I'm Heading Out (of my mind) | The creepiest rap sea shanty...

[@danbull]

You may have noticed I've been uploading far less this year. Unfortunately I've been ill and struggling to recover. I might make a video about this soon. But the good news is, this is the big video I've been working on the past few months. A tribute to the game "Dredge". I would love to hear what you think of this music and visual direction, and what you hope for me to do next Also this song is on Spotify: "I'm Heading Out (Of My Mind)" - listen here: open.spotify.com/track/0IuWW1xbkRMAyWoFoZqTsh?si=1dd6a013a63a476c

Picture this; you have taken a job on a small fishing boat. They were a crew of four, but now a crew of three, until you joined them. They all have their oddities. When the captain is steering, he does not seem to register the world outside the cabin. There have been no accidents yet, but you get the feeling he is not the reason for that. Your fellow fisher is less odd, but he is intimidating. However, on the nights of a new moon, you catch him staring out to sea. Sometimes, if you follow his gaze, you swear you can see a full moon reflected in the waters. He doesnt talk much, but he oft mentions something he calls "the leviathan". He talks about it like its existence is a fact that everyone knows. The strangest member of the crew by far is the navigator. You dont know how he navigates, as he has never left the lowest deck; perhaps your just noticing patterns that arent there, bur he never goes above water level. He reads strange books, and somehow his sextant still works, even without a view of the stars. He also never reports his navigation to the captain, but you get the feeling that wherever you end up is where he wants you to go.

Making a song for Dredge is so based, absolutely loved the unique ideas this game brought to the horror genre. It's genuinely amazing at terrifying you in the middle of the night and forcing you to be careful and fear everything around you, all while pushing you outside of your comfort zone. And goodness the story is beautiful.

[@amina_solars]

I’ve never seen Dredge before, but this song makes me want to check it out! I love how there’s some lyrics that call back to “Dive into the Madness” though, such as “deep down down below the waves” and “is it any wonder”. Both songs being about dark and insane people, both taking place out in the ocean, love it Dan! Also hoping that whatever you’ve come down with subsides soon :))

[@KaileyMacDonald-hw3jy]

I absolutely love how haunting and melodic your raps can be, all the while delivering such powerful lines. The up down up down, sea-shanty rhythm just satisfies everything that I look for in music. Your work is such an artistic inspiration for me, and it lends itself to visuals so well, it’s like each verse is a picture!

[@theofficialgoth]

On top of the ridiculously depth in the lyrics, you get this mix of horror, small orchestra/ensemble, digital, AND sea shanty. So good. Love your work, Dan. Can't wait to listen to this for the next 3 weeks.

We were asked to highlight some of our favorite phrases that create imagery from anything we were interested in for our creative writing class, and this is really one of my favorite lines because it's so well spoken and it illustrates how much this character's mind is breaking, it is just *chef's kiss*

[@DARKDRAGON2223]

thank you for creating this as this gave me an amazing idea for my next dnd session, players arrive at a very melody driven town where everyone is singing and dancing, due to an unseen force created by the malevolent spirit, here is a synopsis of what i have created all because of this song: this is what players will see as they first arrive at the town: As the players approach the town of Melodra, the first impression is one of deceptive joy and merriment. The town, nestled in a picturesque valley, appears to be a lively haven of celebration. Colorful banners flutter in the gentle breeze, and the buildings are adorned with vibrant flowers that spill over window sills. The streets are cobblestoned and well-kept, and the sun casts a warm, golden glow on the surroundings. **Joyous Atmosphere:** The air is filled with the infectious sound of music and laughter. Townsfolk, adorned in colorful attire, engage in spontaneous dances in the streets. Groups of children play games, and residents greet each other with smiles and embraces. The atmosphere seems genuinely jubilant, as if the town is caught in a perpetual festival. **Enchanted Performances:** Every corner seems to host a musical performance. Street musicians play enchanting tunes, and talented bards perform on makeshift stages. The melodies are catchy and uplifting, creating an almost hypnotic effect. Even the birds seem to join in, their chirping harmonizing with the ambient music. **Picturesque Setting:** The town's layout is picturesque, with small cottages adorned with blooming flowers and charming gardens. A central square features a grand fountain, its waters dancing in time with the lively music. The townspeople, seemingly carefree, go about their activities with an infectious zest for life. **Colourful Markets:** Melodra's market square is a bustling hub of activity. Stalls overflow with fresh produce, vibrant fabrics, and unique trinkets. Merchants enthusiastically hawk their wares, inviting the players to sample local delicacies and handmade crafts. The scent of exotic spices wafts through the air, adding to the sensory delight. **Intriguing Architecture:** Architecturally, Melodra boasts quaint buildings with pastel-coloured facades and intricately designed balconies. The town centre features a prominent lighthouse, its beacon shining brightly even in the daytime. The lighthouse is adorned with whimsical carvings that seem to depict scenes of joyous revelry. **Deceptive Charm:** However, upon closer inspection, there's an unsettling quality to the perpetual celebration. The smiles of the townspeople seem almost forced, and the dances have a rehearsed quality. The players might notice a subtle weariness in the residents' eyes, as if the joy is a façade concealing deeper turmoil. The enchanting melodies that permeate the air begin to feel oppressive, and the once-inviting atmosphere takes on an eerie undertone. It becomes clear that Melodra's happiness is not as genuine as it first appears. **Forced Symphony:** As the players traverse the streets of Melodra, they witness the bizarre spectacle of the townspeople locked in an unending, forced symphony. The haunting melody pervades every inch of the town, echoing through the air as the residents mechanically perform their roles in the twisted musical. **Cryptic Lyrics:** The lyrics, seemingly innocuous on the surface, carry a deeper meaning that hints at the solution to Melodra's curse. Lines like "Burn the lighthouse down" are sung with an unsettling cheerfulness, their true significance buried beneath layers of metaphor and subtext. Amid the haunting verses of "Heading out of my mind," the town's residents incorporate snippets from other seemingly unrelated songs, like "Oh, Tanali, mysterious bard" and "A symphony of secrets," creating a surreal medley of disjointed tunes. **Dark Truths:** As the players investigate, they uncover the horrifying reality behind Tanali Hhärkähai's disappearance. Contrary to the townsfolk's perception of him as a victim seeking revenge, they discover Tanali was a criminal with a gruesome history. He had preyed on the Mayor's young daughter, subjecting her to unspeakable horrors. **Buried Secrets:** The climax reveals Tanali's fate, as the players stumble upon his buried remains beneath the lighthouse. The buried alive symbolism echoes the town's complicity in burying the truth about Tanali's crimes. The lighthouse, once a symbol of guidance, becomes a macabre tomb, embodying the twisted justice sought by a tormented soul. **Twisted Infatuation:** Tanali's infatuation with the Mayor's daughter is exposed through hidden letters and macabre trinkets. The twisted narrative unfolds, portraying a man consumed by dark desires, justified in his mind by a distorted sense of love. The discovery adds a layer of psychological horror, challenging the players' perceptions of right and wrong. **Haunted Melody:** Upon solving the mystery and confronting Tanali's tortured spirit, the players face a moral dilemma. They must decide whether to lift the curse by exposing Tanali's crimes to the town or perpetuate the dark enchantment to maintain a facade of innocence. The haunting melody, once an instrument of torment, now lingers as a reminder of the town's complicity in its own suffering. if anyone wants to use this to expand their ideas for dnd sessions go right ahead im just a British dnd enthusiast that enjoys dnd.

