Finish a one-man-metal-EP that I started early 2019 (I'll probably release the tunes as a WeeklyBeat each week that I "finish" one, hoping the project gives me the push to finalise these tracks and release them unto the world. It's kind of a follow up to CyberFunk Radio!)

Make some beats for my Twitch channel as an excuse to experiment, also release some YouTube videos mainly video game related and music project file deep diving etc, I also plan to stream my WeeklyBeat sessions on Twitch whenever possible! https://twitch.tv/tweaklab

Get better at live instruments! Slap the bass. I finally bought myself a bass. Epic. And, replaced the 8-string with a 7-string so I'll be playing a lot of metal riffage again.

I'd love to collaborate more this year, but work and kids will be a challenge to get all of these things done... which is why I love WeeklyBeats so much, it seems to just happen anyway wink

YES!!! I've checked on the site a few times this month, so excited to see the 2K20 logo (which looks fantastic by the way!) on Christmas morning. Merry Christmas all, so excited to have another round with you all. Until then, I had some crazy last minute music stuff happen in the last quarter of 2019 - a new series of Fat Pizza (a cult classic TV show in Australia) and they ended up using more than 25 tunes that I've made, 90% or more of which were WeeklyBeats at one point lol you can check out the album here!

I was even permitted to remix the "Chicks" track from the 2003 Fat Pizza movie which was a heap of fun and they managed to squeeze it into the final episode. Clip here!

I concur. I have learned more about production and my own road blocks since WB2012 and enjoy it every year we come back for more. I'd be down for 2020 (as per my last WeeklyBeat if anyone cares to listen! the vocals are literally "Just another week, just another beat, see you all in 2020.")

I was reading over my WB2012/2014/2016 posts and tracks / comments and it's like a blog of my life. I became a father during WB. I learned how to enjoy my job and stop getting stuck on music projects that had to be "perfect" so I could push that energy onto the next track rather than getting deflated stuck on an old one. I've had music in TV shows, a movie, and even joined the GoldenEye: Source team as a music producer/remixer all thanks to the confidence (and music) WeeklyBeats has enabled me to produce. I got married. I moved house twice. I picked up guitar for the first time in 2014 and have never looked back. It's such a time capsule!

WB is a fantastic community and we really should try and keep some sort of hub in the form of a Facebook group where we can all post our new tracks / EPs / ideas, seek out potential collabs etc. I recently joined a Propellerhead Reason Users group and the tips and tricks people post has helped me gain so many little know hows in the last 3 months so I can just imagine what a WeeklyBeats community fuelled group would be like!

See you all in 2020 smile I'll be working on a few things in 2019 though so keep an eye out on my bandcamp, spotify etc!

Anyone else in this zone?  (Oooorrr just me?!)

I've made it through the whole year (so far) but looks like we dropped from 280 to 90 over the year lol so I'm sure you're not alone! Stoked you're back for a couple of tunes regardless smile I'm looking forward to my year off from WeeklyBeats for a change, now that I've spent some time and a few $ investing in my music from a more business level I'm keen to start work on a serious EP/Album for 2019 now that I can release my own stuff "officially"! Colab again? hahaha smile

Hey lovely people, can I possibly get an upload link as I accidentally selected my .WAV instead of .mp3 and was 7 secs late to upload lololol thanks smile (I hit submit with seconds to go but the file was still uploading)

Our internet has been slow all weekend, my tune took longer than usual to upload on 100/40 NBN and it finished 10 secs after the deadline lolol pretty please? smile it even said it was successful! That's what I get for exporting with 2 minutes to go.

Hey Aday the link doesn't seem to work (have only just gotten my PC all setup due to work lol, it probably expired or something) I have my rough WIP from Week 26 that I can upload if it's still possible and am starting a Week 27 tune tonight. Thanks either way smile


Yo, those links are only valid for 48 hours after generated so the old one is long gone,
Try this one *26^ again , hurry smile

Thanks dude! Yeah guilty as charged, but to keep the WeeklyBeats spirit I've already made and uploaded Week 27's tune before even getting this URL so my conscience is a bit more clear haha. Thanks again! Now I can stop flipping out about breaking my streak due to moving house.

Hey all! I haven't had a chance to upload due to moving house over the weekend. My PC is still all over the floor with no desk but will be assembled after work. Any chance I can still get an UL?

Hope the house move went well, https://weeklybeats.com/music/upload?ha … 470a908836

A few late nights (and one all nighter getting the old house clean while listening to the DOOM 2016 OST and impersonating Fireman Sam characters will inspire something for next week haha) new place is way bigger and more room for the fam and music making! Thanks for the link and for asking.
