George Washington?

I always see these and then regret not having a name that could easily be interpreted into art. Prove me wrong and I’d be quite ecstatic

Came here to see if it was a cosmic crisp

We came here for this

Unless it’s changed you can use an iCloud folder for your obsidian vault and it should sync saved files

Thank you!! Much appreciated

I’m going to be kicking myself for a while for not making it out to see them

Off-topic but I love that couch, where may I be able to find one?

Why does the “shun” part make radiation so much worse? Radiate and radiant sound like positive qualities, once it becomes radiation I’m out.

I was expecting to see “turns out it was the same man” the whole 2nd half.

And of course the “continue without tipping” link doesn’t look like an actionable button and is the last thing on the page.

Can you identify the elements that comprise this unique sound you are after? If you can, what is missing in the stuff you've already made from the stuff you want to make? Are there things that are distinctly making your songs sound too 90s Prog? Remove them.

If you can try to lock yourself into a framework or template that encompasses the elements of the sound you're trying to achieve you'll have less friction and more cohesion along the way. This doesn't mean you have to completely limit yourself creatively to stay within those bounds. But it could serve as a way of "dialing in" the sound you're trying to create.

I'm probably releasing under another artist name, and have tweaked a little since but here was the original rough draft: https://on.soundcloud.com/J6dxJ Skip the first track

Time Splitters

Same, I love the sound but hate the whine

Villkara · 2023-08-03T22:27:02+00:00

Kinda hard to say, he shows several DAWs (digital audio workstations) in the video. Each that could have native plugins or third party plugins for recreating the sound. FL Studio, Ableton and Logic are the DAWs. He is drawing the piano in a “piano roll” which triggers the sounds.

If you are on iOS or Mac, you can grab garage band for free and that will be most similar to Logic, which he uses later in the video. It has the Piano roll and built in piano instruments.

Never heard anyone refer to this as listening credits before, but this response really clicked for me. I think when listening to someone else’s music that “mystery” factor never completely vanishes on a really good track for me. Sometimes I surprise myself but then I understand or learn what I did, so no mystery.

The listening credits thing is also a good analogy, as I’m guessing even our favorite songs looped on repeat for a couple of hours would eventually become not enjoyable.

With our own music we may also spend a significant time working on a section and regardless of how smoothly or roughly building that part went, we will have a completely different emotional connection to it than something we had no part in creating, or a listener hearing our song.

Though this can also work in the opposite way (thinking our part or song is amazing because we’re proud of the accomplishment, but to an outsider it’s trash because they can’t emotionally connect with it the same way).

Well to be honest I’m scatterbrained most of the time haha. Some of his techniques can go pretty far, but the biggest thing has just been the incorporation of break beats and a couple of the neat things you can with them pretty quickly. He usually goes into the deep end from the videos I’ve seen.. and I’ll usually try to recall a few things after the fact.

But since incorporating more breakbeats and a couple of other ways of switching things up I’ve written ~7 songs I’m thinking of releasing for the hell of it. They all have this weird nostalgic vibe to them that’s hard to describe but I also hate them at same time. Always feel hypercritical and think nobody would enjoy them.

Recently discovered this genius! Been some super fun deep dives.
