Artist Review #9(TheFatRat)


Artist Review #9(TheFatRat)


     Before Emerson introduced TheFatRat, I only knew him as an OC one hit wonder of Never Be alone.


Now....

Alright.



There's like this weird zoo sound in the beginning. The beginning gives it a nice Bass section band solo. kinda. Based on the beginning, doesn't sound like EDM at all. Then..

A weird like sounds like a chinese instrument plays. Then a whistle. Very nice melody sounding traditional for some reason. Then the thunderous bass strikes between beats leading to a mini beat drop. And then comes the SYNTHHHH. LESSGOOOOOOOO

YEAHH I LOVE THIS MELODY. WHO DOESN'T?

Then the melody repeats with more instruments. Than the traiditonal chinese thingy whistle thingy

BANG THE MELODY COMES BACK


I really like the melody. if you hate it, you hate this song. Now I'm wondering Why is Laura Brehm featured?

K, the melody still going on. and t he chinese melody plays again. AHH WHY AM I CALLING IT A CHINESE MELODY IM SORRY. I like the crash from the cymbal as a transition

Then they switch the synth and slur the notes SUPER HARD.

OOOOH. They bring in like a hollow organ synth. Okay that's one weird synth. Wow. Uhhh it's weird.


WHERE'S LAURA BREHM

I can't tell if there are violins playing or if its some other instrument. AND THEN THE SONG FADES OUT....AND THEN THEY PLAY THAT STUPID WEIRD ZOO SOUND FROM THE BEGINNING. LAURA BREHM IS A VOCALIST ALRIGHT. WHERE IS SHE IN THIS SONG

Wait. No. OOOOOHWEIORAWEY HRIOAWEGHRIOUAWEGHRUOAWGYEIURGYAWEUIRGYAWUIEGRTAIRAEIGFRYIATGFRAUIWEGR AWUIGRY WAUIEGRAWUIERG AWEUIGRY AWUIGRAWEGR WUIAEGRY AWUIEGR IAWEUGR AWUIGFR AWYIETFRAWBRHLBVHAWK TIYAGURPAEUROPRUAWEHRUO AE OFVGAUWIEGFRAW UERGY AWKE UIOGRY AWEIORYAWEOUIGYASSDUIFVBAHW IFBG WAEJIVG AUIWBVGT AWIERHAUOEWGURAWIUAWBHY KREGTAUIBHYERUIAVAWH BKJREGHIAUVGYBAWIUERBGAWUIERGAWYER


SORRY

Beautiful voice AHHH.

Laura is the best EDM vocalist ever sorry. Especially in pride. Her voice fits perfectly AH.

Then the synth melody goes back. The four minute mark hits.


Okay im gonna skip to the end cuz this melody is a bit annoying

The fade out ends with the zoo sound.




I think this song was in like rolling sky or something i forgot.


It begins with no fade in and just simple percussion. Five strong hits on a drum ends it and the digit synth comes in to introduce us with this song's melody. I hear pianos. And this like wheezing man in the background. like a CHEE CHEE CHEE sound.


Switch of synth, and then the melody comes back. 

Synth pad in the background.


I really like how TheFatRat switches octaves occasionally. Seriously though.


This is not being mean.


HOW TO MAKE A THEFATRAT SONG

  1. Find/make up a catchy tune
  2. Play it twice, then change the snare and synth. 
  3. Repeat
Lol sorry.

Anyway,

He comes up with this hollow synth. 

A familiar five notes from the beginning come back as a transition into the chorus solo.

Hm. Wth is this. Can't seem to find the vocalist or group of vocalists on genius.

Whatever.

Woww. THen a smashing drum gets me scared it's gonna break. Than the lyrics say "keep on walking to the sound of the drums"

Then they sing super low.

Okay this keeps on going.

AND IT STARTS AGAIN.

I LOVE THE BASE LINE IN THSI MELODY OMG.

I'll try my best to describe it.

It's like just sing the melody in your head. When you get from chord to chord or like measure to measure imagine a super nice synth bassline AHH ITS GREAT. I CAN'T DESCRIBE IT.

Then this random guy is singing too high-pitched and it fades out.

It ends with like a kinda flute solo.


NEXT



The beginning tells me that this is gonna be an unusual one.

Lovin' the whistles and the synth downbeats.

Almost sounds like a xylophone.

Wow nic ebeginnning. 
Then they add in this catchy tune
Then another catchy tune...that sounds like someone quietly screaming.

WOW AND I LOVE THOSE DRUMS. WAY TO CHALLENGE YOURSELF AND NOT BEAT DROP

WHOAAA


There's like two melodies going on right now.

Then the bass comes in, pounding in. 

Uhhh.

Then this weird thing comes in

It's like a zippy synth.

And then the melody comes in as an addition to the zippy synth. 

Things turn back to normal PHEW



Then it loops. gettin' a bit boring. CMON PUT SOMETHING INTERESTING 

They add in like a xylophone playing it.

Oohh. And then they add in this tiny, delicate synth three-note trill.

Then that weird guy quietly screaming comes in.

YEAAA lovin' those drums.

Then the synth melody comes in

And then it ends
than that annoying guy comes back with the drum.

K bye

  1. Monody - idk why there is the animal sound...perhaps a sign of a mystical setting???
    Unity is so happppyyyy because unity is good
    lol that's pretty accurate on how the fatrat makes edm
    edm artists are VERY diverse, perhaps because they all come from different countries
    for example thefatrat is german I'm pretty sure

    Xenogenesis is like video game like
    its pretty gud

    2. P.S., as I said, many of the fatrat's songs form a story that is represented not only in the lyrics but in the background pictures of the youtube releases
      i'll send you an email or something to show what I mean

  2. Also, theFatRat stated once that he started Xenogenesis before. Later, he added the drop.
    He realized it wasn't fitting for the rest of the song, but was too lazy to change it. XD
    so that's why it's "unusual"
