Off The Wall

Skirmish: Time-warp Tuesday - - Son... (@dudachris)Liner Notes
I participated in Time-warp Tuesday - Songs of Summer edition, hosted by dudachris! I already long for it to be summer. I'm sick of the weather already. Luckily I live in Texas so summer runs from about the end of April to the beginning of November. This is what I came up with in an hour. The length is kinda short since I opted for quick vocals and lyrics that were written in about 15 minutes. Think of it as like a dance or karaoke track minigame song. It's always a pleasure to use Mai. For a bank that was given to me for free for being a SynthV Studio Pro user, she's really well crafted.

Lyrics
Hey, you there, back to the wall Heed my voice now, hear my call Life's too short to pass up dancing Let's get moving, start romancing Wallflower, no need to be shy While it's summer, ride the high It doesn't cost a thing to try Just put your hands up to the sky Don't just stand there, move your feet Sway your body to the beat Summer's short and we're still young On borrowed time when spring has sprung Don't worry ' bout anyone but me Having fun is far too easy Just let loose and drown out the world Play all night, let it all swirl In summer, your voice can reach me When seasons change, I'm not listening Go all night 'til we drop Stay moving 'til the music stops Life's one never ending party You'll forget your worries, you'll see But only if you get off the wall And dance, now, let's rock

@kayo Can't find a function to reply so 😂 sorry if this isn't proper etiquette but thank you! Mai is just the particular synthesized voice I used on SynthesizerV. SynthesizerV operates a lot like how Vocaloid does, think like using any other digital instrument but for singing voices.

This is super fun - I'm not familiar with Mai! (what does that mean?) I love the dancey, sort of delirious feel of it. Nice track!

Mmmm this rhythm is really cool. I enjoy the vocal style, is that you or some cool automation? Also, the extra layer of loopy sound fun that kicks in at 1m brought me joy! I couldn't track the lyrics while listening (not a critique I'm just old) but looking over them they are well crafted too. Thanks for coming!

@dudachris Thanks! The voice is SynthesizerV Mai's voicebank. Mai's a virtual signing library for SynthV, a program that's sort of like Vocaloid but with a lot more quality of life features.
