Hey guys!

I was away from the studio all week so had to make this one on the go.
This was an old song I had laying on the m8 that started as a "one track challenge", but got out of hand as I started to add more tracks and got carried away.
The main ideia was exploring chord changes on hypersynth and some remix commands.

I hear this tune more as an exercise rather than a fully fleshed out song with a message and a though out arrangement but as always, the goal here is to show up for the WB.

All done on the M8 with some post-processing in Ableton Live.

Hope you have fun! See you next week!

Thanks!
Remix commands are tracker commands on the Dirtywave M8 that allow you to set the playhead to a specified position, making it possible to re-sequence the sequence! They're unpredictable which makes them good fun to mess around.

I still have yet to use the RMX command! Even tho I keep telling myself I'll use it. It's great that you started off with a one track vibe and then became totally inspired to just keep building on it, that's always exciting. This is a great tune!! Love the swing/groove, also got some really nice stereo effects going on, the panning is sick. Those hypersynth chords are awesomeeee!! You're a chord wizard for sure. heart

Glad you revisited and morphed this one track challenge, I dig it. I also need to get on the RMX command

As a song, rather than an exercise, it's decent, but you could let the chords linger a bit more.
