Plarkreluke Banloboh Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Next level shiznits. That gated reverb 'pock' snare really focuses the mind in a locked state - great idea. Can't decide if that's my favourite sound or the high pitched cascading bleeps or the occasional saw tooth bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 I posted some new escape the loops on my bc recently https://escapetheloops.bandcamp.com/album/exercises-in-nothing unlike the previous ep, this one is not-so-serious naive electronica and idm for 5-year-olds, cos this is what I end up with if I jam with no particular idea in mind, but I quite like it anyway. if anyone happens to listen, curious to know which track you like the most so I can upload it to my soundcloud to represent the album. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chronical Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 why are the track titles WATMM memes? Do you identify with your music that little? Not trying to be a dick, that just weirds me öut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the whole album is sort of a tongue-in-cheek naive electronica as opposed to my previous release, so I just wanted to have some fun. Not everything has to have an underlying personal masonic meaning which I adhere to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have a crescendo for me, a high point of emotions so to speak. I really like the presentation though. Reminded me of this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool! I like the R2D2 remixing Basic Channel style. Nice groovy beats. Next time, try giving it the dubs as well. Basic Channel style! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been told this a couple of times already in fact, something to work on. The video you linked is fucking fire man. I thoroughly enjoyed it and want more. Who's this artist?

goDel Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 interesting point. perhaps you're more of a surgeon kind of producer, if you know what i mean. that embrace the loops track was a pure beats fest. with a bit of basic channel on top. (i'm a fan of basic channel, so i always want moar!!) so, what i'm getting at is you need to follow your heart on this one. some people want more melodies. if that's closer to your heart as well, you should work in it. but if it's not, take an example to surgeon. or current autechre.

I guess chronical was referring more to the arrangement / overall structure of the track which I do find very important. Most of my output is a little all over the place in hopes of escaping the loops, and it'd be nice to have a more structured approach. I appreciate that you liked that track, I purposefully made it minimalistic and claustrophobic because of the experience I had. What do you mean by "giving it the dubs"?

goDel Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 listen to basic channel, or rhythm & sound. those tracks are always shifting and changing in a very minimalistic way. playing with the reverbs and all that. changing accents. thing about basic channel is they can get away with making tracks going for 20 mins. and somehow they keep it interesting.

goDel Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 octagon might be a better example. first 5 mins is a build up. adding the different ingredients. you can skip past that. after those first 5 mins, all the ingredients are basically there and the rest of the track it's like a bubbling bath of shifts and changes. different accents. and the dubs is mostly about playing with reverbs. ;) your beats were in a way similarly shifting and changing. but the rest wasn't really. i guess my "giving it the dubs" was about having the rest of the track also take part in these shifts and changes. similarly to the way you were playing around with the beats. (not asking you to do a basic channel trak btw) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
