New song! Rhino on the Piano! This is my first song in my harmonic rock style experimenting with adding some drums and layering of tracks. I've done some experimenting with industrial stuff before (which I continue to work on, and I'll release a song I have completed in that style sometime here), but this is the first time I've played around with mixing my harmonics with my drum machine. I actually started with a drum beat, and I was really liking how the cymbals sounded, and after that I thought a simple harmonic melody would sound nice and I improv'd something close to the drum rhythms. The bass track isn't edited, but the drum recording was much longer, so I took a few different sections and synced them up to the bass track.
The song idea came to me while reading some of the Moomin comics, hence the cover art being my drawing/rendition of a frame from Moominvalley Turns Jungle, as where they say the rhino is hiding in the piano it reminded me of the song Dog in the Piano by the Y2K breakbeat musician Indian Ropeman. So I wanted to try something a little electronic.
Also came out to 2:22, though rounded up by Newgrounds and Youtube.
