about

I haven't been in Ableton for a while as I've been messing around with keyboards physically.
I've been using the VL-1, SA-76, VSS-30, HS-200, and SHS-10 lately to try and better my real-time performance.

I've endured in a small slump lately after listening to tracks I made months ago. I felt low about not being able to achieve that sort of stuff when I'm away from my computer.

Though, I've been thinking about how my illustrations are at their peak when on a computer compared to the sketches of my notepad with a pen.
Thinking about music in a similar way has me feeling more comfortable as to what I'm capable of (at this time) without a computer.

After listening to some ChillHop while drawing the other day, I've been itching to make something that was a bit more cozy.
So, I relished in VSTs and automation while I was making this and had quite the nice time. UuU
I also got to use my modified VSS-30 a bit here along with sampling the VL-1 through it. c:

While I wanted "cozy" as the main vibe, I can't help but feel that there's a bit of anxiety in there as well.

I've always wanted to make music.
Though, I've continuously psyched myself out.
But thanks to my partner Sarah (sarahduck), I'm without fear. <3
