That was fun - lizard/reptile brain & Fight or Flight response were BUZZ word of the late 80s early 90s.
Interesting arrangement - it worked the best when sparse. The rhythm guitar is, perhaps, too normal, (might need some DUB in & out of the mix, massive reverb/delay treatment to be less ordinary).
Good stuff.
Cheers

Ha, That's unique for sure! Ya know, the number one artist these days is Billie Eilish. I think you could give her some competition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyDfgMOUjCI

Thanks for the listen Ray. Your comments are much appreciated. Food for thought. Cheers.

This surely wakes up my lizard brain with very hypnotic rhythm, I hope there are no subliminal commands  Different, strange yet modern, unique sound landscape. Excellent use of BIAB. Janne

Unique!
I love it...
And I imagine you had a lot of fun putting this one together!
Where in the world did you come up with the concept?
It sounds like something Rayc would do.

Very cool!

Hi Janne.
Now there's an idea I must try.
Embedded subliminal commands.
Thanks for such positive comments.
Cheers.

Hi Jim.
Thanks for the support.
Just trying to figure out how to use RealBand and Realtracks again, forgotten over the last couple of years, keeping the lyrics to the minimum. I do enjoy these toys. Cheers.

Hypnotic stuff, RichMac!
In the start I thought 'what the heck is happening here?'
But then I got hypnotized by the melody.
That was the good thing about it, the bad thing is now the phrase 'Lizard Brain' stays around in my head.
I wonder for how long...

A weirdly charming refrain that; it sounds like you had fun with the effects.I was expecting a really heavy drum track/more grunge guitars to come in, but enjoyed the hypnotic repetitions.

Hi Hans, Wish I knew. 'That phrase' has been bouncing around my head for weeks now. Thanks for listening and commenting. Cheers.

Janne Man, is that ever entertaining. We were wondering how to express our thoughts, went and read the comments and it would be hard to beat what Janne said! We have a large tin lizard as "yard art" and I don't think we'll ever walk by it again w/o thinking of this song! Fun. J&B
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos
