Description
My first full length song.

I have been playing with GarageBand for a while and finally got round to writing a full length song. Previously I have written parts of songs, and some rings tones (which I'll post later).

The song was written one night when minding my baby and trying to stay awake. The song starts simply and builds, like someone trying to wake you up. They start by shaking you gently, getting rougher when that doesn't work.

(Now I hope my first upload to MacJams works correctly :)

Sweet!
I like this song a ton! It's so cool to listen to, I like the
consistent rythm, a real head-bobber.

Interesting concept
I like the idea behind the song, but I'm not sure it quite got there. I guess I was waiting for the sense of that person not just shaking me to wake up, but slapping me in the face or something. Basically a very high build of energy and drive that didn't quite materialize.

There were also some places where the rhythms got a little too layered and I started losing sense of the beat.

Overall though, a good concept and a good first crack at full-length songwriting.

Powerful synths here... I like this broken rythm so much!

nice
i love the overall deep beats here, but it would be even better in my opinion if you added a lighter sound to it (like a euro type synth on the higher octave). but who asked my opinion?! great work man.

Thank you. It is a little complex at some points. But I don't think I'm going to play with it (after 2 years). May try something else similar.

This is pretty cool.
Actually, it could go in all sorts of directions. I've seen what the magicians here can do with songs. Thanks.
