Sound Legion - Strain [Elpi5 Remix]

---

The 'Strain' Remix is finally here! I have to say, honestly, I am on cloud nine right now for so many reasons. But let me stay on track, first things' first -

You can do yourself a solid and check out the amazing (and apparently, remix-inspiring) original track by @soundlegion and @qrittix here: dsound.audio/#/@soundlegion/sound-legion-strain-qrittix-bonnie-legion

Firstly, I bounced this mix down and upon listening to it, I think it's probably one of my best dubstep tracks to date. It was so much fun making this remix, I can't even tell you. Just for fun, I made a GIF of the project file just so you guys can see what a BEAST this thing is. Note: You may have to check back to Steemit to actually view it if you are viewing on DSound.

It seems that historically speaking, when Bonnie zigs, I zag. 😆 The remix I had done of her song, 'Karma', put a much lighter spin on a darker message (at least that is how I interpreted it). This time around, I put a much heavier spin on a light one. But even the artwork that went with this track told me to go kind of dark with it. All the same though, even through the growls and wubs, the words fly high above carrying the uplifting message. I love the lyrics of this tune - it gives me hope that we all have someone that will fight the good fight with us.

I'm honored that it was such phenomenal Steemians, @soundlegion and @qrittix, that I was able to work with (after the fact, in remix form, that is lol). I'm so thankful for the fact that I crossed paths with these extremely talented individuals by some lucky chance.

Secondly, aside from the remix itself, this post just seemed to line up with a good handful of benchmarks for me on Steemit. I'm a couple followers short of 500 (which I hope this remix will push me past!), and I believe I just passed 150 posts including blog entries, songs, and videos. As I'm writing this, I'm reflecting on the phenomenal year I've had here, all the people I've met, the people I've helped, and the people who have helped me, and I feel very much like I belong here. That, in and of itself, really means more than I can say.

So to Bonnie Legion and Qrittix, to Dsound for the amazing platform and consistent support, and to everyone who checks in to listen to my tunes - THANK YOU!

I came up with a cool idea to give back to the community for all of these things. I won't spoil the surprise, but I'll keep you guys posted on my 500 follower gift idea. Stay tuned! 🤘

Thank you again all, much love.
