yum yum circuits

I'm in sore need of some arrangement practice. Does someone have any good resources or advice? I get lost in the soundscape weeds and want to focus on creating a journey in the hour time limit.

uh had too much fun playing with my new synth and not enough fun writing music 😂

Song builds to nothing sorry lol. At least the synths are fun?

it's more of a vibe than a song

selling spider silk 10 dollar/kg OBO

😂 damn this one was a depressing one to comeback to. Haven't done this in a long time--glad to be back, but sad he's on his back

Short but sweet.

I'm finally in a position to start doing these again!

missed the last few weeks. getting back into the swing of things. had to force an arrangement with the patterns that I had at the end 😂

something's up

I got lost in sound design. I really enjoy my piano/bell sound. Problem is the the octave I play it at clashes with some of the other instrumentation and and everything's reverbed to hell (intentionally, yeah ambience!) so it sounds really muddy. The solutions I could come up with was change the instrumentation so that it gave the piano space to breath, bring down the ambient pad to clash less, increase the relative volume (raise piano, lower everything else), and/or eq the surrounding frequencies on other instruments to carve out the space for the piano. If anyone has any thoughts, please get ahold of me on discord or on the vote. Thank youuuu!

was late to compo only had 30 minutes. Waaaaay short, way underpolished.

wish it were summer

really wanted to change the melody but I wanted to add a chorus, then ran out of time and did neither.

instrumentation was fun to play with tho :)

Opted to stretch for two verses and a bridge instead of just one.  Had to skip mixing/mastering to do it.  Would like to add an part to the second first so it's dynamic but time limit and all.

not happy with this, but uploading consistently is more important than my discomfort.  So I'm firing and forgetting this one.

wasn't great but wasn't bad

 

I want to change the sync synth and it's melody but sacrifices must be made for an hour time limit

 

 

I got Kontakt for Christmas, so enjoy ya some sampled strings!

Writer's block this week .-.

 

But consistency is key, so here's something half-baked. :)

Good morning!

 

Plenty of time to master your tracks later :^)

i've been playing cyberpunk.

 

didn't have time to fix the volume levels Ż\_(ツ)_/Ż

this is a submission

this turned out ehhhhhhhhh but w/e it happens.

 

the initial idea was to make something similar to the mass effect galaxy theme, but with a complex time signature to highlight how space is cold and inhospitable buuuuut it didn't work out.  Complex time signatures don't lend themselves to short time constraints. :^)

 

So here's a weird-ass space synth accompanied by moar space synths

 

The best thing about jazz is that weird notes are part of the jazz :^) (and not just a result of my first time writing something jazz-y)

now grab a drink, close your eyes, and listen to the water

it's the end credits of something.  I didn't have enough time to explore more than one melodic idea because I really wanted to polish this one.  Consequently, this gets cut off waaaay before I can do anything with it. :(

 

That's ok though.  I feel pretty good about where this piece could go if I had more than an hour, so educational goal accomplished :)
