Soft Sequence

By Bleeoop on March 13, 2022 7:51 pm

Have been working on a track idea which kept getting worse and worse the more I added to it. Finally decided to scrap it altogether and do a new one around Thursday. Better results although not enough time to properly flesh it out

oh I hate when that happens and you just have to abandon ship.
this one turned out nice though, sounds like you might've made the right choice.

such beautiful rolling waves! with a tasteful tapering into a whole nother world in the second half that comes back nicely full circle big_smile

It's very gentle, I like it.

Love the dynamic and slow swells in here. A great journey and a very good result of your efforts.

I always tell myself I can finish any sketch, but starting from scratch is often faster and produces better results. still I archive the files so maybe one day...

thank you very very much!

I like how you take a rather simple sequence and make it evolve through the track. Nice journey.

Wow that middle section is so lush and relaxing. This is really fantastic, man.

wow the rhythmic loop is so fascinating.  I was tapping my foot and then lost it and kept trying to find the "1" - very exciting.  what'd you make this with?  so beautiful.  do you have albums so I can get lots of bleeoop all at once?

I know, especially when you have only two days to do something and one day was wasted on krap

the ending repetition was SO GOOD and made SO MUCH SENSE!  I was like "ohhhhhhhhhh snap!" when it happened.

the shaker part comes from a loop from a pack of jazzy brushed drums. i love that type of sound but I always end up cutting and reworking it a lot because the jazz swing doesn't really fit with my music, then there's a second part which is made by feeding the same sound into a delay and gate plugin so there's two different rhythms going on.
I've made this all on FL studio with Arturia Pigments and Spitfire Labs and pianobook instruments.

There's no real albums sorry, I tried to submit demos of the more ambient stuff to ambient labels but there's no real interest

Producer's discipline is fine and dandy, but I think you took the right choice. This track sounds quite cinematic and interestic. The brassy synth around 2:04 gives it a somewhat vague 70's feeling.

Kudos for having the courage to discard all the fluff and restart.

Really enjoyable result
