Awesome beat, glad to have witnessed it's creation. However, having both Week 1 and Week 2 beats of my own being made with 1 - 2 hours of deadline remaining, I need to stop watching you make music and make music myself this week lol! That is my challenge to myself this week. In all seriousness though, your laid back approach and interaction with your audience is infectious, time to dust off the old Twitch gear and get back on it myself this week!

Lovely little ditty!  Very warm and inviting.

v i b e s. Love this!

Super chill. The glowy pads, chirpy but laid back percussion, and the noise swells make some nice vibes.

where are you all getting these legit lofi piano tones from?

this is extra chill 11/10 would study again

thanks everyone!

basically it's a piano soundfont where all the piano samples played at half speed (ez to do in FL, just drop the "middle note" of a directwave channel down an octave) - then all the notes are played an octave higher and you get this really nice smokey lo-fi piano sound. added the wavesfactory cassette VST on top for extra lofi!

OH, if you have kontakt then turning the master tune down an octave and playing higher will have the same effect!

hell yes! time to follow back!

srsly guys tho follow me @ twitch.tv/dawabuse
and then follow tweaklab @ twitch.tv/tweaklab

Chill vibe with some bright and gritty tones in there, it all just flows so effortlessly. Makes for some real enjoyable listening

That sharp high-frequency sound that comes in halfway through the track is a great touch. Much respect for the production on this, nice texture going on!

Without words, other than, wow, I love this!

This is just fucking great!

So relaxing.

Extra chilled and very melancholic. And thanks for the production advice. So it seems a lot of the WB crowd is on Fruityloops/FLStudio.

so dope! love it
