Week 24: we can go speedier, trashier, and more ambient.
Also I've been bad at responding to comments (sorry!) but there have been some questions about a few parts of how I've been doing this M8 speedtrash ambient. Basically I'll just do a quick render sample of either internal M8 stuff or an external synth (sometimes TEO-5, today was the iPad Korg M1 app), often pitched up before recording. Then I'll pitch down the sample, downsample it somewhere between 2-4 times (there's not exact number, it's by ear), then I'll put a drunk LFO on the pitch just a tiny little bit to give it that tape warble, and I'll add more stuff and repeat the process several times over. If you're enjoying these little things, great! I'm glad. They're lazy but they've been fun to make. If you haven't been enjoying them, I think there are still 200+ other tracks each week that you could probably go check out 
Be well, friends!
