W01 - NY_EVE2023 (Dirtywave M8)

By ENC_ on January 7, 2024 10:34 am

Painfully out of practice. It was a struggle to finish and I am still not sure it feels complete.  I am glad to be done for now. Might come back on this and work on it more in the future. Happy week 1.

For record keeping, I am going to break down my lists a bit more in depth this year.

Gear used:
- Dirty Wave M8 (Main Writing)
- Roland Juno-6 (played in chords)
- Strymon Flint (Chord processing)

Software:
Ableton
Valhalla Retro verb
Max Tape tool
Ozone 10

Sampled:
- Elektron Rytm mk.i (slice)
- Roland TR-606 (slice)
- Fors Opal (multi-sample)
- Roland TR-09 (slice)
- Xynthesizer (chords)
- Cyclone TT-303 mk.ii (acid multi-sample)

Written in M8 and bounced stems to Ableton for post processing, mixing, and shamastering. Tried some new composition structures and utilized multi-sampling with table slicing. Lead needs transposition to match Ableton file.

File name: Ableton "New Years Eve 2023", M8 "NY_EVE2023"

Maybe too many tongue I think next time I need to work on reduction and refinement. Less is more as they say.

Thanks for the kind words. I've definitely been pulling from the 00s a lot lately. Gotta have a little acid.
