Another random creation

using a lot of the same instruments as the last few electronic instrumentals I've shared. They mostly come from a set called "The Forge", and the drums are from 2 sets called "Digicussion". I think I will take parts of this for something in the future, particularly the intro part. Not sure if I love the latter half of the song, Track 2 is a bit overpowering, but I dunno, maybe I'll find a way to incorporate it.

Listen to Clapping here.

Track 1 begins the song

and is pictured in the screenshot below. This instrument has a lot going on, the notes cut in and out at random, and jump up and down octaves at various points, which makes for a cool effect. Track 2 was supposed to help harmonize with 1 a bit, but I don't know how well the timbres work together. Maybe it will grow on me, but, y'know, they can't all be hits, haha. Track 5 follows the same progression as Track 1, just using a different instrument to accent the notes a bit more, since they get a bit lost in Track 1.

Tracks 3 and 4

are our drums, with Track 3 providing the kicks and snares, and some other random hits, and Track 4 the hihats. Finally we have Track 6, which just uses a triangle wave synth sound. I just wanted to add a little melody, and the fast notes here feel kinda spastic, which I think fit nicely with the general craziness going on in the rest of the track.

I hope you've enjoyed today's walkthrough, and dig the song! Thanks for listening!
