Miracle of Sound: Forever Blue (Breaking Bad Song)

Got some chills watching this, great song once again. Please tell me you are going to do a an Arkham Origins song?
As someone who has not seen any episodes of Breaking Bad and only knows the general premise of the show from cultural osmosis, I can say that it stands up very well on its own as a compelling bitter-sweet song. The melody and rhythm draw me in even as the lyrics weave a darker story of desperation and bad choices. Good stuff!MiracleOfSound said:
Looks like it's time to head over to Bandcamp again and grab some new tunes. This one will definitely find a place on my frequently-played list.
You do great work, Gavin.
I'm not the least of a singer myself sadly so I'm not that knowledgeable in the voice processing arts, but it might just be a whole lot like not quantizing too much. It just leaves the human feel which appeals to us, especially in an emotional piece such as this (very electrical pieces have their charm in the robotic feel of 100% quantizing).MiracleOfSound said:
I think I just generally like it when you add trills and slurs. Your earlier works don't really include a whole lot of 'flashy' singing, something that you have pulled off lately quite often once or twice in songs to intrigue the listener in lack of a better word. Never stop doing what you're doing!
ha, that was the first song posted hereIgnatz_Zwakh said:

I've never been a big music guy, but I've been hooked on your music. I was hoping you'd be inspired to make a Breaking Bad song and it is awesome! The sounds emulate the theme song well. "Forever Blue" is a great play on words that fits the character of Walter White very well. I enjoy how there are so many layered meanings and themes to your lyrics.
Thank you, I am always happy when people pay enough attention to the lyrics to spot the hidden meanings.Caleb Marmon said:
You all need to watch Breaking Bad
Even if you HATE crime drama (like I do), you'll love the show.

As someone who has watched the series twice through already, this song captures the tone of the show extremely well. As someone already mentioned, the song becomes more and more chaotic towards the end, just as the show does.
I know its late, but I have a minor criticism for this very extremely awesome song. I hadn't really noticed while listening to it on my computer or on low volume, but when I started listening to it on spotify to and from school and work, I notice the latter part of the song is way waaay higher in volume than the first half. I usually end up turning the volume up when this comes on (because, like I said, its awesome), and then having to constantly adjust it down as the song goes on. I love that the song becomes more chaotic at the end reflecting the show itself, but I don't think that means it needs to go up in volume compared to the rest.
