Havin' a goof, trying to get the classic HM2 buzzsaw tone.

Buckle

First attempt at a song made entirely of computey doots.

Superconductor

Grist

Tried to make a house track, but the house was haunted.

Gnaw

Narcolept

Goals:
• Snarly midrange bass
• Synth drums instead of samples
• Vaguely creepy atmosphere

Result:
• Happy with bass sound and presence
• Forgot to actually make it a song ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Goals:
• DOOM-esque super compressed distortion.
• Retain clarity despite waveshapers stacked to the moon.

Result:
• Forgot to make it a song again. Basically a tech demo featuring a blown out kick.
• Kick turned out pretty well though?
• Could be clearer, but it's also not a complete mess, probably.

Goals:
• Try making an NES tune with Famitracker. Been playing a bunch of retro games with incredible soundtracks and I am easily influenced.

Result:
• Famitracker's UX is not great, so I ran out of steam on this one. But it kinda sounds like a thing that could maybe go in a B-tier indie retro game. And apparently it could play on actual NES hardware, so that's neat?

Goals:
• "Mom, can we have Tim Hecker?"

Result:
• "No, we have Tim Hecker at home."
• This one got away from me, somehow having both too much and not enough. Also it sounds nothing like the goal, but I still kind of like it?

W2024-02-25

Goals:
• Do a Devin Townsend.

Result:
• This thing was written, recorded, and mixed in a total of maybe 2-3 hours, so it is what it is. And what it is, is buttcheeks.
