It's always super fun to hear updated versions of old songs! It's one of those things I feel like many artists think about creating all the time, but rarely get to. You did get to it, however! It sounds so nice too <3
I hope you're doing well!!

I submitted the original version of this track to Newgrounds back in 2011, but it was probably composed about twenty years ago or more. It's just one of those pieces that keeps coming back to my mind, and that can actually be a bit of a rarity as an artist. That said, it seemed like a good time to remake the track from the ground up, so...here we are. Some instruments and progressions have changed, others have remained the same, but I believe the spirit of the music remains.

Lucid! It's always super fun to hear from you, too! This is just one of those tunes that I really loved when it first came bubbling up in my mind, and the idea of revisiting it has been silently teasing me for years. I guess that I finally decided to do something about it! :D I'm really happy to know that it's so well received.
I am doing quite well! Edging closer and closer to the big FIVE OH, if it can be believed. I sure don't feel as old as all that. Most days, anyway. Haven't really done anything on the production side of things since remixing this track, but I'm always tuned in to the musical tides. Stay awesome, mate! I pray that all is well with you and yours. <3
I love when an old piece gets stuck in your head and won't come out. I find myself stumbling upon old motifs by accident, or interpolating an tune I wrote into a new context without meaning to. The best is having the motivation to go back and touch on a deserving idea, left in the drawer. That's the nature of music, I think, just waiting for the next execution, a breath of life, something natural. That sums up my feelings about this piece, actually.
ChronoNomad responds:
So beautifully stated, ADR3-N. Revisiting those old tracks is kind of like being reunited with an old friend. :D
I really like the vibe this song brings, it would work really well for like an open world type game i think. I specifically liked the guitar a lot, its a very nice touch to this, and the piano motifs in the middle were especially creative. Nice work!
ChronoNomad responds:
Thanks, Ackee! It's an updated classic from my early repertoire, but changing that section to guitar feels really successful to me. It's my favorite touch, for sure. With such nice piano motifs, it would have been a shame to not revisit it again with more experience and a better DAW.
