sTeh B L Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 If you're still working on Italo House tune, maybe introduce a part with a different melody and chords for variety? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the plan for sure! I always get a bit stuck how to progress things though. On 2/20/2021 at 7:20 PM, BaggerMcGuirk said: Nice pads. I got a "Lone" feel from it in parts. Good stuff. Wow I love Lone. Never thought this sounded like him though. Thanks though dude! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBro Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 Really old tune from 15-20 years ago. Taken from tape so you have to excuse the quality. Enjoy!!!!

cern Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I would let the funky bass parts bloom a bit more in the mix. Those pads are very enjoying for my ears. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaggerMcGuirk Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 That formant/degraded sound at the beginning Got Styles is super nice. You've got a real knack for drum machine layering as well. I have a few tracks from that era(Jeskola Buzz!), but I have a feeling they didn't age very well, lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a long time back! I used to record everything to tape even though mp3 was around. I can't even remember why I did that now lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adds flavor. 🙂 I bought a tape deck specifically to try that with a few tracks(also to listen to old tapes). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cryptowen Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 It is interesting to me whenever I hear forum producer tracks from way back in the day, because to my ears they always sound very distinctly like they're from another era. This totally reminds me of something I would have heard on a synth site back in 2005ish. It's cool to see these shifts in cultural taste happening at the level of independent creators. There's some cool sounds in this - the faux acid square bas around a minute & a half in, the super-dry synth vox melody, some other stuff like that. I feel like around the turn of the decade everyone started becoming obsessed with an extremely "vibey"/hazy style, aka everything started getting drenched in echo & fuzz. Sometimes i kinda miss when most trax on music forums were sonically more like this, really computery & clean sounding 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was suprisingly less shitposty than one might initially have expected, offering a response to the analogue fetishism of the post-Analord hobbyist producer scene - distinctly different than the one offered up by vaporwave. Whereas vaporwave consciously embraced what were previously considered "low effort" production techniques (doing small edits to mp3s of existing music) in order to sidestep the demand that any "real" producer ought to own thousands of dollars worth of vintage gear, NDE honoured the sound of the dry digital vst as being just as valid a tonal character as any detuned sqwuak from the 1970s, one fully capable of producing catchy jingles. It represented a conscious decision to stop endlessly comparing yourself to your inspirations, and to make the most out of whatever creative possibilities the current moment offered up to you Edited March 9, 2021 by Cryptowen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaggerMcGuirk Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 That hoover/mentasm type thing and 909 are really catchy. The rest of the elements didn't really jump out at me, but the foundation is solid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sTeh B L Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I listened to "Retro Style (demo)." It was a pretty fun and playful track. I liked the weird growly bass. There's a high pitched synth that comes in around the middle that I think could be turned down, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
