When I go months and months without anything really great happening I know it's generally time to work on skills instead. So I pick up an instrument. In my case I tend to play guitar and recently started learning the bass. I've been working 50 hours a week since Sept and have been having some other issues that have put a damper on creativity. I figure it's a good time to practice instead of noodling. If I'm noodling I can get something that sounds good, when I practice I tend to sound shit because I'm trying to learn something.

I have no fucking clue why that beat works, it doesn't make any sense to me because I don't know my rythm theory very well, this is probably me accidentally doing compound times or stuff like that, I keep analysing all of it and I still cannot figure out why this still sounds correct. It shouldn't
Anyway, enjoy:
My music alias is now "Synths Whine And Cheese".
The beat sounds like it fits a sort of latin/world trope in percussion, where the bass drum (or a low tom) strikes on every 1 in each 4/4 measure, and a high tom or some other percussion sound changes from 4 to 3 every measure, like this:
(Bassdrum: X, 2nd perc: O)
X - - O X - O - X - - O X - O -
It has a very unique swing that stands out in a sea of other 4/4 rhythms, but it works and you used it well. I can also tell there's just a slight bit of misalignment with the hats, but it's nothing too extreme and it works as well.

Love the sounds in your track 747music. Nice to hear something a bit darker!
This is a bit rough around the edges but I have just started it today. I've tried to make something with a bit more space in the arrangement for once. I really should learn how to embed the soundcloud player as well if anybody cares to give me a hint?!

Its that time of the month again!!
oh, this thread only had 2 post since last month
Anyway, this month's upload is my favorite so far I poored my heart into it and ACTUALLY learned what a chord progression is and used it on purpose.
(Only ever probably did those by accident before)
This is a I to III in B flat aeolian, sounds nice and esoteric, take a load of this:

TFB convinced me after mentioning how the unmastered, unfinished bits/outtake version of my drone record sums up well a lot of the frustration and pain I've been feeling lately, so I think I've finally come to terms with just releasing that one as-is soon. I don't care if it's good or not. I don't care that it uses the Twin Peaks atomic bomb countdown which might not have been sampled yet as an opener to a record knowing it may not do that sample justice.
I was looking for people who play strings maybe willing to help me with one track though beforehand as well as reshaping a section as there's a new piece of music I need to record a little different than what was meant to go in there stemming from a whole bunch of absurdity.

Went paranoid over a ridiculous pattern on my R-100 last night where the syncopation was such that a single loop made Little by Little by Radiohead sound straightforward in comparison.

Finally bought a bass and've been obsessed w/ it ... I formerly lived with a housemate who let me use hers (the house in which I started recording as a solo project), and since I moved a year back I haven't had bass access. No longer a problem.
Finished this song, TownCrier:
https://soundcloud.com/thai-bluejeans-s ... /towncrierI've been interested in fucking w/ time sigs lately -- this one does not use the same time signature two measures in a row, but alternates between 3/4, 4/4, and 5/4 in different patterns depending on the part of the song.
The lyrics are somewhat inspired by
Johnny Got His Gun, which is a top three novel for me.
