This is the first video of my dual sketches series. For those who are new, I'm a musician mainly interested in Ambient and Progressive Rock genres. I'm creating one sketch series for each genre. This is mainly to help me write more songs in those genres and share more music with you on Youtube :)

Also, in the two Sketches series, I will be focusing much more on the audio and the music. So I might not show every instrument on screen or everything I programmed in the song. One, two, maybe three different shots, that's it. That allows me to save a lot more time that was dedicated to editing that I can invest in making more music. My Instrumental Song series, from now on, will be exclusively for big, completely arranged and orchestrated, studio-worthy songs. My shorter ideas or simple looping sounds will now be in the Ambient Sketch series. 

In this song, I'm creating drones with the Strymon BigSky, laying down some chords with my good ol' Alicia's Keys plug-in and trying some electronic drums on top of that ! Enjoy :)
