Phases

By jimmac on September 14, 2024 11:23 am

Feeling bad about my low effort last week, I polished this one a fair bit more. Somehow the M8 is just breaks and bass for me, but starting 4.0 I venture into ARPs a fair deal.

I still didn't get very far in my attempts at music theory or finding a way to come up with good progressions I enjoy listening to (Ochre, Ivar Tryti), but I am happy I don't have to live in the world of rhythm only. So having this transposition based workflow that M8 provides is a godsend to me. Having said that, the structure of the song is a bit backwards as the simpler basslines are at the end and the more complex stuff opens.

Having said that, next week is totally a techno track time.

Love the sound of that chordy lead and the progression ride it takes us on.  Those lil gated arps sound extra sweet with the bassline breakdown.  Oooh and the mono leads toward the end \m/

The transitions in this track are very cool.  The pitch down effect at 1:03 is awesome.  I'm definitely going to steal that trick.  (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧
