This is fantastic!

And also made me grin because it’s the name of this wee nightmare:

Haha, she’s sweet!

Also, thank you, glad you liked it! It was great to have the push to finally arrange this, I’d worked through a couple of other tracks from around the same time period and had given this one up as a lost cause, but your framing for the month gave me the impetus.

I wan’t planning on doing anything this month. But I ended up doing this anyway and I can kind of force into the theme “something borrowed” maybe

Basically this was a learning exercise - using my sampler to make an looping sample type thing, It was all done using a single 1 minute sample from the soundtrack of the film I watched on Saturday night, If anyone can work out the film I will be impressed. Maybe it’s doable with google

Probably best listened to whilst dropping off for a nap

Is it the Walter Salles version of On The Road?

Also, this is mega, love it as it is, though it also sounds like it should break into some serious backpacker hip-hop at some point. I kept waiting for a drop and a verse, but I also feel very lulled and enjoyed it a lot.

Nope

I had a self imposed brief just to stick to that single sample , so although I thought about going that way I decided not to. Also I suspect I lack the skills to make it happen. Maybe a V2 at some point

Thanks as well!

Dang it! Thought I’d done a quick Googleslam on that. Nice work, sticking to self-imposed limits is always a headache for me, I get serious mission creep (digital audio is a nightmare, no one should ever tell me I can have as many instruments as I want)

This is really lovely. Really cool when the extra instruments kick in

I wish I could create/ sing a vocal melody that moves up and down so freely like that

Thank you! 23-year-old me spent a lot of time writing songs, I had nothing else to be doing really. I’m going to upload the other ones I worked on from the same time period to that Bandcamp soon as an EP, this was the last one that I hadn’t done.

Thank you! Glad you like it, this is giving me the confidence to maybe do some more actual songs in the new year.

What, it’s great man! Find it so hard to believe sometimes people so adept at music can feel so shy about it. Suppose the race is always with ourselves but still :man_shrugging: it’s great, listened to it twice in a row now :slight_smile:

That’s awesome, thank you!

Just FYI I’ve bunged the rest of the tracks from those old demos on that Bandcamp now, I guess completing that process is the real end of this month’s art challenge for me.

Halfway through the month, pals.

Any more entries? G’wan.
