Inaudible

Short entry this week, between getting back from vacation and getting ready to go on a business trip, only had a few hours to throw into this.

My big goal for WeeklyBeats is to stretch myself musically, and right now that means figuring out what other artists are doing so that I can reverse-engineer their tricks and add them to my repertoire. I've set my sights (way too) high to start with, so right now I'm trying to pull apart Yasutaka Nakata's (the producer behind capsule and Perfume) stuff to see if I can replicate his super-tight electro sound. Not quite there yet, but I learned a bunch about Track Stacks, vocoders, and audio buses in Logic!

that main synth is addictive and i like how the vocoder effect plays off it, nice job!

Yeah - those chords.  Dig that bass line man!!

super fun track! Really dig that bass tone.

short but sweet

I was nodding my head a bit up until THAT bassy bit in the middle...then I was totally hooked! Very nice sense of sonic depth and warmth that can be scarce in some chip-inspired music - keep it up!

good work on the bassline!

Good god those chords are so great. Really great energetic job here. If you want me to critique, I'm not the biggest fan of that bridge a little after halfway with the filtered lead, and I think that the melodies aren't as strong as the chords. But I really dig it. Uplifting stuff.

yum! i also love capsule!

This is just awesome. Love that bass line, and how the track as a whole never stops changing. Lots of fantastic ideas in here. Excellent job.
