I decided that instead of slaving over the same song for a huge amount of time and trying to make it as perfect as possible (without getting close, because what is "perfect" anyway), I'd give myself a day to make a song and upload it no matter what. Here's that song! Sure, there are issues with this, but I want to get better at working more quickly and learn to move on more quickly so I can make more work. Maybe this is a good way to blerp out a bunch of mediocre tracks, but maybe a change of pace will produce better results? Who knows.


Hope you like it.


*Edit* I wish I had worked more on this. I think I'll come back to it and upload a newer version in a few weeks when I've left it and had time to work on other things.

Nice track, it has a good buildup with a bit of a breather in the middle. It's a bit surprising you made this in a day! I'm going to have to check out you other stuff for sure!

Thanks for the comment :) A lot of the newer songs are my page have been re-mixed and are sounding much better! I plan to re-mix them (AGAIN) for a school assignment with real drums I've recorded, so I hope you'll enjoy listening to those when they're up :)

A very cool Synthwave track, especially considering the time constraints you put on yourself. I found myself enjoying the chill vibe from start to finish, though I do feel as though the sparser central section could have benefited from a burst or two of classic 80's electronic tom drums.

Suffice to say, a very nice throwback jam! Somewhat repetitive musical themes overall, and I love to hear a bit more variance, but I can't really fault you for it since the whole thing was cranked out in the space of a day. Always happy to hear something new from you, man.

McGorilla42 responds:

Hey, Chrono! :) Very happy to hear from you and to see this feedback. I noticed that a lot of synthwavey stuff is really repetitive, but I'll explore ways to keep it repetitive, but in an interesting way. And I'll definitely add some of those toms to the next one -- I know exactly what you're talking about and those are the bomb. Hope you're doing well :)

Hey, this is pretty neat stuff! It's a relaxing listen, and gave me some of that sweet 80s feel :3
I wish you luck in your endeavour to produce more music!!

McGorilla42 responds:

Hello Mr LSD :) Thanks for the comment! I'm about to work on some more right now so your luck must have worked. Hope you're doing well!
