I like to put my headphones on the wrong way to see what it sounds like.

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
Here’s a track that I just made within the last couple of days. This guy is special for a few reasons.
Firstly, I learned that you can freeze a track and extract the waveform from midi information. This made chopping up that synth bass WAY easier than it ever was before (I was rerouting the audio to a different track and recording it, it was a pain in the ass).
Also, this is the only track I’ve ever made purely in Ableton’s arrangement view. I’ve found that session view tends to make me create repetitive “loopy” songs, so I just tried to make it like anyone else in other DAW’s would make a track.
Also, it’s a bit of a frankenstein track in that it was something completely different in the first place… and I ended up gutting it and moving everything around.
Because of this, it doesn’t really go anywhere… it just “goes”.
Also I tried to master it and failed and probably ruined it oh god.
On the plus side, no one reads these posts. So ignorance is bliss I suppose.

Just realized there is a tumblr app for androids.
Oh man, shit just got real.

I’ve made pretty sweet progress regarding my understanding of mastering and compressors through-out the past couple of days.
It’s pretty sweet, I almost feel like I know what I’m doing.
On the flip side, I was referencing my tracks with this one
And it made me sad that I’ll never be that good regardless of how much compression I think I understand. :’(
Tracks coming soon! very soon!
To the 3 people who read this, Thanks! -
Anonymous asked: Hey, I just found you on soundcloud, I think your sound is amazing. I'm doing a course at the moment to learn more about production and sound engineering. I'm very curious about what equipment you use? Especially which synthesizers you use? As I recently ordered a Xoxbox and am also looking into some other synths. Anyhow, thanks for sharing you stuff!
I use Ableton and soft synths for everything.
The hands down best synths I’ve ever come across are U-he’s (zebra, ACE, etc).
Analog/hardware is sweet… but it’s expensive.
I’m happy to hear you enjoy my music :) it’s humbling when people actually take the time to tell me they like it. -
I had a jam I was playing around with for a day or two and tonight all the pieces fell together.
It’s very rare when that happens for me…
I put the track I just released up on reddit hoping to get some feedback and got 1 hit haha. I should really start marketing myself a bit more, I just feel like such a tool doing it.
Also, completely unrelated…
I received a monotribe for christmas.
It was pretty much the coolest present I’ve ever received. ever.

Heres a new track that I had been working on.
Burning Homes by monowolfe
All of my old stuff got deleted, so I had to start fresh. It was actually pretty nice.
This track has heavy Kettel influences because he’s what I’ve been listening to nonstop for awhile now. -
I haven’t posted here in a million years, shit’s been goin’ down.
I’m not in Japan anymore, sucks.
My girlfriend from Japan has been visiting for the past month, naice.
I’m going to posting again because I’ve been working on tracks a lot lately.
More later,
p.s.
This sums up my experiences in Japan pretty well:
