When You're Not In The Beat-making Mood
Hey All, A couple weeks ago I was riding what seemed like a creative peak. Making beats every night, sampling in unique ways and using a variety of my musical skills, techniques, and resources to make music that was fun for me. This was quickly followed by a couple weeks of next to no... -
Mistaken Identiy - Funk/Nu-Disco
I've recently started a "Beat-Blog" on Instagram. Through my daily jams if I come up with something somewhat cool, I'll film a little video for it and post. I've been having a lot of fun figuring out camera angles, camera setting, lighting, and of course how TF to actually edit videos lol...- BiggChev

Maschine + Logic 3-Peat || Ambient Lo-Fi
Went for the hat trick this weekend! Logic was used a bit more extensively for this one. Specifically, it was used for the FX automation and bus processing. Again, most everything was written in Maschine Plus standalone mode. There are about 3 different FM8 patches on here. I know it's been... -
Maschine Plus - Grim/Dark Rap Beat
I've been listening to a lot of mid-2000s rap, particularly the mixtape stuff lately. Coupled with @Dusty B inspiring me to tap into my Rock/Metal roots, I thought I'd give a go at trying to make one of those Grim/Dark mixtape style beats from that era where 8 rappers would jump on a track and... -
Chill/Lofi Maschine Plus Beat
Picked up the Maschine Plus a couple nights ago. Took some time to get re-familiarized with the full sized Maschine (I've been on the Mikro MK3 since summer 2018). Also spent some time getting the external MIDI synths setup and creating a project template inside Maschine. The USB mixer I have... -
Dark Boom Bap Beat
Here's a quick little throw-away beat from earlier tonight. Got to digging through some records and found two cool chops that I thought would fit well together. Some strings/horns and flutes. Chopped, stretched and tuned the chops. Added some pianos, NI Glaze and bass. Nothing special, but... -
Chill Hip-Hop Beat
Hey All, Between work and travel, I haven't had much time for music. Carved out the day for myself today, and came up with a short, but sweet, chill beat. Started with a simple piano melody in Logic Pro. Harmonized with some chord extensions in the left hand. Layered sounds and fleshed out... -
DAW + MPC 1000 Workflow
Hey All, I just posted a new beat in the Showcase section and started to explain the process I've been using recently to make beats. Turned out way longer than I expected, and believe it would be better suited for this section instead. Cheers, Having lots of fun chopping, writing, and... -
MPC1000 || Funky Boom Bap
Having lots of fun chopping, writing, and arranging inside the MPC 1000! I've come across a system that keeps the creativity moving forward with defined stages in the writing/productions process. Maybe it'll prove useful for others so I'll briefly outline it below: Step 1 - Ideation &... -
MPC Boom Bap Beat
Hey All, Been a while... ...I've been working on a funk/house record (that should hopefully be done by year's end). Took a break from all the "4 on-the-floor" and got back to my hip-hop roots. Having lots of fun writing entire on the MPC 1000. I started with a simple Horns and Rhodes loop I... -
Dinner Party || Chill, Jazzy, Lo-fi Beat
Hey All, For the Canadians on here...happy thanksgiving! Would love to borrow your ears and glean some feedback on this tune. Initially idea sketched out in Maschine. Final arrangement, mix and horn sounds are from Logic Pro. Bass and guitar was played by myself. Cheers,- BiggChev

Greetings!
Hi All, Chevy here from Toronto, Ontario. I go by BiggChev and more recently, adopted the pseudonym of Stormbourne specifically for my newer, laidback/lofi type beats. Looking forward to connecting with members of the community and hearing some great music...- BiggChev
