I get that as an adult a lot of times we have to accept reality and that "that's just the way things are."  But really things are the way they are because people chose to make it that way, and a lot of times the people who made those decisions don't have most of our best interests at heart.  As an American I feel an ever increasing sense of frustration and disgust ove...

Was initially trialling out some rap to go over this to make it fit a more trip-hop sound, but other listeners and myself settled on just the instrumental beat feeling way better. But, thank you to Endojo and his friend for sending me stems to work with. I’ll probably find a different track to make it work with. Idk about y’all, but this one feels a little different for me! It’s brighter, with a b...

week 39 goal at start 9/25: Make something fast because I'm out of time. end notes 9/25 Idk what to say. I just made this in 32min. Could've been worse. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Hi everyone :) I'm still tackling the "less is more" approach, trying to keep things simple without making the track sound empty. So far, it seems like good sound selection and layering is probably the way to go for me, rather than trying to fix everything with processing later on. Here's my entry for this week. Hope you like it! :) Cheers KaZu P.S. I'm thankful for any co...

The people that did listen to last week track will find the track familiar... But I am lucky that Endojo did layer some vocals over it, so it was (kind of) a week off for me! Rock! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

This one has vexed me... To be clear, I *am* happy with the result. I wanted to make a darker, midtempo-style, track and I think I got close to that mark, but the process... ooft. I'm uploading it now, on Friday night, because I'm going to go crazy if I keep banging my head against this with a deadline due. There's changes I want to make, things I want to refine and experiment with...

Aim this week was just to get something done fast - this took under an hour. This is based around an underwater recording in Zadar, Croatia, by Flo Wilson. More process notes on my blog, as always. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

I had to turn in my homework early this week due to some family commitments. Speaking of family, this is something of a cousin of my week 38 submission. Once again I went with funk break based d&b, and leaned heavy on the big Skywaves synth melodies. This one is more of a flat roller though, with a cheeky r&b sample that was baby oil ready. My title was supposed to be a nod to the break so...

A little bit early, but I was in the mood to make a town theme. Time Signature: 4/4 Key Signature: Eb Major/C Minor, E Major/C# Minor Tempo: 64 Made using 1x LSDJ. Exported using GB-Presenter. 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

another speed trash max patch! I AM THE BEAST MOST WEAKLY OF ALL WEEKLY BEASTS! (<-say wut now? (i dunno, sounded catchy in my head so i said it, now i regret it)) it has gotten to the point where i have trouble explaining the chaotic max patching i do here on weeklybeats... but maybe this one will be least of all understandable, so it requires explanation somehow, anyways: there's a &#039...

Still not feeling great about the music I make, but this was at least a little bit of fun to make. It's a kinda irritatingly sombre hardcore breakbeat rave kinda bop, with a stupid vocal shout no less! I'm especially happy about the beginning where it sounds like a really sophisticated, dunno, D'n'B tune and then the stupid vocal comes it and everything devolves into chaos :) 2...

This week I tried to make two different songs in the same BPM and key. I made one on my MPC X at home, and another in the studio on the MPC Live. My idea was to merge them later, and maybe find some interesting things by doing so. It didnt turn out working so well.. =) After realising that, I just resampled all the melodic elements together and pitched everything down one octave. That became a lot...

uff this song was a challenge. I created this with ableton note many years ago while waiting at the airport. later this summer i added the vocal sample. I liked the busy drums and the relaxing synth. But I was never happy with the mix unfortunately. I have a sweet spot for the song, so i just drop it here. i hope you enjoy:) 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Mr Atlantis on Guitar... WHAT?! nah I actually write a decent amount on Guitar but just move over to Piano for comfortability but this one came around just testing out an old amp I wasn't sure still worked but I was really happy with it. I wanted it as an old fashioned man-woman duet where they find out they're in love with each other but I had no one to sing the female part so I did bot...
