I took this photo in the waves of Sugar Beach, Maui 2017. Cover available on my pixabay https://pixabay.com/en/wave-maui-beach-ocean-island-2818291/

Collab is the best value of SoundCloud! Cheers

The track is in 3/4, at 134bpm. All simplified and consists even 12 bar parts, with drums and bass/pads bits somewhat evolving. You can mix and match anything into a sequence you like, or follow this structure to play/sing along. If you like, send me your new stems, I can add to the stem pack, so others can use it too. Thank YOU!
Started this track out of the blue the other day, planning on playing some Blues, but it turned into this. Then I came across this waves photo I like... So the backtrack name is combination of all those things :) 

Musically yours,

Sam Prock - Out Of Blue (Open Collab Invite)

Can a track do with only kick, snare, and a guitar?  In this new Fender Reprise played just recently, I wanted to enjoy the purity of clear tones and sonority and space in between them, hope you enjoy :)

I like the goings and would only play some Floydish and JMJ like synths far in the depth. But only to enhance the feel. Also played lots with NI Replika Reverb and Ableton Echo here. One special is classy green Tape Delay from IK Multimedia, liking the tool very much.

Sam Prock - Prockgressive (Fender Reprise)

Imaging hot summer mid-day, having a rest under a tree ... breeze calming you down ...

Musically I wanted to experiment when played this tune on iPhone the other day. Wanted to invert what we usually play as a background and bring upfront. And the other way around pads and harmony to dominate. Just like how you perceive reality when falling a sleep or having Catnap break. When loud noises do not matter and you hear more of the ambient instead. Directly uploaded from Korg Gadget app on iPhoneX. 118Bpm.

Breeze (Morning Uplift)

This is what I played on Maui. Hope it could pass along the island atmos and underwaters vibe. Did not try to replicate it though, it just came out.  100% Korg Gadget app driven by OP-Z by Teenage Engineering (no wires, midi goes over bluetooth). Unrefined, unmastered, direct upload from iPad micro-studio based on lanai somewhere on Maui. Aloha!

Just one instrument synthline I wanted to share as-is. To feed our inspiration maybe? Designing sound in one track can be lotsa fun. Bless developers moving music tech to the next level constantly!  

Long time I did not make half-a-minute synth-phonies :) so here is the new one. 18 seconds – reaching to the new heights https://soundcloud.com/samprock/sets/shorts. I value your listening time! (or you can press the l0Op button and make tunes in your head) TNX!

The whole thing is designed with one instrument, recently released Arturia’s creature called Pigments. In line with Serum and NI Massive monstas. Pigments is super fun if you know what you are doing and even more fun if you don’t. Two Wavetable and/or Analogue engines, embedded sequencer and MultiFX. Main feature is you can get everything to move on a spot. Automation of any parameter to several LFOs, Envelops, Functions etc are VISUAL. So you can see and comprehend what’s going on relatively easy. For ex., here I automate wavetable position, reverbs, filters cutoff, stereo pan and other things right in the tool.

Played it last night, having somewhat circus vibe in mind. To my surprise today I came across interesting circus story behind the Beatles song “Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!”. Is the “Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band” one of the most creative and artful albums of all times? So that explains the track name.
