Thank you Zootman! You're right about the lofi. When I was first making this, I used a rap acapella and it just kinda got stuck in my brain. Glad you enjoyed :)
I appreciate it Cincocent! Any and all criticism is encouraged. Since then, I've been trying to work on balancing tracks and making them flow a bit smoother.
Recording drums is tough. I've been trying to do that for a year now and it's often so frustrating I'm back to midi drums. Or, what I do now, I record drums with 1 mic, then enrich it with midi.
You say mastering but the problem is actually engineering (and playing, haha).
If you have a permanent home setup and a decent space (the bigger your room the better) and sufficient money, and sufficient inputs on your interface, ideally what you want is one kick mic and one snare. More inputs? add 2 room/overhead mics, but now you have to be aware of phasing issues. Also, now your playing better be rock solid.
Anyway, so yeah. I love playing real drums, but I totally understand using samples because it's mostly an exercise in frustration :D
Good luck buddy!!
Thank you for the advice! I'm always afraid to disappoint so that means a lot :)
The drums are a chopped up sample from the Beat Butcher kit, Vol. 5. I'm still trying to learn how to record my own kit in my room. It's a decent environment to record in, I just can't get the mastering down. One day though...
bass guitar par excellence the GOAT ... without doubt this music's roots are coming from the 60's, 70's rnb/soul music ... outstanding ...
thanx for the upload, instant fav and download :-)
fistbump, Danke
There's a back catalog of beats I'm uploading as I remaster them all, along with some new stuff tossed in. If y'all really like the old school content, I can start experimenting with that more!
Some lovely cool jazz sounds. Some of the effects (the ping pong stereo around 0:45) are a bit much for me, and I think it's a bit minimalistic now in some places, but it would be ideal for a nice vocal I think.
Start singing baby :)
I appreciate the feedback BaoBou! On some of my more recent projects, I've been trying to push myself more to sing so hopefully that starts to fill in the gaps :)
