AFTER ESS

By naught101 on April 21, 2024 10:34 am

No-effort this week. Made a pretty big life decision that I've got very mixed feelings about, and then went bush of a few days, so haven't had the headspace or energy to make something.

This track was originally written in 2021, using ideas (and some of the instruments, maybe?) from Ess Mattisson's WERTSTOFFE one-track m8 project (which is available as a bundle on the m8 discord, and well worth exploring).

It's all written using a single (monophonic) track on the m8. Anything that sounds layered is just the delay/reverb.

It sounds very restrained, which makes sense on just one track, but you populated it well

Thanks! I looked up your tune - if that's all mono I'm super impressed, how did you get the bass to sound through the kicks like that?

Oh sorry that was really misleading, the compo was named monorave because it was made using a wavetable sample called monowave x_X then I thought I'd do a mono monowave.wav part at the end, it's only a single channel after 3:46 x_X
