Here's my entry for the #smlchallenge . I started this one out with a simple chord progression and built the melodies around that. I used drum samples and arrange them into a pattern I liked on the timeline rather than using a sequencer.
I thought the track needed a little more something to it once I got the main melodies and everything together so I added some vocal loops that I thought flowed well with the beat.
The software used to make this was Logic Pro X and some of the plugins I used were NI's Massive and Izotope's Ozone for the mastering.
Hope you like it. Thanks for listening.
