《Music System》Chapter 12
Advertisement
Throughout the week Luther and Saturn recorded everything for the song. It was pretty easy for the most part since the to record everything for the song since the song was pretty short. Though Luther did have some problems with the drums. Saturn also had trouble getting the vocals down. Eventually though the two introduced what was basically a brand new genre into the world. Luther personally really liked the song that Saturn called " Intro ".
( I couldn't think of a way to seamlessly introduce the song to you guys through the story; so here's an immersion breaking authors note. The song is " Intro " by Slaughter to Prevail. )
Apart from recording the song with Luther Saturn hadn't done much other than work and spend time with his mother. He and Samantha were also still pretty tight. No awkwardness, though she was more open about dating. What really surprised Saturn was how she had started teasing him by sitting on his lap or talking about her underwear and boobs. It just really surprising to Saturn, after all he had zero experience with women.
It was one day after he got home for work that Saturn was sitting in the relaxation room playing on his laptop. He was going through checking out his WeStream channel to see any new comments or subscribers. He in total had 1,000 subscribers. He'd heard that getting that many subs in less than three months was pretty good, but he had no idea.
He was checking out the newest video that he had uploaded when he saw a comment that really surprised him. The comment read out.
( Hello ( Channel Name Here ) I am NorseGod, a fellow music channel, I would like to reach out to you for a collab. If you're interested then please contact me through my business email. I promise to get back to you within the week. )
Saturn was surprised by the comment and didn't really know what to do, so he checked the channel NorseGod. NorseGod was a young man who played under ground music, at least the music is underground by Saturn's world's standards. The genre was actually Metal, which was pretty damn popular in the world of Saturn's past lives.
NorseGod had a little over 200,000 subscribers which surprised Saturn a little, but then he got to thinking about it. He realized that many genres started getting popular with Metal being one of them.
After going over the channel for a few minutes Saturn decided to check out some of the songs. A lot of which were originals.
The first video Saturn checked out was called Odin's Wrath. It was an unusual song that focused a lot on bass and percussion and less on the guitar and vocals. It was only a few seconds in before Saturn's head started nodding with the music.
When the song ended Saturn decided to continue listening to NorseGod's music. Most of the songs that he had heard were really good, but not all of them.

After about of hour Saturn was still un-decided so he decided to ask him mom.
" Heeyyy mom, I gotta ask you something. "
" I'm in the kitchen. "
" Alright. "
Saturn closed his laptop, got up and walked into the kitchen.
He saw his mom standing at the oven stirring some hamburger in a skillet. There was also some white rice being cooked. Saturn had no idea what he was cooking.
" What are you cooking? "
" Taco rice. "
" Oh, alright. I have to ask you something. "
" Shoot. "
" Alright, so you know how I have been uploading music on WeStream right? "
" Yeah, what about it? "
" Well a pretty big Streamer reached out to me about a collaboration, I like some of his music, but I don't know if I should. What do you think? "
" Where does he live? "
" I don't know. "
" The how will you collab. "
" Well I assume with videos, I'd have to buy a camera but that should only cost a couple hundred. "
" Has this guy ever collabed? "
" Let me look it up. "
Saturn then proceeded to look up NorseGod collab on WeStream. What came up was three videos.
" He's done three. "
" Well watch those while I finish dinner, then we'll talk about it. "
" Good idea. Love you mom. "
" Love you son. "
Saturn then walked over to the dining table and started watching the three videos. All three of them were music videos of course. The first video was just a plain song collab. The second was trying to match each other. That was where one person would play a rift then the second person would try to match the first rift with there own by making them meld together, but they had to be different. The last video was them trying out different instruments. The instruments included in the video were a trumpet a violin a diddly bow and a twelve string guitar.
( Fun fact, I have built two diddly bows, also known as cigar box guitars. Only one of them was made out of a guitar box. )
Saturn's favorite video was the second. Since he had finished the three videos and still had some time Saturn decided to checkout the three channels.
All three of them were music channels and all three of them had at least 100,000 subs. That at least means that NorseGod didn't screw them over.
After a few minutes later Amelia sat down at the table. She sat down a white plate that was layered with white rice, taco meat, lettuce, and cheese. The recipe she saw had tomatoes, but Saturn didn't like tomatoes so she left them off.
