A German breakup song meant to evoke relief of letting go of a relationship after years of trying to keep it afloat. The chorus shouts in 5/4 rhythm (TRANSLATED TO ENGLISH): "giving up resisting, something has died, nothing is like before, I can't take it anymore; I can imagine something better, I stand up and fly, cause this brings me under, I won't drown, and that's the reason why this is goodbye."—Polite, to the point, and a bit punky.

Hey there! First of all: I like how you gradually develop tension in this tune. Simple beat drum glues it all together. I like how it all dynamically exploded in the chorus. Sounds wholesome. Unfortunately, the vocal performance did not resonate enough with me. I'm really sorry. Your music is a wonderful piece of art - thank you for the submission!
Hola. La canción tiene un buen ritmo en su comienzo, con buenas guitarras marcando su ritmo al igual que la batería. La vocalización femenina, profunda y con personalidad, hace una buena mezcla con su coro interviniente. El estribillo de su guitarra, su vocalización temblorosa y melódica, le dan un tinte original a su melodía. La guitarra, al apagarse la voz, con su punteo al mejor estilo de los 80, hacen que su intensidad aumente y se aprecie la posterior explosión y término de la misma. Si bien es una buena producción, esta vez no será incorporada por buscar melodías algo distintas pero recalcamos los puntos positivos que son muchos. Saludos cordiales!
Hola Sergio. Muchísimas gracias por esta magnífica valoración. Me encanta que haya destacado la calidad de la producción y la energía de la canción. Es una pena que no encajemos en su anuncio. No obstante, le agradezco enormemente el tiempo que se ha tomado para escuchar la pieza con atención. ¡Un cordial saludo! —Anka

Hey again Anka Mason, Thanks for the sub, this is a great fit for Rock Roadtrip! Feel free to send this or more of your songs again when you're ready, as judging by the quality of this latest one, I bet you have lots of gems in reserve. Feel free to shout us out on IG and we'll do the same for you!
Hi there! We appreciate your singing rhythm along with warm guitar riffs. However the overall tempo of your song is a little slow for us personally and the tone of your singing is a little too light and even sweet for our taste, which doesn't fit quite nice among other faster and stronger rock songs with moodier/deeper tone of singing throughout that we usually feature in our 'rock legends' playlist, sorry 🙏
Hey there! No worries— glad that you gave it a listen. I have to smile, as I love that you hear my vocals as "too light and even sweet"‚ (thank you)! I am just happy that you took the time to really hear the song. Warmest regards, Anka

Hi there, thanks for the song. Good music lines; really great instrumental playing. The vocal line is melodic, emotional and powerful at the same. It was a good performance. But I must say that I need a more energetic and aggressive sound for my rock playlist. Hope you understand my decision. Good luck with the promotion!
Hey there! Thanks for the feedback—I appreciate the honesty. Yeah, this tune is punchy but definitely not energetic or aggressive. Again, thanks for taking the time to listen. That means a lot to me. Warmest regards, Anka

Greetings! And thank you for sharing your song! A nice and vibrant instrumental, I like the trumpet in there. The production is clean as well, you have a great voice! The vocals drop in at 10seconds which I believe is good for audience retention. The pace of the song is too slow for me though. I simply prefer more energetic singing right from the start, for audience retention reasons as well. This is just my personal taste of course. All the best, R
Thanks for the feedback. There is no trumpet in this song, so not really sure what you heard when you say "A nice and vibrant instrumental, I like the trumpet in there."—Anka.

Hey there! Thank you very much for sharing your music with us. Really appreciate that! The song has a strong foundation for a good indie rock track. the guitar, drums and other instrumental performance is engaging, giving it a solid musical backbone. However, we weren’t fully convinced by the vocal melodies and performance, sorry! While the instrumentation shines, the vocal delivery and melodic choices didn’t resonate with us this time. Of course, this is just our opinion, and we know music is highly subjective. Keep creating, and we look forward to hearing more from you in the future!
Hey there, thank you for sharing your song! I think that the song had a really interesting feel, well done with the mood that you have created, it sounded really interesting in my opinion. I think that you have a great voice, well done with the overall feel that you have created, for me personally it sounded really interesting, there aer some great parts in the song that I've really enjoyed, you are a great songwriter in my opinion, but for me personally the song was just not as memorable unfortunately this time, I'm really sorry. There are a lot of different themes, but it was just not as memorable for me, I'm really sorry. Good luck wiht your submission!
When evaluating your track, I found the production to be well executed, creating a polished, cohesive, and consistent sound throughout the song. Overall, it feels like a solid and enjoyable production. However, when considering the vocal performance against the standards of my current curation, I feel it doesn’t quite create the connection I need to fully win me over, so I’ve decided to pass on it this time.
Thanks for sending this track. However, I think this lacks grit, which is essential for my alt-rock playlist. So, I'll decline for now due to this. Still, I appreciate you sending this track. Best wishes
Hi, Anka Mason, John F. Mason! Thanks for sharing. First of all, I want to highlight the energetic and charismatic vocals. The melody is energetic and has a lot of depth. Your track has potential, but I think it could use a bit more aggression. I hope you understand. All the best!
Hey there, Anka - thanks for the submission. I thought your track had a really nice, punchy sound and lots of energy. It's an infectious sound for sure. There's plenty of character in the vocal and lots of ideas in the track. So it really just comes down the song itself. Whilst I thought it was put together well and it sounds like the band is having a blast, I just didn't connect with the song enough. I thought the melody was decent, but never really took off - I wanted a killer hook - a really surprising, repayable section - but it never quite arrived for me, and got a bit too complicated for its own good imo. This is just my opinion of course, but Im going to pass on this one I'm afraid. Good luck with it.
Thanks for sending your music my way. There's a nice guitar riff in the beginning of the song. However, the reason why I'm going not to share it is that I prefer more edgy and less classic rock productions for the vibe of my playlist. Just my opinion, of course.
No es una mala canción, pero personalmente no me ha convencido del todo para lo que estoy buscando. Necesito canciones con estribillos un poco más pegadizos

Really enjoyed this track. The vocals are strong, the production feels clean, and everything comes together naturally. I’d be happy to support this one.
Thanks so much for the submission. I really enjoyed the energy and the way you presented the track, especially the delivery and overall effort. At the moment, though, the sound doesn’t quite match the direction I’m keeping for this playlist. I appreciate you sharing it with me, and I hope you keep pushing because there’s definitely something good here.
Thank you for trusting us with your music. I gave the track a careful listen and appreciate the creativity behind it. Unfortunately, I don’t feel it fits the current playlist flow strongly enough. I hope to hear another release from you soon.
The production brings in a really creative character from the start. There are some interesting choices in the beat and in the way the track is shaped overall, which gives the song a distinctive atmosphere and a solid base to build around. I think the vocals could be integrated more deeply into that production. At the moment, the voice feels slightly separate from the beat in some sections, so the two elements don’t always reinforce each other as strongly as they could. Giving the vocals a bit more presence and allowing them to interact more directly with the melodic side of the instrumental could make the whole track feel more connected. One approach could be to shape the vocal phrasing around the strongest melodic or rhythmic moments in the beat, while also creating a little more space in the instrumental when the voice needs to lead. That kind of exchange could help the vocals feel more embedded in the production and create stronger moments of impact when both elements come together. I’m not adding the track to the playlist this time because I wanted to hear a more developed connection between the vocals and the production. The beat already has an interesting identity, and I think stronger vocal integration could really help the track open up and hit with much more force. Wishing you the best with the release and your next steps.
