BONUS TRACK DEMOS - Panic Build

from Songs in the Key of Fork Knife by Mr. Gee and Katie Dwyer

/

about

This is another one of our Fortnite Songs (for an album of Fortntie songs to be released sometime in March/April I suppose).

Sometimes everything is going perfect. You're playing with your team, you have basically had a peaceful landing, no ones shooting at you and you are living the dream. Then, out of nowhere, destruction comes swiftly and the world feels like it's ending and you instantly have a small heart attack.

That encapsulates this song.


I had a LOT of fun mixing this song. As always, Mama Katie (aka Katie Dwyer) is a master vocal mixer, arranger, editor. Her “ooh” background vocals are LEGENDARY. I made the music like this to reflect the extreme panic one feels in these situations. Mixing this song felt like mixing TWO songs. I tried to make it so that the punk/metal section hit HARD when it came in. I did a lot of different EQ and compression on the “metal” sections. But I still wanted it to be possible to hear the vocals. Not an easy balance, but a fun challenge.

lyrics

vERSE Amaj7-Dmaj7 Emaj7
peaceful walking
singing, talking
nothings happening
calm pre-storming

Everyone’s vibing with me
Everyone’s vibing with me

strollin’, shoppin’
headphone talkin’
no one shottin’
just lobby bottin’

Everyone’s vibing with me
Everyone’s vibing with me

CHORUS Ab-C-G
PANIC BUILD (OH CRAP!)
PANIC BUILD (WHERE’D THAT SHOT COME FROM?1)
PANIC BUILD (I’M CRACKED)
PANIC BUILD (HELP!
PANIC BUILD!!!

VERSE 2
Nothings wrong now
everything’s kosher
we got some closure
out of exposure

everyon’es vibing with me
everyone’s vibing with

CHORUS Ab-C-G
PANIC BUILD (Button mashing, )
PANIC BUILD ( walls are crashing
)
PANIC BUILD (spinning slipping )
PANIC BUILD (almost trippingr,!
PANIC BUILD!!!


outro
Uh, we had a slight weapons malfunction, but uh... everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here now, thank you.