The video, the set really fits the song very well and it adds to the atmosphere of it too. Plus making such a long song with the rhymes going and going without stopping and still sounding so very well made is just... amazing. You are one of the greatest musicians I know. Very well done.

[@brolymc9532]

This is the single greatest song i have ever heard. I cannot stop breaking it apart. This is your magnum opus to date.

[@MaksIvanov-qu5cj]

Dan Bull really love his fish 1:19

[@Gobble640]

he just like me fr

[@CarfDarko]

Another instant classic, and I love how you keep reinventing yourself as a creator

[@MrBazza-zi9qg]

If I had a nickel for every time Dan released a song about a lovecraftian sailing game, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happened twice.

[@Deconstruction_Administrator]

... What was the other one?

[@MrBazza-zi9qg]

@@Deconstruction_Administrator He made a Sunless Sea rap years ago.

[@ts9546]

literally on repeat.... i hope you feel better man thank you for all your effort and determination to share your pure creativity. Idk how these lyrics can be so dynamic.

[@Globbums]

I don't know how to say this, but Dan goddamn NAILS the "Insane fisherman" look from a bone-structure perspective. By the gods, this man was made for darker times.

[@laayiv9449]

Absolutely.

[@Jayden-s4e]

This pefectly incapsulates the horror of this game and is right down your alley. Perfect ounce more dan. Excited to see more from you this year

[@Nooben0]

so, 0:12. neptunes bounty is a bioshock reference, its not just me being crazy right? right?

[@TGYT-Gaming]

R-RR-Right?

[@ACupOfEverything]

I searched for this comment for way to long just to realize it didn't say stupendium and said bioshock soo I will still say "This is the same ship from dead ahead by stupendium"

[@GoogleUser-if3xi]

I really like this one man, as a fellow autistic guy I really appreciate the vocal and audio variation that you shape into many of your songs, from one scene to another there is always multiple voices or variation of your voice so much that it can hardly be connected to the scene before but enough that it shapes into a story. Seriously keep on trucking on absolutely love your stuff and cant properly explain it but I think you know as you actively shape your music as you do due to that... spark being a common trait in most of your music im assuming its intentional so ... thanks its hard to find stuff that I can appreciate like that. outside of a few creators you collab with such as stupendium also that angry gruff type voice you do makes my brain tingle

“Seaweed Everyday.”

[@MatheusSM1000]

This is probably my favorite piece of yours, it's insanely catchy and the flow is just super fun to listen to!

3:02 I JUST REALIZED THAT'S THE ANGLER'S MASK FROM INSCRYPTION

[@chanbae9769]

I KNEW I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO SAW THAT

[@LunaraGateKeeper]

A fabulous song, and I wish you all health and speed in your recovery, Dan.

[@samcahoon7078]

Dopest sea shanty I ever heard 🤯😎

[@kiwibird_gaming]

I just heard this for the first time today. I swear I heard some hints of the same inflection you had in the very first video I saw from you which was your Borderlands 2 rap. I thoroughly enjoyed both songs!

[@HamoriGX]

Dan bull is a type of rapper who can rap in the 70's age.

[@NailaHamzi]

Yep 😂😂

[@HamoriGX]

@@NailaHamzi ❤❤❤❤

[@woahdudeitsme9742]

Yup, subbed! I love how it turns like sailor acid rap in the middle there into a sort of horrorshanty at the end. Really good progression and consistent theme. Love it, love you. Not to mention the amazing video and editing adding to the aesthetic and feeling of the song.
