Development log - Harutopia (part 1)
As with "the bed of diverse flowers," I didn't give myself a concrete formula for this album, continuing on with the freeform approach that I took previously and rolling with it. I'm also at a point where I no longer need to write anything in my OneNote notebook about the creation of this album, instead opting for things to just come and flow through. With that being said, I'm gonna keep on aiming for album-wide consistency for this album, seeing that that's more or less worked with "the bed of diverse flowers."
I think this first track is a significant improvement in composition, incorporating many complex melodies and syncopations, alongside an attempt and creating atmosphere as indicated by the echoing pings that can be heard throughout the song. While this song has the soft intro heard in all of my first tracks of the 7SoSB series, the way the introduction sections evolve with each passing album makes for some interesting marks in how I've improved my composition over the years.
Looking forward to what comes in the following days!
This album will be self-promoted on Battle of the Bits and social media. RIP 9-Bit Records, no one really knew its worth.
