[future] "we fly to the moon" 📌

[enroe]

Who doesn't want to take a peek into the future? And imagine
what the world will look like in 20 or 40 years? How will we live,
what will become easier and better, and what new problems
will arise?

This is what our latest song "We fly to the Moon" is all about: "we fly to the moon"
Important: The image animation can be started at the bottom
left of the main image, the song itself only plays after clicking
on the grey <play> button.

If you necessarily need the direct link: We fly to the Moon

An epic song! It offers a mostly optimistic view of the future. The main chorus is excellent.

This is one of your longer songs but there are enough varied sections to keep it interesting and justify its length.

The mix is very clear.

The Blender animation is really nice. Maybe upload it as a YouTube video?

Some things to consider:
- The solo vocals at the beginning sound robotic due to heavy autotuning.
- The hi hats are very upfront and the kick drum is very low. Maybe adjust the drum mix?
- The drums sometimes sound like individual samples being triggered rather than a real kit being played.

Nice job overall!

Thank you Frantz.

Yeah, the "robotically sounding voice" at the beginning - and also
in some parts of the verse results from a slight downward formant
shift. Some vocal parts are also transformed down an octave. This
is intentional as it fits the theme of the song (future, robots serving,
...).

We will take a closer look at the drums, especially at the hihat and
kick - at your suggestion.

Thank you for your careful listening and your review!

great, love it

I dig it as well. I really like the panning on the opening vocals, the chorus is great, all around cool track. I really like the web page as well, and all the elements including the video. It reminds me of when the internet used to have personality.

Five thumbs up.

enroe,
The entire song is excellent; including the (what I assume are) vocoder vocals. Might be my favorite song by you. The video added to the experience too. I was nine years old when the first manned Moon landing took place, and that was really something! I live in Southern California, and by chance, I saw what was most likely a Space-X launch, an hour or two ago (in the night sky). Looked pretty cool.

Oh no, there are no vocoder vocals. The vocals that you notice are
simply transposed lower - with different plugins. In order for them
to still sound reasonably good despite transposition, a lot of effort
is required. Everyone can hear for themselves whether we
managed to make it sound “good” – even “moving”.

"We fly to the moon" is of course based on the moon landing in
1969 - the song is basically a metaphor for the future and new
beginnings - just as it was back then. But of course this is about
what our future as humanity will look like.

Aaron Aardvark, thank you for your review!

This song is definitely approaching ProgRock territory, with its various different sections. My favourite part of the song was the chorus, which has a very memorable melody. For some reason, I really liked the reverb/delay on the vocals. Nice sounds.

Good work
