I don't even know what to say about this one. I made a chill song out of my fire alarm as a way to...make it more appealing on the ears. I don't know why I randomly got the idea to do so this time around, but I'm honestly glad I did. This challenge starts off as a nightmare, but as the pieces come together, it ends up being some of the most fun I've had with these challenges. Just...made a chill song. A chill music boi. Out of one big beepy alarm. In terms of the style itself, I knew I wanted it to be mostly major scale right off the bat. I've been looking at different chords and types of progressions lately and I figured I'd utilize my newfound knowledge to make the main section. Anyways, not much more to say on this. Seeing as my style is influenced by video games, you can probably assume this song was inspired by video games (maybe). This is "Attempting to Make a Chill Song out of My Fire Alarm in One Night". I hope you enjoy!

You think this will stop me? You only make my musical spirit stronger!
Shady: *Creates more fire*
Shady Cicada: I’d definitely want.. like a ..slow beat
Also Shady Cicada: *aggressively puts sequential beats, literally makes an intense trap beat*
Nice choice for the song title
It's funny because I voiced the irony of it but it looks like I ended up cutting that part out for whatever reason 😅 good ol' late night editing
@@Shadycicada please make a song centered around that beat i was straight *vibin* , that beat was thicc

evacuate the building in case there is fire
*make a cool song*
Feat:
One (1) beepy boi; AND
One (1) sleepy boi
And LOTS of talent!
I love how you named it "This is fine" like the comic with a dog surrounded by fire saying "This is fine"
@Trin Silvers yes. There is in fact a high chance it is. But I, unfortunately, am pretty dumb

Petition to get Shady to name a playlist of all the attempt videos as “One of These” because he always says “welcome back to another one of these...”

@@seantaggart7382 Too late!
That's quite a pleasant-sounding fire alarm, compared to the ones that I've heard and the ones in my apartment.
It must be pretty loud and he must hear it a lot to be that unpleasant. Mine go DEEP-DEEP-DEEP-DEEP-DEEP-DEEP!
Honestly you're not wrong. It used to be a long raising pitch, but I prefer this new one wayyyyy more.
Mine goes BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRING and bursts my eardrums :/
The ones back when I went to school used to go BRRRRR! BRRRRR! BRRRR! *silence* BRRRR! BRRRR! BRRRR! (you know the evil cry of the baby from Luigi's Mansion? Kinda like that.)
Your's is just a square wave but mine goes MEEP MEEP MEEP MEEP MEEP MEEP
Shady: "I'm going to make a lullaby"
*Proceeds to make a fire lofi drum and bass beat*
Me: *Suprised pikachu face*
Fire

It sounds like bonfire
When you aren’t allowed to sleep because suffering is better for your health
My parents: Awwwe he's asleep.
My Nintendo Ds under the pillow:
bruh don't get set on fire that's unhealthy
Yeah my a room in my house was on fire and shit hurts
Relatable
That's just fireman propaganda lol.
He's vaccinated, he's fine
You might catch a cold
"I'm gonna end this soon because I'm about to end soon"
Oh ok then

Ah, i too play the fool
*i play myself*
Hello father
Aight imma nigerundayo outta your life
Congratulations
You’ve played yourself
"how to make something calm out of something annoying".
only Shady can.
* Shady chan
Levi Niha also did this.
So you made a snail's house song with your fire alarm
How dare you say something so specific yet so accurate
i've never been so insulted by something i completely agree with
I love Snail's house... They make nice peaceful little songs...
My favorite song by Snail's house:
I Secretly Love you
TheSeelOfTime This definitely does sound like Snail’s House
I’m glad I’m not the only one who got that
“It still sounds like a car accident”
yeah kinda
Damn dude, that track was fire!
...I'll see myself out...
I’ll get your coat on the way out.
*Intense agonized screaming*
Yep
IMA LIGHT YOU NOW
I love how the long notes hold like a fire alarm's blare.
I would like this to play when my house burns down
eldoron “when”
@@magicmonkey7075 That is indeed what fortune cookies are for :D
Holy sleep-deprived rambling, Shadyman. And yet, that actually worked. The mad lad did it.
I'm surprised too :'D
Damn this sounds like a cool Megaman Starforce style beat.
I'd leave a like for your comment but, 69 dude!
When shady cicada hears a new sound: this will make a fine addition to my collection!
Nobody:
Fire alarm: BEEEEP
You: * plays "This is fine" *
This is fine
This was great, now go GET SOME SLEEP
You should get that shamisen simply based on the fact that it’s named “Shamiboy”.
... I can feel the slap-happy energy in this video and it is triggering my Pavlovian instinct of 'I am freaking tired.'

