Fresh Start - WIP Week 5 (Session 2)
Added 2020-03-26 15:01:01 +0000 UTCYesterday was the final session on stream it's getting close to being done! You can watch the VOD here. Here are my notes after yesterday:
Good Stuff
- I extended the arrangement - it's REALLY long, but I think it works.
- Simplified the Verse percussions and adjusted the bass to match the kick.
- I'm really happy with where the verses and drops ended up.
- Added in extra layers to the builds to help flesh it out.
- Made a proper outro.
Stuff Left to Do
- Mainly: Mix and Master.
- Also, I need to give a bit more love to the build transitions - just a couple adjustments here and there to really link everything together.
- After the mix is done, I'll be looking at the first section of the drop to see if it needs something else to help it flow.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'll be finishing the rest of the work on this song off-stream because mixing and mastering is quite tedious and I need to just focus.
Overall, this has been really fun! I don't think I'll be doing a song like this every month but I think one every other month would work really well. On that note, I'll have a vote going up next month to see what kind of song you want me to write!
Download is available for ANimals and up - see you on Friday for a DJ Stream!
As always, thanks so much for your support :)
