I coined the term 'satiricom' in 2021 as a contraction of 'satirical comment', which I like as it's also the same pronunciation as 'Satyricom' as in both "The Book of Satyrlike Adventures" of the Romans and Fellini's 1969 movie. From 21-22 I created text and images for 6 satiricoms, which were posted on various social media sites, so this year I decided to create a video of them and composed this music for the video, though I now actually prefer to listen to the music without the distraction of the images. Unless you're viewing on a fair size PC monitor you probably won't be able to read the text in the images, so if so, don't watch the video, just listen!

From my Timeline notes:
Horns are a hybrid of Big Band Shout 11 part Horns & Crooner Big Band 9 part Horns samples, but as the centre part is way louder than what precedes and follows it, I had to cut the hybrid sample into 4, then decrease and increase the db of each section as needed. I also did a 1 second adjustable fade 1:35-1:36 to kill a single way too deep note.

84 bars; 4/4, G; tempo 110; Time 3:12
