Feelings (Original Mix)

I'm fighting with this track for a long time now. First drafts were created back in 2018 august. At the moment it was a post-rock / progressive rock epic that included every trick and practice i knew about music composition. Then i stopped writing music for a few years and it stayed in it's unreleased demo form for long.

Since last year i started this new electronic project, i thought some of my older, unrealised music should be repurposed to finally come to life. I pictured it will be a quite easy task.

Well, it was an extremely hard undertaking for me to strip this one to it's bare minimums and reshape it into a more ambient / chillout sounding thingy. But i learned so much about music and myself along the way...
I've written and erased melodies and chords in this track for so long that i could have written a whole album from the deleted ideas only.

The cover art is a Midjourney generated image with a strong influence from The Fountain (2006), a movie in which a man learns to let things go and embrace fate after a 500 years long journey. I think it is rather fitting. 

Thanks again for the beautiful mixing and mastering work to https://soundcloud.com/forgottendreams

Hope you will like it.

Make Love Not War

Believe it or not, this track was born, because i started playing with Spitfire's Christmas instruments (https://labs.spitfireaudio.com/christmas if you are interested).
While i liked the sounds, i did not like the music itself, so i started switching up the instruments and adding more and more of that Argon Antlers sauce i'm working on.

Guess this year i listened to too much deep techno, because at one point it morphed into this repetition of washed and mushy melodies and textures. I tried to use the least amount of musical ideas and then stretch them for as long as possible. I really like what it became.

Even though the sound quality is not as good as before. This time my majestic friend https://soundcloud.com/forgottendreams was not available to mix and master the music. So, I had to mix it, and I gave it to the SoundCloud AI for mastering. Honestly, I don't like the way how it sounds and thought of not releasing this until I know how to handle the mix myself, but I'm postponing my career for so long that taking a pause again would be more painful than accepting some subpar qualities.

Later, I'll make a remix to do some justice for this one. Until then, hope you'll find something in it that is worth hearing.

EDIT at 23.11.12: i replaced the audio file with a new master. It is still far from perfect, but much better than before...
