Liner Notes

#cello #loops #lofi #beats

I'm really having a blast with this cello. The existential dread is real, so this is me trying to talk myself out of wanting to vomit all the time.

Lyrics

Everything is indescribable
Everything is for your eyes alone
Everything is melody and sound
Everything is currents underground
Everything is far too much for words
Like trying to fit the ocean in a paper cup
Keep on looking up

Everything is chaos and cliché
Everything’s the same thing every day
Everything’s informed by what’s around
Everything is built on common ground
Everything is finding the integrity
When everywhere you look it’s all corrupt
Keep on looking up

They won’t get me down
Beauty all around
So many scary things
I’ll be the bird that sings

Everything is goin’ a bit insane when
Everything don’t fit inside your brain
Everything’s available for free
Don’t thank them for their generosity
Everyone is clamoring for space
Think they’re gonna win no matter what
Just keep on looking up

I enjoyed how eclectic this song is. Lots of cool instruments and a nice laid back vibe makes it easy listening.

The vocals were so good! Love the message in the lyrics, so unique.

Oooh, those harmonized vocals. A nice touch. I agree, the groove is contagious. A pretty damn fitting message, too.

The vocals quite literally make this sing. Nice harmonies and intertwining lines all supported by that subtle minimalist cello.

I was enjoying the groove as the song started, and then the vocals came in and just blew me away! Then the harmonies started and blew me away again! Then the overlapping vocals. Yes! Great job layering this arrangement. Great message and a really compelling song!

Your vocal harmonies are really lovely in this, and blend so well with the cello too, I really like the counterpoint - the beat and groove feel both laid back and urgent, and so does the message (but in a repeating affirmations calmly in a mirror way), awesome work
[avatar]
Oof yes. Groove and message .
