Me: Spends a whole week editing vocals for 1 song
Some other person who thinks theyβre a musician: spends 1 hour making a full album on Suno
The struggle is part of the journey.
Homie! Thank you so much! Appreciate you giving it a shot π₯
Synthpop? Indie Rock? Alt Pop? Electro Rock?
I don't know what genre this track is (maybe you can help me out with that in the comments) but I do know one thing. It hits.
This is Balance Beam π½

Hey, I'm Western Jaguar. I wanted to share a bit about my new single, "Balance Beam."
- It was a bonus track on my recent album because I wasn't sure about its quality.
- The lyrics delve into feeling inadequate.
- Musically, it's a departure from my usual indie rock, dream pop style.

2 years ago, I released the definitive collection of Western Jaguar's early years, showcasing some of my formative work. This album captures the messy period of finding my sound, direction, and identity. It includes pop (Disappear), moody alt-country shoegaze (In Passing), and even punk (Belong).
"Balance Beam" was a bonus track from my most recent record, Kaleidoscope, and ya know what... a lot of people seemed to like it. So, I thought to myself, why am I gatekeeping my own track?
