Couldn't help myself, had to add something more to the track other than only drums lmao

STS349Sushi - Empty Beat

Dry Session Kit, Ambient Swells, Glue Compressor. A foray into time signatures, layering some 4:4 over some possible 7. I have enjoyed the asymmetrical Aksak rhythms of the Balkans, and used them much more as inspiration than recipe here, as I don’t know them well. The melodic notes were added to allow for more interesting looping of the drums. (The drums are the circle, the swells are the birds.)

I had the idea to have each section have a different genre and feel but still come together to make the same loop sound different in its own way. Originally made without the background loop but felt the project needed something to top it off.
