Something about holding my breath? IDK

Bleary Bridge?

Obscure Overpass?

Crepuscular Catwalk?

Soupy Scaffold?

Employed some new vsts, including some "Tibetan singing bowls", new chimes, and glassy things. Something lonely and desolate for the departed who linger about a passageway to their realm, or something like that.

Impact Soundworks Plectra Series 5: Guzheng

Kinda forgot how to use this thing so had to relearn some of it on the fly, still kinda trashy but oh well

Bass made from a goose honk, ran through a granular synthesizer (Emission Control 2), then made into a Wavetable and tweaked. First time using a compressor to intentionally pump a pad.

lyrics? in an hour? impossible

lyrics:

spent my days sittin'

where the grass ain't greener

you've got a new demeanor

is that what life's like

on the other side?

spend my nights wishin'

one day i'll be braver

i'll aim for somethin greater

but i can't move forward

no matter how i try

try as i may

i can't get over you

leavin me this way

try as i may

i can't move forward

try as i may

you tried your best i guess

but i just stay the same

you built the bridge

i can't get over it

[verse]

You take your steps toward the other side

A bridge too far, and yet you saunter right over

With every step it wobbles to and fro

and then you feel it when you get the cold shoulder

You freeze in place, your feet cannot go forward

The destination is a speck in the distance

An ounce of strength is what would steel resolve

But on the other hand, you'll rest for a minute

[chorus]

If you fall, you will soon recall there's a ground

It isn't bottomless

The bridge can kill, if you drop you will make a sound

With no one else around

[verse]

Your body tenses, nearly halfway there

and grip on tighter as you fight for your balance

A simple slip and you could end it all

The mental strain alone could drive you to panic

We were awalkin

Above the forest

Without knowing

What lay before us

The bridge was aswingin

And we were shakin

But we had each other

Were not forsaken

Is this how our life goes?

This unknown, unknown

But if its with you

Thats ok, thats ok

Second entry since I finished early.

Pro tip, use the images provided for inspiration.

went for a creepy vibe dont know if it does sound creepy tho

Take a walk on the bridge

through the trees through the canopy

Take my hand and grip it tight

Listen to the birds as the sing

The sun goes down tonight

There are no stars just you and me

technically a midi rip. ran out of time to do much with it.

It really tied the room together

Think of it as a drum jam, but with lots of varied percussion, chanting, and really just a...less structured approach. Imagine a group of natives all dancing together and playing the drums. Jungle themes = tribal yes?

Had a lot of fun with this, hope you do too.

ahhhhhhh

Before you lies the bridge. This is the last milestone that you remember your father talking to you about. Last time, he stopped here, as the risk was too high. Today, you will make history.

Criss-cross above the trees

Below is everything that I can see

Critters, birds, and rustling leaves

Nothing escapes my gaze

But when you cross below

I steal a sordid glance

The one place I cannot see

Is within your heart
