Drum pattern variation
first 8 bars acoustic drums, then from bar 17 it transitions to electronic drums which also acts as a bass sound.

I've used the 'Tempo sets' tool to decrease the tempo of the track to 105 BPM, this techniques helps the listener to identify the ending of the beat/song.

I've used the 'Transpose' tool to change some instruments such as the synths and vibraphone to a one octave up, creating an interesting variation the melody

'Solo Tool' and using the same drum pattern for the bassline

Solo Tool:
1. I've used the 'Solo' tool to work on one track at a time, it allowed me to work with the track better by listening to the sound of each instrument and determining which one fits the most.
Bassline:
2. I've used the same drum pattern for the bassline, this combined them together which created a solid texture for the track.

I've used the volume automation tool to vary and balance of the instruments, this ensures that all tracks are in place and neither of them are too loud or quite. Using this technique there is a variation i the dynamics of the instruments which contributes to a well-established song/beat.

I've used 19 tracks to make my beat, a combination of acoustic and synth instruments. On the other hand, I've used 'Panning' on some of the tracks; the guitar and 'breathy vox' layer are panned right side whereas other instruments are panned on the left side; excluding the drums which are in the centre.
The panning tool helps to settle and balance the dynamics of specific tracks in my song making it audible and pleasurable for the listener to hear.

This is how I've added a software instrument to my Logic project.

I've used the 'loop' tool to repeat a track for a longer time. I've used this tool to work on specific parts of the song such as 8-bars. This helped me to structure and modify some parts of the song. This technique is efficient as it increased productivity and accuracy, by this I mean that I've worked on each part of the track individually to modify some parts that weren't good. Productivity: it helped to one part at a time rather than going back to the beginning of the song which would be a waste of time.

My first dance-pop track influenced by the 90s synth pop with an acoustic twist.

# data[].attributes.body
In the begining the tempo of my track was 105 BPM- 128 BPM which is appropiate for a dance-pop track, but, as i've experiment with different sounds and changed the layout of the song, it was time for the tempo to be changed to 130 BPM (Andante). This tempo matches the track's atmosphere and rhythm perfectly for an EDM/Dance-Pop track.

1. These were the only instruments that I've had at the beginning, the drum pattern was basic it didn't have any variation as it has now. My track was 12 bars long and did not have a structure as it has now: intro, Part A, breakdown and Part B.
I've added a synth instrument 'Wave Patterns' from which I got to develop my ideas further in melody and texture.

1.  The first step of my track was choosing the right chords to play on the keyboard. I've used a MIDI keyboard to play these chords, but also used the 'Step Time Input'  toolto write in notes using the 'Pencil' tool and to adjust their velocity and length. Moreover, I've used the 'Step time input' to write melodies and basslines and aligned them in time using the 'Time Quantize' tool; these techniques helped me to easily compose music effectively and in a structured manner.

2. My track is made using four-chords, CFGD, in the key of C major with time signature 4/4.
As a beginner who never played piano before, I've decided to compose in the key C Major as it is the easiest and most common key used in Pop music.
