RELEASE: Ño

TECHNO

Here's my first finished techno release. I had to go through more tutorials on mixing and mastering to get it to production to level.

The feeling of the theme is a mix of light and heavy. With notes of frustration and anger but with a positive outlook as I got sick in a moment of high drive for singing.

No, I can't sing today, no.

For the title I was reluctant whether to name it "can't today", as the project file was originally labeled, or "ño" as I got the feeling later in the production process after the vocals were integrated, (open question: does it count as "lyrics"?).

It stayed as "ño" also as a little self mockery, or autobullying, given that it is an expression used to mimic little kids specially during a tantrum.
