About

This is a track what went a little longer than anticipated. It was made in two home studios, collaborating almost entirely remotely with Ableton.

Favourite Moment

Mixing the song in realtime from home as the other watched using Discord for video and Teamspeak for audio.

Advice

Don't stumble too hard on the mixing stage of the song. Always try to execute on a new technique. If you want to feel something, feel it in the music.