Fire:"Why do I hear boss music?"
"A cloud with fiber glass insulation."
That sounds like something I wanna sleep on.
*Definitely*
Please put this on spotify. I need it for my playlist
It should be up in a few days! :)
@@Shadycicada awesomeness. It's perfect for my chill driving playlist
Shady Cicada: Makes something with completely unorthodox methods.
Me (and probably everyone else): *This is fine.*
"43,000 jippies" I am GONE
If at all possible though man, could you name the chords you chose to use in the song? My ear ain't quite at the point where I can hear them out lmao
Gotta get them jips, my friend. I actually don't know any of the names for the chords I use and I feel it would take awhile to figure which shape is which, but perhaps I could call out the frets when I do them sometime! :)
Bmin9, E7add13, Amaj7, G#min7, C#7
Bmin9, E7add13, Amaj7, F#min7, Fmin7
here's your metaphorical $5 .
now im guessing you have a passive aggressive email to send to your building head. "i was thinking we could use a new fire alarm, so hear you go".
(yes, "hear" is intentional)
I imagine they just decide to evict me and then as I walk out, they play the song on the speakers as my outro song and that's the only time it's played.
7:55
Shady Cicada: *Tries to make lullaby*
Also Shady Cicada: *Makes it somehow sound like some weird rap song*
When you stand up too quick and a chord plays from nowhere
i dont know what happened, but that gave me some nostalgic vibes.
This is truly art. It is amazing how a friccing fire alarm can be used to make this.
The sequel to "What it's like to be on fire."
I feel like i'd be that one person jamming out to this while the other people are panicking, trying to evacuate lmao.
Whenever my high school would have fire drills, the fire alarms kind of sounded like a beat. I must say though, this is much more relaxing and enjoyable.
A fire alarm is "relaxing & enjoyable"! Wow, I didn't know the sky was green & the pope was Protestant.
Yes, I'm being sarcastic. But if you enjoy the alarm song, good for you.
@@claireakaforestgreenorgang9506 Well, relatively speaking at least.
Did this a few years ago with my mate's fire alarm going off, then saw Levi Niha did it too and now you've gone and made one. I feel like we've got a brewing genre on our hands here.
I wouldn’t be able to leave my house if this was playing tho lmao 😂
I guess you could say that this really is a fire song
1:30 I'm used to coming here for the jókes don't come at me with that Good Shit
But actually do, that was euphoric
So we aren't gonna talk about how it sounds like roxanne? 3:56
The first two notes keep reminding me of Rainbow Road from Super Mario Kart...
Patrick: “Is a fire alarm an instrument?”
Shady Cicada “Yes, Patrick, a fire alarm is an instrument.”
"I wanna die" Shadyot Cicadyot, 2020
I don’t know why but i am listening for 5 monds to songs made by: fire allarms, vacuum cleaners, yoda sounds and carrot eating pufferfish.
The only thing i know is that i need help
A malfunctioning elevator made a weird thrumming sound. No, I didn't make a song out of it, but I went to my electronic keyboard & played something loud to compete with it.I tried to play Bach's Passacaglia & Fugue in c minor. (That piece goes well with my mood, & I do love Baroque music. Especially the organ music of Handel & Bach). It's hard to play, though, so I improvised a simplified version. It didn't drown out the elevator thrumming but it made the sound less scary. BTW, two days later that elevator was out of order. But I digress. Here is the Bach piece I tried to drown out the elevator "thrum" with: czcams.com/video/nVoFLM_BDgs/video.html
No, that's not me in the video, that piece is difficult for me to play, & besides the organist in the video is a professional.
Pufferfish are funny, aren't they?
That intro was priceless
No views but eleven comments, and none of them will load also 6:22 is mood
i’m only 4 minutes and 50 seconds into the video and this song is making me weirdly nostalgic
it reminds me of a piece that i’m playing in my orchestra class called “rigadoon”
it gives me nostalgic vibes and makes me feel like how i felt when i finished the game “night in the woods”
thanks for creating something that gives me great vibes :))))
Despite this song being made out of a sound I absolutely hate (aka fire alarms), it sounds so chill and still amazing! :D Also loved the general more "chill" vibe of this video, definitely a video I will watch often when drawing lol
This is a pretty *fire* track
