We Are The Music Makers

Let us share in our mp3s and oggs. People are still doing music, right? I've known three other people personally who were making music in high school, now they're all fallen off. I was like that for the last year, but have overcome the musical block finally. Whipped this up in three days, but I'm stuck here for a week now because I don't know where to take it, or if I should take it much further than this What have you been doing lain? What questions do you have?

>>12188 This is a little "remix" i did for a friend of mine. (Although i almost didn't use the stems she gave me and decided to do something completely different.) Also, listened to your song lain, it's really interesting. What daw did you use to make it? If you used one of course.

>>12190 It's my first song in milkytracker. I used to do Famitracker/Goattracker music in my early teens, I thought going back to the form could get me out of my slump. But I have to learn all these effect commands Your track is sick by the way! I guess it's a remix of your friends song?

>>12192 >It's my first song in milkytracker. I used to do Famitracker/Goattracker music in my early teens, I thought going back to the form could get me out of my slump. But I have to learn all these effect commands I get you lain. I've used trackers for quite some time (specially schismtracker, which is my favorite) and asides from the most basic ones, i haven't learned the commands. I always end up going to the help page. Wasn't alive when trackers where used extensively to do games soundtrack and electronic music, but even to this day, most of them seem really easy to use after some hours put on them, and after some weeks, the songs one makes get to be nice. Although for me, it took some months. >Your track is sick by the way! I guess it's a remix of your friends song? Thank you lain; yes, it is a remix. Im very slow when it comes to doing music, so i took quite some time to finish the track,even if there was some pressure from my friend end, (with good reason)

>>12188 OP here So I've shown this track to a few people while trying to figure out how to take it further, and from two people with a 'classical' musical background, said the bassline in the last half sounds dissonant. I also have a 'classical' music background; I did this on purpose. I feel like they are just poorly applying their rigid teachings. But on the other hand, I might not be hearing something, I wouldn't be surprised if I've damaged my hearing. What do you think lain? Are they misunderstanding my track, or are they right? Also no further progress to show. I've had about five different ideas to take it further but haven't been happy with any of them. I've also been quite busy lately, end of semester.

>>12188 >>12241 Nice to hear from you again OP. I listened to your song so i could refresh my memory and i don't really think that the bass is wrong. Same thing goes with the other elements of the composition. >Also no further progress to show. I've had about five different ideas to take it further but haven't been happy with any of them. I've also been quite busy lately, end of semester. I started doing a song since the last one i showed but after some time of not really knowing what to do with it, i decided to focus on other ones so that maybe i could come back to it with a more refreshed perspective. I wanted to do something more vaporwave focused, whilst leaving a lot of elements of early dnb and jungle, I also decided to get rid of high frequencies but i dont really know if it actually works as i intended.

absolutely horrendous cover I did. enjoy.

Some stuff I've recorded First one uses a sample of a guy named sean kennedy. Secound one is something i improvised a while ago.! + some fx >>12268 I like it! Its solid and its fun to listen cause its instrumental. :D >>12245 Cool i like it and very good use of all of the samples together! I do think getting rid of the high frequenices worked tho I think you could raise it a little more. Lot of samples that I would like to hear the high end on more.

A minimal synth song I made a while ago

>>12304 I did grindcore and electronic too.

>>12312 I like it. The panning/mixing is nice and the drum machine's very kraftwerk sounding :D >>12323 I like the techno one. The distorted bass with the hihat is cool near the middle.. Curious what software do you folks use for your DAW/workflow in general? I'm using Ardour and sometimes Audacity (for playing with samples), Speedrum for a drum sampler.

>>12188 your tune is super interesting, OP. I really like the weird tuning drifts across samples (or whatever sounds like it)

first: lifelover "destination - ingenstans" sample. 6 min, wip since at least 2023. remotely breakcore. this is The Great Work of mine, though sounds pretty basic compared to most of the stuff here. this is the 2023 version. opus in the ogg. second: a short loop using just surge xt made in one evening. 23 mar 2024. flac in the ogg. >>12190 i like the dynamic bass here >>12324 reaper + surge xt & nothing else lately. thinking of creating my own daw based on the ideas from pagan ( https://burnsomni.net/git/pagan ).

