There are some nice ideas in there.  Maybe not entirely successful, but listenable anyway.

I think it's kind of cool.

What did you make it with?

I like the kind of pitch shifting echo on the piano chords.

Perfect! Some days I’m really happy holding down the “Ideas but listenable” zone :-)

It is essentially an all-FabFilter joint. I used Twin3 for a last minute fill last week and thought “Man, I haven’t really explored some of these new FabFilter releases.”

So this is a bunch of Twin3’s with Pro-Q on each channel and a Timeless and Pro-R on auxes. The main bus has some Pro-Cs (one for pumping one for glue) and a Volcano for DJ filter sweeps. I thought I’d put Saturn on there, too, but turns out the new “Warm“ options in Pro-Q did enough for me.

The one exception is the piano. Still haven’t found anything I like as much as “Bright Piano” from my JV, so I used it.

I love fab filter.

I have their stuff on basically every track I do.

I haven't really used Twin 3 much although it's a great sounding plugin.

I didn't initially love Timeless, but I'm starting to use it as my go to delay now.

Very cool upbeat club track. Lots of good motion and a slick sound. I suppose you could tighten it up? But overall it's fun to listen to and didn't seem to bog down anywhere.

Nice spooky thing. Sonar sound from the beginning and throughout is killer. The darkened kick is great for the doomy vibe of the song. Piano feels like a shaft of light coming through a hole in the concrete ceiling, and I really like the friction between the pitch rise on the piano and the sonar when it kicks back in

For my personal taste, I hope you revisit these ideas with a little extra dirt

Ditto. Stock plugins have gotten so good that, IMHO, the only reason to buy something else is for an improved interface. And they’re the only people who do interfaces so good that they’re worth paying for (well… runner up goes to goodhertz. They’re doing interesting things in UI, just not quite as dialed in).

I’m a Logic guy, so my usual goto for virtual analog is the ES2. And I really love that thing. But talk about different philosophies. It (like Serum or Hive or any of those megasynths) is so knob-per-function and overwhelming. Twin 3, in addition to being fantastic sounding with particularly good unison and extremely flexible filters, just gets out of your way. A simple patch looks simple. A complex one is at least understandable. It grows as the patch does, and I really appreciate that.

I literally got it in a package because it was cheaper with it. I thought I’d never use it (a lot like Twin, actually). But its flexibility has really won me over. Mutitap? Tape? BBD? Weird echo stuff? All of it somehow feels right at home in Timeless.

Thanks so much! It’s so easy to stress over this stuff. A big benefit of Weekly Beats is it gives me an excuse to say “eff it” and hit “publish”.

That‘s my favorite part too :-)

I so wanted to run at least the bass and the floopy lead through my OBNE Fault. I can picture the settings I’d use. But just ran out of time to deal with external FX. Maybe after WB I’ll be able to go back for some remixes.

Or actually, while I’m thinking about it, all my stuff is CC BY-NC. If anyone would want to do their own takes, please consider this an open invitation!
