Yes On One And No On Two

This is my entry for the Beat Collective Challenge for 16th Feb 2025 in which participants are given three samples and the challenge id to incrporate those samples into a new piece of music, any genre.

This time the samples are from Senor Picante and comprise:-

Sample 1 - Synth Pad
Sample 2 - Glitchy Drums
Sample 3 - Rolling Snares

I incorporated all three samples in the two breakdowns and in addition I sliced the Rolling Snares to midi and made separate hits from them which I used as fills at various points un the track.e.g 1:20 & 2:50.  I wanted to do a lot more with them and create fill patterns and extra percussion from the Glitchy Drums too but I haven't had time. I also used the Synth Pad as an added ambience sound which plays throughout the track. (edited)

Snake Bite

This is my entry for the Beat Collective Challenge for May 2025 in which participants are given some samples and asked to incorporate them into an original track.

This month's samples are from the Ableton May newsletter's featured artist quickly, quickly and are called entertheroom, loopme & urfreakingmeout

entertheroom I used the first part of the sample as a riser at various places in the track.
loopme I converted the melody to a new midi then used that melody with a Serum patch to create one of the lead instruments
urfreakingmeout I used in both breakdowns as a drone sound and also at the end of musical phrases.

Passion



This is my entry for the Beat Collective Challenge of 29-06-2025 in which we are given two samples and invite to incorporate them into an original track.

This month the samples are :-
Sample 1 - Guitar chords in G minor
Sample 2 - Lofi Rhodes piano in G minor (or B flat major)

I used sample 1 as a rhythmic element throughout the track, pitching it down two semi-tones.

I put sample 2 into Ableton's Simpler and played a melody with it, then created two additional melodies for the breakdown. and the second half of the track.