>>12268 The guitar and drums work well together. Sounds like it was recorded super hot, which I really like. >>12304 The sampled one really appeals to me but I'm not sure why. It's good >>12312 I don't listen to a lot of electronic but this is sounds great. Groovy. First is a WIP rock track done in ardour with hydrogen drum machine (guitars are a little out of tune, need to re-record them) Second is a short RPG-style synth track

>>12378 old cover i made, when i was 14, only exported it just today.

>>12380 Another one, most of these are just old ableton tracks that are just vocals, or bass and vocals.

>>12304 some new electronic stuff you might like :)

demos of stuff I've been working on

>>12444 these are great i like your synth sounds a lot, good vibe too this is an old ardour track my brother and i worked on a while ago

I struggled making these two tracks. How do yall do it? How do yall get that musical juice and creativity? When I open FL Studio I have no idea what to even first do

>>12378 I like the first one! Reminds me a lot of a soundgarden/Kim Thayil riff in the beginning >>12386 I like the effects on the vocals on both of these :D >>12387 Lol the sample and nice breakbeat - reminds me of a old tracker song >>12444 These are both so detuned and chiptuney - I love it :D >>12454 Cool - Synth in the background makes it sound really nostalgic :D >>12455 These are really good! Like the transition out of the ambience in the first one. I find its helpful to live life more and draw from real feelings - carrying a small notebook around for when ever you feel inspired ( even if its not lyrics ) for making music. As far as methodology goes try experimenting with different software or approaches (for some examples: recording ambience, random things around your house being hit to make drums, mess around recording something on cassette tape, make a tape loop or a splice, etc) for what its worth..! First song is W.I.P Second song is a synth drone thing with lyrics at end

Here's a project ive been working on for a little bit https://slimesoft.bandcamp.com/album/lucent-sysex-overture

>>12188 It reminds me of the Sim City soundtrack for SNES, which is a compliment. A very nostalgic kind of sound. I thought your use of mild dissonance about halfway through was nice too. I would appreciate any thoughts on the music I've been making. I'm going for dark lofi hiphop with most of it, but I've also done a few narrative tracks that try to tell a story. I've attached three tracks that I think give a good sampling.

>>12454 Any feedback is good feedback. >>12188 Let me guess: You make Dungeon Synth? Very great stuff. >>12326 Man, I want to know how to make intros like these >>12378 The first one sounds very grunge, these guitar harmonies are glorious. The second one could be great if it was longer and had more ideas into it. >>12387 Is this sample from a AVGN episode or something? >>12444 Loved it, would like to know what you are actually working in. >>12454 This made me laugh, thank you. >>12455 Just analyse lots of music you already like, but to do this you need to already know lots of theory and production soykaf, then when you start something new, you already have a clue of what to create without sounding like shameless copying. Also, don't forget to practice and study, things will not come to you that easy. To be clear, I'm the same guy in the >>12312 and I absolutely regret making this, but thanks anyway for who listened to it.

>>12455 Well, did you have fun making them? As for myself I struggle to keep working on tracks for more than a day or two, I export them as is and go to the next thing. That's a strange this, I can spend hours polishing code, but when it come to music I couldn't care less

>>12511 The first one appeals to me a lot, really nice. It's like super chill breakcore? >>12455 Listen to a lot of music you like (A LOT) and try to think of how you would make something better. If it helps, I almost always have a melody of some sort (guitar, bass, vocal or smth) in my head before I begin. Then I move to drums (I use hydrogen drum machine). Good drums make half of a good song. And by good i dont mean "oooh this kick is soo saturated" but I mean drum parts that accentuate certain parts of the song. Treat it as another melody instrument and compose parts for it to play that fit with the other instruments while driving the rhythm. As for the creative juices...i dont really know. I just like making music. Is there anytime you listen to a song and think "man I wish it was like this instead"? Make a song that fills in the gaps you notice in the music you listen to. One time I had a riff come to me in my dreams. Think about music so much that riffs start showing up in your dreams and you will be on the way. I don't know if this is good advice but I hope it can help Here's the finished version of this >>12378 song. I'm not completely happy with everything but I'll never be done otherwise. Ended up going with a downtuned strat instead of me humbuckos

>>12508 no, the samples are taken from taxi driver and some random tarantino movie, dont remember, but heres an older recorded one.

my first attempt at using LMMS to make music for a videogame.

