Magic Dragons

This song kind of had an identity crisis where it started out at 3/4 time, but I didn't like the plodding feel so I made it a 4/4 with triplets and it just didn't vibe with me. So I eventually just took the guitar part and made it 8th notes then built a loose structure around it. The only vestige of 3/4 is one measure in the intro and one measure in the outro for some handclaps. The dragon voice I found in Kontact and everything else is pure Logic X.

Nice to read how the track grew and transformed - it's such a familiar story to me! Very upbeat and cheery, but somewhat mellow too somehow! I adore the chords in the middle section, especially just before the chimy sounds come in. A curious little gem smile
