Hello! Here's my page for... dropping whatever lazy tracks I make or play! Feel free to take/edit/add onto any of these for fun
Click on a title to expand it/listen to the track/learn about it!
Here's a five second loop... that loops! I made this in like five mintues. I really don't have much to speak about it.
Here's a TEN second loop... that loops! This is a direct sequel to the last one where I spend slightly more time on it. I am mildly proud of the listening effect, that works for me at least, where upon a first listen, you follow the piccolo line as the melody, but leading up to the loop and after the loop, your brain follows the brass line that started four beats before it ends! That was a horrible explanation, but maybe you know what I mean?
I think I wrote this after our marching season had ended. I get sort of emotional about these things, I think lol. I tried to stick to a mostly specific instrument grouping that most modern marching bands use, at least below the collegete/drum corp levels.
Actually, I remember exactly what I was doing while I made this! I was in voicechat with some school friends, and was streaming me throwing this together, wholy intending the finished product to be a joke. Which it is lol. Other notes.... I made the chaotic sections purely through clicking and smashing my keyboard. I think there's some instruments that show up here that are really very nice and do work well together! I should revisit those specific presets sometime, I think. The ending, nicer section, was actually intended in my mind to go on for much longer, but I got bored. Maybe I'll finish it someday? You could if you want!
I was very, very bored. I think my want for something to happen kind of reflected in here. It's not my favorite, but I think it keeps a consise feel to it. There's a bit that I'm happy with in the back, sort of that very virbato drone sounding thing, the second or third instrument to join in before the drums.
I think I could have done a whole lot more with this one. I really should have pushed the epic-type feel I was going for. Overall, not my finest selection of instruments. I do like the use of vocal preset in the back
I found another version I made! I think it can flip either way on whether or not this is any sort of improvement haha
This is my overall proudest peice. I think I spent a few days getting this one right? I actually catelogued each iteration from it's start, which I'll link below here. I was going for a very dreamy feel. I really enjoy the bells throughout the song as well as the strings. Pretty happy with how it turned out! There's a bit near the end where the song goes silent, almost like a buffer sort of effect, that I had spent a good minute trying to get right.
Oh, actually, there's this apreggio that I have in the back here, that I've ALWAYS had the idea for using in something. I had first thought of it in my freshmen year piano course while I was procrastinating, not that the idea itself is groundbreaking in the SLIGHTEST. I enjoy it though! Sometimes simple things give the best effect for a certain feeling.
I really didn't change much from the first iteratiion from second, just mostly got volumes down, and extended it a bit. The ending certaintly changed from this point to the end product.
Alright, here's where the bells and such come in! I was pretty content with it right here, and actually almost left it like this, but I thought I could probably take it that much further, which is what I did. There's a weird part in the middle where the volume goes down, and I forgot how I fixed that, but I think that may be what made me go "Yknow what, you can do a better job with this."
Here's the finished product! I mostly just adjusted what I needed to, added stuff where I thought I could push an effect or part, ect. I'm pretty happy with it! There's this music box sounding preset I added with the bell parts that I feel really improved the feeling. Same with some other background stuff.
Dissapointment and lack of inspiration in a song. I really, really enjoy 3/4 waltz., though this came out as a 6/8 instead lol. I think waltz' gives such a cool feeling! Unfortunately I'm not made for writing that. I was just very, very uninspired, and let this one be.
Oh, what's this??? I just discovered another rendition. I must have taken a crack at it again. I think the trumpet bit improved in sound, but I can't say this is a whole lot better as a whole.
Oh my gosh. I'm just as suprised as you are. I'm literally discovering these as we speak. I guess this one is a bit better...? Still questionable. Holy wall of channels.
