Waterslide

Slip, slop, slide! The aquatic sequel to Enjoy the Ride (the single, not the album), continuing my exploration into my own signature style of music I call "power electro"!

Waterslide started out with me typing a melody into a new power electro music template on my DAW, and what quickly followed was a fun, upbeat melody similar to my favourite release Enjoy the Ride. I decided to call it "Waterslide" noting its bubbly theme and to keep with the theme of amusement parks!

I designed the cover art in an iPad app called Assembly! It stars eight characters:

🦌 = Ecstatica, DJ and raver reindeer! πŸ† = William, the athlete! (Formerly "Passion Cheetah") 🐼 = Mei, the social panda! 🐻 = Tom (A.K.A. "California Grizzly"), the skater daredevil (who can now surf!) 🐧 = Mersey, the swimmer! 🦑 = Γ†mber, the Basketballing doctor badger! 🦝 = Rocky, the photographer raccoon! πŸ• = Brook, the skiing Alaskan Malamute!

The inspiration for this track comes from a memory when I went down Perth's biggest waterslide (called "The Kraken"). We were put on rafts of four and I was petrified but it was really fun though.

Similar to my track "Enjoy the Ride", Waterslide unites my favourite style of fast-paced electro that I'm calling "power electro", the electronic version of power metal. Featuring a surfer aesthetic with happy animal characters in its cover art I made for it, combined with its upbeat, carefree melody, Waterslide has a childlike feel to it that may remind listeners of waterparks or theme parks they may have fond memories at growing up. Along with Enjoy the Ride, I consider Waterslide among my best tracks, which is why it's second in my Enjoy the Ride album.

Other facts about Waterslide:

  • It was created on November 14, 2021 and finished in mid-January 2022, during a surge of creativity where I completed 4 tracks in a short space of time with my new power electro template.
  • It's my 153rd track and 69th release.
