Approaching Nirvana

January Poll - Song Briefs

Added 2020-02-01 19:01:15 +0000 UTC

Last month you decided that we'd make a Drum and Bass track with a Motivated (Driven/Perseverance/Daunting Challenge) Mood. This month, we're voting on specific briefs for the song and during February & March I'll be writing this song live on Twitch.

Briefs are below, pick the one you like best!

OPTION 1: You're climbing a mountain in the winter and the snow has just picked up. What was hard already has gotten even harder. Each step is more difficult than the last. You push forward to try and reach the summit as the snowfall intensifies.

OPTION 2: The relationship is over. Everything was going well until suddenly the rug was pulled out from underneath you. While grief, sadness, and anger have run their course - you are ready to move on. But it's not that easy. Each and every day is a struggle just to be yourself and to learn how to be "you" again. But you won't give up. You know at the end of the road is a better place with unfulfilled adventures and amazing new experiences. But for now, you need to soldier on each day to get there.

OPTION 3: You awake one morning with a blank stare. The world has left you behind and you only just noticed. You get out of your bed and the world seems brighter for the first time in a long time. The sun is brighter, the air is warmer, and the breeze is crisp and refreshing as it blows by. It's time to get moving - to do things you would have balked at before and to take risks you would have said no to in the past.
