Atmospheric Reflections

In a perfect world, this song would have had all the guitar parts come in at different times, there would have been a B section, there would have been lyrics and a chorus. The drum beat would have been performed on acoustic drums. I tried playing drums to this, but this is a little too fast for me, especially because I have not been practicing.
I looped the two elements (guitars & drums) and had some fun using things like filters, delay, bit reduction, repeat edits, reversing sections and EQing to make a little variety. In a perfect world, I would spend more than 3 hours on a song, and I would put attention into the composition, arrangement, and I would practice for a few days before recording, and THEN I would add all the little touches like effects. Anyway, I am not beating myself up, I like how this little jam turned out, and I am learning more about how to take my compositions to the next level. Something AWESOME was that my husband helped me clean up the basement studio - you all would be shocked if you saw how disorderly my workstation has been. Also cleaning up dead bugs, mouse droppings, cobwebs - it was a real nightmare. I still have a ton more to do, but the place is vacuumed and relatively dust free. I can't believe this, but I've never had all my electronic devices on one shelf before, they've always been scattered all over the place. Next thing to do is to locate and label all the power supplies and associated cords. SO MANY CORDS AND CABLES GEE WILLIKERS
Love you all!
