It started off as a simple piano and guitar duo pice to now being a full song with a string arrangement as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have been the one to do all of the music in the song, there was vocals but i purposefully took them out as i wanted the songs main melody to be on strings instead as i personally like the sound of piano and strings together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was times in the recording process where it got stressful because i was doing all of the musical work (coming up with chord progressions, coming up with melodies and playing both the guitar and piano) and i ended up messing up the ending. To fix this i faded out the ending so the mistake wasn&#8217;t noticeable, i think this made the song sound nicer and much more finished. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I feel my strengths in this song is definitely the the chord progressions. I really like the pre-chorus as it is slightly different key to the main melody and this makes the build up to the chorus sound amazing. I also think my strength is that i worked mostly alone in this project and i managed to come up with this song (which i think is very nice). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My weaknesses for this song is that i didn&#8217;t really know wha i was doing in the mixing progress and don&#8217;t know the theory behind how EQ&#8217;s work and compressors, so that is definitely something to work on. I also think i could have done a better job at both the piano and guitar parts if i had more time, but thats just me being picky. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will now be working on improving my piano and expanding my knowledge on the theory behind the things i play as i didn&#8217;t know what key i was actually playing in until i asked Nic. I will also work on my mixing and producing skills as i quite enjoy the process of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Altogether i think i did quite a good job at making, recording and mixing this song as i did it mostly by myself and had less time than everyone else to do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If I was to do it again I would spend more time recording as I wasn&#8217;t fully happy with the piano take and I would re record the vocals again as I wasn&#8217;t happy with them.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From the start of the process to now i feel like the song has come so far.
