Hi everyone - here is a 16 bar intro to something (?) for your listening pleasure Any & all feedback gratefully received https://drive.google.com/file/d/1L6aAnFk2n12ZgOPWfcxjd8LIhJ3XzaTZ/view?usp=sharing

Native Instruments Gmbh are have entered insolvency proceedings. Other companies possibly affected include the wider group - iZotope, Plugin Alliance, and Brainworx. The European Commission has apparently cleared a planned acquisition of the NI group by Bridgepoint and Bain Capital Credit, though it’s unclear whether the transaction has completed. I use plugins from all of these sources, they're great. Let's hope they survive .. https://mixmag.net/read/music-tech-company-native-instruments-enters-preliminary-insolvency-tech

Had a go at this one yesterday evening - rather quick turnaround for me, so curious to hear what you guys think 😅 Vocals too up front? Guitars still a little loud? 🤔 (I realised this morning I should've pushed my master a bit more on my entry last night, but at least tried it on this one ... ) EDIT: Just for the fun of it, I'll include also a link to my Produce-A-Thon version from the event in April (we only got the vocal, so all chords and such everyone decided on their own) https://soundcloud.com/petterjensen/valley-of-death/s-gVAiPcWbqXD?si=14e57a24898b456aac23fe78d6ca3c34&u

I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Holiday Season before I shut it down. I'll be out of town till the 28th and won't have access to a computer so if you have something urgent, you can reach out to [email protected] ...You can send me a DM and I'll check them first chance I get ... probably not before the 28th ... but I'll get back to you as soon as possible. I sincerely wish the best for all of you and look forward to working with you in 2026 (wow ... it'll be 50 years since graduation HS ... crap, I'm old) Let's have a great break, and make the New Year the best one ever!!! See ya around the virtual campus.
