5/4 is somehow very depressing

Upon doing a song in 9/8, it was suggested I do something in 5/4 because its equally if not more confusing
I made a chord progression, booted up a random pad, and it sounded super sad but it was pretty inspiring idea-wise so I made a song out of it.
Pretty repetitive and unrefined (I made it in 2 hours) but considering how the song is I think I can get away with it being a little sloppy and pass it off as "intentionally distorted" lmaoo

the drums are straight out of a 2000's horror game

[@LucklessLex]

this has the vibes of a once cheerful protagonist breaking down and giving up

[@scuffedcovers]

well said

[@bity-bite]

The beginning reminds me of a song that I'm unable to remember...

[@cavemanooga]

Is it At The River by Groove Armada? That's what I hear.

[@rebelli65]

Ever so vaguely reminds me of Child in Us by Enigma, but that is a bit clearer and lighter. I swear I’ve heard this too before…

[@magpiecore]

farewell fire by boards of canada

[@Kvjesm2]

[@giovannicardenas6074]

Lore of 5/4 is somehow very depressing momentum 100

[@tgrey_shift..mp334]

Reminds me of the background music to a horror visual novel!

[@EmmanuelSummers64]

You are underrated. This music sounds like a man sitting in darkness looking back at his life

[@fitlentagreelin2301]

Creepy vibes, I dig it!

Song that makes me miss Silent Hill 3 for the PS2

[@leninistefrancophonefache]

The drum and guitare tone remind me of the halo 2 soundtrack.

[@ChristianVespucci]

Wow the effects coming in at the end got to me 😁

[@krakenofledeep6127]

Ayo shout out to my boy kohan he definitely found this video before producing a beat

[@BananaJuice-ue6pi]

Or the scale you chose for the song (dot dot dot) I like it tho

[@VoidySan]

The drums rip... Please spill on those..

[@MrMeowwMeoww]

All the drums are are Steven Slate Drums (the free ones) put through a filter, bitcrush, and reverb, all of which are kilohearts plugins that come in the free effects bundle ;)

[@VoidySan]

[@MrMeowwMeoww]
