first time participating in a music contest like this, hope every other participants are doing well in the contest and i wish you all the best
i participated in this just for fun as well as letting people listen to the stuff i made, hope you had fun participating as well
and i'm quite new here so apologize if i don't know too much stuff around here
*(note : song might sounds louder or bad on some devices especially smaller ones)
this is also the first time i make a song this short as i got used to making songs that go up to 5-7 minutes but the amount of time i wasted on finding good roblox music (they're short most of the time) really paid off as it helped me how to make an efficient song that has only 1 minute in length
and i apologize for that embarrasing cut at the end, yes i know the 2nd rule exists but i did this just to make sure and i like to challenge myself sometimes
(if the audio player rounds it up to 1:01, i will explode)
anyways, this song genre is big beat (sub-genre of breakbeat) which estimately died out around 2005 so i don't know if people would enjoy these kinds of songs nowadays but at least i liked it and it's great to make one of my most favorite music genre despite lacking of overall popularity and attention nowadays
(edit : the prodigy - timebomb zone, which was uploaded in 2018 has 20m views while being a big beat song so it maybe not that dead maybe ?)
this song took me several days to make, mostly spending on improving and fixing the song and other being just making it, despite i enjoyed making the song, the mastering process is just irritating most of the time as i have to spend a lot of time making the song sounds "normal" since some sounds just sounded too high or too low and i had to use like a lot of equalizers to make them sound somewhat better, not perfect but at least somewhat better
(this is the case for literally every song i make beside the simple, basic ones)
i used lots of old music stuff to make this song sounds old school, like the usage of acid synths, guitar samples,
this song was inspired by lots of old media and stuff, ranging from the main melody itself to the name
for example, the name was inspired by one of my favorite big beat song "pechengroup - mmm a unique person" (the song wasn't uploaded onto youtube so it's very hard to find but it was included in one of the big beat music complication)
another inspiration came from old action movies like matrix and blade 1998 which have big beat songs that helped me constructed this song more properly as well as choosing the most fitting melody for the song
the usage of acid synths and amen break snares are somewhat inspired by the first drop of an old big beat song from the 90s, "barbitura - poison"
and as you can hear in the song, you can hear some lyrics in it which was made by the iconic daniel text-to-speech voice by nuance (a.k.a the mlg voice that was used a lot back in the old meme era as well as the iconic drum n bass song, pendulum - blood sugar)
lyrics :
"mmm sandwich"
"grilled bacon sandwich"
and last but not least, the song was made in fruity loops studio (fl studio) by image-line
and since i do not have that much stuff to work with, you might recognize some sounds in this song if you used fl studio a lot as i used a lot of stock sounds in fl
bpm is 130, the same good ol' default bpm of fl studio as well as the ideal bpm for a big beat song
and if you're curious, this song is just about a guy who just started his day but realized he's out of sandwiches so he went into a store to buy the ingredients, found out there aren't enough so he headed to another store, returned home once got enough ingredients, made a grilled bacon sandwich and started his day like every usual person would do
(how i got this idea is mostly based on that one sweet sweet sandwich my mother used to make for me as a breakfast meal few years back)
now let's talk about the cover image, the sandwich used in the picture is actually from wikipedia as i couldn't find any more fitting picture in google image (also you can find it here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich)
then the image was tinted red (inspired by "the prodigy - fire" music video) and applied some contrast effect as well as the zoom blur effect (inspired by "the prodigy - fat of the land" album cover with the crab in it)
and the text "mmm sandwich" used the green mountain font, the font that was used in the old and iconic macromedia flash player as well as old macromedia shockwave
i used mostly paint.net for this cover image but i also used a little bit of gnu image manipulation program for extra effects
(if you somehow have captain disillusion's eyes and spotted the weird "cover up" on the upper part of the image and questioned about it, it was where my name used to be but i covered it up as the song will be anonymously voted later on and i do not want people who are obsessed over me to give me an unfair advantage)
anyways, that's all for the description, don't know what else to add more
and yes, feel free to use my song, just like every other songs i posted here
comments, thoughts, criticisms are appreciated
also, i will be extending this song as well as publishing it in other places when the contest is over
(might use it for my upcoming games as well)
and thanks for reading this whole "essay", hope you had a great time reading it as well as listening to the song
p.s: i spent wayyy too much time thinking and typing this but at least i made something
edit : wow, the views skyrocketed, interesting stuff is starting to happen
