SUPPORT ME ON PATREON! -- patreon.com/triplebmusic
This is another one of the first songs I learned how to play and sing, about years ago. I still find it a little tricky since it has a lot of little chord changes throughout that can make everything sound wrong if I don't do it right.
I'm currently working on a cover of a Final Fantasy 6 tune. I've been working on the arrangement for almost a month because I was dealing with motivation issues and I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted to do with it, but I figured it out soon enough. It should be out in the next week or so.

Hey yall, I got another long arrangement for you! This was for David Wise month over at Dwelling of Duels this November. No video performance this time; I felt like because of the length and the fairly long sections with not much going on, a visualizer was best for this one.
Im really proud of this one, not just because of how good I feel I did, but because it also represents another shift in my usual sound. The arrangement is fairly similar to other longer tracks Ive done, with starting pretty low-key, developing into a bigger-ish section, dropping back down, coming back in for the heaviest section, and then dropping off again at the end to send it off. But I did a lot to customize my guitar/bass tones and especially the drum sound this time around to better suit what I had in mind for the track, rather than just going with my usual presets and only tweaking them slightly. The drum part I also wrote pretty differently, going for a much less metally, double-kicky kind of approach and going for more of a heavy post-rock kind of sound. With listening to a lot more music this year thats different from what I used to for a long time, I wanted to incorporate some of that into my music more, and while that showed up a bit in my recent covers, this one shows it a lot more.
I also did a lot of work on production during the arranging phase this time around rather than saving for right before mixing, and I think it really affected the vibe of the track and how I recorded more parts later. I did things like using water sounds in the intro, middle and end (referencing the water sounds in the original of course! :D ), utilizing the cutoff/resonance filters on my synth sound, among other parameters, and doing a weird unintelligible whispered thing in the middle. Dont ask me how I thought of that, it just came to me and decided its what the part needed lol.
With all that to say, I hope you enjoy this one! I think its best enjoyed on headphones because of the extremes in dynamics. Btw, I left some intentional Deftones and Big Wreck references in the music, let me know if/when you catch them! ;P
