Hit The Happy - Cellardoor

Description : Today was kind of a game changer for me. I figured out musical typing in my DAW, so instead of notating a score in Noteflight and then importing it over to my DAW, I played in all of the parts manually, which meant that I got more irregular, organic performance, instead of precision-perfect. I also ended up mixing, producing, and composing at the same time, which is different from my usual process which usually starts with composition first--and this time I found it easier to establish a groove. So it was definitely a day with a new process, and I think it contributed to my education as an EDM composer.

Hey this is a really fun and happy track. The melodies are playful and the piano does well in keeping the track and all the different synths together.

Really cool piece especially since you played all the parts. I can hear some of the synths slightly off but honestly I don't really see it as a flaw, rather a genuine music style derived from very slight human error.

I also find that some mixing to an extent along the creative musical process as an advantage because it helps to create a clearer musical picture. But in the end it all depends on the individual.

Great work!

Atmospheric liquid drum & bass meets deep house and UK garage, blending rolling breakbeats, deep sub-bass, chopped ethereal female vocals and nostalgic late-night ambience.

Description : I wanted to create something dark and romantic with an RnB and retro wave touch. This song has a retro futurism feel to it. I was inspired by The Weeknd when I was writing this song, especially his first mixtape, House Of Balloons, hence the deep roamntic analogies in the songwriting. I have sung this song myself and produced it too. No AI used here. This is an old song.
