Wham City (11:42)
146,682 plays (37,838 listeners)
Wham City is an orchestral piece comprised of multiple movement-like sections. Electronic layers move in and out over chanting choir sections. Distant loops (reminiscent of video game space sound effects) complete the flow of this magnum opus. The 11 and 1/2 minute masterpiece is a culmination of Dan Deacon’s individualistic, experimental, and innovative style of music-making.

I just realized this song is almost 12 minutes long, because I only listened to in from the radio in my library, and it never seemed that long, and I listened to the lyrics today, and I had to look them up, I love them <3
