The President is Dead

The President is Dead

Length 7:48

"The President is Dead" begins with multi-beat beeping accompanied by ambient city sounds and the raising sound of an inquisitive but sparse arpeggio panned to each direction. A deep ambient synthesizer opens up and the arpeggio grows in mid frequencies, eventually culminating in the introduction of a smooth, fragile, steady and consistent synthesizer bass drum beat accompanied by a repeating bass arpeggio. The main arpeggio continues with ambient distorted synthesizer sounds sporadically moving around the atmosphere until a cymbal roll introduces a snare and hi-hat rhythm to the drum beat, allowing there to be an ambient filtered bell synthesizer that plays a consistent melody in accompaniment with the bass arpeggio as the beeping continues in the background, said beeping being layered with a layer of resonant distortion opening and closing filters. A slow, curious melody made with an ambient synthesizer accompanied by the sound of a subtle filtered choir is then introduced, eventually leading to the bass arpeggio surrounding the atmosphere and the drum beat to gain extra percussion along with a subtle shrill synthesizer string sequence until the bass arpeggio crescendos with a reversed choir voice. Introducing a bridge, the sound abruptly cuts out and turns into the sound of water dripping with an electric motor that introduces a slow, shrill, short square synthesizer arpeggio that is accompanied by the sound of a hectic bass synthesizer melody with random atmospheric bursts, being layered with a second higher-pitched layer and eventually being backed up with the sound of a panning voice choir presumably made with C418's voice until the sound crescendos.

In the second section, the bass arpeggio continues in one note along with the beeping and an on-beat synthesizer hi-hat, raising up with the subtle sound of a synthesizer rim shot to reintroduce the rhythmic chorus drum beat, hi-hats included, and bass arpeggio as the beeping continues, said beeping eventually rising upwards in pitch until the reintroduction of the melody with the filtered bell synthesizer and the ambient synthesizer, eventually leading the drums to build up as the resonant distortion with switching filter returns with an emphasis on buzzing, eventually leading the drum beat sequence to intensify as the ambient synthesizer gains an echo. The drum beat subsequently rises in volume along with the bass arpeggio as the buzzing continues, crescendoing and leading into the song's conclusion, the song reducing to a simple drum beat as the bass arpeggio and ambient synthesizer continues to the bass arpeggio also crescendoing as a secondary bass arpeggio filters out and in. Various ambient echoing continues as the drum beat returns to bass drum and the bass crescendos once again, culminating in the bass arpeggio filtering and fading out with a subtle echo completely, leading into distorted wind-like sounds eratically panning due the transition into the next song.

Trivia

  • C418 confirmed via Discord that the track name does not refer to any living or dead political leader.
  • C418 took inspiration to make "The President is Dead" from the OST "The President is Gone" found in the 1981 film "Escape From New York".

Was this really recorded with seven people in mausoleum? great reverb

Yes. And all seven people were walking around within it without any light whatsoever. Everyone was safe and if anyone needed to leave because they got scared, we had people taking care of that.

Since the Childish Gambino mashup with my instrumental remix of SURVIVE's Stranger Things theme blew up so hard, I spent a little bit of time cleaning up the acapella so it fits better into my song thingie.

The mashup originated from this guy here: Kmlkmljkl – Stranger-bonfires

And of course, if anyone, especially the legal owners of the works used here, is unhappy that this is uploaded, I'll gladly take it down.

Length 3:09
This is an odd one. It's a mix between two songs of mine, "preliminary art form" and "post success depression".

I thought it was interesting to see what it would sound like to mix the two together because they are siblings. One's written in major and the other in minor. I think, don't take my word for it, I never studied music theory, lol.

Anyway, it's interestingly odd because the output seems to be neither major not minor. It's a very passive piece. It's also a little glitchy. Both pieces are written in varying speeds, so it's a little weird in some places. Still! Whatever!

If you wanna listen to the two songs alone, they're here:

The Driver is a remix I made for Weebl’s virtual real band Savlonic. It was kind of a rush job since I didn’t have much time when Jonti asked me to do it. So over the course of a weekend I cranked out this version, which I think completely alters his original song, haha.

Lyrics

I stole your keys 'cos you stole my heart
It seems like a fair trade to me
Now I will drive around in your car
It helps me to feel free

I drive over bridges and rivers
Being this far from you gives me shivers
I want to get away
But the flash on the fuel tank says I'm likely to stay

I awake you're not there I get to wondering
Where have you got to while I was a-slumbering
Look around you're not there and all my keys are gone
Why would you take them when you know that it is wrong?

Some think that this must be Freudian
Leaving my wallet behind
There was the time that I left the bath running
And flooded the room down the stairs
This is just one of the many examples
I use to prove to myself I really don't care

I awake you're not there I get to wondering
Where have you got to while I was a slumbering
Look around you're not there and all my keys are gone
Why would you take them when you know that it is wrong?

But then I see your wallet next to your heart next to mine