They then started eating.
" So what do you think? "
" Well all three of the people he has collabed with have at least 100,000 subs. I also really like his music, I can't judge his character though. "

" Then I think you should contact him. Honestly son I don't know what to tell you other than go for it. "
" Then I will, I will also make a business email. "
" Then let's eat. "
They both dug in, the food was really good.
The next day.
" So what do you think Sam? "
" I think you should do it, I can't wait to see my boy-friend make it big. "
" Sam we aren't dating. And I could probably get you fired for harassment. "
" A. I said boy-friend not boyfriend, meaning you are my male friend. And B. I trust you. "
" Fine, I'll take it, I can even say you're my girl-friend as a shield from all the chicks hitting on me. It's amazing how many girls have left notes with their phone numbers in my tip box. "
" I want your tip in my box. "
" I don't get it. "
" Hahaha. "
That is how most of Saturn's and Samantha's conversations go. They start off serious, but then devolve into a perverted joke. Usually thanks to Samantha.
" Anyway, for serious now, I think you should do it. Honestly I am subscribed and I love your music, I really want you to get more popular. Since you are so talented. "
" Thanks Sam. So how has your day been? "
" Pretty good, I am looking for a new job though to be honest. I just hate the people where I am now. They never stop complaining, and they are all backstabbing bitches. "
" I'm sorry Sam, I really wish I could help. If you want I can go out with you when you want to go job searching. That way you have some company. "
" I appreciate, but most job applications these days are done online. "
" Oh, then do you have any ideas? I am sure you want another job at a clothing store. "
" Yeah, I am going to try applying at Queen's Castle. I heard they not only pay better, but they also have really amazing bosses. "
Saturn pulled a thinking face at that. He seemed to be scheming.
In the end he didn't say anything though, he just continued talking with Sam for the remainder of their break.
The end of the workday.
" Yo Luther, I have a favor to ask. "
" What is it Saturn? "
" You know my friend that I told you about, Sam? Well she was talking about applying at your daughters store. Is there anyway she could get a bit of favored treatment. "
" You're talking about you girlfriend Samantha right, I heard from the person who is running Bebe's that she is probably their best worker. She at least has the best work ethic. Why does she want to change jobs? "
" For one, we aren't dating and for two she said her co-workers never stop complaining and they are always trying to back stab each other. "
" Bull shit you two aren't dating. The only time you smile is when you are playing music, talking about your mom, or when you're with her. I'm just saying that if you aren't dating her then you should start. A girl like her isn't common. "
Saturn didn't respond since he knew that Luther was right. Honestly Saturn doesn't know why he didn't date Sam, he just didn't. Maybe he was scared maybe he was nervous or maybe it was the hidden innocence that he didn't want to let out for fear of being vulnerable. Saturn didn't know.
" Anyway sonny, I can talk to my daughters, but if Samantha doesn't work she will be fired in a heartbeat. "
" Thank you Luther, I don't know how I can ever repay you. "
" Saturn, just the time you spend with an old man like me is enough payment. After all, people at my age don't have a lot of friends. Especially when most of my friends came from the military same as me. "
Saturn wanted to give the old man a hug, but in the end he decided on a handshake.
" Thanks Luther. "
" Alright enough with the sappiness, have you got any new songs you want to record? "
" I might have a few in my noggin, what kind of genre do you want. I make something personally for you. "
" Hmm, I want something like we did last time, that Intro song. Got anything like that? "
" Yep, give it a few days for me to write everything up and then we can record. "
" I'm looking forward to it. Also tell you little girl-friend to apply at my daughters store. "
" I will, and I told you we aren't dating. "
" I meant girl-friend as in female friend and not girlfriend. "
" Why is that a thing now, what the hell? "
After that Saturn sent Sam a text telling her to apply at Queen's Castle and then he went home. When he got there he made himself a business email and sent an email to NorseGod. The email read.
( Hello NorseGod, this is Saturn. I am sending an email to talk about our collaboration. I have never done anything of the sort so excuse my ignorance towards the subject. Please get back to me at your earliest convenience explaining how we will go about our collaboration. )
Saturn of course wasn't refined enough to write such an email. It was Amelia who wrote it for him.