>>12488 Is that you singing on Walking in Reverse? You have an absolutely amazing voice if so, if you have any more music with you singing I'd listen to it quite frequently I think. I also liked One Mile From Home, but Walking In Reverse is very, very nice. Please post more.

>>12652 Reminds me very much of Idioteque by Radiohead, I like it. >>12562 I like it lainon, everything is recorded quite nicely but I must say that the synth sits very oddly in the mix. >>12521 You have a very pleasant voice anon, I would have never guessed the drums weren't recorded acoustically I'll have to look into Hydrogen drum machine. Please post more of your music if you see this, I didn't see any artist data in your mp3 and I'd really like to listen to more of your work. >>12456 gitsvibe is very comfy, very nice soundtrack for some lainchan browsing. >>12359 Don't be so hard on yourself lainon, that extra time really shows, this track is immediately captivating in a way that not much music is. It's not even my preferred genre but the quality of the mix and general production of this track is truly excellent. I really can't overstate how much I enjoy this one, my favorite in the thread so far. If you ever release a full EP or album make sure to share it here please.

>>12456 I too find trying to capture feelings or moments in music to be inspiring. Even if you don't end up liking what you made you probably learned something you can take away from it and use for other stuff, or sample it and use it for something else. I made this after a walk through town on a snowy night trying to capture that feeling.

this track, called ><>, is the last one i made 2 years ago. it was for a /mu/ makes an album thread (the album got removed from bandcamp kek). disclaimer: it's a soykafpost, but is still indicative of my stylistic interest, which is more in the realm of sound collage than focused construction. i'm wondering if anyone has any advice on increasing output. looking over my meager oeuvre, the common trait among all of it is that i had a reason for making something. art is not catharsis for me (except when i'm overcome by a physical need for it, which i satisfy by improvising on 1 instrument), but more so a complement/contribution to some other thing or for some purpose. i currently have no such reasons/external forces in my life, so i'm not motivated to make anything to practice more. any tips on like...getting into situations that would satisfy those requirements, or tricking myself into them? i made a document of prompts, little kernels from which to work, but that hasn't really worked either. >>12323 kek i dig the grindy one, though it sounds closer to black metal than grind. i made a similar sounding track except i recorded the feedback i was getting from my computer for the "melody" and put a latin drum loop behind it. added mine for reference.

i dunno if this counts ;_;

>>12684 No anon, please don't post AI slop in this thread there's an AI art thread where it is more appropriate if you want to do that.

>>12685 But it's not in /music/ is it?

Some living-room acoustic guitar, living-room electric guitar, and a midi thing.

>>12689 goblins is fun, i like the atmosphere

>>12684 god i cant stress enough how much a despise AI content, i know this is supposed to be the next new technological marvel but in the long term it is not sustainable

https://on.soundcloud.com/yucSM

>>12690 Thanks :). I woke up one morning with that melody in my head.

Made a simple drums and bass track to practice to, then accidentally recorded a bunch of guitar overdubs over it.

>>12696 yes lain this is swell

>>12699 Let's hear some of your stuff.

>>12678 the bass mix is soykafe too imo

acid memories in pygmy musgrave in 88 CET & eikosany

>>12678 i'm really grateful you like it; getting feedback from strangers kinda wracks my nerves. This is another finished track valled Valkyrie Blues recorded a while ago. I'm working on an album and hope to finish it within a month or so. I could post a link here when its done. As of right now my only 'official' page is my trash website which has almost nothing on it (radelodia dot xyz). I'm gonna put my music in a bunch of places (hopefully) when the album is done. >>12508 This is cool, it psyched me out at the beginning when the ride came in and it turned kind of jazzy >>12562 Nice vibes, I'd recommend lowpassing the synth but that's just a suggestion. I loved when the guitars came in >>12635 Really cool. Makes me think of Wizardy VII for some reason >>12652 I like the synths you used on this one >>12679 This sounds heavenly. really calming

