Original Samples

Basically everything except for the give files by snowflake and the drumloop you hear in the song.

Process

I first loaded the vocal and piano track and listened to it like 10 times. Then ideas came into my mind which I realized. Some of them I dropped but most of them I kept in the project. Slowly but surely the song got filled with more and more elements that helped it to sound the way I wanted.

Other Notes

How I felt when remixing? Amazing. I'm a mixing engineer and producer, but I don't write songs. So I'm always happy to be given an idea, a vocal recording or something else to start creating things around so that it grows and grows just like a small and young flower that grows and rises to its full beauty in the end. Sounds cheesy, I know! But that's what came to my mind first trying to describe what I'm doing.
