SOBER PUNK 2077

Phantosmia

It's over, over now,
I'm sober, so far, for now,
Called you every slur I know,
My broken thumbs and vows,
Too small for this loud town,
I'm sober, please come around,
But it's over, over now

It's over, over now,
I'm sober, so far, for now,
Called you every slur I know,
My broken thumbs and vows,
Too small for this loud town,
I'm sober, please come around,
But it's over, over now

Another Cymatics contest entry, this time for the 2024 SLAYER contest.

I got inspired by a vocal recording from the Slayer Beta Pack, which I've sped up from 135 to 165 BPM and created some harmony phrases for the bridge and the chorus (a 3rd above the original vocal melody). I've actually used the free audio editor Audacity for the time stretching, which - at least to my ears - produced the least artifacts.

The drums that I have sampled from a Roland TR 626 almost 30 years ago work like a charm on this one. Same goes for the electric guitar, a Hohner Rockwood LX100G I bought also 30 years ago. The pickups on that guitar are literally a bit rusty, but I love the crunchy sound of it and it fits the production perfectly.

Everything else has been taken from the Slayer Beta Pack by Cymatics, which you can download here: https://cymatics.fm/pages/slayer-beta-pack
The bass is a layered instrument I've created in Steinberg HALion 7 and it consists of 3 bass samples from the Slayer Beta Pack.
The bell-ish arp in the bridge and chorus is a Serum preset from the pack, all other sounds are single samples, either used directly (pitched to the correct note, of course) or as an instrument in a sampler track.

As always the complete production was done in Steinberg Cubase Pro. For mixing I've mainly used Steinberg stock plugins, plus a few from Waves. For mastering I've used the SSL Fusion VST plugins and Steinberg Raiser.

Enjoy listening!

Cyber Monday

Cyber Monday is a Synth pop Solo Artist, here to take you on a journey with his First Album "Store Credit". Taking the influences from his hobbies Shopping and Technology, he has always been fascinated by the ever popular "Cyber Monday" yearly event in which online sales rock the internet by storm.

Even though Cyber Monday is fairly new to the scene, he has been writing and producing music for over 12 years and this will be the first opportunity to release on Vinyl and Cassette format. The album features 10 synthpop, electropop catchy tracks such as "Phone Me", "The Pictures", and more darker "State of your Arm", and "I'm in Love with a Terrorist"

"Looking At Me" is about the camera on your laptop, though it looks switched off, it is constantly watching your every move.
"Physical Attraction" his most popular track is about someone who has been online dating and has fallen in love with his so called other half. Will he buy that expensive diamond ring because he believes that he knows and loves this person.
"State of your Arm" is about a domestic trap and the deep hole of debt that can take over.
"The Pictures" is about the cover up and edited models that exist on the internet and the fascination of perfection that doesn't actually exist. The album continues with more fascinating tracks.

This album is truly sensational and every one features Cyber Monday's vocals and are all original tracks.
