Alpaca-in-Chief finds heart in the halls of "M Building”

 Alpaca-in-Chief delivers a song that feels like his diary entry as played on the TV in “M Building" It's awkward, heartfelt, and quietly revolutionary in its own way. Daniel, the mastermind creator of the World Scholar’s Cup and the self-proclaimed professional nerd, turns the most unoriginal realm of academia into a poignant, almost cinematic musical piece. This track is about the student’s life; it is a personal study in contradictions: a person forced to be free, imprisoned in a school that subtly provides support and cages them in more.

The track is melodically beautiful, the off-pitch miscellaneous hums and the cracked notes certainly set the bar for music. The listener gets invited to echo cavernous halls of Daniel’s mind, some are dimly lit classrooms, others are short glimpses of what life looks like outside the schoolyard. This song evokes both sadness and happiness; it reminds us of the lonely trips to the "M building" and the intense efforts to locate meaning, while also celebrating the enjoyable memories created with friends.

The track is not about what could be done outside of the schoolyard but instead about the cruel jokes shared by schoolmates. This track is a dissertation title for any who left the high school with the relative feeling of loss. It expresses that close environments held dozens of years of vicious memories, humour, and longings, comedic and tragic but essential to a time frame full of blissful nothing.
