Progress:Rough Draft
Started this project on my iPad using Korg Gadget, then exported as a Live set to continue it. Converted a few tracks to MIDI in order to augment the original audio instruments with the Kasio Max device, added various FX and the ocean sounds, and mixed. Quite happy with the workflow of iPad > Ableton.

nice chillout vibe!

Thanks! It's an unusually mellow and "calm" piece for me, as I tend to gravitate towards up-tempo dance type stuff. But when the mood strikes to slow down a tick... make it so! ;)

Really beautiful piece, I am only listening to this through my laptop speakers at the moment but will definitely be routing it through the stezza this evening.

Yeah the idea of adding waves crashing on the beat came to me right after I had the sketch for this song on my iPad. Dunno why, but something about it just seemed "oceany" to me. Plus I like that the waves are so close to white noise, they really fill out the frequency spectrum.

Tweaked the piano to not be so "present" (thanks yaneev!) and did a major file consolidation. Had a whole bunch of raw material that didn't need to be there. A little freeze & flatten and voila... all clean.

Ocean sounds give this track a special flavour. Nice relaxed start. Piano is a bit overwhelming, I agree.

Hmmm good idea, I think I'm going to see about drastically EQing the piano to thin it out. Thanks for the suggestion and glad you like the melody! But don't explode... LOL

the synth melody is so cute, i think i'll explode. it's kinda kraftwerk-cute. the piano is a bit too full-sounded in this context, maybe some bass could compliment it? otherwise i didn't really miss a bass line (written bu a bass addict).

Pretty well done I think... always hard to say for sure.
