Liner Notes

I think I have broken the pattern of 'song 13 is usually very good'. 'Cause this one is... #strange. Fun, but strange.

The goal was to depict that restless urge to try new things that someone I know has. My original idea was to make a #fast #piano piece with many unrelated sections. However, I liked the first thing I made, so I expanded on that, and before I knew it, I had a song. I still think it depicts restlessness, so I still find it fitting, so I kept the original title.

Hahaha, it sounds strange indeed. And like a little stupid computer game, like pacman or a bit more advanced, with a little man you have to follow the parcours, but it keeps dropping off of cliffs etc…. Anyway, strange but I like it. It shows great insight and feeling for music. With Many layers, effects etc. #tit4tat

The restlessness really comes through. I started to feel quite fidgety while listening. It really delivers on that front. Wonderfully strange and whimsical listen!

I can feel the restlessness here, and it's fun! It's like a good kind of restlessness, like when you're excited about something that's going to happen and you just can't wait. I like the different layers going on. I don't think it really sounds weird at all! It sounds like the precursor to going on an adventure.

Wow! I don't think this is strange at all!! So well done! I didn't get restlessness as much as I got capriciousness or impetuosity -- it's a frolic! I also love how it's mixed -- swirling about my head with playfulness! The sounds are all wonderful and wonderfully balanced! Terrific work!

I love songs that happen like that. It's fun to just follow an idea, and see where it goes. It's certainly worked out here. The way the "size" of the soundscape swells and shrinks is really cool. You must enjoy soundtracks? The two I've hear feel like that, this one maybe behind an animated game of some sort? refreshing listen!

it could reflect restlessness, or might also be an occasion for a particularly energetic workout on the dance floor. i know that i was moving my leg in time with the beat.

I have to say I love everything about this. It sounds kind of like a 90s video game (to someone who know NOTHING about video games) - I can just imagine some wholesome colourful part-animal-part-human pixelated character charging along busting stuff in 2D to this. Love the piano, love the other keyboard sounds and the random strings. I also love the primary colour background on the soundcloud file. It goes. #tit4tat

Ohhhh, this is so lovely! Love the stereo ping pong, and how happy and frolic-y the song is. If this broke the pattern I need to go listen to your other songs!

this is strange AND very good i like the bounciness it has like the notes are running around in circles bouncing around one another
