As One (beatmakers Comp Round 3) - Sprawl

Description : firstly, massive props to Coney. mate, you are the first to welcome me to the site, and i must say, so far, it's been great.

this beat was a real challenge which i quite enjoyed. as a few ppl have mentioned the loops are not all in key so incorporating 5 of them into one tune was a difficult task... i mainly focused on using the two piano loops (mostly PianoSounds loop) . i also aimed at giving the tune as much variety as i could, so automation and panning etc was the key.

THE LOOPS I USED ARE AS FOLLOWS:

- PIANO LOOP (this loop is the core melody of the tune. i play it raw in the hook, but in verse space and bridge it is automated with a filter effect)
- PIANO LOOP 2 (i sliced this loop up and used it in the hook mainly. u should hear a reversed piano sound every 4th beat. i also used it as a stab)
- ORCHESTRA LOOP (i used a small snippet out of this loop, reversed it added some delay and used it as a rise and fall at the end of 8bar section... u can hear this at about 1:35)
- STRINGS LOOP (i made 4 slices of this loop, in particular the bits when only the cello was playing, then i added a gating filter effect to make it sound as though it was arpped, you can hear this sound in the hook, it slowly comes in at 0:30 and increases in volume. it doesn't sound like strings at all)
- SYNTH LOOP 2 (this loop was used sparingly, small stabs of it are just noticeable in the hook, but u can deffs hear it in the outro)

LOOPS AND SOUNDS I ADDED:

- SAX (i cut up a loop from slap johnson and put it in the hook)
- STRINGS (i sequenced some long notes of slow violin strings and some orchestral brass in the hook to give it some atmosphere)
- HARPSICHORD PIANO (i sequenced a piano line that plays at the end of the 16bar first verse)
- PADS (i sequenced a synth pad that layers under the piano in after the hook, it's low velocity but adds some background atmosphere to make the track sound more full)
- BEATS (i organized the beats with as much variety as i could. a lot of panning)
- GUITAR (i played a few guitar licks in the verse space and bridge, again i think it gives it some more variety. i also reversed a guitar note, which plays every now and then)

that's basically it. i hope you all enjoy it, this tune grows on you so give it a few listens LOL....

Description : melodic simple type beat. Hope you enjoy. Free download on this one.

Description : I made this for fun and used a track I found on this site that I liked.

Description : I wanted to produce something as close to conventional trap as I could, while still keeping the Mindway sound. The verses and bridge are as close to rapping as I will probably ever get, and using 808s is kinda growing on me. Maybe could be better, but I am liking where it is.

Description : This is a complete redo of a Jazz track I wrote a while ago and uploaded earlier this year. I attempted to remaster the original, and it bit me. So I bit back and here's the result. Jazz with a Latin flair. For those interested, I mastered this using the HUM JAAL mastering limiter. I'm loving that BEAST! Take a listen and share your thoughts Enjoy!

Description : What up LM family, next up is a track we put together last week, and one of my current favs. I got the stems from Nea Mera's remix of 'Make Em Feel This' and made some dope samples that really accent this track. He said it's hard for him to hear everything that I did with his stems, but I also know that LM is full of audiophiles who will pick out everything in a heartbeat. So Remember, this was your suggestion, Nea Mera LOL. I remembered to list the personel this
