Yes, I am still alive O_O
After almost a year long pause in music production, I'm still not ready to return fully to composing - mainly due to the fact that I'm having exams -_- So this song is merely a pre-comeback practice something, just to show that my composing engine is stirring from its slumber. It's not my best song, but still quite nice I guess.
The original FL project for this song is actually incredibly old. I saved the basic drums and melody back when I only had FL Studio and I was still using sample loops. Yes, most of the drums in this piece are pre-recorded sound samples. Everything else is my work, though. Ever since then I kept digging it up from time to time to add a few things, make some corrections, and so on, and eventually, it turned into a full song.
The song itself is a rather random mixture of instruments and styles. I outfitted the happy little reggae-ish drums with a collection of melancholic melodies, using oriental, classical and synth instruments and even a distorted electric guitar. The result is not too professional and a bit repetitive, but in my opinion the overall effect is rather nice, and it's definitely catchy :)
I generally don't like fadeout endings, but I think it goes well with this song. Btw I still suck at titles.
