Increment One

This year, I was looking to change how I am working on my music. I am taking a bit of an Agile approach, working on breaking down one long composition into 1-3-minute delivery chunks. I am drafting future ideas several weeks in advance, refining the next release or two, and finishing one every week.

Welcome to 2024.

Very cool! The Agile approach sounds like a great methodology to make longer compositions work within the scope of the one-week timeline. The slow crawl from lush nature into electronic rhythms is really effective.

i came here to say that i loved how this builds, that the atmosphere and intensity really mesh, but that i felt like the track just got going before it ended. but then i read your description hahaha
really looking forward to hearing how this develops

Interesting approach! Might try that myself. Really cool rhythmic patterns in this one with the reverses!

Really cool sound design, and I'm interested to hear how the agile approach works for you

Whatever works best for you, and by the sounds of it, this works quite well. Starts off quiet, gets intense, and leaves wanting for more.

lush. and i like the concept! will be interesting to see how this develops

Really nice intro, with the transition from the birds into the synth buildup. And the synth chirps were a nice touch. Finished too soon! I hope you revisit this later.
