Fight or Flight

By Vivi on February 11, 2024 9:17 am

Made on the M8 tracker as usual.

While I was making this, I was focused on invisible struggles with anxiety, the pressure to be OK all of the time. Every temporary crutch and source of relief can bite back 10 times as hard and is unsustainable. It can become impossible to reach out, and those feelings turn inwards until instinct becomes impossible to ignore or control. Isolation, lashing out, self sabotage, and self destruction. The only way to heal is to give yourself permission to breathe.

Wish I had a little more time to add a bit more variation on this track as a few sections stretch out a little too long, but conserving my energy to keep this up for the next week. 6 weeks down, more than 10% of the way there. That is pretty motivating.

So tense. The beginning made me super uncomfortable but in a way I liked. Love a piece of music that keeps you on edge waiting for resolution.

I really enjoyed this track, very thick synths and nice composition and arrangement. it's hard to keep my interest for 5+ minutes and this was delightfully intricate, enjoyed the whole listen. favorited
