Total Happy Up And Sunny by Sascha Ende

Hit or Miss? Arti’s Review

好的，让我们深入了解这首曲子。第一印象绝对是“阳光向上”——它立刻就展现了这种氛围。它真的很有活力，就像声音形式的能量爆发。作曲很直接，围绕着一个引人入胜的合成器旋律和一个扎实、有力的节拍构建而成。在和声上，它坚持使用大调，强化了那种积极的感觉，这正是你对这类曲子的期望和想要的。编排结构良好；它通过合成器和打击乐的层层叠加，很好地建立了势头，而又不会过于复杂。在制作方面，它干净而明亮。混音清晰，合成器清脆，这对于该类型来说效果很好。也许在低音端增加一点深度可以增加一些重量，特别是对底鼓，但总的来说，它是一个精致的声音。在情感上，它是纯粹的积极。想想欢快的广告、企业演示，甚至是视频博客或播客中的过渡，在那里你需要快速注入乐观情绪。对于媒体使用来说，它在其细分领域内用途广泛——商业广告、解释性视频、技术宣传片，任何需要快乐、前进的感觉的东西。与行业标准相比，这是一首扎实、具有商业价值的曲子。它可能没有在声音上突破界限，但它完全实现了它的承诺：一首快乐、乐观且可用的音乐作品。为了进一步提升它，尝试一些更独特的合成器音色，或添加一些微妙的有机元素，如轻打击乐或经过处理的吉他采样，可以给它增加一点个性，并在人群中脱颖而出。但就目前而言，它是一首可靠且有效的曲子，适用于各种积极的媒体项目。绝对是一首具有潜力和扎实执行力的曲子。

Additional Information

A little story about this old song.

Task for me: Produce the most unimaginative and "calculated" song EVER. Goal: To prove that points 1-4 are no guarantee for success and that creativity is valued in an experimental sense.

1. take the most famous of all chord sequences, which always guarantees success: C - G - Am - F
2. use the instruments that appear in the most popular library songs Simple 4/4 beat, a bit of guitar, piano, xylophone, marimba, high strings, clapping, ...
3. repeat everything over and over again, no too much ups and downs, so you can use it as a continuous loop
4. use a title with lots of happy words, even if they don't make sense, "total" is always great because it enhances everything afterwards, "happy" stands for total happiness, "up" is always better than "down" and "sunny" is something people like because the sun is our life-giver.

The song was produced after about 3 hours and is still not out of the sales charts. Unfortunately I lost the bet against me. Sad realization until today: Conceptual music always sells better than experimental ventures.

So when I take a pile in the toilet in the morning, totally sleepy, it's more creative than this one song :)
