Exploring The Ocean (7DaysofVGM August 2020 Day 1)

With the #21DaysofVGM now becoming the #7DaysofVGM, here's my first submission for the week! We set sail on our small boat, starting slow from the shore but quickly the warm sun beats down, the waves crash against the hull, and the birds glide above. But in the ocean, not all is calm... there are dangers to be found on the water, and if you're lucky to come through the other side you can call yourself a true sailor. Please enjoy Set Sail!

Set Sail!

#7DaysofVGM - Underwater Exploration

This is part of the #7DaysofVGM challenge! Day One's theme was exploring the ocean. I've always liked 7/8 because of how it gives a little bit of an off kilter feel with the beats grouped as 3+2+2. If you aren't familiar, part of the challenge is to post whatever you have, something>nothing and done>perfect. In this case its a something>nothing scenario and this was what I got out of my head. I was imagining this specifically as a bright, clear morning setting sail on the waves on the start of a new adventure. At the end I wasn't sure where to go with a melody but I got a bass line. Feedback welcome!
