For the past few days I've been working on a track that has been going REALLY well. I was really feeling it. In my mind, I was thinking "damn, this is fire!".
However, as I was working on the track, I started to feel that I had already heard it before...but I couldn't figure out where. I put the feeling aside and ignored it....until today.
I was listening to 4x4=12 on spotify and noticed that a song was missing. I have the album on mp3, so I figured I'd just switch over to my mp3 album collection and listen to the album there.
I go to the missing song. The moment the song comes on I realize why my track sounds so familiar. Sub-consciously, over the course of several days I had been copying "Cthulu Sleeps" almost exactly.
I was both shocked and disappointed. Shocked, because I haven't listened to that song in forever (enough to copy it so much) but also disappointed because now I can't use the song because it's such an obvious knock off.
Any of you guys ever had that happen before?
