Kinda another hack track. Spent a little longer than last week trying to get things mixed right. Maybe once I get into a more consistent cadence for recording I can spend more time laboring over the arrangement. Still just trying to spend time doing things :-P

Smackos 808 for the drums, 2 ableton build-in sounds for rhodes + bells, 0-coast through an overdrive for the bass.

Despite how epic the song is and how fitting the title is, my wife came up with it because she joked that what I really wanted to do today was play Divinity: Original Sin 2.

Sunday, October 1.

15:05 - 17:20: I am taking guitar lessons. Today's lessons is to do scales more smoothly across two octaves. While listeners might not really hear differences, behind the scenes I'll be working on playing on scale tones more dexteriously.

I also watched a pretty good 4 and a half video about making thicker, more epic chords. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3U5PBQDpxM

This is a little more soulful and epic than the music I normally do?

Total time: 2h 15m

Continue to be short on time, so this is just a short ambient thing.

Yet another busy week...but it should lighten up after this. Here's a quick improv with the Max/MSP patch, with guitar as the input. There's a bit of convolution reverb on the output. Noise at the beginning comes from the variable bit-depth and sample-rate deduction, and while I wanted that out...it's just kind of part of it now.

Continuing with last week's challenge of using only my sax to create all the source sounds, I've decided to take what I learned last week and push it even further. Hopefully you guys dig it as much as last week's.
