Wow yeah it’s cool to hear the way you harmonized this progression leaning into the dissonance of those tritones on what would’ve otherwise been a more soothing lo-fi track. It feels like an alternate dimension where everything is darker than it normally would be.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Yeah I was trying to convey that dreading sense of unease lurking underneath, something I've been feeling over the past few years lol - sort of like how things on the surface (personally speaking) seem okay, but underneath there's something a little "off" that you can't quite put your finger on, like that creeping sense of dread before a big scare in a horror movie (but the scare not coming, so it's just low-key dread)

The use of tritones seemed to just work (at least for me) to convey that

Thanks for listening!
