Here’s an ambient piece of music that I created one day just jammed a few layers on the nord and juno.
Then I wanted to add some drums and churned out this mix below.
Then I tried to add a kick drum.. that final piece! ….. and it lost all the magic. The kick isn’t right.
Adding the kick drums flattened the dynamic range or something and the ambient bits are lost and it doesnt have that high-octane emotional drive that I was trying to achieve.
