Coaching notes
- Maintain the surgical EQ precision shown in the first 10 minutes.
- Use the melodic breaks to create more dramatic tension/release cycles.
- Experiment with subtle vocal snippets to add a human element to the machine-like groove.
- Experiment with brief moments of silence or extreme filtering to create more dramatic tension/release.
- Introduce a non-minimal element (e.g., a vocal snippet or organic instrument) to provide a focal point.
- Slightly vary the transition lengths to keep the listener guessing.