im in a bit of a rut right now. i had a wretched sinus infection in october and i still don't have my voice back enough to be able to confidently record vocals. for this track i'm working on i did some weird wavestune editing on spoken vocals to get a vocaloid-ish effect with my own voice but i want to sing normally for the verses so i'm kinda stuck for now. the chiptune-y parts were made on my gameboy with lsdj. >>12738 the song itself is very nice, especially the guitar parts. i feel like the drum production could be tighter and less bassy though. a lot of people make the mistake of overdoing it on the bass with their mixes and that crowds the mix really quickly and can harm the definition of a sound. >>12735 these are very pretty. some of the synth patches are a bit harsh at first but once you settle into the song it's really gorgeous. i'd listen to a whole album of songs like this. >>12679 please tell me you have a bandcamp i love this. just the right amount of dirt and distortion on top of some really nice soundscapes

>>12683 more of my grind soykaf

>>12747 there are parts of each that i prefer to the others (drum sound in 2, the upper register noodle in 3 around 20 seconds in and the blast beats) but if you combined the elements into 1 section it'd be cool. not enough variation currently to justify the length, but if it were a segment of a 2 minute long track that lasted like, idk, 8 bars or something, it'd be pretty effective i think.

>>12748 they are lazy because I made them when I was mostly stoned, lol

made a bit lazy remake of aphex twin - xtal. charm of original track completely disappeared to me, but im still ok with result. planning to try to remake ageispolis.

>>12747 i rlly like these ones cus i grew up on grind. could have a bit more variation and lo fi production tho >>12740 this genuinely sounds like something that would be big in the 10s >>12738 this one is really nice too. reminds me of something but i cant put my finger on it like maybe jethro tull? anyways heres one i made to mess with some samples

>>12738 Thanks, Im glad you found it calming :) >>12740 Thank you! I don't have a bandcamp or anything really. Stresses me out mostly. love what you did with the vocals! Never got the hang of lsdj but ive been enjoying the m8 so maybe its time to pick the gameboy back up. >>12755 Really impressive remake

It's been a long time since I've been on lainchan, but I remembered this thread, and am glad I checked it out. So happy to see so many people come together and just share their music. So much good music too, I saved a bunch (screenshot). I'd particularly like to commend the acoustic guitar players, who made this guy who normally hates acoustic guitar appreciate what the instrument can do. Wish I knew where to find more music like that. I've got not much new, school keeps me from pouring a lot of time into something. violence.mp3 I made for a game jam, not super proud of it but still like it. Just haven't been inspired musically either, I tend to write more these days. Since this thread did quite well, I feel like sharing my best track, There_was_an_attempt.mp3 which was a kinda improvised piece, the best seven minutes of my life, and something I'll probably never do again. I hope you all like it.

>>12386 dug up an oldie for you guys

Trenches is a bit old, I really need to record some music. My guitar playing has improved a lot since then and I've essentially quit smoking so my voice is a bit better than it was here but this is the only fully recorded and arranged song that I have that I think holds up.

a small low-effort remix. had hard techno/trance/rave in my mind, like what nfract does. came out nothing alike, but still cool i guess.

me: >>12359 >>13019 0b ... '25 ... still experimenting fdfsadfa (anxiety) and ikkkkr (bye) ... circa '23 >>12678 thank you, this is my first feedback. so my stuff's not that bad after all.. still i've heard better.. it's impossible for me to finish any tracks, let alone release an album. the inspiration is always sudden and fleeting, during this short time i make something beautiful. and then i don't know how to continue. >>12735 >>12804 >>12817 >>12839 these hit the spot.. nothing else do i have to say

i dont expect anything to come out of this but i recorded these

>>13022 that was phenomenal, the second file especially, i have downloaded both audios, thank you for this was beautiful

>>12190 I like it! **body fillter bullshit**

>>13022 tabs for the first one pls

>>12378 Dude, that first one is a really nice groove with some good melody over interesting changes and some nice playing. That's something I would enjoy hearing in a clib. It reminded me of Country Joe and the Fish, a psychedelic band from the 1960's that I like. The second one was ok, had a melody unlike most of the stuff here, but I liked the first one better. Nice. Thanks.

