I like that all the pieces (the vocals, the drums, the guitar, bass and keyboard line) are so steady in a forward-driving (if relaxed) kind of way. I like the feeling it creates, but I wonder how it might sound with more changes in dynamic.

The song begins very quietly and all the parts that come in are pretty quiet too, until by the end the song has built pretty substantially in kind of a sneaky way. I think that's pretty cool, but I listened to the song a few times and if I hadn't (or been able to see a visualization of the sound), I don't know that I would have noticed and I do think it's something worth drawing attention to. Good stuff, man.

Yeah, the build is subtle, I kind of like it that way in the context of the rest of the songs, which will have a lot of more noticeable changes/builds. Thanks for listening, I'll be posting more of these songs in the coming days/weeks to give those interested an idea of where the songs are at now as opposed to where they are after I take a scalpel to them and re-record things.

That said, I will definitely consider ways to add to the build in this one. I'm excited to jump back in to working on something I plan to make in to a large "project" and not just one off goofy tunes.
