Written entirely on Dirtywave M8 Tracker
Light mastering in Audacity (normalizing/limiting/compressing).

A continuation of last week's track's outro, which was the previous week's outro, which was the previous week's outro, which...

Kind of liking this one more than the others.
Kind of reminding me of Hellsing's OST.
Kind of having a lot of potential, will need a bit more work to have a great track.

Thanks for listening.

Uh! Love how that beat hits with all the chaotic color behind it heart

Although a bit underworked, it's one of my fav so far.
Thanks for listening!

I love the vibe of this one. Kinda sounds like a Danny Brown beat or something. Excellent drums and nice droning chords.

Big fan of the mix and general clean sound. The first breaks entrance is awesome. Your bass has a lot of life and character to it.

damn, yeah this has HEAT

this is a banger. clean mix for the parts you intended to be clean. impressive m8 work. I imagine a rap over this - it'd go hard!

Didn't know Danny Brown, but as it seems he released on Warp Records, I take that as a huge compliment!
You mention droning, it's usually how stuff is written because of the limited time, yet here it doesn't feel repetitive at all, kind of a miracle...

No idea how it achieved to sound so clean (the drums are using the M8 LFO trick to time-stretch, didn't know about the REPITCH way at the time) and sound crusty as hell, but it gives it a bit lo-fi charm, I guess?

Listening a few more (hundred) times today to understand what's going on. Stank face all day long.

A rap or Beth Gibbons sing-crying over it. 😄
I think I remember thinking "it's always too busy, keep it low on layers", and the samples used are quite wide in frequencies range that sure helped, thankfully, as I didn't carve too much with filters IIRC.


To all, thanks for listening. 🙏
Looking forward to your next tracks!
