Doing work while I listen to WB and this is getting me too HYPE!  What devices/software do you use to make these gems?

The piano is so freaking classic I almost died.

Hey, thanks yes I'm pleased with how turned out, I'm going to do some more work on it to see what I can develop it into. Set up is pretty basic at the moment, essentially Ableton 10 and Push. I pretty much use the instruments and FX inside that at the moment (I moved from an old laptop and didn't have a lot of my set up transferred). I'll use a bunch of samples and then manipulate them via Sampler, Drum Rack, etc. I spend a reasonable amount of time sorting through those, so when I start working on ideas I just chuck them in and try and get a vibe going.

I also wonder if you use premade loops/grooves, or are you programming all this goodness. Obviously your acapella collection is full of gems!

Also, killer piano on this!!!

It's a mix, often I'll throw some loops together to get a groove going then strip out and replace the drums and percussion (often use groove copy in Ableton to get a template) then play and manipulate the samples

Cool GiFs
