#altpop #indie #lofi #electronic #Betamales
N: David, Travis, and I had a jam session over the summer and put this lil' jam together. shortly after that my computer melted down...i recently picked up a new computer and found a bounce of this deep in my cloud files. i re-mixed some parts (added some glitches/stutters/noise and did my vocals this morning) the mix isn't where i'd want it to be (i no longer have the beat stems ) and i don't particularly like my vocal contributions to this one BUT i do really like the beat and David's buttery vocals. BETA MALES FOREVER!

Chill summer vibes, nailed it
The rap part is the icing on the cake
Arr yeeeeah boi! This sounds dope af! This is so wavy man i am right now leant back in my chair nodding slowly along. Its catch aswell you know. š„
I have a thing about Fallin' by De La Soul and Teenage Fanclub - and this gives me a very similar feeling... so laidback it's horizontal, summer, guitar - its a really lovely thang. I'm rubbish with production so I don't know what's good or bad, but to these ears it sounds great. Shiny chrome in fact.
Vocals sound great ... lead and backing. Nailed the summer vibe. Chillin' and such.
Really captures that āsummer thangā vibe. Love that breeziness of trouble free times.
Ayyyyyye this is such a vibe! This is giving me 'Steal my Sunshine' by Len energy and I honestly kind of love it??? Makes me hella' nostalgic for simpler times. Awesome job everyone!
Well now ya did itā¦must listen to steal my sunshine and get my nostalgia on.
Awesome groove and really lovely production details. The chiming guitars, lush vocals and harmonies are spot on ā and I think I caught a backwards cymbal in there too š Great hook as well. Very lucky save managing to retrieve that file after the computer meltdown!
Love the title hook, so smooth. Catchy in the best possible way. Yeah, that beat is great, I like it very much, as well.
I make the music I want to listen to. You make the music everyone want to listen to!
Awesome collab!!! This song makes the winter weather feel a little bit better.
I'd really have issues with Chloe. There'd better be something almost otherworldly in the puddin' or the hang out vibe is just that mind-blowing. Jokes aside. Great little number y'all got working here. That hook is irresistible and very radio friendly. The humor is there and I kept a smile the whole trip through. You guys...
I think we all had issues with Chloe tbf š
Chloe was much to casual for me. Sheās scary
That was a lot of fun to listen to, with its relaxed vibe and fun lyrics. And almost as fun as listening to it is trying to parse the various altpop influences on it. You guys did a great job on this.
You know what? I think I really needed a warm balmy blast of summer groove to get me out of the late winter slump. Loving it. Sunglasses on and into my morning meeting... Thanks Beta Males!
Beta males indeed. Overthinking much? Hahah I love the switch up in feel around 2:10. This song is low-key catchy Itās just a summer thang
Why is everything you do so dope?
Oh, this sounds SO pro! You guys! Definitely radio-ready, as they say. And filled with musical hooks, just the way I like it. Wonderful!
Iāve been cold all day. Literally wearing a down jacket and wool hat in my house right now. This song warmed me all up. Butter and Beta Malesā¦Not on my list of things that I would think would warm me up but I suppose I had that wrongā¦Loved it!
Damn that's hot butter on my biscuits! Made me temporarily forget that my balls are frozen and there's an icicle hanging out my nose.
Agreed! The beats (esp the congas/bongos) were a real highlight for me and definitely brought me into the mind of sunny island vibes backing up this delightful hooky chorus. Check out Chuck Prophet's "Summertime Thing" for an equally groovy take on this theme. Look forward to hearing more.
Bringing a little much welcome sunshine into this winter thang! Panamas off to @nahlej381 @djtjb and @davidtaro š
His butter , your toast.- they make each other better - What a compelling holding line! So nice n easy, now where did i put my hammock
Personally I love your new spoken contributions @nahlej381, perfect offset to the silly syrupy quality of mine! Now excuse me while I go place an order for some BETA MALES FOREVER t-shirts and branded mugsā¦
I want in on that!
What to do when all your friends write songs? Well, I have one idea. Write some songs! lol. This is nice...
Yes! Love the buttery Vox and chill groove. Lyric is so fun. Chill! Summer thaaaang. š¤š¶ Nice and Breezy!
That lax vibe guitar lead is popping. @djtjb skills production skills really shined with @nahlej381 verse. That change up was mad. And of course I can' believe it's not butter, it's @davidtaro. Super smooth track yall.
