Fly or fall, make your own path.
It's always getting good then I glance at the time and I've got a minute left..
Archery. It takes dedication. It takes getting up earlier than everyone to shoot over, over, and over again to perfect the skill. It becomes a way of life.
Beep beep boop.
Post processing was minimal (1 compressor and Ozone), but I did sing over some parts that weren't good
Behind the long, red sky
How far will the sun-set reach
Behind every hill
Each tree, each blade of grass
Stories left untoldĀ
How far will you go?
As the arrow flies.
Some kinda highland dancin' piece or something. It has fiddle, pipes, pan flute, and guitar, and sounds vaguely rustic. And there's a sample of a bow being fired, so you know it's on theme.
Feel the rush
I tried something initially, but i wasn't a fan of it, completely unrelated to the images. I'd figure i'd share it, because it's something cool, and it turns out a certain someone requested a style of music ;) No but seriously, i didn't even know, until after i checked, what an amazing coincidence. Anyways, enjoy this industrial number, my real attempt will be down below!
The clock is ticking and you only have one chance to hit the bullseye. You can do this.
(this was a 25-minute entry!)
I was late to start due to dinner
This track encompasses mostly samples side-chained to the extreme and soaked in reverb for something experimental. The track is minimalistic to a dree, but that's because the sidechaining is an instrument in itself, not an effect, and because of how extreme it is, it makes for some cool combo's in my opinion. The only other thing to mention, is some pad chords, some kicks and percussion, as well as slow changes to new sections. I hope you enjoy!
