OK, it took l a whole week but I finally have a little time to spare, so I'll write out this description.
So this submission was a super duper last minute one. I had a BUNCH of stuff going on during the week.
During the weekend, when I typically have some extra time, things were still super busy. I had two gigs on Saturday, one with the samba band I play in and then another one at night where I performed my own electronic music. Then Sunday came around and I spent a LONG time doing early voting in my local primaries. Where I live there were over 100 things (people and ballot initiatives) to vote for, many of them contested, so I was just trying to make informed decisions on each one.
Anyways, I ended up only having about 45min to work on my song and this was all I could come up with. This submission was used for weekly beats as well as them community jam. The theme of the jam was chapel/cathedral, so the first thing that came to my mind was Era's Ameno. I know it's become a meme, but I find that chant of "Dorime" unironically super cool. To try to achieve something similar, I thought about using the M8's Macrosynth vocal engines (vowel, vosim).
Given the time constraint, I was only able to get a seed of the idea started. Barely was able to flesh any of it out, but hey, it's something!
Thanks for still listening!!!
