I gotta make my weekly beat

WB2024 is over now…
What to say.
First, thanks to you all. It is always great to be part of this WB project. Some older users are still pulling strong, there were quite a bit of new faces as well this year and it was super to hear you guys feedbacks and listen to your music.
It is very inspiring (or maybe motivating is the better word?) to hear from you and listen to some pretty fantastic songs.
Did try something maybe a bit ambitious for this final track. Did a wide open collaboration invitation on the discord channel and could « hire » quite a bit of good people…
I wish I had put a better structure - project management for this track, but life, you know! For sure it would have been super fun to have at least a videoconference meet, brainstorm more, have more inputs from you guys about track structure and arrangement but all in all super happy that as many did hop in and in a way it was perfect as it did work out.
First two that did send me things are Jegasus and that_ranjit, closed super close by naught101 (your samples were not that easy to work with!!! But it is fine I know my drums probably are not either!)
Then I had chunky guitars from DESLRV.
Then super cool guitar solo from Kedbreak136 (and nice reverse cymbal and sound fx sample!)
Horatiu Romantic saved the day with super cool Piano and especially very cool singing. You gotta make it quick and dirty!!!
Didn’t see Huabun parts before this early Sunday, he probably added your tracks before Horatiu if Google is right. His pianos especially are gorgeous in my opinion, so I did try to find a place to showcase his parts as well.
I did try to build a « cohesive » track with all those parts and I feel it is close.
I never work with as many tracks-parts, did like the experience.
I am going to see good friends this Sunday, will still grab the laptop in case more parts get uploaded then try to tidy up a bit the mix… But I won’t work much more into this now.
Thanks A LOT all. It was truly a blast.
You rock!
Some pictures of my family (hey, you guys are pretty much family too now!)
and one with the girlfriend, because behind every decent man there is an awesome woman…
