Thank you so much!
With the theming, I knew before the jam started that I was gonna try to play the theme as straight as possible because of how I would bend it in the last. I usually had that same thought too. That it wouldn’t be memorable if I did the obvious theme, but every jam, more people than I expect bend the theme to fit their story. That’s why I was ok with a super obvious fitting of the theme because I knew not every person would do that I’m like I expected in previous jams.
Plus, I wanted to make it memorable despite fitting the theme as best I could. Gave me a challenge to differentiate myself through instrumentation and composition.
