Stress and Frustration

by Nick Bates

/

about

I have been sitting on this one for a long time. I had originally completed the first full composition and first mix way back in December of 2021. Over the next year I would create at least four more different versions, and it still wasn't right. But I sat on it, tweaked and tweaked it and it eventually grew into what it is now, a piece of music that I am proud to be putting out.

The track's name is definitely a reflection of its creation.

This track is the culmination of all of the stress, frustration (oh ha ha), writer's block, even burnout that I think I've been going through the past year. Use creative muscles enough and they are bound to be worn out afterwards. I think I've bounced back. Maybe.

There's more on the way, so much more on the way, but it'll be slow moving, and hopefully a return to form. That's what I want more than anything.

As always, enjoy.
