Description I took this one from the last part of the previous version. I realized that I kind of had 3 different songs in one with the last one and so I expanded on what everyone thought was the best part. I like the feel of the song and I think it's a lot more complicated then some of my older stuff.

This is really a trip back to the electronic genre for me as I've been doing more piano stuff than anything lately. The lyrics are pulled from an apple loop where someone had done an improv vox track. Let me know what you think and if it needs anything else!

Also one more thing. This was imported from GB into Logic as I started this awhile back in GB and there's a bunch of extra tracks that GB automatically puts in for you that it hides. So I don't know if the mixing/mastering will be spot on but I did my best

Comments are welcome and appreciated, enjoy!

	... Absolutely phenomenal. Absolutely. PHENOMENAL. This is my favorite song on MacJams %u2013 and you, to my ears, the most intuitive artist. But the ending was terrible. I say give it something graceful to ride out with.

	Re: Zagar Thanks for the great comments here Zagar. The ending was what I was very unsure on; I wasn't sure if I should do abruptly or if i should fade it out, etc. Any suggestions on this one? I really do appreciate your comments and I'm glad that you enjoyed this one so much. Let me know on how to improve it! Thanks again, take care!

Suggestion for the ending...
I can reflect now. When I listened to the song the first time, I think I was really caught up in the vibe and the abrupt ending kinda cut my head off, you know? But now when I listen to it again it doesn't bother me at nearly as much. I still imagine you'd want to forego that cut-off-head function, so maybe fading out would be a plan.

Then again... there are some very out-of-the-box ways to do abrupt endings that can really throw somebody for a good loop. Just kinda toss the song up with some swirly feeling and let it blow away in the wind, and leave the listener drifting there, swallowed by a spiraling field of galaxies in the center of the universe. That 's the sort of ending I could envision for this song. *shrugs*

Why's it called Goa Beach anyway? Haha.

Re: Zagar
Thanks for the comments and I'll definitely look into a way of ending that's more smooth or at least more creative of an abrupt ending.

It's Goa Beach because with the bongos it felt like a more beachier track and there's also a genre of techno called Goa. That's what I originally was striving for but I think it changed along the way and I never got around to putting together a more solid title. If you have any suggestions let me know. I'm pretty bad with title
