'Nova Loop' - New Original Music/More Experimentation with Spitfire Audio VSTs! Electronic/Ambient/Instrumental + Walkthrough!

Here's another tune from

last night using the new VSTs I downloaded from Spitfire Audio. The ambient/spacey sounds included are so awesome, they have a number of synth pads and effected strings that I used here. I think for super ambient soundscapey sort of stuff these are going to be really useful. Let's go through the tune!

Listen to Nova Loop here.

We are at 95 BPM here,

and the changes in harmonies/chords happen every 4 bars, so things move pretty slowly. Track 1 is where I began, with a C for 8 bars, then a Dmin for 8 bars, then repeat. However, as the layers begin to build up, the C becomes Cmaj7, while the Dmin gets an F and a C added to it, so it feels like an F6 or Dmin7. On the last time around, there is a Bb that shows up in 2 tracks over the Dmin7, which adds a really cool dissonance that still flows back nicely into the Cmaj7, as the Bb rises up to the high B.
