    {"coolThingsLearned":"Who Loves the Sun and Here Comes the Sun would be a lovely, genre-appropriate mash-up. ","toolsUsed":"Voice, USB mic, hopes & ambitions, laptop, midi piano","happyAccidents":"Oh! I tried sectioning out my track at the very start of the process - worked great for organization.

The piano line I used to sketch out the sections became my base due to time constraints (appreciated the \\"if you're low on time you can do a one-shot in the bathroom for reverb\\" reminder. Super encouraging/motivating! ","didntWork":""}
