So this week is like fully speedtrash ʱªʱªʱª(ᕑᗢूᓫ∗) ...
I spent most of the week picking away at a track on my Polyend Tracker Mini, and I actually really like it, which is part of the problem... like it needs more work to do justice to what's already there... and I'm busy with some other things this weekend... so last minute pivot. For this one I basically held the feeling of "the grind" in my head... that seemingly endless march towards mediocrity that is life in a corporate American job... and then I just started layering favorited presets until I ran out of time. Since I only had a couple of hours, the result is pretty rough, but hey, maybe that’s the point.
On a personal note, I feel like I'm kinda getting my groove back a little. Like, I think I was trying to do too much in January, and now I'm slowing things down and accepting that I have to pace myself more than I'm accustomed to... the world is just a lot, and I guess that means we all just need to give ourselves a little more "headroom" so to speak. Anyway... I hope you are all doing well this week and staying sane out there. <3

I didn't try anything new here, I just reached for the tried and true. It’s basically just six layers of some of my "go-to" media libraries: Ashlight, Straylight, and Kaivo for the granular textures, layered with Fables and some Tina Guo Acoustic Cello. I did break out iZotope Nectar 4 for the Pharlight vocal granular patch, that I kind of treated like a "real" voice. It was nice to actually use that plugin for once since I hardly ever mix vocals, but it has some pretty awesome presets in it.
