The Making of ‘What Could Have Been’ from Arcane | Sting ft. Ray Chen

Hope you enjoy! An inside look into the inspiration and process for writing the songs of Arcane. Through the final song in the series, “What Could Have Been”, we're hoping to bring people behind the curtain and talk about the entire experience of a single song from start to finish. From lyric inspirations, first demos, production hiccups, working with our artists Sting and Ray Chen, and developing the instrumental, this is the full story of What Could Have Been.
