'Strange Version 2' - New Original Music - Spending 5 Minutes on Some Quick Changes - Electronic/Instrumental + Walkthrough
I spent 5 minutes (precisely) last night
just doing a few little changes on this track from the other day. Since this was a timed writing challenge, it was suggested to me I should time the rest of the process too. I sort of combined a little mixing and writing here, but I figured 5 minutes would be a good, limited number for adding things that I couldn't get to in the original 20 minutes. Perhaps I'll do one last timed session, adding some effects, and mixing/'mastering' this, maybe over the weekend.

I removed Track 7 from the beginning
of the song, and just used it over the second A section each time around. Track 10 was changed to not happen over the 'empty' A sections, and instead to accent each chord change in the more full part. I also added Track 13, which is just hihats. I'm not sure if I love this sound, but I think I'll have to live with it, as this is supposed to all be done within the time limits, lol. Mixing wise, I beefed up the kick drum (in a new track, separate from the snares, just doubled the CR-78) and added some side chain compression on the bass synth so it cuts through a little more, and altered some of the levels of a few of the tracks.
Track 10, Edited Synth Line.
Hope you like the updates on this tune! Thanks for listening!
