Another WIP, using... the tin whistle! Another collage-y one (started in 2024), with a big Sludge Section. I got stuck with this one around the heavy section with the baritone guitar, and wasn't entirely happy with the length (the crescendo it feels too short) and the guitar tone used (I have a better amp now). However I think it is salvageable - I just need to take a break from the song a bit. Also features - the gore machine, hydrasynth, piano and junk percussion. No vocals yet, as usual (minus choirs) - but was thinking shoegaze ones and some spoken word. However I think the vibe is interesting - mixing both lofi and hifi styles in a way that seems both futuristic and old at the same time.
I strongly recommend this approacjh to other ADHD'ers who struggle to finish songs- work on the thing you have dopamine, and when the dopamine runs out (i.e. you get bored/stuck) - take an extended break from the song and let yourself "forget" it to a certain degree. Thus when you are bored and wanting to work music again, you finish it as it seems "new" due to the fact you forgot about it, thus giving you the executive function to finish it. All of my finished work uses this method. Yes, you get a LOT of unfinished things floating around - so back up your storage! Since some of you have stated you like the WIPs, this is also good as I have a LOT WIPs than finished songs, and getting encouragement helps me find the energy to finish it - and lack of tells me to direct my energies elsewhere. I have a LOT more WIPs to show you. Fatigue + ADHD often = a lot of unfinished work done in the "boom" periods, with work stopping on the song when I get tired. But it does allow me to try lots of ideas rather than commit to a single one.
If you think it's worth finishing off, let me know.
