The more efficient you become with your limbs the longer you can play which automati...

Hello, sorry for the late entry! The theme of this month inspired me to compose a more soulful gospel style and I thought why not play the drums myself because I feel I made a "small step" the last few month in getting more consistent with the timing. I will use it as a backing track in th...

Hello, first of all, thanks to Jorgeelalto for this nice track. I had a lot of fun while mixing. Main focus was to get a well balanced mix with a nice bottom end and controlled high end, so the "most important" part for me was to tame the hats and extra tops with transient designer or dees...

This month I learned the importance of saturation/distortion for drum sounds and bass to make them cut through the mix and to have a certain punch. I think I will be more creative the next time for composing and writing music, there were some good examples this month of breaking the song structure „...

Hello, First of all, thanks to everybody providing the samples, there was some really cool stuff to play with. This time I went back to my musical roots and made an R&B/ Neo Soul tune. I really wanted to add some vocals and I had some ideas for melodies but it was very hard to find the right lyr...

Excuse my language: :oops: Ho ho ho, H*e, thi...
