    I swear to God, Spotify...

    what's with the trend of 'rappers' speaking like genuine retarded people? all these squeaky random words like a retard's voice is breaking. Only let this one bump initially as the atmosphere pads were interesting.

    They've got me talking to a "Bhavesh" who responded... Bhavesh has indulged that he cannot help me and has suggested i talk to Spotify Artist. Tempted to cancel my subscription at this point. I will take it to the tweets instead

    The reality of takes and comping

    I used alcohol to help my find my 'feel'. Or help me find how to find it. Or how to be aware of it.

    Me and Fade aren't a 'couple of guys', we are legends. We are Gods. Supreme Eternal Beings. Assholes. Amongst other things.

    Beat This! Competition - December 28-29, 2022

    This was one of my favorite 2 beats in the battle (excluding my own). I reaaally love the main hook bassline. It's so ideal to me in terms of vibes. It has a real 'feel' to it. I was just disappointed that it wasn't made the main and persisting melodic element throughout the beat. I could fuck...

    The reality of takes and comping

    the other thing i hate, is, i'll be playing the keys at a beautiful velocity, then suddenly on REC I'm like hitting them x2 hard or then so soft they don't register it's like -.- I've started opting to set up like a longer loop window, hit record and just play play play until I play something...

    The reality of takes and comping

    I often refer back to this story, but I was shadowing engineer at the studio, and this dad dropped his son and friends there to record their band.

    Some nice beats and nice ideas in there. Some could really do with a better mix. It's been a long process, but it starts to stand out to me now (even listening back to some of my mixes - particularly older ones), you can just hear oh this mix is out of control, or xyz is too loud, abc could...

    Well it happens to me when producing... I'll be playing some melody really cool really easy, hit record, fart through my fingers

    The reality of takes and comping

    yeah i often find, especially if you're not recording at a pro set up, that when i get different takes from an artist, they sound too different and unusable together --- both performancely and sonically. I also find it really shocking when a vocalist, particularly a rapper, comes to record and...

    Music & Marriage How do you manage?

    my first experience of it was a parody someone did of that moment, I thought it sounded extreme (and funny), then when I saw the original I was like "wait, it was hardly an exaggeration!" :LOL:
