Band Workshop Shoegaze

In one of our band workshops, we had also worked on a song called "Don't Let Me Go" which was meant to be our original song for the Shoegaze genre. This was during a session where their was only three people so we just came up with this idea during that session. Only a piano was used for this track as I was the only instrumentalist in the session so we had to come up with the song using just the piano and I used the sustain pedal to make the chords last longer and so it also links to the genre of Shoegaze which is musical loudness and dynamics happening simultaneously using the effect of reverb. We didn't necessarily struggle with the composition of the song but since the objective of the task was to have a full song complete with a mixture of different instruments, we couldn't do this as the whole band wasn't in and we decided to just use this recording as the main idea and any development could be added in future rehearsals.