CZcams: Hmmm this guy likes Music Let's show ShadyCicada
Me:*See the video* i Like this
Shady: I've been learning some Jazz Chords.
Me, a High school Jazz Music Student: *Nervous Sweating*
I listened to this song a lot during 2020, and it definitely helped me calm down during all the chaos last year :)
Insert surprised -pikachu- woodwood face
Shady: "'I'm sleep deprived from the fire alarm-"
Me: Looks at the time on screen
*"4:31 AM?!"*
This might be my favorite one yet
i woke up 3 hours ago and you just made me sleep
This is about to be fire 🔥
(It also reminds me of snail’s house)
It does though doesn't it
"S p I c e"
*Spicy Foray intensifies*
Wait are you Canadian I had no idea!
Indeed I am!
@@Shadycicada I never would have thought 😅. What province?
That's a song that really wanted to be vaporwave as a child but had to sacrifice its dreams because it fell in love with the strong and aggressive beat and eventually found career realisation as an 80's video game fighting theme if I've ever seen one.
"What instrument do you play?"
"The fire alarm"
Also, I'll pay you back your $5 when I'm not broke
15:12 you’re welcome
"Yeah I'm really into these fire alarm type beats everyone's been cooking up lately"
This is exactly what I wanted out of 2020 shadycicaca actually thank you
Shady! I love your videos and you inspire me so much. Thank you so much!
~a loving fan
For the sake of music children, set every thing on fire.
if this was a part of a game i would think this would fit in like a place where EVERYTHING is in crisis and alarms are going off 🚨 everything is red and your main feeling is panic until everything slows down and the sirens start spinning a bit slower and its a lil bit greyed out in this facility that you apparently are in. everything is kind of in a state of calm and then the game goes on with this weird slowed down world with curiosity overfilling you while everyone in real time is in panic. i thought it was pretty neat.
This is fine. Everythings fine i promise.
Aizawa sensei
Your video output is _alarming,_ to say the least
The lack of *Wood Wood* is making it impossible to _chill_
Oh boi did your house burn down while you made a real coolio song
This is genuinely my favorite song that he's made so far. It just has a hint of that chillstep/chilltrap vibe, and i love that genre.
I freaking love everything about this one. My absolute favorite of yours, and that's really saying something.
I love it, I actually really love it
nobody:
fire alarms in the middle off the night: *high pitched demonic screeching*
Fire alarm goes off.
Despite the crackling of the fire and smoke meeting his cough, Cicada desperately tries to finish a song in a burning building.
Bro I swear all your song always come out so well and amazing💗
Nice man! I don't know what music to recommend later, but I know I'll love it!
Also, where we getting ice cream at, cuz I want a chocolate vanilla swirl
Glad you liked it, man! I will go anywhere where there is cookie dough ice cream
@@Shadycicada No problem! And I hope your cookie dough has chocolate chips too cuz you deserve it for being such an inspiration!
Well if the alarm don't let you sleep them create a calm and _GoOd ViBeS_ song with it, wear your headphones and sleep. CHECKMATE
Aight this has been my favourite song you have made. I have been listening to it for years on spotify. I hope ur doing good! Thanks for the vibes!
2:27 that note slapped me right in the face and I panicked
*Shady at 4 am:*
*Everyone else:*
Sleep Sleep
You made this at 4:30 in the morning I--
I like it, its weird, it sounds good, and like a song, but theres a feeling of impending doom, the alarm sounds like music, but at the same time its still an alarm, it will always be an alarm, an alarming sound of impending doom
I love how you share your creative process with everyone.
“Welcome to 2020 where nothing has changed” How foolish we were
i still think your percussion is too much. making a somewhat slower, melodic song with minimal percussion, in an "exploring a mysterious forest" kind of scenario could be a nice challenge.
Minimal percussion stuff is coming soon (stuff with no percussion at all as well). Just having a phase I guess :'D
Misread that as "exploding a mystery forest", and to be honest I kinda wanna see that
@@columbus8myhw Sounds like the start of Mother 3.
I just love the name of the song. It's honestly perfect on multiple levels
Great work.
You are the only thing keeping me sane right now, I'm having a really shitty time and you've made me smile.
