Yesterday I bought a very lovely sample set from Soniccouture called [The Skiddaw Stones](http://www.soniccouture.com/en/products/p4-the-skiddaw-stones/).
Using the microKORG, GarageBand drum kits, and a cheap acoustic guitar. Beware, it is far from done. The final version will likely be longer and less repetitive (if possible).

Sometimes we stay in a relationship because we grow comfortable, and we're scared to leave. The fear of being alone fuels us to settle for the wrong one. This song is my reflection of one situation that I was in. "Let Her Go"
