Ed Ryan - Oublié

It certainly has been a while (again)

The project started back in early march, after i completed my final french courses. But as new things kept on coming up, the song was pushed back even though it was mostly finished.

I think you can hear quite clearly that this song is much older than my previous two in which a lot more action is going on. But "Oublié" was supposed to be more on the simpler side to better focus on the melancholic atmosphere.

The recorder is still the same as in Hidden Sickness and a couple of other songs of mine. I've grown to be a recorder enjoyer over the years. A big inspiration of the song was one of the leitmotifs in the Nils Holgersson anime, which is generally full of melancholy and a sense of longing.

A lot of time has gone into mixing and mastering in the last few weeks. If you have to wait several months for a new song, it should at least sound as good as possible. I effed up at some small spots, just don't notice them.

I really like the airiness and E minor, as well as the outro. Maybe i should have added a few more highlights.

The cover has little to do with the song and was created more out of necessity. But it's still better than asking AI for an image.

I probably won't be able to do 11 songs as last year, but a fifth song should be possible.
