Decisions

Happy how this track turned out as I had a couple of AH-HA and OH THATS HOW I DO IT type revelations for this one. Figured out how to do that increased speed beat with the RET command, used tables instead of whole instruments to modify my notes. Figured out how to make a little half step break in the song. Getting a bit better with kick beats, Messing around with measures with only 2 lines of phrases instead of always 4 (though I can always use a HOP command), toning up or down my song an octave or two also really helps, making one off phrases to just add a little bit of salt and pepper to the song. I  Lots of good stuff in this one. I got a lot going on but I'm damned happy with what I'm learning

Edit: I wound up re-uploading this song. And making this edit. My wife actually came up with the song title and went with it both times

Edit 2: OH YEAH! I broke my 18 week streak!!! 19 Weeks in a row!

Congrats on the streak and well done on the phrases. It sounds simple, but there's definitely stuff going on.

Great track, and congrats on breaking your streak, Keep it going! smile

Really liked this one too. The melody was great and loved the pitch bendy glissando thing at the end of the phrase. I see a character strutting down a sidewalk perhaps, and making decisions about which corners to turn on next as they explore their surrounds.
