3:51Song Image
1992-inspired Eurodance pop with driving four-on-the-floor kick, uplifting synth leads, energetic bass, and bright chord stabs, Big, catchy chorus built for repetition and crowd chants, Upbeat female lead vocal with joyful attitude, High-energy, colorful, retro club sound with clean modern production
7:54Song Image
A melancholic folk-pop song with a moderate tempo and a minor key, The instrumentation features acoustic guitar, bass, drums, and a prominent violin melody, The acoustic guitar provides a consistent strumming pattern throughout, while the bass offers a simple, supportive root-note line, The drums maintain a steady, understated beat with brushes or light sticks, The violin carries the main melodic theme, often playing sustained notes with a mournful quality, The female vocals are soft, breathy, and delivered with a gentle vibrato, conveying a sense of vulnerability, The song structure follows a verse-chorus pattern with an instrumental bridge, Production is clean with a focus on the acoustic elements, and a slight reverb on the vocals adds to the ethereal atmosphere
3:53Song Image
A hard-hitting thrash/death metal track with a strong industrial / cyberpunk element, The guitars are using DOD FX86B distortion pedals for a tight, crunchy death metal sound, The drum kit consists of twin 22 inch bass drums, 14 inch snare, tuned deep, a pair of 10 inch tom toms and a series of cymbals and high-hats, The bass is deeply distorted with a Behringer UM300 pedal, Synthesizers are analog Korg MS-20, The vocals are female, growled or shouted, with high pitched shrieks and screams throughout, Effects include glitches, static drops and hard change-ups, all within a groove-driven sound, Mood is dark, violent and menacing
4:03Song Image
Mid-tempo fuzz garage rock with off-kilter, psychedelic weirdness, Thick, dirty garage fuzz guitars with uneven sustain and blown-speaker texture; simple riffs that hesitate, bend, and repeat slightly wrong, Bass pushed forward and dry, holding notes too long and occasionally leading sections, Drums are raw and physical—straightforward patterns with abrupt, imperfect fills and brief one-beat stumbles that feel intentional, Male lead vocal is dry, close, and imperfect; half-spoken at times, restrained and curious rather than aggressive, with clipped phrasing and late entrances, Structure avoids clean verse/chorus separation, relying on repetition and tension; include a short instrumental “stumble” section, a spoken/flat bridge, and an abrupt hard stop ending, Live-room energy, minimal reverb, no synths, no polish—texture and discomfort over clarity

4:57Song Image
Fast-paced pop punk with punchy palm-muted guitars and driving bass leads into energetic drum fills, Verses are tight and rhythmic, opening into catchy, anthemic choruses with layered vocal harmonies, Brief bridge drops intensity with muted instrumentation before a final high-octane outro
