Micro Witch House ?

[Nightbird]

Okay.. So I've found a couple of artists who make really short tracks (e///clipse.. Marie Dior). e///clipse have a whole EP of tracks 1-2 minutes in length, which I love.

Is this some kind of sub-genre of W-H ?
Or is there a purpose for making such short-length tracks ??

Would really like to know what others think..

[DelusionalOdyssey]

Definitely noticed it in the chillwave genre. Haven't really seen any WH artists doing it though. 2 minute songs tend to be a good length i think. 1 minute songs just aren't enough, always really bummed when i find a song i really like but it's only a minute. For example Haunches by Salem is a song i really wish was longer.

Like e///clipse's ¤
I wish the tracks were longer...

You say you favour 2 minute tracks DelusionalOdyssey.
It's always interesting to learn how other artists feel about things. To me.. 2 minutes is very short for a full track.
Are short tracks common in WH ?

Not common say, like across the board. Very LONG tracks are also seen. Some artists though do this very well. Marie Doir like you mentioned and imo RΛINИIΛЯ [now just Rain I think] has some very short but awesome tracks.

Some of my favourite witch house tracks are the really LOOONG hypnotic ones (Woven of Serpents by WIK▲N springs to mind). I just love it. I love BLVCK CEILING, but some of those tracks last for around the minute mark just as it gets a groove, and even though they may be taking the "less is more" route, it can be frustrating rather than rewarding.

Mcll & iamthesunset..

Thanks for telling me about those LONG tracks.. I really didn't know there are WH artists doing that !

Thanks for mentioning this song. Listened to it, now just can't get it out of my head, very hypnotic and haunting. Cheers!

You're welcome bro.

@ iamthesunset

I wasn't being sarcastic at all !!

I'm new to WH and don't know what is common or uncommon practice

[iamthesunset]

Hahaha, i wasn't sure! I was only kidding either way.

If you dig deep, even trudging through bancamp, you'll find some gold. For such an 'obscure' sub-genre, there's a lot of great stuff out there to be found.

The one thing I noticed about WH music is the length of the song is sort of dependent on the style. Usually the more beat and vocal style stuff tend to kick around the 3-4 minute mark and the droney stuff goes from 4-8 minutes. Then again this is music we are talking about and there is no defining rules to length of song. I like my music to be around the 5 min mark personally then again I am also a fan of Anal Cunt (grindcore metal) whos songs are 3-30 seconds long. It's all about impact too right. Not sure if this was helpful or not haha
