another week of playing with logic virtual instruments. there's actually not all that many in this one, but there is some effects, delays, and eq cuts going on to create variety. the drumming on this one was interesting to me because I put the snares on the first beat (and the third), which made all the transitions offset a bit from where I'm used to. hope you enjoy

Oh this is wild - my mind actually shifted the snare to 2 and 4.  The keyboard riff is kind of circular so it didn't sound bad in that sense, but it does make the transitions seem kind of surprising.  Nice idea!

I love the mellow vibe. It doesn't really feel like you put the snares in 1 and 3, instead it sounds like the first hit is upbeat, putting it back into 2 and 4.

Like the panning delay, sounds great on headphones, nice drums

You really mastered that drumkit... very nice beat.
I guess it's just my brain but i have the feel of snare on 2 and four...
Synth sounds are awesome especially this funky chord thing...

That drum beat is fucking awesome. In reality, the entire song is fucking awesome!

thanks! when i listen i kinda hear them on the 2 & 4 also to be honest, though i suppose it's ultimately the same thing until the transitions hit.

thanks! and yeah, it doesn't really make a difference where they are i suppose since they're evenly spaced. just makes editing the track odd since every thing feels shifted 1/4 bar. glad you enjoyed it smile

thanks! funky chords with circular delays i almost feel like i overuse, but i love how they make the repetition harder to identify. glad to hear you're enjoying the drum kit too cause i'm always jealous of the drums you use ha.
