Good evening,

Here's what I've been working on for the last week:

The Fear - Ben Howard (Ambient Electro Cover)

I don't think I've spent any free time doing anything but this, honestly. It's been painful at times, and very tedious getting very small things to work, but I've reached a point where I'm happy enough to say it's finished. Sometimes it's best not to overwork something, I think.

Let me know what you think :)

Believe me when I say, I know that feeling, when making music.

Yep. In the case of music, sometimes it is better to take things lightly.
Overworking sometimes gets me no where. :P

Thank you :D yeah, I think it's easier to tell when something's wrong but you can't quite work out what. Every time I played it back I found something else not quite right haha.
After you've listened to it 1000 times it's difficult to tell whether it's even good any more :P

Cheers! It's not easy to get it to sound clean and professional, particularly the percussion.. I'm not as good as I'd like to be but practice makes perfect eh. :)
