As you look back at the City you grew up in your entire life. Now in flames. People suffer. People run. People hide. And yet. People are killed. You're reaching the outskirts of your once home, now over run by an overwhelming corruption and military force... There's nothing you can do, except run. For if you try to help, you will meet a similar fate to those around you... To survive, you must hide. Do not show your face. Do not trust anyone. Just leave the city. As fast, as you can (idk what this is, I was just trying to monologue random stuff while listening to this. I really like the song though!)
Don’t worry if it takes you a while - took me 5 years to figure it out. Basically you first need to come up with a liminal/creepy melody, then add wobbly bass + strings. Some steady subtle percussion also helps.
yeahhh upload to spotify and if any of your other stuff is anywhere near this quality seriously consider starting uploading everything you ahve there if you haven't already
I am making new ones all the time, will upload to soundcloud/spotify eventually so the stupid tiktokers/short makers don’t steal this stuff, claim it as theirs, get 2.5m views and then send a cease and desist letter. (I’m joking)
I’m so sorry, but *no* - since its hard for me to keep track of the usage if its not in a youtube video. (I also have a game in development that I am planning to use the song for, as well)
I’ll be the a hater cause everyone needs one. it lacks a cohesive sound. A lot of ideas are shoved together and fight for your attention. Try treating each instrument as a piece of a puzzle so it could sound more harmonious and complete when put together.
Thank you so much for being the hater (seriously). I totally agree with you; when I was composing this piece, I shoved a bunch of ideas into it last year without knowing much. It did not sound good. (Tbh I don’t like this one as much as the others) I would like your opinion on whether this is actually good enough for UA-cam - somehow everyone thinks “WOW ITS SO COOL” and “OMG HOW” on all of these videos. I really appreciate this feedback, and if you have anything else to comment on, please do so. Please check out my other videos as well, and criticise them as much as possible. Thank you.
I can understand why one wouldn't think this is worth releasing but overall I like the sound design, though I think maybe the piano could be different? Also more variation in the instrumentation instead of just adding more layers. But this is good anyways and I need to write more instead of watching music on youtube. Thank you for posting it
This sounds like something that would play over credits for a psychological thriller
Totally agree, any ideas on what should I name the song?
@@LabOptics I think what you called the bottom string of music. Dark Currents goes HARD
It does, but it’s extremely hard to fit it in without it sounding terrible. This is like a one-time use case 🤣
"Wait... It was you the entire time?!" *end credits, and this song*
Next episode: protagonist becomes antagonist, reveals all his evil plans for no reason, gets caught, happy ending great cool
If I was in a competition and this was my opponent I'd lose.
why do i hear boss music
Unraveling the plot type beat
Here, you don’t unravel the plot, the plot unravels you.

I clicked ready to comment "Should've stayed in the recycle bin 🔥", but it's actually good. Wow
Ah yes. Next time I will be sure to empty the recycle bin first, before looking through it.
protagonist locked in a haunted mansion then fade to credits vibes. 10/10
to be continued…
Genuinely so awesome dude
Subscribe then, you haven’t. I am definitely not begging for subscribers.
@@LabOptics done‼️

I am not kidding indeed that I am banging
Nah this is actually really good, you fr cooked.
🔥🔥🔥📢📢📢
murder mystery ass music🔥🤣
Lol

Nobody, otherwise i would starve to death
gives a "liminal" vibe. i really want to do this with music.
Don’t worry if it takes you a while - took me 5 years to figure it out.

Im calling it right now. This will blow up.

thank you for your excellent contribution to this comment section 👍
Portal 2 vibes
Wheatley final boss vibes
This is gonna get massiv

I wish it would be longer
I will make extended version soon
i agree with everyone. this is absolutely cliffhanger ending credits level music (not saying its bad though)
I agree, the melody is very suspenseful
Cool Vibes
Indeed
Damn this sounds cool
More coming soon, subscribe

Nobody seems to ask the question... WHY DID YOU THROW THIS IN THE TRASH BIN IN THE FIRST PLACE
It was a mistake 🙃
the glow on the thumbnail was too bright, it sucked me in
Sorry 🤣
Do you want me to change it? Is it really that bright
@@LabOptics nah if it wasnt for it i don't think I woudlve clicked, I might have to steal that thumbnail idea
if i ever make something cool can i use this if i credit you
Yes, as long as you put my channel name and the song link CLEARLY in the video where everyone will see it, ideally at the beginning of the video.
i meant more like at the top of the description or at the end if theres credits or even in the title if the video heavily uses the song but thanks!
can i use this for my game? i'll credit
I’m so sorry, but *no* - since its hard for me to keep track of the usage if its not in a youtube video.
(I also have a game in development that I am planning to use the song for, as well)

I see why you found it in the recycle bin.
Yeah it was an abandoned song that I made last year, just polished it up and finished it
I can understand why one wouldn't think this is worth releasing but overall I like the sound design, though I think maybe the piano could be different? Also more variation in the instrumentation instead of just adding more layers. But this is good anyways and I need to write more instead of watching music on youtube. Thank you for posting it
The piano is altered, it’s not a normal piano. I fully agree with you on the other points though.
