Audio Log: Learning Development








7/4. 95 BPM. Eleven tracks including midi piano, midi organ, midi drums, midi bass, guitar, mandolin, and vocal tracks 1-5. I started this track with the opening vocal, and got the bass and piano where I liked them. I then composed the harmonies, which made the whole thing sound like it was evolving toward a major shift. That led me to develop the organ for the B part, and I then revamped the bass and drums to match this section. The choppy delay organ came later after I realized the full organ sound (while strong and awesome) gets a bit dull with too many repetitions. This tune is my most complex to date in terms of the number of components and transitions, as well as the key change. It took a long time for me to hear where this song was taking me.
