Am I missing something about staying in key?
Just got some feedback from an established producer who said My breakdown was a in a different key than my drop. It threw me for a loop because I’ve been using the newest Ableton and have my key listed for all tracks and just double checked it all.
The only thing that could be throwing me off is that the root note in my breakdown is d and the rote note in my drop is c, writing in the key of dminor.
I got feedback from several other less established producers as well and no one else said they thought it was out of key.
Does that make my track sound out of key if different sections are playing off a different root note?
