Shortcuts Track

This song is incredibly fast-paced and packed to the brim with details and floops and doots and gorbs of all kinds. I like to pack my songs with fun little bits of ear candy, and that's usually the part that takes the longest for me. With this song being about twice as long as usual, that ended up taking quite a while. I had lots of fun with it though!



While this track is rich with all sorts of extra goobers, I wanted to nail my repetition in a way that felt fresh, yet memorable. I kept them fairly simple, at least compared to a lot of my other music, and made sure while each repetition carried a good amount of variation while still remaining, at it's core, the same. Repetition is really important to have in your music, and it's something I've always struggled with. I'm always so eager to change things up and bring my music down winding paths that often never return home. With this one, I wanted to keep home within' sight the whole way while maintaining that sense of musical adventure. All in all, I think it served the track well! In showing my friends, I've noticed them humming along to the melodies before the track is even over. Just what I was aiming for!
