Spad3s: (composer, booklet commentary)

This one is probably my favorite one of the 5, and I have to mention that when asking for commentary advice I was told "Spades you could talk about how you don't know malcolm brown and yet remix unite synchronization which is by him lmao" so,, I guess thats a thing

starting is really chill, I like building atmosphere and i think it can really make or break a song, choosing the right reverb sounds and settings, making the compressions the right amount of crushing, etc. designing desigining the electronic yet kind of organic pads was also fun, but then the real fun starts.

something i do a lot that you can hear in this song is, just show the cards in my hand soon after the song starts, hooking in the listener because its like, woah, super cool trippy basses and the song hasn't even started! then i kinda make a generic electro beat that gets switched with breaks every few seconds to make a cool hook, then right off to the breakdown. I love how the supersaws came out on this one, I must have layered like 6 sounds or something, supersaws and basses to make that huge strong monolithic texture, disrupted by small bass fills that set the mood for whats to come. Into the rise we go, a pretty standard edm rise, with lots of weird sidechain stuff going on, and the drop imo delivers if in a different way than the intro suggested. You still get those fills here and there in the drop to glue it all together, but i think the use of supersaws and melodies in the drop, turning this from complextro to progressive house-ish is a pleasant surprise. The second part of the drop goes back to the monolithic saws but now they're just a part of a texture instead of being the main focus, of course i had to go to the glitchy drum breaks after, using a piano for more of the melody of the original song i wanted to bring in. being familiar with the original song, this might strike you as a weird change, as the 3rd (i think) bar gets a 1 semitone raise that isn't in the original. I felt like that gave it a cool twist that made the section kinda distant from the rest of a song, kind of a dreamy break to get you back on your feet, and going around the circle again, for a second drop. after the second drop, i completely bring the song full circle and end it with the same sounds that started it, and like i often do, slowly bit crush it because that makes songs endings sound awesome

Anyway, can you tell i like this one by the amount of commentary?
