Last night I wrote this song. I don't have any recording gear with me right now so I had to just use my computer's mic and a cheap drum machine.
I have about 2,963 tunes I could present this way. Maybe 2824 ... I dunno, I've written quite a few tunes -- hard to count.
I encourage the creativity ... and also administrative discretion.
This is hard ... I've been here in my past ... but I'm going to soapbox for a brief moment ... please pardon me accordingly.
If I posted every creative moment that occurred to me, well, I'd swamp a critical listening board in a heartbeat. Every "what do ya think of this idea?" would bury other well intentioned posts into a haystack of quick sketches searching through for the needle of ... call it, "serious" application of the recording craft.
Your intuition was right. This was better suited for the "songwriting" threads ... as it's an undeveloped idea, not a developed production meriting mix comments.
I've not interest nor intention of spanking any idea in any way, shape or form ... for I've no investment nor motivation in doing so. But ... as an outside observational comment on keeping clean, well directed threads in proper place on a board ...
I'd have moved this out of this particular subject area quickly - and into a more appropriate forum, like the songwriting section -- where ideas are discussed, not critical sonic listening.
The tune itself ... btw ... has a really good germ of an idea to begin with. Yet, it's SOOOO far to go, it's not really "in production" with any sort of clear definition ... so it really doesn't belong in this particular section for analysis. Not your fault ... btw ...
Hence, my point.
I couldn't offer a single sonic suggestion on this ... because ...

There will be folks that in essence ask, "You new around here?". They'll also know exactly what I mean ...
Best (really),
