Description : Recently I've been quite into future bass and this my first real try at making it.

Looking forward to some constructive criticism. Hope you enjoy

You'll find the artwork for this track here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaLe8kXM9fg

Update - This is the updated completed version of the song featuring Eshar on the vocals.This is a very experimental track and hopefully you'll be pleasantly surprised by it.

I don't know where else to put this, but I really want to thank the Looperman community for giving my track a chance. It's almost hit 800 plays and it's got so many favorites, it's insane. Thanks to everyone who made this the song it is right now.

    AMAZING TRACK!

    Every second of the track is total eargasm xD

    Loved the LFO automations in the drop. Very perfect!

    I thought the second drop would be identical to the first but I was wrong.
    Second drop was really a twist for me. Nice trap stuff there too!

    Amazing work on vocals. Takes the track to another level.

    The dreamy synths and leads throughout the track were nice. Nice reverb on them.

    Mixing is on point. Great work.

    Any tips for making future bass would be helpful.

    Regards,
    Aviat

    Reply by sheensheep

    Haha Thanks for all your points and I'm glad you really liked the song.

    By the way I only recently found this out, but the bass on the first drop is barely audible on speakers, but can be heard on earphones and headphones. I wonder if that's a problem I need to look out for next time.

    As for tips, I don't really have that many I'm learning as well Haha But for future bass, there's a lot of focus on melody and harmony. Try learning about 7th and 9th chords.

    Yey! Looperman future bass take over. Need a catergory for this sound on looperman. So everybody will know the future bass take over ^-^

    Dope LFO saw with noise! Those 808's goes in hard tho! Congratz dude, your skills are getting there.

    sheensheep
    Reply by sheensheep

    Haha definitely. Future bass is gonna picking up some serious traction soon. I'm glad you liked my song.

    P.S. Just as a tip for anyone else reading this, the saw really isn't an LFO. It's sidechained to silent drums so I can get the rhythm I want easily and I used a utility (basically a volume meter for Ableton) to make it sound cleaner. Just using sidechain sounded a bit messy.

    You cant hear that this is your first try on this genre. It sounds more like an experienced production. You seamlessly fit teh vocals and synths together as a whole and have a lot of variation in the melody and beat. It was and is a joy to listen to and cant give you any hints as it is perfect in my ears! Respect and favoured!

    Love this, sheensheep. The piano keys and Eshars soothing voice brings me to a meditative state then as the beat kicks in.. Im suddenly possessed to do some popping kind of dance with a fierce look on my face. It's crazy! (But you wouldnt want to see it. Hehehe.) Thats the power of your track. I want to share this to my dancer friends and see what they can choreograph out of this. Great track artwork too. It reflects what I experience as I listen to the track.

A song that i heard recency thats uses foley well is > https://soundcloud.com/ujico/ramune. Ignore the weeaboo background, but like the squeaky bed, the glasses clinking together and what i think is a gun are all examples of foley.

    Very cool and interesting piece! I liked the minimalism of it, which kept the loudness of the mix at a good level, while still being able to hear the intricacies. Fun arrangement and sequencing as well! So, can you explain what I should look for which differentiates "future bass" from "trap" or "dubstep?" I've never really figured it out. I like the song a lot, I'd just like to learn more about what makes this genre what it is. Thanks for sharing the piece!

    sheensheep
    Reply by sheensheep

    Thanks I'm glad you liked it. I'll see to keeping my future productions minimal to some extent and intricate. And I'll give you a quick rundown for each genre and give you an artist to look into so you can clearly listen to the difference.

    Dubstep - Loud and dirty (Excision)
    Trap - Minimal and more focus on bass (Troyboi)
    Future Bass - Much more melodic and synth focused (San Holo (my fav artist rn))

    The first drop for the song I made can be considered future bass (more focus on melody and synth) while the second drop is pretty much trap (more focus on bass). Hope this helps clear things up.

You asked in the forum for someone to do spoken word and I have done a few....whereabouts in the track would you use the spoken word?

    This track is a great production. In my opinion, the kick Sounded Good With Its Powerful Feeling, But I Don't Think It Fits With The Beat. The Vocal FX You Used Here And There Don't Really Need To Be In The Beat, But It Still Fits Well & Sounds Good. The Transitions were amazing & really keep me drawn into the beat to want to know what's coming next. Keep putting up more work I'd love to see more tracks from you. Also, if you wouldn't mind checking out my tracks, and leaving some feedback I'd appreciate that.

    kindly share some mixing tips

    sheensheep
    Reply by sheensheep

    Thanks! I appreciate the feedback. In terms of mixing, I did quite a bit of layering. The kick for example, I wanted it to sound dusty, so I found a hip hop type kick with more of a high end and layered it with a low end kick to give it some punch. Also, use volume levels to choose which parts you want to focus on (for this one the dusty kick was the focus so it was louder). I guess training your ear to what you like and think sounds good is the best tip I can give.

With heavy sampling of African chants and sound generated from other tribes, this is production will bring more flavor and enjoyment--it's like Africa to your Ears.

Description : After a major uphill battle completing this song and turning it into what it is now, I feel some amount of satisfaction. It was like reality wanted me to give up or something. It's done... phew... Have updated this almost completely, from repatching the modular bass, playing some guitar parts, adding electric piano and synth lead, redoing and tuning the DW-6000 synth, of course adding my vocals, and mixing and mastering. It really has become pretty new wave, like much of my stuff does recently. Have added the lyrics as well. I am proud and happy with it, and I hope you all enjoy listening! UPDATE... woohoo just broke 1000 plays on this track here at looperman!
***original description***
Hey finally here with a new track! I'm not sure what to call this other than electronic, due to the high tempo. This is the first song finished using my interface which allows direct MIDI control of my modular synthesizer. The mid frequency bass part is all from that patch. There are tracks designed with my Zoom RT-123 drum machine, the microkorg, and the circuit bent KORG DW-6000. Other than that it is just a kick and snare drum sample, and a a quick vocal snippet. So I guess it's fairly minimal in that respect. Would like to hear the Looperman community's thoughts on this song! Thank you for listening
