First the warmth, then the sunset.
What a rush-
The inspiration gave me relaxed 80s synth vibes, so that's what I aimed for even though I have no idea what I'm doing in this genre.
I remake the first electronic music I made.And that music is my first music I made by myself for my program. I think it prove myself that I had be improved a lot in past one year.
I'm just a junior school student who never learn anything about music.And I can't play any musical instruments that I only can use mouse to click all the notes in FL.That spend me lot times when I made some complex melody : )But exactly that is really fun.I enjoy it =D
a flood of color
flood of radiating heat
another summer drenched
in reds, so sickly sweet
a neon haze above
that's flooding from the north
looks like i'll be spending summertime indoors
(i didn't think armageddon
was gonna be this a e s t h e t i c)
so another day has passed me by
i can feel it when the sun goes down
least i have you here by my side
stay with me until the sun goes down
unlucky chance
That you’re here
What’s the odds I run into you?
What a chore
To be seeing you
After so long ago it was!
And the world stops
Doors close around me
Keep me from running away
I don’t wanna see with you
Stand the sight of you
Not this time again
Close my mind
Lost with you
Lost with you baby
Are we through?
Yes but I keep staring
Am I
Lost with you
Lost with you baby
What’s there to do?
But yet we’re close
ZERO TIME FOR MIXING. That's literally what compo is all about. Everything in regards to composition is there, but the mix is not polished put it this way lol. Still sounds good, but miles from ideal.
So my track is a synthwave inspired number with a heavy trance like chord progression. It's got a blend of 80's styled sounds, syncopated dance chords, and a Untz beat all topped off with uplifting semi summer melodies, and a really dynamic melody. It also contains a few.....synth based sections where it's mostly arps and stuff, than melodies. The ending is a little shoehorned in, but don't blame me, blame the clock. 1 hr and 30 minutes is actually less time than you think, it creeps up on you.
It's not the most amazing of tracks, but it is something worth listening, so i hope you enjoy!
Heavily inspired by the hotline miami ost
This became nothing that I intended it to be... I swear I didn't set out with the intent to make something dark and foreboding! But time is up and here it is!