>>12521 Hey, another one I'd stop to listen to in a club. That one reminded me of Jefferson Airplane, The guitar break sounded like Jorma Kaukonen. Nice, thanks again.

>>12190 i love this track, vibe is immaculate

some soykaf tracks, hopefully one of you enjoys :)

>>13022 I like that first riff, very ominous and could work well as an intro. Are you planning on using it as an intro for the second clip or are they just 2 separate things? >>13044 The first is really interesting, are you doing intentional polyrhythms there or just kinda throwing stuff together? I like this kind of noisy thing even if I don't really know what it's called. Your second one is cool too, I like that kind of weird speech sample building up to a drop thing I'm the same anon who posted >>12521 and just finished my first album. it's on bandcamp for free if you want to download any of the tracks, I don't want to clutter up this thread by posting each one: https://radelodia.bandcamp.com/album/exultant-album i'm not completely satisfied with it but at least it's finished. some songs on it are definitely better than others

I'll just post this here, wish I had the willpower to properly arrange and record things over a period of time or had people to play with.

Got some stuff I released recently: https://fmlatghor.bandcamp.com/album/my-face-knows-me-well (on streaming services too) I'm in an artistic transition though. Taking a lot of inspiration from Yiddish poetry. Using SuperCollider (SC) now.

>>13078 Bought and downloaded I really like your choice of synths. The songs are very moody and cool

>>13078 I really like this type of sound, not sure if it's SC or what. I think it has a very specific sound, I've never used it so I can't really say much.

>>13022 i ended up recording this with a bass track as a demo for an artist i may be collaborating with, i'll send the link to a google drive upload from my website >>13036 not entirely sure how to format tabs on lainchan but let me use one of those websites and then screenshot it >>13048 >Are you planning on using it as an intro for the second clip or are they just 2 separate things? they're 2 separate things, i turned the first one into an actual demo>>13048

>>13048 appreciate the feedback :D i can't remember clearly, i produced it in 2018 but iirc it was a bit of an experiment to get out of the grid. was listening to a lot of grime at the time so the syncopation in that was influencing it a lot. your album is so fuarrrking good! honestly very impressive and could see you developing a cult following. the mixing is not only super clean, but i respect that you didn't stick to the same formula across the record, you can tell each track was crafted individually. sparrow, the answer & valkryie blues are my favorites.

>>12188 here is something i made, pirated ableton

>>13363 i used your demo to jam with my drums, i hope you find it cool

not sure what i'm doing and that's fine, part of the process

>>13565 kinda sounds like a remix from celeste, like you would see in one of the harder levels, awesome

>>13602 thank you for the feedback kind anon ヘ( ^o^)ノ＼(^_^ )

hexd inspired album i just finished, idk how to describe it rly lmao https://3evee.bandcamp.com/album/3evee4me

haven't done synthwave for a while

>>12268 im the same guy as this post https://burnttoash.bandcamp.com/album/utter-fuarrrking-destruction this is something i did in 2023, enjoy.

some songs i tried making. very cool music being posted on this thread btw

>>13358 oh man, thanks! I sometime don't know who's actually listening to my stuff. The new stuff I'm working on is even better, though I'm struggling with mixing and mastering.

>>13361 This album was all composed in LMMS, which I've composed some of my current album with, though I'm working to make the transition to SC with an interface like Ardour or the Param quark. I'm so sick of LMMS. I've been using it since I first started making music, which was 6 years ago, also the same time I started using linux. Learning SC really got me out of a creative rut I had after finishing that album, My Face Knows Me Well.

