I was worried about fatiguing the listener, so for my portion of finality5 I kept it relatively restrained. It still needed to have a climactic vibe though, so I went for some really iconic samples in the first half to make it feel more special. The second half gets more intense so the following track doesn't feel too abrupt. In general I'm really happy with how elegantly this track fits together; if you didn't know the samples it would aaalmost sound more like an original track than a mashup.
moth's notes:
I'm a big fan of the sample choices here, and it acts as great downtime between the halves of the three-part "finale."
Cheryl's notes:
wait no this track is a better calm before the storm than punk life i have no reason to like that track lol. anyway this track kinda gets more complex as it goes on before transitioning into the last part of the album so i DIG that
lyrics
On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
"This could be Heaven or this could be Hell"
Then she lit up a candle (And miss, and miss)
And she showed me the way (And miss, and miss, and miss)
There were voices down the corridor (And miss, and miss)
I thought I heard them say (And miss your heart)
"Welcome to the Hotel California [And miss, and miss, and miss, and miss, and miss]
Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place) [And miss, and miss]
Such a lovely face [And miss your heart]
Plenty of room at the Hotel California [And miss, and miss, and miss, and miss, and miss]
Any time of year (Any time of year) [And miss, and miss]
You can find it here" [And miss your heart]
War, never been so much fun
War, never been so much fun
War, never been so much fun
War, never been so much fun
Go up to your brother
Kill him with your gun
Leave him lying in his uniform
Dying in the sun
War
War, never been so much fun
War, never been so much fun
War, never been so much fun
War, never been so much fun
Go up to your brother
Kill him with your gun
Leave him lying in his uniform
Dying in the sun
War
Hey there. I see you're too lazy to read or watch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure to find out what a JoJo reference is.
But that's okay. Well actually it isn't-

rly dense, interesting mashup album. goes far beyond "acapella and instrumental" and into some rly accomplished and exciting plunderphonics Allison Fleischer
gorgeous lofi ambient pop album. has a lot of surprises and refuses to really show its hand at first. deeply personal and affected me in ways i cant rly describe Allison Fleischer
