I don't really know what I did... I was lucky the 9 years old asked for doing some music with me this AM because I don't know what kind of other crap I would have built! Gaspard on the Violon and Flute recorder. Theo did sign a bit over this, I built stuff around... It will be good enough for this week. It is messy (as a djippy track should be), but I think there is something that "...

Feel a bit burned out this week, lots of work, lots of mid-level management challenges, lots of random things needing doing at home. This track didn't even start until friday with a few bloops and blorps.. I kinda wanted big organs with pitch bends.. but I really struggled to find a path through to an actual track. The guitar parts came together ok once I had a play around in drop d, but even...

some more dungeon synth stuff - this one has some unusual timing and disjointed elements - I think this is the first time I've ever used a trumpet synth sound... ever 2026 CC0 Creative Commons Zero (Public Domain)

Played a solo electronic set last night using Octatrack and Sidekick Mixer.  It was fun!  I learned a lot about what I want to do moving forward for solo shows/tour.

I've expanded the minimal acid setup from the last few weeks and included my old Gameboy Advance SP running FMS for metallic percussion. Radical new opportunities!

uh, another quick unmotivated jam. Was actually feeling a little more inspired playing the piano, but just did not have the time where I could play and record it and not have that recording punctuated and interrupted by my children, so I ended up just sampling notes and tracking it. I think there's a better idea here than I ended up actually managing to execute on, but this'll have to do...

A fun simple tune, started whistling in the shower after a run with friends. Somehow our conversation brought up a 10 day silent retreat I've done in the past. What I remember most was thinking how my mind might be like an open canvas to paint anything, having retreated from all the noise of daily life. But that wasn't the case. My mind was more like a loop. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommer...

This is literally some random free form thing I just threw down. I didn't bother with a tempo or metronome, just went by feel to let it breathe. It conjured a memory of my many hours playing the 2003 Pirates of the Caribbean game on XBOX (it was technically Sea Dogs 2, but they slapped on a movie tie-in because capitalism). One of the gameplay elements allowed you to just casually sail around...

Back on the space train! All M8, all original synth patches, no samples. This one strikes me as a clone (I mean takes inspiration from) Point Five, hence the name. I don't know why it's so fun to do these strident synthy space exploration things but it is. Can recommend. If you wanna grab the song file and use any of the synths, go for it! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (B...

I started two different tracks this week, and ended up with this one. The track uses a bunch of trance stuff that I've used in previous tracks, but added a heavy bass and tried to keep the sounds escalating throughout. There are two separate glitched+chopped vocals that overlap at various points, and some random sci-fi radio chatter and spaceship crashing sounds for some atmosphere. Like usua...

I recorded harmonium, drums, and guitar on separate occasions and brought them together in this track to create the feeling of a free-flowing, dreamy jam session. the kind of musical experience I hope to share with other musicians someday. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

A gnarly, rhythmic noise track this week. Harsh and mean. This just me having fun. Feeding a good, albeit a restless groove into cheap compressors and distortion pedals. Along with some nail biting/scratching synth lines. A bit of voice acting. And just destroying sounds for fun. The track feels anxious by design. At least, it makes my skin crawl with its tense and nervous energy. Which is how I f...

Had been working on something and it was becoming evident that I'd be up late getting it done. Then suddenly a hectic lightning storm came through, so decided to record it and made this. I got to it just in time to get the peak of the storm. Maybe I'll get back to and finish the song one in a future week. 2026 CC0 Creative Commons Zero (Public Domain)

› notes‹ notes I think I need to try and start a few days earlier.  The noodles are running low this week. I def spent more time aimlessly wandering the keys trying to find something I liked. Hopefully next week will have a bit more to it and hopefully I’ll eventually like this :o <3 Thanks for stopping by, I hope everyone has a productive week ahead! <3 2026 CC Attribution...

Crazy week as always, I don't have much to say about this one other than I got something done. Hoping my inspiration returns soon so I can feel good about my music again.  Thanks again to all that listen and the kind words, it all helps me get out of this creative funk. On a positive note it's week 41, hard to believe we are in the home stretch! In Lak'ech _mzunguko 2026 Copyri...

This week I accidentally wrote techno, but only sort of accidentally. I started out just deciding to sound design a kick in the M8 using the FMsynth and then messed with the hypersynth in the M8 using 2 separate lines in the table along with a gate pattern to create a bassline that sat weid and changing. Then I got carried away and struggled to mix it. I had a lot of fun with this one though, migh...

Hey Weeklybeaters, this is an old guitar part from my very first album Romantic, but with new lyrics - which is why I am posting it here, as it's kind of a new song now. I call it Entangled and Free and I think I'll eventually merge it with the lyrics from Embraced and Free to make a single longer song since they sort of match. I actually had half of this song for like 4 years but didn&#...
