Splintered Light

Can I build an entire song around a sidechain-compressed chord? Yes I can!
Is it any good? Ah... Well, it's unique.

The track length is a reference to a certain 20th-century composer's most famous composition, which you might prefer to listen to instead of my track.

That's very mysterious.

I'm imagining little creatures marching around in an 8 bit game.

The sidechained chord and march-like beat make this really hypnotic after a bit. I love the different variations you introduce here and there.
