I've been thinking of different approaches to the weekly music composition project, though a head cold this weekend left me less time and energy to work on it, so...new approaches will be for other weeks. This one has a little difference, though: I'd started with three tracks of unaffected PureSalem Mendiola, and put together a piece...which I then started whacking away at: removing notes in the first iteration, and supplementing on a fourth track with little gestures and sounds from one of the clips in that section. So it's sparse, but not as sparse as it would have been otherwise.

There's the usual convolution reverb, though this one gets two channels of reverb send. Then the usual compression/eq on the stereo.

The title comes from a road that's part of Maryland route 615.

I played a cyberpunk game this week and of course had to make a synthwave track. Here we go.

I am happy with the progress I'm doing with drums programming. Taking drums lesson has been really the key to get a feel of how drums can propulse a song. I'm still very much in the early days of learning but it's really good to feel progress.
