I'm sure that...
Insomnia, caffeine posioning and too much computer could instead of fresh air and physical excercise lead 20-years old male to an insanity. Here's the proof, which I can call just "a mp3-track", because I'm not sure does *music* like that exists or can I call this "music". I'm a lousy tracker, too. Okay.
It has a bass, beat and melody, just the theme is something, that makes this thing weird.
How weird things actually happen...
I sat by my machine, and ate sandwhich with sausage on it, desperately trying to make something music-like with SoundClub. I do it often.
I started to think about sandwhich I was eating, then about humans eating meat and vegetarians.
I was tired, as I usually am. And I was weirdly sensitive, a hurricane of emotions attacked me, which usually lead me to creating something stupid.
So...
I tried to make some kind of a melody, and actually succeeded, then, led by my thoughts about animals that people eat, felt sorry about them. Then I came to an idea (negative maybe), to make song for them. For dying for of human race. So, hour later, I stopped myself and asked "what the hell am I doing?!".
It...
Is a song which is made thinking about poor innocent cows waiting to be killed in meat factory. As seen on TV once, they ride on conveyor belt to a metal plate which kills them with electric shock. Yes, cruel.
I called it "Death Dance of Electricity" and well, I'm not even sure why I did put this up here. Maybe to share my insanity. Anyway, I don't suggest you to listen it.
Unless you happen to be extremely optimistic person, who just gets a good laugh. Then it's absolutely okay. But I'm afraid of much more serious reactions, too... Then again, there was an AGS game which made me feel same way that this song does. I don't remember its name or creator, though, but it was about a suicide and something else like that. Agony. Right. I should been named this song to "Agony". Or "Sick".
I used...
Soundclub, Audiocatalyst (for mp3 conversion), my large bank of *stolen*samples, plus some WAVs from SimFarm.
Anyway, you've been warned.
And I suggest to tune treble down in your mp3 player.

Whoa, this really is a big file, but anyway i've downloaded it and i can say, well it doesnt want to start. :-\
WinAMP and Mediaplayer don't like it
try converting it again i suggest
I was able to get it to play, but all 7 minutes of it happened in 15 seconds.. so.. hmm.
was it a rockin' 15 seconds tho?!
Oi! It's not good to cheat people with broken mp3 file.
Didn't know it, sorry.
So, I fixed the file, mp3 compression *and* the link (see first post). I even downloaded it by myself to be sure everything works.
The server I'm using seems to be down sometimes (not very often), so if you can't see my avatar, you'll probably get a broken link, BUT this'll change in few hours or a day. It just happens sometimes. So don't bother complaining.
Actually, I wanted to put up S3M version, but soundclub converted it too badly, most of stereo effects, instruments and long samples were damaged or removed, so it remains 4,91MB MP3. :(
Anyway, if there happens to be people, who think that they could finish the Ultimate Ear/Nerve/Mental health/Speaker Quest, It's working now and is freely downloadable.
AND, if someone wants .sn2 version (SoundClub (http://www.bluemoon.ee), editable),
just PM me.
Hah! Cool! It's a very interesting premise, and I can really imagine cows doing a sort of slow weird dance to some techno, while riding on a conveyor belt.
The music itself is also very well done, although it can get a bit repetitive. Maybe you should spice it up a bit, perhaps add a couple more instruments with a different sound - I noticed you've got a lot of piano (Bright Piano setting? :P) and that strange sort of scratchy electric instrument, and drums of course, as well as the occasional guitar and bell.
All of 'em have a hard sound to 'em, a sort of thump if you think about it, and it might be more interesting to add in some "softer" instruments, perhaps wind instruments or maybe even an organ besides that sort of underlay you seem to use throughout the whole piece. Although that sounds more like a "Fantasy" sample.
Anyway, just my two cents. Ciao.
i cant hear it...
About 30 in to the song the piano reminds me of P:DA.
Cool though.

Whoooo!
Messy but cool.
