i made this with my 404, a guitar, microkorg and a drum loop. i'd really really like to add vocals to this, but i can't think of any good melodies for it, and even if i did, i can't get my voice high enough for this. something sparse and subtle....like shoegaze vocals are. also, i don't know if this is really good enough to have vocals or not.

so i guess i'm asking for feedback and also if anyone who wants to try and give it a melody, i'd be super elated. so its like an open collaboration of sorts...

warning, it is a little loud, and starts off right away full volume

Dig this wall of sound kinda stuff. Wish I could offer a melody, but got no skills lol. Just wanted to say I peeped, and liked it tho. A good departure.

I can almost hear where you're going with this. I think a good bassline and heavy drums can really help direct you to the promise land. :wink:

"isn't anything" and "loveless" are masterpieces.
