"Originally released via Beijing legend Howie Lee's label Do Hits! back in 2017, Dating Sim is a track that people seem to have been connecting with the most. Originally a rough demo I recorded with Yeule, it slowly morphed into an experiment in restraint to test myself on using space in my productions. During my years spent learning how to produce I would jam as many sounds as I could into a track, suffocating the whole mix but feeling as though I didn't need to adhere to the rules of a traditional 'good mix' because I wasn't making traditional music, I didn't and still don't know what musical parameters and guidelines I should be adhering to but Dating Sim taught me that room to breathe is a good thing. A lesson learnt. Anyway, I realised it wasn't available for free download here so there you go. Accompanying the track are two other songs recorded around the same time.
life is good. hope you're doing great." - Auryn
