Was going for an AB structure with this song, but the A and the B are kind of off kilter. I was trying to use the A part to build a ton of tension and then release it in the B part, but it seems as if the B isn't even in the same song as the A part. Perhaps an ABA structure would have worked better for this.
Track Notes/Self Feedback:
Melody: Just played all "melodic" parts improvised. I think I did a few different takes and picked the best ones, not a whole lot of effort went into making a good melody here.
Harmony: Simple Progression, nothing complicated needed or desired here.
Dynamics: The hand played dynamics probably could be more elaborate,
Groove/Beats: Only two beats really used here and a bit of chopping. Wasn't really focusing on the beats in this go around.
Sound Design: Spent a good amount of time on getting the sounds to gel together well. Was looking for kind of an ambient feel that would sound ok with an analogy style arp bass motion. Percussives could use a lot of work, very static.
Ambience: No significant ambience in this track.
Mood: Definitely a good mood (going for a frustrated tension) in this track especially the first part, I just feel like it could have resolved better with a different B.
Structure: AB structure probably isn't the best for the divergent ideas used in this track. Ideas in this track are probably better suited for an ABA structure.
Mix: Very little time spent on mixing, probably could stand to have a bit more focus on foreground/background
Plans for this track: May revisit it a few months, not in love with it, don't hate it.
