Another Forest

By Bearcage on January 29, 2026 4:24 pm

Made for the M8 Community Jam 48, Forest.

Started off with the Cure's fantastic 'A Forest' for inspiration, & using same key & tempo, decided to make a follow up 'A Forest 2' track. Guitar, pad, bass guitar & sub  all from the MPC, sampled into the M8 via the challenge 'external fx'... Used my newly acquired J Rockett Archer Overdrive pedal.
Also used this pedal to do a live cutoff & res tweaking recording of the TD3 into the M8 over about 24 bars or so for a bit of movement.
Arranged in the M8 & cranked up the LIM & OTT

Oh shiiiiiit, I did NOT expect the acid lasers to burst in the door like that!!! This is awesome!!! Also that bass line is SCRUMPTIOUS.

Agreed, that bass line bounces my soul as if i, myself, belong in the mix. And the squelchy acid lines are the creamy icing on the cake, way to make a track that really draws the listener in, beautiful work! heart

Nice one mate! Feels like a creepy forest walk.
Love the live tweaked 303 and the subtle build in stereo wideness.
