Its really cool to see a composition that includes vocals, the whole thing I can see is really well thought out! The pickaxe as the percussion, the lyrics, and the mood all tie in together really nicely. Cool jam!
I like what you did with multiple vocal tracks, it paints the picture of a small group of miners in a cave for me! I get a feeling of longing but hopefulness from the lyrics. This is a nice song you've made here!
okay damn shoutout for writing a whole song with lyrics
the lyrics are surprisingly tense! and dire! i'd be so curious to know what you were thinking of while writing this.
Thank you so much! Yeah, it turned out quite dark! In fact my main inspiration was "The Frozen Heart (Ice Worker's Song)" from Frozen, haha, and my intention was going for something energetic and positive, but I guess my inner demons wanted for it to be more gloomy, and when I started thinking how hard a miner's life must be, the brief story in the song also became one of hardship, sacrifice and even obsession.
This sounds so traditional folky, good stuff! It's like Tom Waits esque in many ways (good ways).
This legitimately sounds like a miner singing a song to himself, in the mine! Good job!
