This time I kinda managed to do sonata. I spent more time (at least on parts of it) and learnt quite a lot. Tried new approach

5/4, title dedicated to first bird I spotted with my new minihobby

I think your odd signatures feel so natural it’s like second nature and you feel more the melody. Pretty nice and your compositions are getting more intricate too!

Lots of cool time signatures going on this week it seems! The fat kick is a nice foil for the thoughtful melodies in between good stuff

Thanks! It's weird, sometimes I will do something in 5 or 7 and it just feels natural at this point big_smile which is super weird for such short amount of time tbh

Thanks! I do only odd/compound time signatures for whole WB, but I'm happy that more people are experimenting big_smile
And thanks - I guess I'm trying to make the creation process easier, so I have bank of sounds/presets to reduce choices and I go by ear. The kick vs melodies was not conscious tbh - but I guess it's a good sign big_smile
