I tried a different workflow for making this than usual, starting with Koala Sampler (cause I really want an SP404 but am not sure how much I'll use it) and transitioning into Logic for the full arranging. 
I like how it turned out, at least it gave me an idea for more stuff to do. 

I can't wait until I'm out of school and can spend more time working with music, this master's is kickin my butt.

Phoenix Shuffle

Not sure what I wanted to do, but I wanted to make something from scratch since I wasn't in the mood to sample. Sounded pretty nifty! Nothing special, but had a lot of fun with it.

Sp00ky

Those keys just were too much fun to mess with. Only chopped it up at one spot, as I felt that the keys themselves had a good sound just as a processed loop.

Beside Myself

I pounded an energy drink and then thought to myself, "I wanna chop up something well-known instead of a weird vinyl for once, and do it as fast as I can."

Really was rough to mix for some reason though, probably because I was adamant about getting an 808 in there somewhere.

Bugle Bap

Never tried sampling a piece with such long releases and very few notes, but I really like how it came out. I tried mixing it a little differently process-wise, and I feel like it's a little more rounded-out than the last few. I like it though, it was pretty fun!

Release

Tried somethin a little new in terms of mixing as well as sampling, and played around with some vinyl scratch sounds. Had a lot of fun with this one!

Oohh

I feel like this track is one complete thought, and I'm happy with where it ended! Didn't do anything specifically fancy or new, just played around with instruments a little more to complement the main sample, used a different type of bass line, but I definitely enjoyed making it! 

After I pitched the sample down it definitely gave off some serious vibes that it belongs in the underwater level of a video game.

Submerged

Man I don't even got a clever title for this song, I just was vibing while making it.

Vibe Check Idk

I loved that piano sample I used a longer time ago, but wanted to reuse it now that I can mix it to at least not be one jumbled, muffled mess. Just enjoyed trying to use it again and chop it differently!

Sleep Paralysis [Revised]

I recently wanted to try making stuff differently, and this is the product of that. I tried chopping up stuff a little different, trying to simplify the product because I feel like I overcomplicate stuff a lot. I had a lot of fun with this, sounds a little more different than things I'd usually do so I'm pretty happy with it. 

I also have been inspired to buy an SP404SX on the quest to learn other workflows and force myself outside a normal comfort zone, so we'll see how that goes once I'm able to order one!

Wandering

I don’t know what I’m doin, but in order to make great stuff you gotta make some wack stuff first, so this is where I post the stuff I feel is less wack.
