Tracktober 003: “Tim's Acid Spa —  Acid Rock Techno? in D Minor 122 BPM
(name after Tim, the Tracktober bat!)

Day 3 of my Tracktober challenge 🎃 — every day this month I’m writing and posting a track sketch. These are works-in-progress (WIP), not finished mixes (I only put max 2 hours into each one!) — the goal is to practice showing up daily, experiment with new ideas, and share the creative process openly instead of waiting until everything is “perfect.”

• Concept: Start with an instrumental sample and build out a track from there
• What I practiced: Playing with samples and portions to find fun sections, modulation, acid synths (Arturia Acid V), Simpler
• Imperfections: Definitely have some stray frequencies in the sample that need treatment, and I ran out of time to make the magic happen with a sufficient build. Can't wait to finish this later somehow.  
• Influences: Dr. Rubenstein! I love that you make acid so much fun.

Drop me a comment if a moment catches your ear! I’d love to hear what stands out to ya!
