Recipe for Misanthropy

By MRDRCAT on July 21, 2024 11:30 pm

I wanted to do something EBM-ish and failed, but hopefully it's okay. I've been playing with some of the new features in the M8's firmware 4 beta - specifically the EQ and new arp control command. I've been trying to keep my levels and arrangement a little less chaotic, and as I worked on this I kept removing more and more instruments from the recipe segments to simplify things. My solution to "what if people get bored?" was to tweak the parts each time so they were a little different.
This is a real recipe (a basic "puppy chow" snack) so feel free to make it.

I always read the text before I listen, and the bulk of it seemed pretty standard. Then I got to the last sentence. Wait what? God, I love your samples and what you do with them, great placement and fun chopping. And unexpected source material!

Music - there was ZERO boredom with this track. Love when everything started to click at around :50, and that pitch bend melodic line at around 1:23 was awesome. Love how it all came together at around 2:00. So much fun.

"If you had friends, you could share". That about killed me.

I was going to comment exactly the same, hahaha... Such a great line =P

And I also agree that no part of this had space for boredom - super fun and energetic, with tons of movement. Very cool concept, too!!!

That is such a great vocal sample to use 😅 I really liked this one, although I found the sidechaining a bit too aggressive
