Respite

This track was my first attempt at truly making something minimal, a function of how much time I had this week to dedicate to it. I have always struggled with knowing when to stop adding, but this was a great opportunity to attempt just adding less.

This is ethereal. Top notch!

I suppose it's just trying to make what you've already put in the project do what you want. I wanted some sort of delayed plucky texture in the background when the melody came in, so I repurposed the piano to do that. Also, reverb and environmental FX are king when there are few elements.
