But, yes, this is a treat. First I must say how good you are with those voices. Very cool lyrics and the melody you created to present them is perfectly perky just the way someone who would be singing them would be. Does that make sense?
I had to draw a flowchart to understand your words laugh
Thanks Marty!

Singing and spoken parts - brilliant.
Great groove, instrumentation, and mix.

Very enjoyable punk feel, reminds me of Avril Lavigne both musically and vocally, I don't remember whether she has made any drinking song, but your song has the right spirit smile
I got the title, or I think so, clever handling of the double negative. Reminds me of the fact I don't drink for religious reasons, I drink for other reasons laugh
Catchy chorus and powerful band, well mixed and enough guitars for the sound.
Excellent work with Solaria, especially those spoken parts sound very natural.

AI will be harvesting our organs soon.

And I thought the synth singing sounds so real, but the speaking sounds so unbelievably authentic.

Darn good song, whether you have a human or synth! Love the instrumentation too, Just right, like baby bear porridge.

B.D.:

Wonderful done . . . great 80’s vibe to this . . . but beyond that, I’m really impressed by the quality of the production here. The difference in vocal quality between the chorus and verse, the positioning . . . yeah, great mix, with some pretty flowers sprinkled throughout. LIke those fade outs on the “Not Drinking Either” . . . great use of reverb and delay throughout on the vocal. Killer stuff!

All my best to you,

Deej

How cool! Solaria sounds like a cross between Imelda May and Chrissie Hynde and that is a good thing.

“Just gimme my booze, my whiskey in the jar
And leave me alone
You're not my ma”

That gave us a laugh. smile

The sparse band sounds great and the mix does too.

Good pop production and video!

What a cool intro. Loved the mix on this. Had my speakers thumping. Super vocal. Drums and bass lines gave the song such a cool groove. Well done

B.D.Thomas,

It's scary how real those synth voices sound! You've put together a tight sounding well constructed track! I certainly have no advice to offer as it sounds as though you know as well as I about what you're doing!

Thanks, T

Thank you so much, David!
It's always good to get your feedback, especially because the spoken (non-rap) words are new territory for me AND I'm not a native speaker.

Killer Pop Sound. Drums! Bass! Guitars! - excellent.
Great job with the Girls. The spoken word thing is impressive. Nice processing on the vocals, too.

MUCH enjoyed.

Which prgram do you use for videos?
Thank you, Waoband, for listening and for your feedback, which I greatly appreciate.
As for the singer, well, as they say, reality is just an illusion, albeit a very persistent one smile

I use different programs depending on the video, but the main control program is always Magic Music Visuals

BD,

I missed commenting on this one . . . though I think I had given a listen some time earlier. Regardless a wonder to hear again. Really well done tune, but no surprise as your productions are always clean and compelling. Once again, great use of vocaloids. Really nice drive to this, catchy chorus, with a slick 80’s like sound. Nice use of sound effects to boot. Cool tune!

All my best to you,

Deej

Trying to picture drunk Solaria...
Fun tune. Well composed and produced. Neat spoken parts. I guess my critical comment would be... that spoken verses have good amount of raspiness and punkyness to connect to narrative, but choruses are too sweet for someone with such bottle issues. In any case, easy going cool tune. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.
