You Heard I Like To Party
tldr: sampling jwh's week 1 and week 2 submissions to create this track.
Storytime kids, sit around and listen somewhat carefully.
It was a long time ago, 2026, Weekly Beats Week 1 just ended, and I was listening to jwh's week 1 submission.
A thought popped into my mind: "Turn this into some minimal techno, Yoeri, do it, do it".
And as the big Mufusual in the sky faded, I thought, why not?
I asked jwh for permission, and he was so kind to send me the stems.
I took all kinds of little bleeps and bloops, mangled pieces, and mainly used Waves's "Ovox" synth to create new sounds from his stems.
The track was progressing somewhat nicely; it wasn't great, but good enough.
then, Ovox started acting out, it kept resetting itself and nothing sounded the same, and since I already experienced Ovox doing this a few years prior, I gave up trying to get it fixed.
By then, Week 2 was over, and jhw posted an alternative version of his week one submission, and I really loved the vocals.
Again, asking jwh for permission to use these on top of the samples I had from his week 1 submission.
For almost 12-or-so hours (over a couple of days), these vocals would repeat over and over again, putting me in some trancelike state while I was figuring out how to use the few surviving samples from my previous attempt.
Believe me, I kept hearing these vocals even in my sleep, hehe.
Eventually, I dropped the hard limit on only using samples collected by cutting up/wrangling/distorting the stems and just went with the flow.
By the time I was halfway through the track, I sadly needed to pick up the pace, as my current client suddenly set a tight deadline, and a new client with a tight deadline was added to my agenda. Ahh, life, always getting in the way of the plans we make.
So In two additional few hour sesions I winged it, went with the flow, and this is the result.
There's def some stuff I'd redo, tweak, and edit, but the most important thing is that I had a fun time creating it.
Something, something, trying to create shorter tracks, something, something, always next time.
Special thanks to jwh for being an awesome person and sending me the stems.
Be sure to listen to his tracks, I really love them.
Since I own a bleeeepload of VSTs but always fall back to the same ones, I made a list of all the VSTs I own and will try to incorporate some of them every week.

Have a great week, everyone!
