Respite in Ruins
By ViridianLoom on February 16, 2020 6:18 pmFor this week I wanted to keep things kind of simple. Even though I had a 3 day weekend and could of used that time to work extra hard on a song, I didn't 
. Instead, I chose to spend that time with my girlfriend, watch season 4 of Better Call Saul, and play Ace Attorney.
So thought process going into this song:
• Nice and simple structure. Limit it to just a few instruments, no percussion.
• Use a pretty plain sine wave for the primary melody. I only added reverb to give it some shimmer.
• Relaxing vibe
I mean, some of the chord choices go a little dark and add tension but I got down what I set out to do.

You nailed the points, very relaxing. The dark chords are fine, they tie in with the title well.
Mysterious yet relaxing. Cool vibes here!
Tones and chords were well chosen. They meld perfectly.
Would work so nice as a film score 
Hey, nothing wrong with taking time to catch your breath - R&R is important too! This track turned out magically by the way.
Very mystical, flits between euphoria, noir and nostalgia. Great tune here.
lovely piece!
Interesting and unpredictable chord development
Very fitting title. Really nice melodies and chord progression. The tone definitely shifts to a bit darker towards the end, but it's still incredibly relaxing all the way through. Nice work
