acid1 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Figured I would start my own thread. As a new father, my time is extremely limited and most of my "experiments" are reduced to occasional modular noodling while working from home. First track is a jungle tune I made the other week. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter is still in the newborn state, so I basically sneak sessions in when she's sleeping. Being sleep deprived certainly makes things trickier. TBH, if I ever got to your state as you described I'd feel like I was a successful father. You should be super proud, cheers! #dadgoals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acid1 Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 Eurorack drill/jungle/dnb stuffs Mostly Eloquencer, 1010 Bitbox, Clouds, Dixie2, Belgrad, Erbeverb, Kickall, and 2hp Brst 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoid Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 good work there! i use eloquencer too. nice work on the drum programming and very nice pads and bleepy bits. The sound in general is a bit squashed up which maybe you are going for, but i think if you turned everything down - leave more headroom - and work on the mix more, and then run it through a mastering plugin, it could sound better. but i get it that you are working with a big time limitation, which means you got a lot done in the time you had. well done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Damn! Love when that human voice starts coming in around 1:52. Drums are crazy. DnB is not really my cup of tea, but you got serious skills programming drums. I enjoyed the melodies/counterpoint, especially in the intro before the drums come in. I felt like it was kind of squashed too dynammically, but it seems appropriate for the song and genre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acid1 Posted October 28, 2019 Author Share Posted October 28, 2019 Thank you very much! I agree with the squashiness. Mixing/mastering is my least favorite part of the process. If I throw these together into an ep/lp eventually I will most likely re-address the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperfrequence Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Hi acid1, I really liked your first track especially the final part when the breaks start being cleaner and the melodic pads come in. Keep up the good work ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acid1 Posted November 23, 2019 Author Share Posted November 23, 2019 Featuring "vocals" from my daughter. Sitting her down infront of the Eurorack actually seems to make her stop crying sometimes, its probably just the interesting lights but I like to think she enjoys what I am doing. Acid overtones and jungle undertones. This one got a bit weird. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acid1 Posted March 1, 2020 Author Share Posted March 1, 2020 So here is some braindance!! Recently discovered and been highly inspired by Bogdan Raczynski's productions and methodologies. Most of the new stuff I am working is all tracker composions, written quickly, and trying getting as close to my natural "sound" as I can without being buried in a mountain of gear and perfectionism. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicely done. like this one best of the recent ones. on the spectrum of chaotic to groovy i generally prefer a bit more tilted towards groovy. if you find yourself revisiting this one maybe reinforce the kick with a groovier bass line and remove some elements, but it's all just a matter of taste / what you're going for hope the dadding is going well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
