Tea at the Witch's House
from ___ Hosted by ___
There is a story that goes along with this track, but it's mostly up to your imagination as to what's going on. If you're interested in what I had in mind... The music follows an afternoon of a young girl. Having a bad day, she decides to visit an old witch that lives in the forest. When she arrives, she sees that the witch is clearly busy with... "witchy" stuff. The young visitor can't help but be mesmerised by all the magical gizmos in the witch's house. Eventually, the witch finishes up her chores and brews some tea for the young visitor. As the sun sets, the girl realises that time has flown by, and that she must return home. She thanks the witch for being so friendly (and the tea), and makes her way back home. The end? I don't know, I'm not a writer, so make up whatever ending you like. ---- Writing and producing this took way longer than I expected. It wasn't surprising in the end- this is one of the few tracks where I had to pretend I was playing each instrument and tweak the subtleties from there (i.e. dynamics, articulation, glissandos, etc). Easily the most difficult 2 and a half minutes I've ever produced, even if it ended up being recycled tropes. In my defence, I've always admitted to not having watched any Disney movies growing up, so hopefully it doesn't resemble anything or come off as too cliche!
