I'm working on a longer piece that's challenging me to create, adapt, and evolve track more than I've ever done in the past. Instead of worrying about trying to finish it for this week, I decided to write an acoustic track. You can listen to me fudge my way around a song that I made as I walked from the basement, where I unpacked my acoustic, up two flights of stairs to my room. That really is all the forethought I put into this track, and you can hear it by the way I kerfuffle the chords and change sections of the song before I forgot what I had played 30 seconds ago. After manually automating compression throughout the track, I laid down a single take of a cello behind the guitar. This is the typical process I go through when laying down a track. Once more parts are added, that's when things start to take form.

I really appreciate it when people share what they think of as first drafts and ideation. I really enjoy listening to that kind of stuff raw, and this is no different. It's a simple piece but there are cool ideas in this and I'm intrigued by how you might grow this track if you ever chose to.
sounds great! i really enjoy this
Nice guitar work I like the cello too I like the way you layered everything
As you mentioned, it doesn't feel like a "finished" track but it was fun to listen to your process.
It's nice to hear that recording and get the raw first draft and its original energy. The cello layers are a nice additional touch!
Nice freeflow feeling. Nothing wrong with that.
Some nice acoustic guitar explorations. The cello sounds great underneath.
