Sadness In Madness

Last year, I tried to make daily loops. I picked a random sample or synth preset and went with it, even if it was my library's worst sample or preset.
about a year ago I created a short loop called "Taking a break" with this approach.
You can check out the original one here: https://soundcloud.com/as_yoesual/2023-june-20-takingbreaks

This loop has been stuck in my mind from time to time,
untz untz untz untz.
And I wanted to see what I could do with it.
untz untz untz untz.
It had a fun gimmick, and it was certainly entertaining,
untz untz untz untz.
so why the hell not?
untz untz.... I think you get the point.

I merged some synth and samples for a new kick, replaced the other samples, and redid the synth I had for the melody to allow for more control and just had fun with it.
And with that, I'm "Retaking the Break"

Retaking The Break

I had this weird idea: I wanted to clamp all the sounds at around 512 Hz.
One sound would eventually find a way to ignore the low-pass filter and sing away.
It came out rather well, but I'd like to revisit it at some point with something more playful.

I tried to keep all the low-frequency sounds from blending too much, but, well, *shrug*. I'll put in some additional effort if I re-attempt a track like this.

Regardless, I had fun.

UnClamped

Weekly Beats 2024 - Week 12. I... I Love you... I knew I wanted to do something with a weird beat and pick a random sample from the 70k-ish samples I have collected by now. It ended up being an odd rattle. Also felt it needed a vocal and remembered I used an "I Love You" sample a while back.  Queue a lot of lfo's and pads, which turned into this.

What I wrote at the time:
Finally had some more time to put additional effort into this week's track.

I hope you are all doing okay; keep it up!
We are almost past the half-year mark!

Robot Rave

Techno Improv Set (2024-12-10)

First track of 2025.
I love it when I am in the flow, everything just fell in place without much effort.
Having said that, I set up the main melody synth in such a way that it heavily relied on randomization, so I had to bake down 10 different versions of it, and picked the "right" one for each time it played. That probably took as much time as the rest of the track combined.

I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did creating it.

Distortion. Acid. Loud. That’s what you want—no, what you need—when the rave’s about to end. Relentlessly fast, unfiltered pounding and chest-pumping energy make it clear: you don’t want this night to end. Keep it going, over and over, and over—endlessly, forever. Fwd:pHlux.
