Who told me to get in this car to MagFest?!

Hey all back at it with a little poppy track!

Slowly going out of my comfort zone with some things, starting to utilize and program out drums now. It's always been my crux so this track was a bit of a practice with that and i think they came out pretty nice! I always wracked my brain how do they do that rolling beat where it's a deep beat to a slightly less deep to lesser deep and a crash symbol. Just internet dummy -_- and figured out those are the Toms and Floor Tom's helping out with that. Now that I have slightly better concept of drums I'm going to try to program more.

Also given I was using Sample drums it sounded a bit stiff... so for the first-ish time I tinkered with the groove which is another thing to tinker with as well as tables. Hopefully will bring more to the table next time. Also thank you FFMPEG for allowing me to convert my WAV files to MP3s today

Very tasty arps, very solid lead.

I do like the base drum acceleration, and overall chip tune vibes (drums never been my thing).

Total 80s vibe on this one.  Great to see you at MAGFest!

Love this. Love the chords. Lots of pop sensabilities.

Nice job, dude! Some great sound design on this one. I love the chords, and that bass is really tasty, too! That arp at the end is choice, too
