That's a 96% transparent metal sheet - On the road again which means tons of whistles and hums from the inner workings of equipment, I am barely awake enough to sort in a way that isn't too destructive so hopefully this doesn't come out too bad 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

I've had this idea in the backburner for a little while but it requires a little bit of explanation. Older gamers like myself might recall Tokuhiko Uwabo's soundtrack for the game Phantasy Star II, and to a lesser extent Super Daisenryaku. Both were composed in roughly the same window and released in early 1989. Phantasy Star II in particular was a really transitional game; a flagship RP...

Whew, more last minute low motivation low effort ambient m8 stuff, woohoo. I was <i>so</i> close to just calling it, I mean 39 weeks is pretty impressive, right? But I somehow managed to compel myself to come up with something simple and lowkey but that hopefully still is a bit of a vibe. Hope you have a good week, pals! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Howdy, folks! This was done in one single and very quick 1h20min run on Sunday afternoon shortly before this week's deadline. The feeling of exhaustion has been letting up, so that's nice! Also, I got to participate a bit more in the WB community this past week, commenting in a few songs and joining the WB stream that happens on Discord. Always a fun time. Anyway, I hope y'all enjoy...

I don't want winter to come. No inspiration this week. Just some late Sunday M8 tinkering and that's what came out. But heeyyy, 3/4 of the year done ✓ 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

This was made at a regular beat-makers meetup. There's a sample pack given out and the start and everyone has 3 hours to complete a track, and then we listen to what each other has made when the time's up ⏰ This is what I came up with, a lot of the sound design is done using Minimal Audio's Rift (distortion plugin) 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Let's do some folk metal with Doctor Frog. This one might actually approach Speed in speedwhistle! Picture is from the Stevens Point Sculpture Park. I was a little stuck for a picture, and then I remembered they had something that was very Baga Yaga.... Welcome to Spooky Season! This song has been cooking for about the past month or so, but landed at the perfect time. Doctor Frog has been wan...

Jazzy, atmospheric electronica this week. A high concept track revolving behind the idea of the endless cycles of solar systems dying and regrowing in our ever expanding universe. Often perishing away before they've reached their full potential. And creating different worlds with each new cycle. Not sure if I nailed that idea musically. But it was the seed for this 13 minutes epic track. You...

WELCOME TO SPOOKY SEASON This was actually another shit week and the latest I've ever finished a track and well, it's not really finished, it's a hatchet job, but that's fine, it's fucking spooky season. Bones on the M8, vocals and effects added in Ableton. Feel free to suggest a genre name. It's definitely something industrial, and it's sorta mid-tempo, but it&#...

Beatober day 1: theme was “Night drive”. In the not too distant future, pure analog gambling dens start to crop up as a rebuke of technology that has become all too ubiquitous. The upside, the betting is all backed with hard currency, or occasionally, precious metals and gems. This night you’re not the one playing cards, that’s your sister, you are sitting across the street, in the shadows of an a...

Stream of consciousness stuff. Started with the string trio sketch, started chopping it up, then filled it out with the A/B chord layers to put the original melody in a new context in the second half. Fun! 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

This was my first real attempt after spending a whole week listening to the tracks of NEON LIMINAL and getting completely lost in that kind of sound. I mainly had Angel by Massive Attack somewhere in my head when I started, and some of Tricky , Morcheeba and also Bonobo — not really trying to recreate it, but chasing that same kind of slow, dark weight. That huge deep bass that almost feels physic...

Quick little 90s style Big Beat track made in under 30 mins Sunday night, this year I'm honestly struggling to find the time to make Weekly Beats of the calibre of previous years but I have high hopes for the coming weeks. With that said, this is also what I love about Weekly Beats. Even though I've become time poor with 3 kids, school, netball, dance classes, swimming lessons, day job,...

This week's track ended up with a simple set of chords, an arpeggiated motif and a dub baseline. After setting up the chords, I ended up creating multiple layers of pads that were mixed down to a single bus channel. I then set up the motif line, which was an arpeggiated synth. I then set up a very dub heavy bassline. I finally added some noise beds that were gated to create some rhythmic elem...

sort of 'segue' pieces between levels in the live a/v performance for the suture blue x royb0t segment during glitch n games 2. all clips were selected from each level song and adjusted, tweaked, reversed, stretched, and i really performed all of this in the flow. this is more linear all to the same bpm without any big transition effects (fade to grey sort of big reverb-filter washes). t...

Another crazy week adjust to what life is right now! wrote this song off the back of recording the previous week's song - just came out of nowhere - I have no idea why I went all in on the card game/casino theming on the lyrics, it just kind of worked? recorded and mixed and 'mastered' in about an hour - I am getting very efficient at workflow at this point! Only a single vocal line...

Another one made with M8 tracker on iOS. Started out when I noticed a half-empty box of paper clips that I decided to sample. Turns out it was half full. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Inspired by bright sunny autumn vibes, everything had a wonderful glow today with the yellow and orange leaves.  Went for a walk in the forrest with my son and then came back to finish this one up, encourage everyone to get outside and enjoy some fresh air and get some movement.  Thank you and see you next week. 2026 CC0 Creative Commons Zero (Public Domain)

152 bpm 8-bit uk hc rave breakbeat oldskool jungle tekkno Fast and furious. Found somewhat year-old 32 step bleep bloop uk hardcore melody that I made with M8 internal synths. Added some breakbeats and built all into a full smash. The middle oldskool rave part is very chaotic and it came out a bit too dull, but had no time to do much more with that part. All in all - needed to pull out something o...
