I decided to go with A minor, and immediately dropped in some ROLI studio players into a few tracks, then went through and chose some instruments.  I started with the bass, in Track 1, which just does octave jumps on our chords' roots.  The basic progression is A-, A-, G, A- then D-, A-, C, and F.  There are some variations on that towards the end (in Pink and Blue), with one or two chords altered for each of the two 4 chord sections.  Track 2 wound up doubling the progression of Track 2, but, with the effects added, got bumped up a few octaves.  I also added a pretty heavy gate on Track 2, sidechained to the bass in Track 1, so it sort of glitches in and out with that rhythms of Track 1.</div>

This basically just outlines the chord progression with triads, though I did alter the first chord of each 4 chord section to have a little extra accent.  Track 4 was recorded from another ROLI synth, which provides the swells on every 1st and 3rd bar.  Finally, we have Track 5, which is sort of a melody line, and plays the line pictured to the left.  It was a plucky synth sound, but when I pumped up the sample & hold effect, I got a really glitchy weirdness.  I was going to spend more time editing it, as sometimes the release is really long, and other times, it just cuts off, but I was basically out of time at this point.  I have been using these ROLI synths a lot, so I think I'm going to try and get obsessed with something else, at least temporarily.</div>