>>13870 I like the first one. I appreciate the risks you took on this. Wanting to work with a singer (female) on music. I make IDM. I'm very inventive with processing and glitching vocals (microsound techniques, resynthesis, Hilbert transforms).

fuarrrk guys I don't know what to do. I started making music when I was twelve. I'm twenty one now. I put it on pause the last 2.5 years to study, in fact only made one song in that time. I want to come back but everything I've done the last few days plops out stillborn and dead. I follow the process through but can't make headway. I feel like I'm not supposed to do this. How was this was my passion for six years yet I feel I learned nothing of how to do this? My self-worth has always been tied to my music, which isn't very good. When I was fifteen I made my best song yet, and it depressed me because I thought it was a fluke, and I could never make anything better again. But just as I made headway, university stood in my way... It would be much easier if I could accept that I am just a listener. I've tried, but part of me wants to try make something... the muscle's all atrophied and sluggish.

>>13877 Send what you're working on, tell us what your goals are, tell us how you're approaching composition, and then we can try the best to assist you. Art is hard. You can only do it for the purpose of discovering new things or you'll get stuck in negative feedback loops. You're simply going to have to struggle for a while before it sounds good. But to lesson the struggle, read books on what interests you about the art-making process, hang out with other producers.

>>13877 Getting back into anything takes time. Keep at it and you quality will improve. Listen to music that inspires you. This will give you the fire back If you'd be okay with posting the "stillborn and dead" tracks, I wouldn't mind hearing them. Maybe they're just rough gems, idk. It's all good if not

>>12952 I enjoyed this, listened to it a few time and will listen to it again.

>>12188 This might be a slightly off-topic place to drop this, but does anyone know what the song and the video are from in the YouTube video linked below. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/wTpnAkkq_V0 I've managed to uncover that the song is "Middle of the Night", but in my ear the one in the YT video is a cover, with deeper bass drops, "electric" transitions, and higher pitch. Also, I'm starting to doubt whether the video itself is even a legit music video. Could really use the help... been scouring the wired for a day so far.

>>12444 What synth is that? Can you share whatever deets >>12488 Wow, Walking in Reverse is great.

made some new stuff, it’s a deviation from the old sound, more discharge/doom influenced.

>>13921 Which synth on which track? I'll just drop the project files. Just remove the .txt extension. That was because of the forum's upload restrictions.

Been debating posting, it's just some noise ambient... experiment of some sort? I dig how it sounds, but I really feel like I am lacking in something, since I don't particularly know what qualifies as 'good' noise ambient. Particularly around the 4 minute mark, I feel like I could manage more here, it gets quiet. Maybe that isn't a bad thing? I guess anyone who know the genre or at least wants to give a tip or two, lemme hear em. This is the first thing i've come close to finishing in a few months, I have a bad track record of never finishing projects. >>12190 Absolutely loved and saved that track, I want that in my music rotation. >>12456 Dig the droning, particularly the higher pitched soft buzzing wavering a bit, building up a tense anxiety for that release at the end. Love it. >>12689 I love all 3 of these but like the other lainon said, goblins has a likeable atmosphere, plus i very much dig the old-ass MIDI sound, got a good midi composer program worth its salt? >>13426 Hey i like this, hope you kept it up.

not my music, but I edited it and like the way it sounds in my ears :) I'd argue the concept gets tired shortly into the song, and maybe it's not worth it's weight at all. Either way, I think the first short snippet of 10 seconds could be used to do something cool.

this one’s an angry samoans cover, it’s fun to play

>>13913 Nevermind, after weeks of searching, I've managed to find it. Now my soul can rest in peace. https://youtu.be/upM5EgN4AN0?si=eYzwlzeIPzEkIYWD

>>13954 >>13924 if anyone can give me any critiques on my new sound and all I will appreciate that. :D

>>13954 also now with vocals, I spent like 5 minutes and only got the vocals in 2 takes

>>13697 Groovy >>13776 I like >>13870 I love both of these. How did you make them? They remind me of touhou a bit This is something I hope to put on an upcoming album

>>12188 acidchase.bandcamp.com mostly ambient type stuff I put it out close to ten years ago when I was a lot younger. someone here might find it interesting.

https://soundcloud.com/kartutu/introducing-the-new-flaver-wav I made a track that sounds like a 2005 television with a ps2 plugged in.

