at making my music talk, which is all I could ask for.
Thanks for the review! 😊

[Don't Want Nobody Else - Record Tempo Sure]

Don't see the Neutral Milk Hotel parallel personal, but I really dig the vibes you're bringing to this. Kinda has that Aaron West and the Roaring Twenties thing going where there's pop punk sensibilities but it's complicated by a unique structure and approach. There's a little flavour of Abbey Road in here too which is neat. Keep it up!

recordtemposure responds:

ABBEY ROAD 🔥 thanks!!

[Be Happy]

The amount of 'We Have The Facts and We're Voting Yes' emanating from this track is just peak. Honestly floored by how clean the mix is and yet how unique the instrumentation feels despite sounding so comfortably familiar (getting shades of Eels, Damon Albarn, Placebo as well as early Death Cab), like the guitar line that comes in over the breakbeat type glitchout stuff hits on an immediate level without requiring my listener brain to listen to it multiple times before fitting it into a conceptual schema that sounds gratifying and catchy. Also the spoken word sample is very nicely chosen. Didn't recognise it at first but Midnight Gospel as a show really matches that ambient disatisfaction the vocals and lyrics capture. Gonna have to stick this on in the car sometime, thanks for making it!

SkankyMojo responds:

Wow thank you so much! You've warmed my heart there, I feel seen. Thank you for listening. <3

[Scale Of Time]

Really nice peice. Can hear a lot of really nice themes that could be developed into motifs or refrains -- particularly 0:48-52, really sounds like it belongs to the mid section of a really haunting leitmotif from a film score. 0:39-41 is a lovely swell as well, because it's an improvisation it doesn't necessarily feel structurally considered but it's a real highlight and worth writing up on Sibelius imo. My only constructive crit is that it 0:30 sounds like a slip up either on the note down an octave or as a minor pressing of the rhythm, but if so you manage to hold it together really well by repeating the same flavour again shortly after. Looking forward to more of your compositions, keep it up!

Solacitude responds:

Thank you very much! You got it right, it's not structurally considered, you're tapping into the creation process here, the loop comes from a longer improvisation session. Starting with absolutely nothing in mind for the structure, I let inspiration flow freely, sometimes adapt to imperfections. The slip up was not perfect but it was intentional :) There's another one at 4-6 sec, it's the scale of time changing! Thanks for the review!

[Their Gender ambiguous]

Pure pink noise vibes. Don't normally f with drum and bass too much but this has sufficiently queer energy and Hideki Naganuma vibes to sell me. Really like the breakbeat glitchout at 3:00 too. Keep it up <3
