@Chiefmappster's Beat Battle League Week 4 Entry: The Pain Won't Go Away (Original Beat)
Headphones are recommended, press play, scroll down and enjoy the musical vibes
A repetitive 808 and high hat structure to represent the never ending feeling of the pain associated with loneliness. It is always following from one moment after the next, which is why this is a symbolic representation of wanting to change, but not receiving change of situation, and the overwhelming sense of defeat and longing for companionship or even more distance from a loved one that doesn't love back, or just someone who you would like to connect with but they are, for whatever reason, unreachable.
I also decided to sing on this beat to give it some life and share some of my memories of pain of loneliness with you all.
Chorus:
Oh, the pain won't go away
The pain is here to stay
I wait alone today
I need some time away...
I added some soft, emotional harmonies to layer it and just wanted to bring this instrumental full circle with a relatable chorus. I hope you all enjoy a piece of me shown here deep within the music...

My very own wonderful gif logo provided to me by the generous and kindhearted @papa-pepper Thanks again very much!
The song cannot be played on the current page - android smartphone, chrome browser.Play store opens.
That is unfortunate to hear, I am not sure how to fix that for you to be able to hear the beat. Thanks for letting me know though.
Hi, verbal-d ( sorry i dont know your name )
The problem i see on my device is because of soundcloud, which player doesn't work in browser on my device.
Maybe it is not supposed to work, or maybe something is not right, but not sure if you can fix it.. i will take a look myself to it, later today, i put to work my web developer skills
It is okay, you can call me verbal-d :)
I also don't know your name but I'll just call you @digitalplayer lol
But yeah, usually I find that the Soundcloud player works on Google Chrome web browser. Everyone else has been able to listen to it, perhaps you have access to a computer other than your device?
I love this. That kick is punching!
Thank you very much bro, appreciate your kind feedback and you listening
Great song bro , light and emotional , nice drums rhythm.
Thank you very much bro, appreciate you checking this one out, I had some fun with this one, was able to release some energy and soulfulness.
also good vocal , I could feel the energy in the song , great <3
Appreciate that bro, glad you could feel the energy in this one, that is definitely important in music, thanks man
Solid entry this week Verbal! As simple as footsteps moving to the rhythm of the heart. Nice chorus as well
Thank you very much @vandigital, this one just flowed out and I know the beat isn't crazy but I feel it fits the direction.
Appreciate you peeping the chorus, tried to give a silky smooth approach on that one.
Mmm, lotta feeling there holmes.
Thank you for even listening to the beat bro, I always give emotion and feeling to the best of my ability. Just aiming for the theme and a chill reminiscent vibe

Thank you very much bro, I always appreciate your support and kindness, much gratitude.
Very melancholic and full of hope vibe somehow. Nice lil Jam. Love it.
Thank you for showing support as well and giving me encouraging kind comments. They go a long way truly. Glad you enjoyed the melodic vibes of this one. Hope I place high!
I hear you. So do I. Hope is the last one dying. (;
Indeed indeed
@verbal-d this is good, you even manage to add some vocals to this which was a super bonus but I wasn't feeling that clap to this tune. I thought it didn't match to this vibe, it just wasn't strong enough. Maybe if it was a better clap, it wouldn't sounded better. I remember you telling me that you got a team to do your mixing so I understand why your mixes are not that leveled but this would of sounded a lot more leveled if it had a great mix to it. The mix is okay on this because the kick and the hi hats seem to sound too high on my speakers and the vocals could of been mixed in better too. I like the melody a lot, It makes me feel like I'm sitting underneath a tree on a sunny day and while underneath the tree that is providing me shade, I'm thinking about the pain inside of me and trying to fight my tears back but the melody is just saying to just let it go and just cry it out and as soon as I do that, some heavenly voice comes in (the vocals in the beat) is singing to me and putting their hand on my shoulder. I like this beat overall and I think it was a good instrumental post but I definitely thought it could of been better! Keep it up, in my opinion, this is the 1st instrumental beat I heard so far that matched the theme to @chiefmappster week 4 beat battle
Thanks for the detailed feedback much appreciated for you listening. I am pretty sure you're not gonna like any of my future mixes or drum choices lol so I will just leave it be. I did all the mixing myself on this one. I know I have much to learn but I am glad I know enough to even present my ideas somewhat close to how I map out the high quality of the song within my mind. When my team helps me, it sounds crazy radio professional. And I completely agree with you, I often try my best to fit the theme, even last week I felt the same, yet I placed 4th, so this week I hope I hit top 3 since the other beats don't really seem to be customised to the theme, or maybe they are just some old beats thrown into this contest.
