Casi ha amanecido (It's almost dawn)

Back after a week of silence. My initial goal was to create something happier than previous releases but I completely failed. I began with a guitar that felt dark to me and I followed that path. At least is something different: slow tempo, no bass, no kick or snare in the drums. I enjoyed experimenting with this approach. I hope you like it.

Well when trying to write upbeat stuff, sometimes all that comes out is super dreary... Hahahaha... This is still great, tho! I really liked the lyrics, the delivery really sells the sad and depressed tone and theme. Awesome work with the guitar too!!!

nice submission! Music is a funny thing and I totally relate to setting out to write one kind of piece and something else coming out instead. Tone, lyrics and voice all fit together very well in this. Keeping the breath sounds at the end also really fit with the message.

Low-tuned tom for the parts that aren't hat/cymbal?
