🐾 Almost to the DAY, this song just hit 11 years old. It was uploaded on January 2, 2012! That would absolutely mean I originally created this song on my iPod Touch using the app Music Studio by Xewton. This song is so old that you can not find it on my current SoundCloud account because it was before I even knew how to use SoundCloud [effectively]. I believe I created that account with my Facebook account, which got deleted years ago and so I can no longer access it. I mean, here, see all of this information for yourself! soundcloud.com/daybreakpony/wanted Also, reading the description, I don't know what was going on in my life back then, but apparently, some shit was going down in my life. "The lyrics, at first, make no sense, but they are about life...just like Electronic music is." And then... for absolutely no reason, the only other tags besides "electronic" are "Renard" and "Queenston". I was a mess back then. I mean, I know his music was essentially my inspiration to start making music (honestly, a poor inspiration for someone like me, but at least I started and moved away from that style), but I don't know why I decided to use that as tags.

🐾 Anyway, this song, clearly, has been completely redone. ALL in FL Studio. I recall wanting to revisit this song a few times in the past, but the main issue stopping me from doing so back then was the one sound that persists throughout. Obviously, with a simple app like Xewton Music Studio, there were a lot of basic, "legacy" sounds available. The "orchestral hit" was one of them. I don't know what compelled me to use that in this song, but ever since then, I've not been able to find a sound that sounded similar to it but of higher quality. Until I found the Orchestral plugin by Edirol, that is! (Honestly, it's sad that it's been abandoned because it's such a good plugin and I still use it but it isn't maintained, so now small things like me using 4K monitors causing the plugin to appear incredibly small are things I have to deal with). (also, I don't remember if it was that plugin or FLEX by FL Studio but I don't want to reopen FL Studio right now to check because this whole project has taken far too long and I just want to be done with these songs now.) BUT, now that I found a decent version of that sound, I went ahead and recreated the song from scratch.

Answers to possible questions:
- The lyrics are self-explanatory. Also, yes, the lyrics are, what's known as, "microtonal", because, you know me, I like to add pointless "word painting" to my songs, so when I say "no slipping through the gaps", the vocals descend microtonally, going down from G to F in 5 steps -- G, G½b, Gb, F½#, F -- ...because music.
- Yes, that is Arin Hanson from @GameGrumps at the beginning. I don't remember from which video it was, but they had joked about EDM and dance music and the various sounds and shouts that emphasize drops and builds and whatnot. I don't know which song(s) it was at the moment, but I've already used Dan's imitation riser from that video as a riser before, so I decided to use Arin's perfect pre-drop vocal as a pre-drop vocal here.
- Yes, you have probably heard the vocal clips at the end from somewhere before. Many artists, including Skrillex, have used the pack that they're from and, recently, I was lucky enough to afford it and PURCHASE it myself. "Urban Dance Vocals" is the pack and I'm making the most out of it for the music I make.

lyrics

You hear the sirens wailin'
your escape attempts are failin'
You're wanted; you're on the run
but the fun has just begun.

You're caught; you're trapped.
No slipping through the gaps.
You feel your life's at end,
but every day it starts again.

With FL Studio as my primary Digital Audio Workstation, I create songs varying in genre though usually falling under the EDM super-genre which then is classified as one of its sub-genres.

I enjoy making music as a pastime of mine and people have enjoyed hearing my music, though some financial support is highly welcomed to continue my music career. ... more
