Sketched this track on the fantastic OP-1 and then recorded it all live into ableton for editing and effects. All tracks with exception to the dialogue samples were played and created on the OP-1. Pleased with how this one turned out. Let me know what you think and leave a like and comment!

D'OH P-1

These tracks are acoustic covers performed by Nick Grekowicz on vocals and guitar. They were recorded and mastered by me (Mat Piotrowski). 

The tracks are:
Back 2 Good by Matchbox Twenty
Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley
House of the Rising Sun by Animals
If You Only Knew by Shinedown
It's Been Awhile by Staind
The Judge by Twenty One Pilots

This was an impromptu recording session and the vocals were recorded with an Aston Origin condenser microphone. Nick's acoustic guitar was plugged directly into a Presonus Audiobox pre-amp, and all of the tracks were recorded in mono 48k 24 bit, into an adobe audition multi-track session.

Several of the songs have a Raw version which contains the recording without any mastering or editing to give a before and after representation of the song.

Back 2 Good Raw

Made this track today start to finish. Goal was to focus on creating a sense of motion through automation. (crescendos and panning primarily) Please let me know what you think of the track. drop an like and a comment!

These Jazzy Nights

First track made on the OP-1 after playing around and learning how to use it for a few weeks. Can't wait to work more with the delightful little device and see what kind of tasty jams we can create. Let me know what you think in the comments. Please like and share

Gather The Stars

Here's a spooky track I made for Halloween! I usually go for a hip hop vibe but branched out of my comfort zone with this one. Please let me know what you think. I have started streaming while I compose so other folks can listen in, participate, and hang out. Please feel free to stop by. I will be adding a schedule to the stream page soon! https://www.twitch.tv/magesmakesmusic

Generations

A bit of a random track I came up with while learning to use the push 2. decided to roll with it and practice my sample slicing in the process. after some work this is the current version. May make some tweaks between now and when I make the video I have planned for my youtube channel.

Moon Child

Started as a track just slamming loops and samples together to try and make a bunch of tracks fast. Ended up spending way more time on this than the initial project plan but please with how it turned out none the less. Be Positive, Practice, Learn, and Grow my Friends.

Pluggin Away

Triphop Song composed using the ZODIAC Beta pack from CYMATICS. This was my first time sampling from a full track of individual stems. It has been a fun and interesting composing experience and the ZODIAC pack has some really excellent materials to work with. I am quite proud of this one, it was a big leap forward for me in a lot of new areas, it has opened my eyes to some new creative outlets I hadn't been aware of before that I look forward to exploring
