Here's a commission for CrateTM !
as of late ive been writing commentary via journal entries
so heres that :)

2025/01/26
got asked about this while at work, asked a few small questions and started humming some ideas while On Da Job (it was a very quiet day today)
i struggle to remember the humming at the moment but i got very into it
what i've got at this moment might be a bit too film-y, but its just the intro. big long strings which evolve into big chords, the harpsichord playing a motif, and an eventual big hit/higher toms over it. i intend to speed it up and give it a more swing/triplet feel from this point, if i keep it.
i like what I have so far, but its already about a min long and id feel bad about charging for a min of intro? i gotta figure this shit out nice.
i was given Bronze Rebel as a vibe reference but what i kinda do with most comms is listen to it once, get a Kind Of Idea and then sort of forget it? it usually works out in the long run but its been a long time since i've made music For Someone with a Purpose like that.
anyway after shit speeds up im chucking some rapid fire harpsichord thing
i need to add a flute or some high wind solo instrument
2025/01/27
man i downloaded a hurdy gurdy library to fuckn work on this track but my version of kontakt is too old to use it
anyway, i've cut down the intro a bit, cutting straight to the percussion impacts and making the speed ramp up sooner.
ive added brass and woodwinds to the long string chords because i can do that im allowed to
also adding the flute synth that i love to it
2025/01/28
was asked for a big crash or thunder at the Drop, and i have obliged :D
added spiccato strings in the new section and that jumpy harpsichord is there
also added an actual drum kit to help drive this thing along
new melody in the flute
ive dropped a stormy ocean ambience below everything (cc0) to give more Ocean Vibe, waves and stuff
this time i worry if ive gone Too Hard, i dont know if this is meant to be a general track or something more akin to the Friendsims, where the themes are a bit more muted and in the background, generally less "epic"
later in the day:
swag they seem happy with it!
added a bassy synth matching some of the big percussion hits bc it seemed fitting? might drop it
making a slow down section with big chords, moving into a new middle paced section with a new chord progression. the ocean is volatile and can shift on a whim baybee
asking client if they're ok with it being more than 3 mins long like they asked for, bc im Enjoying Working on this a lot
if yes: im adding the bit of the intro i stripped too
2025/01/30
got a new thunder hit for later ones
also got the goahead to make this thing longer, so i added the cut into bit back
im annoyed at native instruments for fucking me over at the moment, updated a library because it broke for some reason and now i have to buy a new version of kontakt to use it :( no plucked guitar for me i guess
anyway. oboe line, because bronze rebel got me thinking
slowdown with the flute again, before kicking into one final Big Section 
maybe 2x length? and then have to slow it down and make it loop (i havent done this yet, just planning)
2025/02/03
i tried adding creaks, didnt like it lol
in the last chorus, gave a new kinda melody to the harpsichord, and brought back the flute and dropped in the oboe melody
stripping away elements to lead to the ending and loop
jesus christ trying to get the end bit work properly working so it doesnt sound like shit looping was an ORDEAL. it just kept crashing.....
later in the day:
almost done, after asking for final ideas, got pitched putting an electric guitar in place of the harpsichord melody at tne end
so i did that, also matched it with that weird little bass synth i have in the middle for whatever reason
also added Big Sub Hits in that slower B section too. yippee
should be done depending on confirmation!
