Life is wild, keep smiling. That's first rate advice. The world could learn a lot from MonoNeon...and not exclusively bass guitar wizardry either. Here we have one of the most skilled and original bassists on the planet, and he's writing luring songs like this. Awesome. A true creative.
This inspiring little number is something to dive into and swim with. Freedom and joy. A heavy, crispy drum loop anchors you. Tremolo drenched keys waver and wobble. Neon's heavy bass prowess is there, but you have to listen deeper for it. Aside from the chorus melody replete with alien harmonies, the verses are sung with an earnest, mellow cadence. The guitar solo is just raw feel. "I'm going to enjoy this life, knowing shit ain't right."
