Believe

This week was a pleasure - really enjoyed this one! This one came together rather easily.

The "goal" with this one, like one of my previous, was to create a strong B-section. I got this one to flow together so smoothly it is like a verse-chorus-verse-chorus structure with different chords in each section.

I was able to see the path to finish and execute what was needed to pull it together (getting lost in tinkering only once!). Once it came together, I noticed myself tinkering again, so I did a quick mix and master on it and submitted.

I played all the guitar lines, ride cymbal, egg shaker (1 of 2 shakers in the project), wind chimes, shells (resampled to make reverb washes and FX). Once I give this one a rest, I will decide if I want to refine it fully (and have a real guitar play the lines and add some more flair if I decide to do so).

First song I listened to this week, and you wrecked the grading curve.  Melodic, unique and awesome mix

Feels like I'm playing breath of the wild but stumbled into a Zoran night club.

This was really nice! I think you succeeded with developing different sections that blend seamlessly as well as filling the space nicely. I like the percussion and the laid back beat.

This is beautiful. I love the panning on this track. It is built in a subtle manner and I really enjoy the textures of the track, the very nice guitar sounds, how it mixes so well with the percussions and flutes. And the xylophone (?). Very nice. The tracks that come very easily are often the best! smile