>>13870 >hohoo.mp3 Feels forced. No distinctive melody, it doesn't know where it wants to go. Was the dissonant arpeggio intended? And you don't have to have these trumpets in your tracks. Do you accept the no-ZUNpet challenge? >sosososd.mp3 Much better than the previous track, but the melody still doesn't know where it wants to go.

stoner rock tune I made yesterday

it feels quite vulnerable to be sharing songs with lyrics. i hope you enjoy. i spent a lot more time than i expected listening to lain's music ... anyways >>12387 i fuarrrking love when samples are used like this, it gets quite grating tho i would've liked to see more variations on the different chops, probably would also help leave some more space for the music to shine through. please continue using samples like this. >>13870 very charming >>13021 your mixing and sound design are perfect i find it incredibly surprising despite how short the phrases are and how small many of the variations >>13924 on fuarrrk the world i'd say both samples are quite a bit too loud for my taste, ends up making the guitar feel. as for the music itself, i would say you've done a good job expressing the feeling through your playing, but not every listener might be able to tell since as i mentioned the music is so much smaller than the samples east side has a different problem with the sample at the beginning, like the other one has a nice transition from just the sample into the music. this one, the music just sort of appears. i would advise a little bit of feedback from the amp or maybe just letting the strings ring out for a while before the music starts would make it a much more enjoyable listen. >>13968 hahaha this is gnarly >>13044 garagefreestyle is a helluva dope loop and i thought the bass drone would be a nice outro but then it just starts up the same loop again? like i guess that would make sense with a rapper but if you're sharing it as a beat i think it could stand to be quite a bit shorter, and it could benefit from some another section wave is incredibly corny but i enjoyed it nonetheless. >>12817 this rips. the filter snare, the digital bass, the . the way it builds on itself. when the bass goes stereo is kinda fuarrrking insane. >>12740 deeply beautiful and nostalgic. please share updates if you ever get the chance, it would be delightful to hear the finished song

I made a song and an accompanying video. https://youtu.be/_PRXRkisrQ0

>>14046 also strange. OP describes me perfectly somehow, is the GATE kicking in?

>>14036 new one I did just today.

don't be lazy petite bourgeois brats.

another one, it is powerviolence this time.

>>14056 nice but you should have screamed into a mic to make it even more powerful

>>12188 witness me bros https://soundcloud.com/kulturgeist/europe-what-a-letdown?in=kulturgeist/sets/six-thousand-years-late-b

>>14036 Love. Sounds like Kyuss... >>14033 Enjoy da moment! It is genuinely good, and very cute.

>>14051 I approve of your composition, arrangement, and performance

>>14057 i made a guitar cover and a version of my song with vocals

i did some soykafty thing https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_mEt_D57_6LwiXNXaWAyykRpujppKyhSwE&si=Apel1jXHoLu24VFH

>>13974 i love this, the transition reminds me of Naxatras

Art-rock sortt of experiment, spanish and english lyrics: https://jcbastian.bandcamp.com/album/jcbastian

>>14098 this makes me feels things this is great it reminds me of listening to c418 even tho the vibe is kinda different have you made any trap beats XD

Cursory https://lethalstep.bandcamp.com/track/rynestone-eyez-version-loop-slowed-reverb

>>12188 Find someone to make an 8-bit animation for you >>13980 the great big jelly thing is the one, seriously digging your angle

>>14112 thanks friend means alot; i do make trap every now and then but nothing special

>>14042 oooh yeeeeh.. I really like this lainanon You got these on a lossless format?

>>12188 https://serenatasmodulares.bandcamp.com/track/montecristo A sort of dubby feel with this one, coupled with a really nice pad that i sampled from a moe shop song (would be fun if anyone guessed which one it is, so shoot away)

>>13968 i got bored and rerecorded this with live guitar, just redid the guitar tracks, nothing else

I made this a couple months ago with my Elektron Model Cycles, which i am thourougly in love with. this is the first track ive ever really finished so i would love feedback

A couple trance songs I made in the past year. >>14047 The melodies remind me of the cell stage music from Spore. >>14174 Not really my style desu, but it's not bad for a first track. It needs some melody or harmony, like some pads to fill the space.

would you consider this finished? i myself would never fininsh anything. getting bored of this one already.

too lazy for now, let it be here in case i never touch it again. beautiful.

