Title
meowscaline
Description
i looked at the image for the theme, saw cats and some sci fi looking stuff, so i made something based off of that.
first thought was to use meowsynth, a vst that makes cat noises and tried something like new order, because to me 80s music still sounds the closest to "futuristic", and i just love their album low life.
for the structure i started with a chorus section and then did a verse, then made the rest of the song based off of that. i ended up with an intro, followed by a verse, chorus, another verse, the same chorus, a bridge, the same chorus again, and an outro.
80s synthpop isn't really something i'd usually do, and i tried mostly using meowsynth, so this was a really fun challenge for myself!
Plugins used
7 meowsynths, spitfire labs and minifreak v

A banger!
Very catchy and overall flows.
I think sadly for me there is a bit too much distortion, especially during the bridge. If not for this problem it would probably have been my personal favorite when it comes to vibe.
Gonna make sure to check out your other stuff and looking forward to what you do next!
Lacks dynamics which can be clearly seen in soundcloud's player as the "loudness" is always at max.
Also meow :3
If I hadn't read the description, I wouldn't have been able to tell they were meows! What a cool, grooving track - you did the 80s proud! Well done!
You manipulated the meows so well into the song I wouldn't have even noticed they were meows!
I don’t know if I should call this “Catwave” or “Future meow”, but it sure does sound good. Great job!
This one is on me, I had my headphones at high volume and then the first snare played :(
