Said The Goat

Liner Notes

It could reasonably be said that my output is all over the place this year. Thought I'd have a quick play in Ableton this morning and just see what happened. It was this, goats and all.

This progresses nicely as you open up the beat and shift gears at the middle point. Some gnarly effects going on here, and I only just realised there was goats contributing towards the end once the other elements dropped out! Could have fooled me

Damn those goats really do come in clutch during FAWM when you’re stuck. Probably why they’re the G- alright. Did you use some of the chance functions on Live for that section as well? Can’t seem to get a handle on that stuff like you can. Big love for this.

Seeing as nobody else nor your liner mentioned it: I assume you know the literal translation of ‘chupacabra’ is ‘goat sucker’?

the build up at the start is awesome. this song takes you all over the place, doesnt it? love the randomness of it all. And goats. ha

Yoooo, this bleat is SIIICCK. Definitely one of the best songs I’ve herd this yearling. Can’t billy-ve this hasn’t goat more listens

This would be better with MORE GOATS honestly but I suppose maybe it’s more versatile/tasteful as is?! actually also dumb suggestion number two: you should have put some horns in here.

LIke the opening punchy chords - nice choice. the arpeggiated piece and the thud thud give the drive and then the breakdown into a new section is quite unexpected but great fun - the seemingly random lines in the bell pad are really interesting and textured with goats is a new and innovative soundscape - never thought I'd write that sentence. This is a super fun dance piece - great bit of work.

the decay of that distortion is wicked - that sound could be a song of its own! great opening act - nice flow with the arrangement. has a nice lofi feel (everything in the lowend) - kinda sounds like tape - and then the break into braindance rhythms - definitely feels oldschool - sorta like old aphex twin tracks recorded to c90 cassette. a productive quick play!!

A frustrating lack of goat puns I can make on this 😡 I thought we were going to settle into that downtempo house feel, and I thought maybe the goats were hidden in those quick fire one shots around 00:50. Then the total sea change and the goats are very clearly there haha. I finally have a song to soundtrack this PS upload from 2017..

Electrotastic! The goats are surprisingly subtle 😀
