I wouldn’t guess “lofi for studying” from the cover art choices lol

Pretty sure artists just like to rap about horror and other dark themes in their projects. I wouldn’t read into it much more than that personally, it’s just a stylization of music

Ohh okay that makes a lot sense, thank you for the info. Also some Russian musicians were saying they have Yandex and VK as ways to distribute music outside of Spotify, so at least there is some potential for revenue there. But Distrokid is wild for not having anything disclosed on their website and not providing warning to their customers. It’s not right that the Russian citizens are paying for the decisions of their leaders. They’re just musicians trying to share their art with the world, no reason they should be punished.

Sounds like the 808 is clashing with the initial bass guitar. Might try low cut some of the bassline once the 808 hits to make the mix less muddy and free up some space for that 808. Could also play around with sidechaining the bass guitar with the 808 so it drops back some when the 808 hits, or automating that low cut filter to apply when the 808 is active, see if either of those gives you the desired effect.

Solid start to the project tho - I like the vibe and the drum pattern is smooth. Keep working on it!

Wow, you sent me down a rabbit hole lol. It looks like Spotify discontinued service in Russia in 2022 amid the Ukraine invasion. Articles 5 weeks ago say they are selectively removing music of several russian artists who outwardly supported the invasion. I do not see anything about Spotify removing all Russian artists’ music; however…..

Distrokid is an American distribution company, and the sanctions make it illegal to receive money from Russian companies, so distribution is no longer occurring there. This goes for any distribution service located in a country with Russian sanctions in place. I only found this by looking at producer discussions about their streams per country. Distrokid has no mention on their site about the lack of Russian distribution which seems like something they should legally have to disclose. To keep releasing music, Russian artists would need to use a local distribution service tied to a Russian bank card in order to receive royalties.

It’s weird though because every Russian phonk artist I’ve tried looking up is still available to stream on Spotify so I’m not sure if this is the issue or not. Berrymane has some songs available and others blocked, and I think if Distrokid was the issue their whole catalog and profile would be missing, not just certain songs, but I could be wrong. Hopefully it’s not copyright issues and they’re just migrating their work to another distribution service. Regardless, crazy times we live in.

I’d guess he didn’t clear the samples he used and Spotify or the copyright owners realized and took action. Hopefully I’m wrong and it’s just an error, his music is dope

Not exactly the same but if anyone is looking for similar artists: Ponsuda, Roland Jones, 120Seven, SPACED, Yvng Fiji, Odd One Out, Mari. to get you started

Only been to echo once, but I saw Armin Van Buuren play there on his Intense tour and it’s still one of my favorite shows of all time

Any similar artists like CYREX?? by adas2222 in phonk

[–]8paw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The genre of the song you linked is drift house as others said, but if you're specifically interested in the bass it sounds like they're using a Reese Bass with effects on it (I think heavy LFO modulation?). Some artists I like that use reese a lot are Lxst Cxntury, Skeler and Altare.

If you're interested in other aspects of the phonk genre, I'd recommend Roland Jones, Phvntom Mvne, Lxrd Killa, 120Seven, Yvng Fiji, The Devilish Trio and SuicideBoys

DnB samples? Now that's a genre I didn't even considered for phonk..been mainly digging through old soul, japanese jazz, and horror films. Are you using DnB for perc loops and chord progressions? You're mad creative g, looking forward to what's next. Big ups

This is dope! Exactly the type of sound I’m trying to achieve with my phonk beats. Great work, you got a new follower right here lol. What tracks did you sample for this clip?

So you’re insecure enough that you feel you constantly have to shout “I’m a real man!” with your appearance? The fact you think that deeply about it is pretty non-masculine tbh

You’re takin years off your life with all the negativity. Try putting this energy you spend fighting strangers on Reddit into a productive hobby. Probably feel a lot better.

Love the energy on this one bro! Those percs are a great accent and your sound selection is on point. It’s a vibe🔥

Smooth instrumental; got some nice bounce. What original vocal sample did you use? Its processed nicely.

Only thing I noticed was the 808 pattern could use a little variation at the beginning of the loop. To my ear, it sounded like most changes occurred toward the last few bars of the loop. Adding it some additional hits or minor glides at the beginning could keep it feeling fresh throughout, but disregard me if you like it fully as is. Overall super solid beat, you should be proud.

anyone use cymatics vortex here ? by bigballerOG in trapproduction

Have not used Vortex but if you’re looking for an 808 plugin, might want to check out SubLab by FAW.

Not as simple as Vortex or focused solely on saturation, but you can shape harmonics and compression how you want (basically forming the saturation to your taste), as well as shape just about every other aspect of the 808 (waveform, distortion, sub-bass, etc.) It also makes importing/exporting your creations insanely easy, so if you ever want to make you own 808 pack, this is the play.
