Had fun experimenting with some deepy stuff!

This track doesn't have a really strong focus.

Attempting to create a "deep"-ish & tribey abstract vibe with a blend of organic/nature and electronic elements.

Picturing some misty jungle-ish settings.

Not a very clean/tight mix... but I'm ok with this as my starting point for deepy housey stuff.

Definitely a lot of room for improvement in transitions and mix down.

Some samples can be substituted with better ones.

Contrasts and arrangements can use better and maybe more commercial approaches.

Can't wait to learn more and do more!

This is one of the experimental segments in my "MLCWYC" project file.

Current name of this segment is "First Dance". This is not intended to be an EDM track but, as always, subject to change.

I exported this DEMO primarily for a songwriting retreat application.
The production and mixing of this DEMO version is still pretty rough -  running out of time... but I can always improve/change it later as needed.

The strings melody in the Main/Chorus sections is "stolen" from the first 8 bars of "Amore mio aiutami" - a soundtrack by Piero Piccioni in 1969.

I first heard this melody from "The Girl Next Door" (Tomppabeats) and "Dream Sequence" (Kendall Miles, I Eat Plants for a Living). Both tracks sampled from "Amore mio aiutami".

The lovely coordination of the strings in "Amore mio aiutami" sparked my imagination of some birds slow dancing together by/over/on the waters.

And when it is in my track, I picture flying creatures aerobatically interacting with each others.

Remix M+Y - Sketch 35 (option D) (Gentle Limiter 2.5 DB Only) - Submitted

Was trying to participate in Sabai's remix contest. 
Ended up late but here's the end result. 
This is also my very first finished track. 
Looking forward to more opportunities to keep myself motivated!

Disclaimer:
- guitar melodies at the outro are "stolen" from Nurko
- vocal (Claire Ridgely) is given by Sabai's contest; chopped by myself
- some progressions are inspired by Nora en pure
