"Doomsday Party" - VIBES🎵 / WEB3 Music Competition Week 23 / Bass cover by @musicandreview

in Vibes15 days ago

The spooky season is over and so far I had not shared anything related, I only did a review of a series of witches, but it was a coincidence, I did not do it for that reason, so I want to take this space to share a song that fits quite well with the spooky season. “Doomsday Party” is a song by the British power metal band DragonForce, a band that I have been listening and admiring for years for their melodies and harmonies, they have a style reminiscent of the music of video games of yesteryear which had fast and frenetic rhythms.

This musical style is one of my favorites, I like the fast rhythms of speed metal, for some reason I feel attracted to the frenetic riffs and the guitar solos that seem impossible because of their great speed, I always dreamed of being in a band of this type. Regarding the song, it has lyrics related to the end of the world, but from a comic point of view, if you watch the band's music video maybe you will understand better what I mean.

Lyrics

It's a doomsday party at the old town hall
The doomsday party on the factory floor, we pray
Say hey, hey, hey, hey

It's a doomsday party at the old town hall
A doomsday party and a disco ball
A doomsday party on the factory floor, we pray
Say, hey, hey, hey, hey

So pack your bags tonight 'cause there's no one home
Fading skies of blue are now an empty hole
Endless winter nights, fuel is running low
Spend our lives at work, but nothing to bring home

None of your prayers will be answered
And none of your lives will be saved
You're on a bad trip to the grave

It's a doomsday party at the old town hall
A doomsday party and a disco ball
A doomsday party on the factory floor, we pray
Say, hey, hey, hey

It's a doomsday party, shake the bodies down
You don't stop moving 'til you hit the ground
A doomsday party, better raise your hands high here today
Say, hey, hey, hey, hey

But still the clock ticks by in this lonely town
When it's said and done, when the walls come down
But we love our land, we accept our fate
So we do what we're told and drink our vodka straight

None of your prayers will be answered
And none of your lives will be saved
You're on a bad trip to the grave

It's a doomsday party at the old town hall
A doomsday party and a disco ball
A doomsday party on the factory floor, we pray
Say hey, hey, hey

It's a doomsday party, shake the bodies down
You don't stop moving 'til you hit the ground
A doomsday party, better raise your hands high here today
Say hey, hey, hey, hey

Everything around was beautiful
We were young, we were free then
Everything was green and gold before
And we danced in the stars
Remember when we were so beautiful?
But the rain started falling
And everything in our whole world was grey
And we lost what was ours

It's a doomsday party at the old town hall
A doomsday party and a disco ball
A doomsday party on the factory floor, we pray
Say hey, hey, hey

It's a doomsday party, shake the bodies down
You don't stop moving 'til you hit the ground
A doomsday party, better raise your hands high here today
Say hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Promotional video

By the way, I shot a promotional video related to Vibes and Hive and posted it on X, Shorts and Tik Tok.

Promotional video on Tik Tok

This song originally has a length of more than 5 minutes, but I edited it to reduce it to 2 minutes, I did that with the Cubase5 application and the idea was to show you the most interesting parts of the song, besides, I didn't want to bore you with a 5 minutes video. I took the song from the band's official YouTube channel and removed the original bass to be able to record my bass line, I did that with the Moises application.

I hope that my participation will be to everyone's liking. Good luck to everyone in the contest!

This song is powerful haha I'm not surprised you like this style so much, it has a good rhythm, fast and catchy, I've heard a couple of songs with an apocalyptic or spooky melody that the truth is impossible not to like it 😎

Another excellent cover! 👌🦉

While I was listening to you I was imagining Buhito with that song in the background while he destroys the world 😂😂 he is next to me with a look that I don't like very much 👀

I think Buhito would be the perfect architect of the end of the world, how do you think he would destroy it? And well, the song is very good, I really love this band and in that sense it was an honor to do this cover.

His aunt @aibi93 gave him a mini jerrycan of gas, I have a bad feeling and he is also assembling an army of colossal owls haha (Buhito Jaeger) hahaha 😂 I'm afraid 🦉

Good morning dear friend @musicandreview how are you?
What a beautiful song, I'm not surprised that you like this band, since it has a lot of power. I loved the bass solo, it sounds better and better.
Have a great day

“Power is the perfect word to describe the style of this band, they certainly have a unique style.

I'm glad you liked my post, it was a pleasure to share!

Your best work yet! The precision and energy in your bass cover of 'Doomsday Party' are incredible. Every note is crisp and clear, and your playing has a relentless drive that matches the song's frenetic pace perfectly.

The way you've brought out the intricate basslines and synchronized them with the song's complex rhythms is truly impressive. Your skill and dedication shine through in every moment.

Wow, these words really touch my heart. I really appreciate that you paid attention in detail to my presentation, that means a lot to me.

I try to improve week by week, so I will keep going. Thank you so much for the support and for these beautiful words!

You are so welcome. My constructive criticism for improving in the future is to turn up the Bass volume 15%-20% higher so that it is really the star highlight amidst the music. Especially when you are hitting the lowest notes, we want to hear and Feel every frequency range. The main track music was just a bit too loud this time around.

Very beautiful song with beautiful lyrics. You played that thing very well. The editing of the video was also filling the vive very well. The 2 min video was full with Power. The promotional video was also great. Thanks for sharing 😊💕

I'm glad my post was to your liking, that's precisely what I look for when I do my covers. Greetings!

It was too brutal, you did a very good job on the bass, it would be great if you play again in a band of this style. This song is really good, in fact it has 2 videos and ironically the 2nd version has more views than the original hehe but it's worth it for the guest singer.

A big hug and many successes with this participation man 🤘.... You Fuc&%$ Rockkk!!!! 👊😎🔥🎙️🎸🎶❤️🌟🍻💥💫💯

Yes, the second version with Elize Ryd had a better reception, but she also has her fans since she is the singer of the band Amaranthe. And well, I would really love to play songs in this style all the time, it's my favorite.

I'm glad you liked my presentation, thanks a lot for the support!