some stuff I came up with today

An experiment in breakcore improvisation. Had two samplers loaded with breakcore samples and tried to make something cool. I think it has it's moments. No promise you'll like it though.

here's some random wip bs i made a few months ago been too depressed to be creative lately thanks for reading my blog >>14186 i really like these, makes me want to get back into less maximalist less pop-y production

still been trying to figure out my whole groove, but I've been trying at doing music for a good few years now. If any kind lainon has absolutely any advice for any screaming techniques please say so, vocal coaches are so fuarrrking expensive in my area that it's insane

disrupt cover I cooked up a few weeks ago, it’s pretty neat

Releasing a new album soon, most of it has been released as singles here already!! This is the cover art btw (WIP) https://soundcloud.com/3evee

>>14293 Lookin forward to it! TEENAGE SOLDIER is REALLY solid. Nice scan, too :)

>>14295 Awe tysm!!! Excited to release it, I'll post links here when it's done! And the art is a commission by https://dsdistro.noblogs.org/ :D

>>14293 your track on your spotlight section "they gon try kill me again" goes hard, love it can't wait to see your album

Here's some breakbeat idea I made in audacity at work today. All sample based

>>14293 thanks for following me back fren ^_^ your remixes are very cool :)

>>13912 thank you, this one is also me >>13073

here is a little midwest emo thing i did, this is in FACGCE tuning with the capo on the fourth fret, trying to find patterns in the C major scale and ended up with this

>>14187 Could be, I feel like the part at 1:16 was a bit out of place for the mood you set in the beginning, but that's just a taste thing, otherwise I liked the gloomy tone. Here's a tune a made yesterday.

>>14607 Huh it didn't upload. Hopefully it will now.

>>14608 Is it an extension that's preventing it?? Weird. Final attempt.

>>12190 this is so good, would you mind sharing more details about how you made this? The break chops/drum programming is great, i love the snare rolls. How do you get the ambient sounds to be so clear, is it mostly EQ or ? and that delay sounds great. id love to hear any info your willing to share :)

>>14613 Hey there lainanon Its been around 2 years since I did the song you're asking about, so I might end up getting some details wrong Back then, my favorite way of producing music was via FL Studio, which is what I used >How do you get the ambient sounds to be so clear It was mainly through the usage of Valhalla Shimmer and some EQ. If you go about it in the proper way, you'll get very CRISPY ambient pads The delay effects were made with the default plugins that FL Studio comes with Drum programming was made manually and is never the same twice. I think you can notice this clearly with the snare rolls more than with any other element of the drum break In regards to samples, I stole from a bunch of different sources, BUT, I think that giving them away would spoil the fun Oh, I also recorded myself playing the guitar, which is clearly audible once the drop comes in If any lainanon wants the song for free, you can get it here https://waveracerscollective.bandcamp.com/track/red-looks-gorgeous-on-you-w-sankyorow And if you're interested, please listen to my new stuff it's definitely not as HYPER and definitely not as loud, but I personally like it even more that what I was doing before https://anextceado.bandcamp.com/track/puffe0

just came across some soykafty noodling wiht reverse reverb i did awhile ago, here you go ERROR YOU DIDN'T MAKE A POST oh really??

lainchan won. im so sorr yappleman why did i think i deserved to upload mp3s to your very good web internet site

Do you guys welcome /dmp/ migrants?

Using vocaroo because lainchan keeps rejecting my mp3 upload :( https://voca dot ro/1831PBqn6LCe This is a WIP from my next album, I only have maybe 1 or 2 songs left to complete instrumentally, then I'll do a final pass for all vocals. >>14187 This is really nice. Not sure what kind of emotion it makes me feel, but it's interesting. I like the contrast between the melody and the noise. >>14300 Like this one too >>14542 Very nice. Reminds me of my brother's playing (that's a compliment). Do you have plans to do anything with it? >>14715 >>14717 Don't give up. I want to hear the soykafty reverse reverb noodling. You can do it lain

>>14721 i'm a tranny nigger (tigger for short) and i love peace i ain't talking peace in the middle east, i'm talking WORLD peace my tigga
