This one came really easy. I think it reads mostly okay. Some parts could be tighter but otherwise it’s not a bad run. I think that may be due to just sticking to description and not trying to veer away from that, or thinking that I should.

I hope you enjoy.

Guitar wafts in on a relaxed tune and soon finds itself joined by one that twinkles, as well as very light percussion. That percussion soon changes shape as bass moves alongside its newly-spaced beat.
A moment of quiet as the sounds look at the space they have and look inward. It’s fragile almost. Tender.
Soon a return to an idea of the main melody. Here bass draws slow and quiet, and percussion keeps a low distance until it suddenly comes into prominence. The sounds remain gentle but there’s a liveliness coming in. Soon that changes as the notes mute as they play on. Strikes here and there and sounds rise and let loose in a controlled way.
The melody rises as sounds expand outward whilst keeping a sense of focus and direction. There’s a comfort in the familiar, and an appreciating beauty as guitar rings out alongside steady, striking percussion and firm bass.
Suddenly the guitar becomes even more wild and a bit of melancholy finds itself apparent. From the noise rises a bit more control as the guitar rises and wails and squeals before returning back to the other instruments. Here it’s almost a sense of the fantastic and majestic coming through; sounds of returning, perhaps as everything drives on before slowing.
Almost a pause in space and time before the instruments strike out and let themselves flow loose as the song ends.
