Chopping Exercise

Hey Y'all,

Had some fun putting this track together while practicing some vocal chopping in Ableton! Let me know what you think smile

Best,

Nick

At first I was like, yeah, this is a cool chopping exercise…and then the percussion hit at :38 and shit got real. That subtle string line is a great addition. Wow. Really love how this track develops, and the overall vibe.

Really like the vocal harmonies you selected for chopping here. Agree with Paisleyfrog too about how the percussion kicks this up to really cool vibe. Nifty modulation effects on the outro.

The drums on this track a sick. The sound design on the like reversed cymbal/snare type sound... And the violin was a super nice touch. 

Ooof the rhythm and just the overall sound of that chop was an instant hook.  The beat just completed it.  The drum fx and accents are perfect for this.  Had a bit of a Bon Iver feel too.  Well done!
