Kind of experimental and washed out. Featuring vocals from https://mvnners.bandcamp.com/album/mvnners-sample-pack and a bunch of random textures.
ableton really didn't want me to participate in CBAT week

Like a lover's caress, before oblivion takes it and becomes less than a memory.
Didn't have a ton of time, started super late. It's from an unfinished WIP from a long while back. Spruced it up a lot and gave it some character.
I don't know, but maybe it was something like this.
I did not actually sing this all live, I did takes and stuff and wrote a song in a DAW but much good it did me right
Gentle whispers entice me near
Voice, it is familiar
I’ve known it for so long
I’ve known it for so long
Tell me stories that I hold dear
Flatter me with exotic dreams
But I turn and no one’s there
I turn and no one’s there.
Don’t tell me
That you can’t hear it too?
It’s right next to me
Why can’t you see?
The voice, it calls out to me
When I turn, no one is there
Close my eyes and listen
The familiar voice remains
A padded room awaits
idk if this semi related to the theme.
Couple loops in here, some dBlue Glitch, some chippy stuff, definitely facilitated by unoriginality. Did have to change the pitch of some of the loop sections though. Had fun though.
These sheets are no use
Silky textures a waste
Time tatters the fabics
and birds use it for their nests
It’s just threads and string
It’s just threads and string
It’s just threads and string
This was fun. Tried to keep things simple and focus on layering sounds, some which I think worked and some not so much.
It's late at night, and your work shift has finished. You are tired, it's time for a wonderful night's sleep. You rest your weary head on the nice pillow, hand-crafted from lush satin and silk, and drift off in a nice deep sleep. The sounds of simplicity sooth your ear, as you make your journey to the morning of the next day....
I made a drone thing, because i wanted to see how far i can go, without it being a simple loop. It's literally a F Sharp Major 7th chord throughout. No other chords, nothing. Just that. The rest is built on lots of solos, and a middle part with a more expansive sonic scape, a drum like solo, and a choir which fades throughout the piece.
Nothing can more mesmerising than nice silk resting against your face, and a single chord turned into a unique psychedelic piece. All in all, enjoy!
tfw u give ur staff an ultimatum and 75% of them take it
the pizza rolls will be right out
