Honest to Mom

By MRDRCAT on October 6, 2024 10:42 pm

I honestly had no idea what I was doing with this one. No plan, no focus, just noises. Parts of it have promise, so this might be something I steal from later if I don't get some mystical inspiration to hammer into shape.

That beat and the hard edged bass commands attention right away. Really like the lead line with the bends going on. That break back to the beat was perfect, and then going into the next section. Lots of texture in here! You may not have had a plan, but your structure is great. Listened a couple times, I enjoyed this one smile

That thumping kick is VERY fun, hahahaha... "No plan just noises" is how I approach my professional life. It sometimes leads to interesting places as well, hahahahaha... Loved the energy in this one!!!

Actually fun tune

Sounds pretty good for having no plan! The bass/kick combo is great and I love the synth lines over the top. There’s a nice variety here. Some really interesting noises you’ve created too!

Oh my goodness you’re making it sound like I knew what I was doing - thank you!! If nothing else, I CAN do texture. Most of it abrasive big_smile

Hee hee we should form the No Plan Posse on the M8 Discord. Don’t ask us for advice, we’re just as lost as you are but without the good sense to stop!

Thanks! In the absense of a plan, I go for satisfying beeps and at least changing stuff up every 8 bars. I figure if I repeat patterns often enough people will interpret it as music. The secret is to bang the rocks together!
