Coffee magic

By void_gate on January 11, 2026 1:00 pm

I was wandering what to make this morning and realized I'm making coffee and started thinking how integral the ritual of grinding the coffee before grinding some code has become for me. So I recorded some samples and tried to put the experience of my morning into something melodic. M8+nanoKEYFold.

Very creative sampling! Nice job, man!

thanks!

At the very start it sounded like a number station (which I love) and the slightly dissonant bell sound is super cool - is that a coffee-making sample? Because I've made a lot of coffee and can't place it.

Thanks.
The bell is an fm sound from M8.

Very cool! My in-laws were in town and tried out our espresso machine. We discussed how using it is like a ritual haha. You song captures that essence. Well done!

oh I never knew about the fold! Such a neat companion to the M8

Cool creative exercise with the samples! Inspiring

Thanks, same here! I realised that before coffee I just scroll and read stuff at work, but as soon I get that first sip I start to churn out code, comments, messages. You can here my keyboard actually in the mix. Used it in the drum track.
