I mentioned this last week, but I was suffering from remixer's block, and decided to try and avoid it by buckling down and making THIS song. The problem with that was that Ori's soundtrack is magnificent in every way, and the composer is a BEAST. Doing it by the end of last week would have been painful. So while King of Cards made me delay my plans by a week, it did give me room for comfort, because hoo boy did I need it.
The OTHER problem with this track was that there's no sheet music that I've seen for it, meaning part of it had to be done by ear. That, and a particular section was nothing but tense, frantic strings in the same semitone range (E to A), which, combined with how I usually make music and my instrument setup, proved to be obnoxious, so I tried using a pluck instrument. No idea if it's the best thing I could've done, but nothing else I threw at it worked, and dammit I was NOT gonna delay this another week.
Also apparently I forgot to add in the percussion until the day of uploading this (Friday), so they're mostly a last-minute addition! Whoops!
