So I didn't know how much I needed to make this weeks track, until after I made it. For the last few weeks I have been doing a lot of "skill development". Like I've mostly made tracks because I'm trying to get better a specific thing... which adds a lot of cognitive load to the process, you know? So this week I decided to just make sounds... like, to just feel out loud. And... man I had a lot of feels that required a voice. This is a tense time in lots of places, but kind of everyone in the US is running on like 60% energy reserves as a starting place, because of the backdrop of simmering chaos that is our country right now... and I don't know that I have really processed that... ╮(╯_╰)╭ And I think that's what this track became. I don't know if I like the track, but I'm also not sure that it's meant to be "liked"... I don't know, many artsy musing to be said, but I'll spare you my opinions, but it was (maybe ironically) cathartic to just scream into the pillow of music for a day.
One note worthy point though, is given the intention to just give voice to my general sense of unease, I started with a sample heart monitor that Tone Matrix shared in the Community Garden (on Discord), that I think in many ways crystalized my feelings. So big shout out to Tone on this one, he is literally the heart of the track <3 ... (୨୧•͈ᴗ•͈)◞ᵗʱᵃᵑᵏઽ*♡
