This track has 3 distinctive elements. A looped medley of Owen Wilson saying various Wow's which i have pieced into a rhythmical part that is then bounced and treated as a vocal loop. A thick wub bassline, that is more reminiscent of Dubstep, yet the beat used is more on the Breakbeat/Techno side, with elements of oldschool thrown in. And lastly, is the melodies, which are very uplifting played using a sawtooth for some stabs, a pad for movement, and later on a whimsical melody followed by an arp. It's an unassuming track, because you think at the start it's gonna be creepy, but then it goes into uplifting mode. I tried to have best of both worlds, alternating between neutral parts and happy parts. I like it, it's fun and also amusing. Enjoy!
The muse led to this outcome today and I just went with it as I didn't have any catchy ideas. Maybe because I saw the title 'The Haunting' in the theme video which got me thinking of Hitchcock. Who knows why thoughts do what they do? Oh well. Google says that Blimey is a synonym for Wow.
drawn from the earth
built from the air
powered by the rays
drinks in the rain
a thousand sculptors over a thousand years
couldn’t hope to replicate
what simply is
so why even try
Long title: Wow, I really need to get back into Chiptune. It's been a while.
more of a Ron Burgundy kinda wow

Wow
I can't believe it (believe it)
Parap-legic (defeated)
Stuck inside my house
Underneath the ground
Forever lost and found
Round and round and round
Wow
Im losing the feeling
Of having a reason
Question like an owl
Howling at the clouds
When the internet is down
When the music turns to sound
Turn the music into sound, now
Wow
Stay the same
Stay the same
Stay the same
Stay

Wow
Theres light in the morning
Got something important
To shout up at the clouds
Wisdom like an owl
Long before to now
When the music turns to sound
Turn the music into sound, bow
Wow
