Skyshard - Rainbow Legacy [NEW ALBUM OUT!]

I told ya not to drink da rainbow :/
Its been a long time since my last album, Tiny Sky. Over a year in fact.
So its time to tell one more story. One last story in fact.
This year has been difficult in terms of finding time for myself. It all went way too fast, and besides doing many things, I didn't get to do anything of what I had planned for myself.
My mental health has been going down as well as I realized that I'm doing anything on the fandom side except the things I was meant to do in the first place.
I kinda lost my way of doing things, and I think its time for a break from everything.
Starting the next year I'll be mainly focused on the story projects I was supposed to do a long time ago, so to finish this year, I'm giving you one last story featuring the canon-friendly Sky; Rainbow Legacy.
This album is like a big "screw you" to the industry, generic music in general, and anything related to whatever music has become this days.
Kids today can't handle anything which has over 2 chords and is not bouncy enough. Back in my day music was an artistic expression, not an experience, like it is today.
So I'm giving you my weirdest shot at music with this. The literal "I do whatever I want". The "Skyshard Experience".
My 5th studio album.
Its going to be generic, but not generic at the same time. It will have amen breaks all over the place, but its not D&B. I think the best way to tag this album (besides Pilkstep) is symphonic pop. Probably.
The story itself will take us all the way into the dystopian future of MLP G5.
After a thousand (maybe) years, ponies have discovered the abandoned crashed remains of whatever was left of Cloudsdale and its weather facilities.
Surprisingly, the artificial rainbow generators are still working, and who would have thought that seasoned rainbows would have a funny effect on pegasi.
Liquid rainbows age well, like a good wine. They might make you see things. Feel things. Hear things.
Prepare to get high (in the clouds).
Honestly liquid rainbows were one of my favorite LORE things from G4, and its a shame that they kinda got forgotten in G5. So far at least.
Anyway, more story later. Today I present you my first single of the album which carries the album name. Rainbow Legacy.
As most songs from this album, this one was started eons ago. In fact, this album was supposed to come out before Tiny Sky, but I never could finish it.
As in the whole picture, you can think of it as Cloud Seeker 2. Officially.
In fact, this album will have more of Cloud Seeker than you think ;)
So ye, enjoy whatever this genre of music is, and stay tuned for the release day!
P.S. It took me around 15ML of CBD to finish this album, so yes, I was kinda in the clouds while working on it.

As I was listening this piece first, it gave me a strange feeling that there's something huge it misses. I couldn't tell what it was until I read your description about the "cord limitation".
I wouldn't have figured it out on my own, and it shocks me how BIG the, limit of 2 cords, effect it means on the result!
HUGE! It is very huge! This piece doesn't "sparkle" as the rest of your music "artwork".
I mean this one is nice, but... "generic" just as you said.
It is definitely an interesting experience to hear your style, but without your "magic ingredient" in it.
🙂👍

This one actually has over 8 different chords ;)
