The Oak Tree and The Quarry

By Arcana on May 3, 2020 9:04 pm

This was inspired from a writing prompt of something like "Waiting beneath the oak tree, you spot your quarry and ready yourself". So there was this thinking of like assassinations and peaceful fields and stuff.

It's not really finished, I think I messed up a bunch of stuff. I did a few things:

- Experimented with more 7th chords
- Experimented with some off-scale notes (not major scale, in this case)
- Practiced not starting a chord progression on the tonic, which is something I almost always do
- I tried doing a blues section but it just didn't work out at all

It feels to me that I should make it more film-like but.. it's not there yet really.
