Genesis In The Making - Update 1

So, after some brainstorming and throwing some ideas into Ableton (the software that we use), we finally came up with the foundations for the new track. As this will be our first track made together under the name "TP7", we thought it fit to find a suitable start point... And what better place to start than Genesis. Genesis speaks about the beginning of time, when God created the Earth, and the things on it. We wanted to keep the song uplifting and make the lead synths strong and prominent in the track, in order to give it the new life feel.

We started off writing a chord sequence, with some odd chord progressions in an attempt to stray from the generic chords. It can be easy writing simple chords that follow a normal, predictable pattern, but its nice to try and challenge yourself in making something different.

We decided on the first style being Drum and Bass because, for me at least, it's the genre I felt most at home making. The first album that I ever owned at the age of 11 was Pendulum - Hold Your Colour, so I felt completely in my zone when we started making it, and Tristan is a big fan of Drum and Bass too so it was good starting ground for us.
